CommandableAzureFunctionController

Abstract controller that receives commands via the Azure Function protocol to operations automatically generated for commands defined in ICommandable components.

Implements: AzureFunctionController

Description

The CommandableAzureFunctionController class allows you to create abstract controllers that receive commands via the Azure Function protocols to operations automatically generated for commnads defined in ICommandable components.

Important points

  • Each command is exposed as an invoke method that receives a command’s name and parameters.

  • Commandable controllers require only 3 lines of code to implement a robust external Azure Function-based remote interface.

  • This controller is intended to work inside an Azure Function container that exploses registered actions externally.

Configuration parameters

  • dependencies:
    • controller: override for Controller dependency

References

  • *:logger:*:*:1.0: (optional) ILogger components to pass log messages.
  • *:counters:*:*:1.0: (optional) ICounters components to pass collected measurements.

Constructors

CommandableAzureFunctionController(name: str)

  • name: str - controller name.

Instance methods

_get_parameters

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

_get_parameters(context: HttpRequest): Parameters

register

Registers all actions in Azure Function.

register()

Examples

class MyCommandableAzureFunctionController(CommandableAzureFunctionController):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyCommandableAzureFunctionController, self).__init__()
        self._dependency_resolver.put(
            "controller", Descriptor("mygroup", "controller", "*", "*", "1.0")
        )

controller = MyCommandableAzureFunctionController()
controller.set_references(References.fromTuples(
    Descriptor("mygroup", "controller", "default", "default", "1.0"), controller
))

controller.open("123")
print("The Azure Function controller is running")
