To simplify trying out the Functions project, you can run this sample console app which provides the following functionality:
- A data generator to load the system. Note, if you use this, it is advised that you have deployed your Cosmos database with Autoscale.
- The ability to simimulate logging in as different users to view/approve tasks.
- A wizard that will allow you to create a task.
- Open the DemoClient.csproj in VS Code of Visual Studio.
- Rename sample.settings.json as local.settings.json.
- Edit local.settings.json and replace with the url of your functions. By default, it contains the urls of the functions running locally.
- Run the app and navigate through your choice of behavior.
- The data generator is designed to simulate a large of amount of tasks being generated and completed. This is helpful when using the analytical store for Cosmos with Synapse.
