How can we create another run.csx and call the existing function from one csx file to another in an Azure Function App?

You can just write another file, e.g. lib.csx and load it via #load "lib.csx" in your main script file. See here for the docs

As an example, place this into your run.csx

#load "lib.csx"

using System;

public static void Run(TimerInfo myTimer, TraceWriter log)
{
    log.Info($"C# Timer trigger function executed at: {DateTime.Now}");    
    log.Info(doubleTheInt(5).ToString());
}

and that into a lib.csx 

using System;

public static int doubleTheInt(int x) {
    return x+x;
}

and it should output 10 in the log

  • I assume "lib.csx" gets created and saved like any other .csx, but how do you indicate where it should get stored? – Randy Minder May 02 '18 at 17:13

    @RandyMinder I am not sure if I understand you correctly but `#load` can work with relative paths like `"..\shared\lib.csx"` (see e.g. the [docs](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-reference-csharp#reusing-csx-code)) – DAXaholic May 03 '18 at 04:42
