FunctionsAsWebProject

Example of a Web App project for Azure Functions

Prerequisites

Install the Azure Functions CLI, either through Visual Studio Tools for Azure Functions or the Azure Functions CLI from npm azure-functions-cli.

Local debugging in Visual Studio

Since the project is a Web App, by default F5 will launch IIS Express. With a few simple changes to the project settings, you can run the Azure Functions CLI and attach a debugger:

• Right-click FunctionsAsWebProject and open Properties.

• In the Web tab, choose Start External Program

• For the program path, enter the path to func.exe for the Azure Functions CLI.

  • If you've installed the Visual Studio Tools for Azure Functions, the path will look something like C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Azure.Functions.Cli\1.0.0-beta.93\func.exe
  • If you've installed the Azure Functions CLI through NPM, the path will be something like C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\azure-functions-cli\bin\func.exe

• For Command line arguments set host start

• For Working directory, specify the root of the project CoderCardsWebsite on your machine.
