Are only HTTP triggers currently supported?

[fadams]

Hello, looking through the documentation https://github.com/fnproject/docs/blob/master/fn/develop/triggers.md only HTTP triggers seem to be mentioned so this implies to me that only HTTP triggers are currently supported by Fn, is this correct?

If so are there plans to introduce additional trigger types and if that is the case is there a roadmap available? I'd also be interested to know whether there's an intention to make any trigger API pluggable 'cause there's always yet another messaging API that seems to crop up...

The ability to be triggered simply from a variety of common endpoints does seem to be a pretty important use-case for serverless though so it'd be interesting to understand where the project is heading on this.

thanks for the questions today. Have you joined our Slack yet (https://slack.fnproject.io)? that's another option to get realer-time support and also we can spam you about the bi-weekly community meetings. (https://comcall.fnproject.io). In any case, here works too.

Short answer -- yes HTTP is the only trigger at the moment and there are plans for more of them. Kafka being worked on as we speak.

As for pluggable, totally agree. I think there are a couple paths we could take towards this, but let me bring it up with a few folks and follow up.
