read only error when deploying in Google Cloud Functions

[jason79]

I have some simple code I'm trying out in Google cloud functions using your API. It's telling me "Read-only file system". Can the code be modified to run in Google Cloud Functions?

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 2073, in wsgi_app response = self.full_dispatch_request() File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 1518, in full_dispatch_request rv = self.handle_user_exception(e) File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 1516, in full_dispatch_request rv = self.dispatch_request() File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 1502, in dispatch_request return self.ensure_sync(self.view_functions[rule.endpoint])(**req.view_args) File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/functions_framework/__init__.py", line 99, in view_func return function(request._get_current_object()) File "/workspace/main.py", line 5, in entry api = Linkedin('[email protected]', 'xxxxxx') File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/linkedin_api/linkedin.py", line 37, in __init__ self.client.authenticate(username, password) File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/linkedin_api/client.py", line 98, in authenticate self._set_session_cookies(self._request_session_cookies()) File "/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/linkedin_api/client.py", line 89, in _set_session_cookies with open(settings.COOKIE_FILE_PATH, "wb") as f: OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/layers/google.python.pip/pip/lib/python3.10/site-packages/linkedin_api/.cookie.jr'

Try to set the cookie directory to a location which is readable and writable

[jason79]

how do you do that? can you show me some code?

I’d start looking for file names with “cookies” in them or related to cookie handling. And then look for code where those cookie functions are used and then apply it in your own code.

Does that work for you?

I guess i can't do it.... because I can't change the code in the cloud. Google Cloud Functions is pulling the library in through the requirements file. Does that make sense?

Linkedin(linkedin_user, linkedin_pass, cookies_dir='/tmp/cookies')

should do
