I am wondering what the best way is to use general purpose code from within cloud functions. For, example I have several cloud functions from where I want to be able to send an SMS through Twilio integration. So I was thinking to define a cloud function that does general purpose SMS sending, that I could call from another cloud function. Is this the recommended approach? I wouldn't want to repeat very similar code in several cloud functions.
I tried something like this which did not work:
Everlive.Sdk.withMasterKey().businessLogic.invokeCloudFunction('sendSms', params)
Thanks!

The best practice really depends on your use case. My feeling is that the integrated function for sending SMS provides good encapsulation so it may be used from whatever you would like without further encapsulating it in a separate function. The choice however is at the discretion of the developer.
The reason the code you supplied is not working is explained in this forum post along with another approach.
I hope this helps.
