I'm using .net 5 azure function with ServiceBus. I want to send multiple messages from trigger function.
In previous version you could usr IAsyncCollector to do something like that:
[FunctionName("HttpToServiceBusQueue")]
public static async Task<IActionResult> Run(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get", "post", Route = null)] HttpRequest req,
[ServiceBus("testqueue",Connection ="connectionString")] IAsyncCollector<string> outputEvents,
ILogger log)
{
log.LogInformation("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");
// ...
await outputEvents.AddAsync("message1");
await outputEvents.AddAsync("message2");
// ...
return new OkObjectResult(responseMessage);
}
But as I read there in documentation is no support of IAsyncCollector in newer version.
Is there any alternative ways to do it or?
Example of my code:
[Function("FileTriggerFunction")]
[ServiceBusOutput("fileupload", Connection = "ServiceBusConnectionWrite")]
public string Run(
[BlobTrigger("file-storage/{name}", Connection = "ConnectionString")] string myBlob, string name,
FunctionContext context)
{
var logger = context.GetLogger("FileTriggerFunction");
var res = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(*List of messages*);
logger.LogInformation(res);
return res;
}
Actually it separates each object of list for separate message, but I don't think that it is correct to do this in such way.
Instead of IAsyncCollector we have multiple output binding in .net 5
On this function we will give the multiple output values.
public static class MultiOutput
{
[Function("MultiOutput")]
public static MyOutputType Run([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get")] HttpRequestData req,
FunctionContext context)
{
var response = req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK);
response.WriteString("Success!");
string myQueueOutput = "some output";
return new MyOutputType()
{
Name = myQueueOutput,
HttpResponse = response
};
}
}
public class MyOutputType
{
[QueueOutput("myQueue")]
public string Name { get; set; }
public HttpResponseData HttpResponse { get; set; }
}
Refer .NET isolated process guide for .NET 5.0 in Azure Functions
Thanks # Stephen Cleary
I had tried with SeviceBus Client to send a multiple messages to a queue I am able to process it.
Refer here
Here is a sample code how to do it
[Function("MultiOutput")]
public static DispatchedMessages Run([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get")] HttpRequestData req,
FunctionContext context)
{
return new DispatchedMessages
{
Messages = new List<string> { "aaa", "bbb" } // todo: serialize
};
}
public class DispatchedMessages
{
[ServiceBusOutput(queueOrTopicName: "dest", Connection = "AzureServiceBus")]
public IEnumerable<string> Messages { get; set; }
}
}
I have the basic durable function code:
namespace dotNetDurableFunction
{
public static class Function1
{
[FunctionName("Function1")]
public static async Task<List<string>> RunOrchestrator(
[OrchestrationTrigger] IDurableOrchestrationContext context)
{
var outputs = new List<string>();
string name = context.GetInput<string>();
// Replace "hello" with the name of your Durable Activity Function.
outputs.Add(await context.CallActivityAsync<string>("Function1_Hello", name));
return outputs;
}
[FunctionName("Function1_Hello")]
public static string SayHello([ActivityTrigger] string name, ILogger log)
{
log.LogInformation($"Saying hello to {name}.");
return $"Hello {name}!";
}
[FunctionName("Function1_HttpStart")]
public static async Task<HttpResponseMessage> HttpStart(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get", "post")] HttpRequestMessage req,
[DurableClient] IDurableOrchestrationClient starter,
ILogger log)
{
//var name = await req.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
var name = "Bart";
log.LogInformation(name);
// Function input comes from the request content.
string instanceId = await starter.StartNewAsync("Function1", name);
log.LogInformation($"Started orchestration with ID = '{instanceId}'.");
return starter.CreateCheckStatusResponse(req, instanceId);
}
}
}
what i would like to achieve is to call the http trigger with passing the parameter name like that:
http://localhost:7071/api/Function1_HttpStart?name=Josh
and then pass the parameter from http trigger, to orchestrator and finally to the activity called by orchestrator.
Right now in this code, the output is Saying hello to . so it looks like it doesn't pass the parameter through the code, or the parameter is not being read from the request url.
Is there any way to achieve this?
You can use the following code to receive name:
var name = req.RequestUri.Query.Split("=")[1];
The following code is used to receive the request body in the post request, it cannot receive the parameters in the get request.
var content = req.Content;
string jsonContent = content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
With the help of a few samples available on the internet, I am able to develop a ASP.NET Core Hosted Blazor Application.
But While Calling an api as follow
private async Task Refresh()
{
li.Clear();
li = await Http.GetJsonAsync<SampleModel[]>("/api/Sample/GetList");
StateHasChanged();
}
private async Task Save()
{
await Http.SendJsonAsync(HttpMethod.Post, "api/Sample/Add", obj);
await Refresh();
}
In the line below:
await Http.SendJsonAsync(HttpMethod.Post, "api/Sample/Add", obj);
How can I check status code of this HTTP call?
If there occurs any problem in API call than I want to display a message.
But when I do:
HttpResponseMessage resp = await Http.SendJsonAsync(HttpMethod.Post, "api/Sample/Add", obj);
Then it says:
can not cast void to HttpResponse Message
I am using below methods:
GetJsonAsync() // For HttpGet
SendJsonAsync() // For HttpPost And Put
DeleteAsync() // For HttpDelete
How can I verify the status code here ?
The thing is that you are using blazor's HttpClientJsonExtensions extensions,
Which internally usually calls
public static Task SendJsonAsync(this HttpClient httpClient, HttpMethod method, string requestUri, object content)
=> httpClient.SendJsonAsync<IgnoreResponse>(method, requestUri, content);
public static async Task<T> SendJsonAsync<T>(this HttpClient httpClient, HttpMethod method, string requestUri, object content)
{
var requestJson = JsonUtil.Serialize(content);
var response = await httpClient.SendAsync(new HttpRequestMessage(method, requestUri)
{
Content = new StringContent(requestJson, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json")
});
if (typeof(T) == typeof(IgnoreResponse))
{
return default;
}
else
{
var responseJson = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
return JsonUtil.Deserialize<T>(responseJson);
}
}
The GET requests use HttpContext.GetStringAsync internally
public static async Task<T> GetJsonAsync<T>(this HttpClient httpClient, string requestUri)
{
var responseJson = await httpClient.GetStringAsync(requestUri);
return JsonUtil.Deserialize<T>(responseJson);
}
while the normal HttpClient API still exists and can be used just as in those extension methods.
Those extension methods simply wrap the default HttpClient calls.
If you desire to have access to response status you would need to write your own wrappers that expose the desired functionality or just use the default API
Try this:
var response = await Http.SendJsonAsync <HttpResponseMessage>(HttpMethod.Post, "api/Sample/Add", obj);
I have this C# controller which preforming a different SQL functions by string receive as input.
public HttpResponseMessage GetFunction(string SQLstring)
{
HttpResponseMessage response = new HttpResponseMessage()
{
Content = new StringContent(SQLFunctions.SQLsyncFunctionGet(SQLstring), System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, "application/json")
};
return response;
}
I'm trying to rebuild it in Async method:
First I change the SQL sync function to async without any problem:
public async Task<string> SQLasyncFunctionGET(string SQLString)
How do I change the GetFunction class to activate it in the Web API that I've built?
public async Task<IHttpActionResult> GetFunction(string SQLString)
{
var content = await ???????????????
return ok(content);
}
I'm not that familiar with this stack, so I don't remember if you can return Task<HttpResponseMessage> or not. But if you can, this should work:
public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> GetFunction(string SQLstring)
{
HttpResponseMessage response = new HttpResponseMessage()
{
Content = new StringContent(await SQLFunctions.SQLsyncFunctionGet(SQLstring), System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, "application/json")
};
return response;
}
I'm trying to do a simple Azure Function to learn about it. There will be 3 functions:
1 function to insert a row into a table of a database. This table will contain the current date and a string parameters typed by the user and passed by GET.
1 function similar to the previous one, but passing the parameter by POST.
1 function to read the table and show its content.
I've been able to do the first and the third ones. But I can't pass the parameter by POST. I've looked for examples but I couldn't run them with success. The client app is a Windows Forms one.
Could anyone show me an example anout how to pass parameters by POST to the function and how to read them?
Thank's in advance
EDIT:
Here's the code to pass the parameters by GET (this is working fine):
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string cadena = lsql1.Text + "?notas=" + tNotas.Text;
try
{
HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(cadena);
HttpWebResponse res = (HttpWebResponse)req.GetResponse();
if (res.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
MessageBox.Show("Grabado");
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show(res.StatusDescription);
}
}catch (WebException ex)
{
using (Stream s = ex.Response.GetResponseStream())
{
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(s);
string text = sr.ReadToEnd();
text = text.Substring(1, text.Length - 2);
sr.Close();
text = text.Replace("\\", "");
text = "{" + text + "}";
Error mensajeError = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Error>(text);
MessageBox.Show(mensajeError.ExceptionMessage);
}
}
}
And here's the code to receive it and do the insert (this is working too):
[FunctionName("sql1")]
public static async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Run(HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log)
{
try
{
log.Info("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");
var cnnString = "Server=SERVIDOR;Database=base_prueba;User ID =azure;Password=0000;Trusted_Connection=False;Encrypt=False;";
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(cnnString))
{
connection.Open();
SqlCommand cmd = connection.CreateCommand();
DateTime fecha = DateTime.Today;
string notas = req.GetQueryNameValuePairs()
.FirstOrDefault(q => string.Compare(q.Key, "notas", true) == 0)
.Value;
// insert a log to the database
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Prueba_Azure (fecha, notas) VALUES ('" + fecha.ToString() + "', '" + notas + "')";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
// Get request body
dynamic data = await req.Content.ReadAsAsync<object>();
return name == req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, "Done");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
HttpResponseMessage res = req.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, ex);
return res;
}
}
What I'm looking for is to to this by POST
In case google took you here, this is how it's done in March 2019 (Azure Functions v3):
public static async void Run(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Function, "post", Route = null)]
HttpRequest req,
ILogger log)
{
var content = await new StreamReader(req.Body).ReadToEndAsync();
MyClass myClass = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyClass>(content);
}
To get the request content from the request body(post request), you could use req.Content.ReadAsAsync method. Here is the code sample.
Sample request body.
{
"name": "Azure"
}
Define a class to deserialize the post data.
public class PostData
{
public string name { get;set; }
}
Get the post data and display it.
PostData data = await req.Content.ReadAsAsync<PostData>();
log.Info("name:" + data.name);
Client side code to send the post request.
HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("function-url");
req.Method = "POST";
req.ContentType = "application/json";
Stream stream = req.GetRequestStream();
string json = "{\"name\": \"Azure\" }";
byte[] buffer = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(json);
stream.Write(buffer,0, buffer.Length);
HttpWebResponse res = (HttpWebResponse)req.GetResponse();
If you are using System.Text.Json, you can read the POST data in one line:
public static async Task Run(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Function, "post", Route = null)]
HttpRequest req,
ILogger log)
{
MyClass myClass = await JsonSerializer.DeserializeAsync<MyClass>(req.Body);
}
If you are using Newtonsoft.Json, see the answer by Allen Zhang.
For passing parameters as POST request, you need to do following things:
Make Json model of the parameters that u need to pass,ex:
{"UserProfile":{ "UserId":"xyz1","FirstName":"Tom","LastName":"Hank" }}
Post your data model using client like POSTMAN
Now you will get the posted content in HttpRequestMessage body, sample code is as follows:
[FunctionName("TestPost")]
public static HttpResponseMessage POST([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Function, "put", "post", Route = null)]HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log)
{
try
{
//create redis connection and database
var RedisConnection = RedisConnectionFactory.GetConnection();
var serializer = new NewtonsoftSerializer();
var cacheClient = new StackExchangeRedisCacheClient(RedisConnection, serializer);
//read json object from request body
var content = req.Content;
string JsonContent = content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
var expirytime = DateTime.Now.AddHours(Convert.ToInt16(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["ExpiresAt"]));
SessionModel ObjModel = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SessionModel>(JsonContent);
bool added = cacheClient.Add("RedisKey", ObjModel, expirytime); //store to cache
return req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, "RedisKey");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return req.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, "an error has occured");
}
}
You can just supply your custom data class as a parameter to the HttpTrigger argument. This way you don't have to mess with the json deserialization yourself:
public async Task<IActionResult> UpdateAccount(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "post", Route = "api/v1/accounts/{id:guid}")]
SomeData someData, // <----- Post body ends up here automatically
HttpRequest req,
Guid id,
ILogger log)
{
log.LogInformation ("Got POST with " + someData.Foo);
}
public class SomeData
{
public string Foo { get; set; } = null!;
}
The query string (name/value pairs) is by default sent in the HTTP message body of a POST request and not as query string. The GetQueryNameValuePairs method will parse the query string and will by default not work with POST request.
For the POST request you could use something similar to this:
var content = request.Content;
string contentInString = content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
You need to attach data to the body of the post request and process it properly:
public static async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Run(HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log) {
// This reads your post request body into variable "data"
string data = await req.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
// Here you can process json into an object
dynamic parsed = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(data);
return exitstring == null
? req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, "Something went wrong, sorry")
: req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK);
}
You can find a slightly different example here and the exact example here.
It can be done in following way with custom class
Azure Function
[FunctionName("PostParameterFunction")]
public static async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Run([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "get", "post", Route = null)]HttpRequestMessage req, ILogger log)
{
log.LogInformation("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");
try
{
// Convert all request perameter into Json object
var content = req.Content;
string jsonContent = content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
dynamic requestPram = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RequestModel>(jsonContent);
// Validate the required param
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(requestPram.FirstName))
{
return req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, "Please enter First Name!");
}
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(requestPram.LastName))
{
return req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, "Please enter Last Name!");
}
//Create object for partner Model to bind the response on it
RequestModel objRequestModel = new RequestModel();
objRequestModel.FirstName = requestPram.FirstName;
objRequestModel.LastName = requestPram.LastName;
//Return Request Model
return req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, objRequestModel);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, "Cannot Create Request! Reason: {0}", string.Format(ex.Message));
}
}
Request Class:
public class RequestModel
{
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
}
Request Input:
{
"FirstName": "Kiron",
"LastName":"Test"
}
PostMan Output Example:
I have done a very simple example to get data using POST request in Azure Function App. Please find the following example.
using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Http;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs;
using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.Http;
using Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Host;
namespace MyFunctions
{
public static class MyFunctionsOperations
{
[FunctionName("MyFunctionsOperations")]
public static async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Run([HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Function, "post", Route = null)]HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log)
{
log.Info("C# HTTP trigger function processed a request.");
var headers = req.Headers;
string collection = headers.GetValues("collection").First(); //getting parameter from header
CosmosdbOperation obj = new CosmosdbOperation();
dynamic data = await req.Content.ReadAsAsync<object>(); //getting body content
Boolean response = await obj.MyFunctionExecution(data.ToString(), collection);
return (response)
? req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, "Please pass a proper argument in the request body")
: req.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, "Operation successfully executed..");
}
}
}
I like the WebApi approach of using [FromBody] attribute, so using IBinding I made my own. Now I can just pass in the object.
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Parameter | AttributeTargets.ReturnValue)]
[Binding]
public sealed class FromBodyAttribute : Attribute
{
}
public class FromBodyBinding : IBinding
{
private readonly ILogger logger;
public FromBodyBinding(ILogger logger)
{
this.logger = logger;
}
public Task<IValueProvider> BindAsync(BindingContext context)
{
// Get the HTTP request
var request = context.BindingData["req"] as DefaultHttpRequest;
return Task.FromResult<IValueProvider>(new FromBodyValueProvider(request, logger));
}
public bool FromAttribute => true;
public Task<IValueProvider> BindAsync(object value, ValueBindingContext context)
{
return null;
}
public ParameterDescriptor ToParameterDescriptor() => new ParameterDescriptor();
}
public class FromBodyBindingProvider : IBindingProvider
{
private readonly ILogger logger;
public FromBodyBindingProvider(ILogger logger)
{
this.logger = logger;
}
public Task<IBinding> TryCreateAsync(BindingProviderContext context)
{
IBinding binding = new FromBodyBinding(this.logger);
return Task.FromResult(binding);
}
}
public class FromBodyValueProvider : IValueProvider
{
private HttpRequest request;
private ILogger logger;
public FromBodyValueProvider(HttpRequest request, ILogger logger)
{
this.request = request;
this.logger = logger;
}
public async Task<object> GetValueAsync()
{
try
{
string requestBody = await new StreamReader(this.request.Body).ReadToEndAsync();
object result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(requestBody);
return result;
}
catch (System.Exception ex)
{
this.logger.LogCritical(ex, "Error deserializing object from body");
throw ex;
}
}
public Type Type => typeof(object);
public string ToInvokeString() => string.Empty;
}
public class BindingExtensionProvider : IExtensionConfigProvider
{
private readonly ILogger logger;
public BindingExtensionProvider(ILogger<Startup> logger)
{
this.logger = logger;
}
public void Initialize(ExtensionConfigContext context)
{
// Creates a rule that links the attribute to the binding
context.AddBindingRule<FromBodyAttribute>().Bind(new FromBodyBindingProvider(this.logger));
}
}
Then inside your Startup.cs file, add the binding.
public class Startup : IWebJobsStartup
{
public void Configure(IWebJobsBuilder builder)
{
JsonConvert.DefaultSettings = () =>
{
return new JsonSerializerSettings()
{
ContractResolver = new DefaultContractResolver
{
NamingStrategy = new CamelCaseNamingStrategy()
},
Formatting = Formatting.Indented
};
};
builder.Services.AddLogging();
builder.AddExtension<BindingExtensionProvider>();
}
}
Now you can just have a regular old class, just like WebApi!
[FunctionName("MyFunction")]
public async Task<IActionResult> Run(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Anonymous, "post", Route = null)] HttpRequest req,
[Binding.FromBody] dynamic data) // or you can change 'dynamic' to some class
{
string username = data?.username;
...
}
Here is the point --> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-bindings-http-webhook-trigger?tabs=in-process%2Cfunctionsv2&pivots=programming-language-csharp
[FunctionName("LuckyNumber")]
public static async Task<IActionResult> Run(
[HttpTrigger(
AuthorizationLevel.Function,
"get", "post",
Route = "max/{max:int?}/min/{min:int?}")] HttpRequest req,
int? max, <-- Parameter max
int? min, <-- Parameter min
ILogger log)
{
int? maxInternal = max;
int? minInternal = min;
}
PS: I´m using .NET 6
We can do it by just one line code using System.Text.Json.
public static async void Run(
[HttpTrigger(AuthorizationLevel.Function, "post", Route = null)]
HttpRequest req,
ILogger log)
{
MyClass myClass = await JsonSerializer.DeserializeAsync<MyClass>(req.Body);
}
