Setup

This project is written using Azure functions.

Local development (Visual Studio Code)

Using visual studio code, you can publish the project to Azure.

Follow the official guide or the steps below.


First time setup

  1. npm install -g azure-functions-core-tools@core
  2. "cd" into the directory and run npm install
  3. Copy local.settings.example.json and rename to local.settings.json

Running the site locally

In Visual Studio Code, press F5. Functions will automatically rebuild when changes are detected.

Debugging locally

When running the site, the debugger should automatically start.

NOTE: The debugger currently seems to crash when changes are made and the project rebuilds itself. You will need to restart the debugger after making changes (see steps below).
