About this Repo
This repo illustrates the basics of running a FastAPI application on Azure Functions.
Much of the code here has been borrowed/copied from: https://github.com/tonybaloney/ants-azure-demos/tree/master/fastapi-functions
To Deploy To Azure Functions
These steps assume that you are using the Azure Functions VS Code Extension.
Step 1: Create an Azure Account.
Step 2: Install the Azure Functions VS Code Extension.
Step 3: Open your project in VSCode. VSCode will automatically create a virtual environment for you and install all dependencies.
Step 4: Run your Azure Function locally:
- Just press F5!
Verify that your app is running by going to: http://localhost:7071/user/1. You should see a JSON response with some fake data. For example:
{
"user_id":1,
"username":"AdianaRestrict_1858",
"firstname":"Beau",
"lastname":"Lancaster"
}
Step 5: Deploy your function to Azure:
- Open the VSCode Command Pallette.
- Run "Azure Functions: Deploy to Function App.
- Follow the promps and wait a few minutes for everything to deploy.
Verify that your app is running by going to: https://<APP_NAME>.azurewebsites.net/user/1. You should see similar fake data as shown in Step 4.
