Time trigger function with CosmosDB inputs - azure

Question

I have created a time trigger function in azure functions and Added a CosmosDB input as shown below.
Below is the .csx file
#r "Microsoft.Azure.Documents.Client"
using System;
using Microsoft.Azure.Documents;
using Microsoft.Azure.Documents.Client;
public static async Task Run(TimerInfo myTimer, string[] inputDocument, TraceWriter log)
{
log.Info($"C# Timer trigger function executed at: {DateTime.Now}");
// string [] = bindings.inputDocument;
DocumentClient client;
}
How to get the input documents from cosmosDb into this csx file?
I am not familiar with C#, in javascript we will use var Data = context.bindings.DataInput;
How to do the same in c#?

Answer 1

You can use it like the below snippet
public static void Run(TimerInfo myTimer, IEnumerable<dynamic> documents)
{
foreach (var doc in documents)
{
// operate on each document
}
}

Questions from comments
If we have more than one cosmos Db input do we need to add as below ?
No if even if you have more than one inputs the IEnumerable<dynamic> documents is used. And you can iterate the list.
How to add if we have a cosmosDB output ?
The out object is used in this which points to your binding.
public static void Run(string myQueueItem, out object employeeDocument, ILogger log)
{
log.LogInformation($"C# Queue trigger function processed: {myQueueItem}");
dynamic employee = JObject.Parse(myQueueItem);
employeeDocument = new {
id = employee.name + "-" + employee.employeeId,
name = employee.name,
employeeId = employee.employeeId,
address = employee.address
};
}
