• Fix to correctly populate HTTP request cookies (#642)
• Support for implicit extension registration (#662)

Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker 1.5.1

Release notes

• Added support for binding of Guid and Guid? type parameters (#582)
• Changed the order configuration sources are registered (This is a potentially breaking change) (#583)
  • Command line arguments now take precedence over environment variables by default

Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker 1.4.0

Release notes

• Implementation of new (Track 2) Azure Storage SDK extensions (Blobs and Queues)
• Update to HttpHeadersCollection to bypass header validation (#504)
• Updated Service Bus extension to use track 2 SDK
• Implementation of the SendGrid extension
• Updated Event Hubs extension to use track 2 SDK
• Fixed command-line parsing in self-contained builds (#528)
• Additional WriteAsJsonAsync overloads to control HTTP status codes (#507)
• Fix file properties/permissions for self-contained zip deployments (#529)

Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker 1.3.0

Release notes

• Fixed bugs causing large input payloads to fail.
• Fixed a bug causing a crash when attempting to log before the gRPC communication to Functions Host is set up.
• Hosting configuration now applies AZURE_FUNCTIONS_ prefixed environment variables by default.
  This is a behavior change that provides the expected behavior when debugging locally or adding the variable to an environment.

1.1.0

Packages

• Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker: 1.1.0
• Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Sdk: 1.0.2

Release notes

• The environment variables configuration provider is now registered by default
  • Warning: this is a potentially breaking change, but given this is the desirable behavior for
    local and hosted scenarios, the default registration call has been updated. The ConfigureFunctionsWorker remains unaltered and provides the ability to opt-out of this behavior.
• API to enable inline middleware registration
• Added TimerInfo definition allowing for binding information with a built-in type
• WriteBytesAsync API for HttpResponseData
• Updates/enhancements to tooling JSON output
  • Warning: It's required to have azure-functions-core-tools >= 3.0.3442 to debug using func host start --dotnet-isolated-debug
• IFunctionActivator and supporting APIs revised and made public
  • Enables custom handling of function class instantiation
• Fixed issue with proxy medatada handling
• Other fixes and enhancements

Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker 1.0.0

Release notes

The Azure Functions .NET Worker is now GA!

There were many changes between the last preview and this release, and many of the changes were driven by your feedback. Thank you!

Here are some notable changes:

• Public API surface changes
  • These are breaking changes, but they provide a more intuitive experience
    • New, simplified hosting and registration set of APIs
    • New APIs to work against FunctionContext
    • Access to function invocation binding data through FunctionContext
    • Enhancements to binding model
    • New package layering, offering additional flexibility and enabling future extensibility and testing scenarios
• Local debugging enhancements
• API to enable simple registration of middleware
• Added support for batched trigger events (#205)
  • The following services allow trigger events to be batched:
    • Event Hubs (batched by default)
    • Service Bus (set IsBatched = true in trigger attribute)
    • Kafka (set IsBatched = true in trigger attribute)
  • To read batched event data in function code:
    • Use array ([]), IList, ICollection, or IEnumerable if event data is string, byte[], or ReadOnlyMemory<byte> (example: string[]).
      • Note: ReadOnlyMemory<byte> is the more performant option to read binary data, especially for large payloads.
    • Use a class that implements IEnumerable or IEnumerable<T> for serializable event data (example: List<MyData>).
• Several local build and deployment enhancements, including support for self-contained deployments
• Development time enhancements with Analyzers
• Fail function execution if the requested parameter cannot be converted to the specified type (#216)
• Fix issue with referencing extensions that have native dependencies:
  • To address this, a default dependency on .NET Core 3.1 SDK was added when targeting Azure Functions 3.0. Note: This dependency can be overridden by setting a build property <_FunctionsExtensionTargetFramework>netstandard2.0<_FunctionsExtensionTargetFramework/> but this is only recommended if only using bindings without native dependencies.
