Azure Functions for Visual Studio Code (Preview)

Create, debug, manage, and deploy Azure Functions directly from VS Code. Check out this deployment tutorial to get started with the Azure Functions extension.

Prerequisites

Follow the OS-specific instructions to install the Azure Functions Core Tools:

• Windows
• Mac (Homebrew)
• Linux (Ubuntu/Debian)

Install the prerequisites for your desired language:

• JavaScript
• C#
• Java
• Python (Preview)

NOTE: You may change your azureFunctions.projectLanguage user setting to multiple other 'preview' languages not listed above. This allows you to create a project/function in that language, but we do not yet support local debugging for these languages.

Features

• Create new Function projects
• Create new Functions from a template
• Debug Function projects locally
• Deploy to Azure Function Apps
• View, create, delete, start, stop, and restart Azure Function Apps
• View, edit, upload, and download application settings
• JSON Intellisense for function.json, host.json, and proxies.json
• Stream logs from your remote Function Apps
• View and manage deployment slots

  NOTE: To enable, set azureFunctions.enableSlots to true.

• Debug Java Function App on Azure (experimental)

  NOTE: To enable, set azureFunctions.enableRemoteDebugging to true.

Deploy to Azure

OS-Specific Prerequisites

NOTE: npm can be used on all platforms. On unix platforms, you may need to specify --unsafe-perm if you are running npm with sudo. That's due to npm behavior of post install script.

Windows

Both v1 and v2 of the runtime can be installed on Windows. See here for more information on each version.

To install v1:

npm i -g azure-functions-core-tools@1

To install v2:

npm i -g azure-functions-core-tools@2

Mac

brew tap azure/functions
brew install azure-functions-core-tools

Linux

1. Set up package feed

   • Ubuntu 18.04

     wget -q https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/18.04/packages-microsoft-prod.deb
     sudo dpkg -i packages-microsoft-prod.deb

   • Ubuntu 17.10

     wget -q https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/17.10/packages-microsoft-prod.deb
     sudo dpkg -i packages-microsoft-prod.deb

   • Ubuntu 16.04 / Linux Mint 18

     wget -q https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/16.04/packages-microsoft-prod.deb
     sudo dpkg -i packages-microsoft-prod.deb

2. Install

   sudo apt-get install azure-functions-core-tools

See here for more installation options and the latest instructions.

Language-Specific Prerequisites

JavaScript

• Node 8.0+

C#

• VS Code Debugger for C#
• .NET CLI

NOTE: The default experience for C# uses class libraries (*.cs files), which provide superior performance, scalability, and versatility over C# Scripts (*.csx files). If you want to use C# Scripts, you may change your azureFunctions.projectLanguage user setting to C#Script.

Java

• VS Code Debugger for Java
• JDK 1.8
• Maven 3.0+

  NOTE: Once Maven is downloaded, you must ensure that Maven is in your PATH environment variable. You can check this by running: mvn -v.

Python

• Python 3.6.x

Managing Azure Subscriptions

If you are not signed in to Azure, you will see a "Sign in to Azure..." link. Alternatively, you can select "View->Command Palette" in the VS Code menu, and search for "Azure: Sign In".

If you don't have an Azure Account, you can sign up for one today for free and receive $200 in credits by selecting "Create a Free Azure Account..." or selecting "View->Command Palette" and searching for "Azure: Create an Account".

You may sign out of Azure by selecting "View->Command Palette" and searching for "Azure: Sign Out".

To select which subscriptions show up in the extension's explorer, click on the "Select Subscriptions..." button on any subscription node (indicated by a "filter" icon when you hover over it), or select "View->Command Palette" and search for "Azure: Select Subscriptions". Note that this selection affects all VS Code extensions that support the Azure Account and Sign-In extension.
