functions-framework breaks import paths for the google-cloud-functions SDK package

[jyork03]

functions-framework is incompatible with the google-cloud-functions SDK package, unless google-cloud-functions is installed with a separate install command AFTER functions-framework is installed.

As I understand it, this is not possible to do within the context of Google Cloud Functions, where packages get installed automatically from the requirements.txt file.

The reason is that functions-framework overwrites several important files in google/cloud/functions_v1, google/cloud/functions, and google/cloud/functions_v1beta2 that are required to make the google-cloud-functions SDK package work as intended.

For example: functions-framework overwrites google/cloud/functions_v1/__init__.py upon install, which breaks the ability to import packages in the normal, documented ways.

Steps to reproduce:

1. create a new python 3.9 environment:

2. Run: pip install google-cloud-functions==1.6.0 functions-framework==3.0.0

3. Then execute:

   from google.cloud import functions_v1
   functions_v1.CloudFunctionsServiceClient()

This will raise: AttributeError: module 'google.cloud.functions_v1' has no attribute 'CloudFunctionsServiceClient'

Edit: This means that none of the sample code in the docs will work, since they all rely on the imported members from google/cloud/functions_v1/__init__.py. Example below: https://cloud.google.com/python/docs/reference/cloudfunctions/latest/google.cloud.functions_v1.services.cloud_functions_service.CloudFunctionsServiceClient#google_cloud_functions_v1_services_cloud_functions_service_CloudFunctionsServiceClient_create_function

For anyone that might be stuck on this in the meantime, you can import the client and functions directly:

from google.cloud.functions_v1.services.cloud_functions_service import CloudFunctionsServiceClient
from google.cloud.functions_v1.types.functions import EventTrigger, CreateFunctionRequest, CloudFunction

Here is how i quickly fixed this problem for myself (with no hassle), for anyone who finds this bug in the wild:

pip3 uninstall functions-framework
pip3 uninstall google-cloud-functions
pip3 install google-cloud-functions
