Lab 6: Deploy a local function project to an Azure Functions app

Task 1: Deploy using the Azure Functions Core Tools

1. On the taskbar, select the Windows Terminal icon.

2. Run the following command to change the current directory to the $HOME\training-az204\Labs\02\Starter\func directory:

    cd $HOME\training-az204\Labs\02\Starter\func
   

3. From command prompt, run the following command to login to the Azure Command-Line Interface (CLI):

    az login
   

4. In the Microsoft Edge browser window, enter the name and password of the Microsoft or Azure Active Directory account you are using in this lab, and then select Sign in.

5. Return to the currently open Windows Terminal window. Wait for the sign-in process to finish.

6. From the command prompt, run the following command to publish the function app project (replace the <function-app-name> placeholder with the name of the function app you created earlier in this lab):

    func azure functionapp publish <function-app-name>
   

   Note: For example, if your Function App name is funclogicstudent, your command would be func azure functionapp publish funclogicstudent. You can review the documentation to [publish the local function app project][azure-functions-core-tools-publish-azure] using the Azure Functions Core Tools.

7. Wait for the deployment to finalize before you move forward with the lab.

8. Close the currently running Windows Terminal application.

Task 2: Validate deployment

1. On the taskbar, select the Microsoft Edge icon, and select the tab that displays the Azure portal (https://portal.azure.com).
2. On the Azure portal's navigation pane, select the Resource groups link.
3. On the Resource groups blade, select the Serverless resource group that you created previously in this lab.
4. On the Serverless blade, select the funclogic[yourname] function app that you created previously in this lab.
5. On the Function App blade, select the Functions option in the Functions section.
6. On the Functions pane, select the existing GetSettingInfo function.
7. In the Function blade, select the Code + Test option in the Developer section.
8. In the function editor, select Test/Run.
9. In the automatically displayed pane, in the HTTP method drop-down list, select GET.
10. Select Run to test the function.

11. In the HTTP response content, review the results of the test run. The JSON content should now include the following code:

     {
         "version": "0.2.4",
         "root": "/usr/libexec/mews_principal/",
         "device": {
             "id": "21e46d2b2b926cba031a23c6919"
         },
         "notifications": {
             "email": "joseph.price@contoso.com",
             "phone": "(425) 555-0162 x4151"
         }
     }
    

Review

In this exercise, you deployed a local function project to Azure Functions and validated that the functions work in Azure.
