Notes

Let's get these over with

• Create "NewAppointmentHandler" azure function.

  • This is an HTTP triggered function (HTTP POST), which will accept new appointment requests.
  • If the request is valid it will be sent to a new-appointments queue. Otherwise it will send an error status to the caller.

• Create "Scheduler" azure function.

  • This function will be triggered when a message is arrived to the "new-appointments" queue.
  • It will check whether if a particular barber is available and if it is it will schedule an appointment, or will reject it.
  • If an appointment is made it will be sent to the blob container "scheduled-appointments" and if it's rejected it will be in a container called "rejected-requests".

• Unit Testing to the "Schedule" function.

  • Refer the nuget package (AzureFunctions.AutoFac)
  • Refactor the function.
  • Add a unit test class
  • Add the test methods.

• Deploy the function to the cloud using VS2017

  • Create a Function App in the Azure portal first.
  • Right-click publish the function app from VS2017.

• Create CI/CD

  • Create a project in Azure Devops
  • Create a build pipeline.
    • Show the important steps. Especially about the preference setting which you need to make in the devops portal.
  • Checkin some code and show the build happening.
  • Create a release pipeline
    • Show the important things to setup and notice in here.
    • Set up the release to happen once a successful build is done.
    • Add some code and show case this.
