local.settings.json

local.settings.json contains a required field: AppConfigurationConnectionString with the value Endpoint=https://redacted.azconfig.io;Id=redacted;Secret=redacted". This value comes from App Configuration in azure. You will need to create this resource, populate it with the values below. The medium article from analytics-vidhya above has instructions on how to do this in part-3. Once complete, in App Configuration navigate to the Access Keys tab, copy the Connection string, and paste it into the AppConfigurationConnectionString in local.settings.json.

local.settings.json contains a required field: CosmosDbConnectionString with the value AccountEndpoint=https://redacted.documents.azure.com:443/;AccountKey=redacted. Go to the Function App, Configuration tab.

Create an entry in the azure vault called CosmosDbConnectionString

Debugging Azure Functions:

You have the following options:

For multiple projects loaded at the same time: In VS Code: Open main.code-workspace then click Open Workspace. If you use this then set in local.settings.json AzureWebJobsStorage to DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=redacted;AccountKey=redacted;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net. For more info see: microsoft/vscode-azurefunctions#1121
Otherwise open Read or ReadWrite as separate projects. If you use separate projects then you can use Azurite. If you use Azurite then set in local.settings.json AzureWebJobsStorage to UseDevelopmentStorage=true. You can then start Azurite with Azurite: Start, however, with AzureWebJobsStorage configured with the DefaultEndpointsProtocol then you don't need Azurite at all.
When you build the project it should prompt you to build Read or ReadWrite. Choose whichever workspace you are in.

Debugging Blazor App:

If you are using local storage: Azurite: Start
navigate to src/AdventureBotUI/Client and run dotnet watch to start the client.

Using a Discord bot:

There is a discord bot over here that can run the client side operations to advance the quest, and allows all the interaction to stay within Discord without having to navigate outside of Discord.
