I am trying to store the time stamp information in durable entities and retrieve it every time a trigger fired. Here is how I am doing it. I want the timestamp value set by the current execution to be available for the next trigger. But when the control reaches "string prevTS = await context.CallEntityAsync(entityId, "Get");" to goes back to start of the function again. What am I missing here.
I want execution to be sequential between the timer triggers. '''
***public static class GetOpenDataRealtimeFeed
{
[FunctionName("GetOpenDataOrchestrator")]
public static async Task<List<string>> RunOrchestrator(
[OrchestrationTrigger] IDurableOrchestrationContext context, Binder binder, ILogger log)
{
var outputs = new List<string>();
var entityId = new EntityId(nameof(GetPrevLastModifiedTimestamp), "entityKey2");
string prevTS = await context.CallEntityAsync<string>(entityId, "Get");
string currentTS = DateTime.Now.ToString();
outputs.Add(currentTS);
outputs.Add(prevTS);
context.SignalEntity(entityId, "Set", currentTS);
return null;
}
//Durable entity function to get & set the last modified timestamp
[FunctionName("GetPrevLastModifiedTimestamp")]
public static void GetPrevLastModifiedTimestamp([EntityTrigger] IDurableEntityContext ctx)
{
switch (ctx.OperationName.ToLowerInvariant())
{
case "set":
ctx.SetState(ctx.GetInput<string>());
break;
case "get":
ctx.Return(ctx.GetState<string>());
break;
}
}
[FunctionName("getOpenDataRealtimeFeed_Trigger")]
public static async Task Run(
[TimerTrigger("%triggerTimer%")] TimerInfo myTimer,
[DurableClient] IDurableOrchestrationClient starter,
ILogger log)
{
// Function input comes from the request content.
string instanceId = await starter.StartNewAsync("GetOpenDataOrchestrator", null);
log.LogInformation($"Started orchestration with ID = '{instanceId}'.");
}
}
}***
