I am trying to deploy a google cloud function, I started by just adding the initial requirements to my index.js file:

// Import the Google Cloud client libraries

const nl = require('@google-cloud/language')();

const speech = require('@google-cloud/speech')();

const storage = require('@google-cloud/storage')();

But I get the following message when deploying:

Detailed stack trace: TypeError: require(...) is not a function

This only happens with the @google-cloud/speech and @google-cloud/language modules, the @google-cloud/storage module is loaded fine as a function (I tested by commenting the first two).

Any advise will be greatly appreciated.

Google cloud function are nodejs modules so the syntax is same as nodejs syntax.

Regarding your problem:

you have to write

const storage = require('@google-cloud/storage');

(without () at the end of each statement)

So the correct declaration will be:

// Import the Google Cloud client libraries

const nl = require('@google-cloud/language');

const speech = require('@google-cloud/speech');

const storage = require('@google-cloud/storage');

I hope this helps.

It tells you that whatever you required is not a function and therefore can't be invoked with ()

if you look here : https://www.npmjs.com/package/@google-cloud/language#using-the-client-library
you see a service object with multiple class returning functions is being returned, so you should set it up like this:

const nl = require('@google-cloud/language');

const language = new nl.LanguageServiceClient();
