I created a quick example to resize an image here https://github.com/rabbah/functions/tree/master/sharp. You can deploy this from App Platform or with the CLI using doctl serverless (download here).

git clone git@github.com:rabbah/functions.git
doctl serverless deploy functions/sharp --remote-build
doctl serverless functions get sample/hello --url

Open the URL in your browser and add a query parameter url=https://images.pexels.com/photos/86405/penguin-funny-blue-water-86405.jpeg to see the resized result.
