AzureFunction

Description

The AzureFunction class allows you to create an Abstract Azure Function that acts as a container to instantiate and run components and expose them via an external entry point.

Importan points

• When handling calls, the “cmd” parameter determines the action that shall be called, while the other parameters are passed to the action itself.

• The container configuration for this Azure Function is stored in "./config/config.yml" file. But this path can be overriden by CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

References

• *:logger:*:*:1.0: (optional) ILogger components to pass log messages
• *:counters:*:*:1.0: (optional) ICounters components to pass collected measurements
• *:service:azure-function:*:1.0: (optional) IAzureFunctionController services to handle action requests.
• *:service:commandable-azure-function:*:1.0: (optional) IAzureFunctionController services to handle action requests.

Constructors

NewAzureFunctionWithParams

Creates a new instance of this Azure Function.

NewAzureFunctionWithParams(name string, description string) *AzureFunction

• name: string - (optional) container’s name (accessible via ContextInfo)
• description: string - (optional) container’s description (accessible via ContextInfo)

NewAzureFunction

Creates a new instance of this Azure Function function.

NewAzureFunction() *AzureFunction

InheritAzureFunction

InheritAzureFunction creates new instance of AzureFunction

InheritAzureFunction(overrides IAzureFunctionOverrides) *AzureFunction

• overrides: IAzureFunctionOverrides - instance thath overrides methods.

InheritAzureFunction

InheritAzureFunction creates new instance of AzureFunction

InheritAzureFunctionWithParams(overrides IAzureFunctionOverrides, name string, description string) *AzureFunction

• overrides: IAzureFunctionOverrides - instance thath overrides methods.
• name: string - (optional) container’s name (accessible via ContextInfo)
• description: string - (optional) container’s description (accessible via ContextInfo)

Fields

Instance methods

Execute

Executes this Azure Function and returns the result. This method can be overloaded in child classes if they need to change the default behavior

(c *AzureFunction) Execute(res http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request)

• res: http.ResponseWriter - context the context parameters (or function arguments)
• req: *http.Request - the result of the function execution.

GetCommand

Returns command from Azure Function context. This method can be overloaded in child classes

(c *AzureFunction) GetCommand(r *http.Request) (string, error)

• r: *http.Request - Azure Function context
• returns: (string, error) - Returns command from context

GetTraceId

Returns traceId from Azure Function context. This method can be overloaded in child classes

(c *AzureFunction) GetTraceId(r *http.Request) string

• r: *http.Request - Azure Function context
• returns: string - Returns traceId from context

GetHandler

Return plugin function

(c *AzureFunction) GetHandler() http.HandlerFunc

• returns: http.HandlerFunc - plugin function

Instrument

Adds instrumentation to log calls and measures call time. It returns a Timing object that is used to end the time measurement.

(c *AzureFunction) Instrument(ctx context.Context, context IContext, name string) *InstrumentTiming

• context: IContext - (optional) a context to trace execution through a call chain.
• name: string - method’s name.
• returns: *InstrumentTiming - Timing object to end the time measurement.

Open

Opens the component.

(c *AzureFunction) Open(ctx context.Context, context IContext) error

• ctx: context.Context - operation context.
• context: IContext - (optional) a context to trace execution through a call chain.

RegisterAction

Registers an action in this Azure Function.

Note: This method has been deprecated. Use AzureFunctionService instead.

(c *AzureFunction) RegisterAction(cmd string, schema *Schema, action http.HandlerFunc)

• cmd: string - a action/command name.
• schema: *Schema - a validation schema to validate received parameters.
• action: http.HandlerFunc - an action function that is called when action is invoked.

Register

Registers all actions in this Azure Function.

Note: Overloading of this method has been deprecated. Use AzureFunctionService instead.

(c *AzureFunction) Register()

RegisterServices

Registers all Azure Function services in the container.

(c *AzureFunction) RegisterServices()

Run

Runs this Azure Function, loads container configuration, instantiate components and manage their lifecycle, makes this function ready to access action calls.

(c *AzureFunction) Run(ctx context.Context)

• ctx: context.Context - operation context.

SetReferences

Sets references to dependent components.

SetReferences(ctx context.Context, references IReferences)

• ctx: context.Context - operation context.
• references: IReferences - references to locate the component’s dependencies.

Examples

type MyAzureFunction struct {
	*containers.AzureFunction
}

func NewMyAzureFunction() *MyAzureFunction {
	c := MyAzureFunction{}
	c.AzureFunction = containers.NewAzureFunctionWithParams("mygroup", "MyGroup Azure Function")

	return &c
}

...

AzureFunction := NewMyAzureFunction()
AzureFunction.Run(ctx)
fmt.Println("MyAzureFunction is started")
