Functionbeat GCP pub/sub requiring storage entry point when only pub/sub is enabled

[chipzzz]

Deploying functionbeat on GCP with entry point RunPubSub returns an error complaining about storage entry point, which I am not using.

I get the following error upon deploy

Deployment failure:
Build failed: # functions.local/app/main
src/functions.local/app/main/main.go:43:21: undefined: storage.RunPubSub; Error ID: 2f5e35a0

The problem is ,as I noticed it, Functionbeat is requiring storage entry point. I am NOT using the gcp storage functionality, I am using pub/sub functionality with RunPubSub. Why is it requiring the storage entry point? I am not able to provide multiple entry points to my knowledge.

• Version: 7.13.4 ( noticed on others as well)
• Operating System: LINUX X86_64
• Discuss Forum URL: https://discuss.elastic.co/t/functionbeat-gcp-pub-sub-requiring-storage-entry-point-when-only-pub-sub-is-enabled/295254
• Steps to Reproduce:

1. Package functionbeat using LINUX X86_64 7.13.4 up using the following command

./functionbeat  export function pubsub -c functionbeat-file.yml

2. Go into GCP function and go through creating a cloud function steps, upload the packaed zip,
3. add entry point "RunPubSub"
4. Select Golang version 1.16 in order to avoid another bug (functionbeat 7.12 can't deploy -- unknown field 'VerifyConnection' in struct literal of type tls.Config #24925). <<< Selecting 1.13 will yield this error. Keep in mind the runtime of the function is GoLang 1.13 (could this be the problem?)

 ./functionbeat export function pubsub |grep runtime
    runtime: go113

functionbeat.provider.gcp.storage_name: "some-bucket"

I wonder even if I manage to get this to run if I will run into this

recompiled the functionbeat binary as goLang 1.16 and repackaged, same error.

We endeavor to address Functionbeat use cases via the new Serverless Forwarder project (https://github.com/elastic/elastic-serverless-forwarder)with a better integration with serverless functionality provided by major cloud providers. Enhancements to the current Functionbeat will therefore be limited.
