5.0.0-beta.1 (2020-11-10)
This is the first preview of the next generation of Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extension.Storage
which has been integrated with latest Azure Storage SDK that follows the Azure SDK Design Guidelines for .NET which provide a number of core capabilities that are shared amongst all Azure SDKs, including the intuitive Azure Identity library, an HTTP Pipeline with custom policies, error-handling, distributed tracing, and much more.
The Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extension.Storage.Blobs
offers drop-in replacement for scenarios where Blob
and BlobTrigger
attributes were bound to BCL types or user defined POCOs. Advanced scenarios like binding to Azure Storage Blobs SDK types or using BlobsOptions
may require code changes.
This is a Public Preview version, so expect incompatible changes in subsequent releases as we improve the product. To provide feedback, please submit an issue in our Azure SDK for .NET GitHub repo.
Major changes and features
- The extension has been split per storage service, i.e.
Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extension.Storage.Blobs
has been created. - The extension uses V12 Azure Storage SDK.
- Added support for token credential authentication using Azure.Identity library, including support for managed identity and client secret credentials.
- Simplified parallelism control through single
BlobsOptions.MaxDegreeOfParallelism
property. - The
