Azure Function DocumentClient Binding - azure

Question

I am trying to upgrade my DocumentDB nuget package from 1.13 to 1.18
I am facing issue while upgrading my azure function which is having a DocumentClient binding.
In DocumentDB 1.13 the binding sections does not take :{Id} as an binding parameter and was creating the DocumentClient object perfectly . Whereas the DocumentDB 1.18 needs {Id} as an binding parameter [ Which i dont want , as I want to iterate through entire documents in the collection ]
my host.json binding before 1.18 was
{
"frameworks": {
"net46": {
"dependencies": {
"Dynamitey": "1.0.2",
"Microsoft.Azure.DocumentDB": "1.13.0",
"Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.DocumentDB": "1.0.0"
}
}
}
my local.settings.json had only
{
"IsEncrypted": false,
"Values": {
"AzureWebJobsStorage": "
DefaultEndpointsProtocol=xxxxx/xxxxx==;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net",
"AzureWebJobsDashboard": "",
"AzureWebJobsDocumentDBConnectionString":
"AccountEndpoint=xxxxx/;AccountKey=xxxx==;",
}
}
and my azure function looks like
[FunctionName("DeleteAVFeedAuditData")]
public static async Task Run([TimerTrigger("0 0/1 * * * *")]TimerInfo myTimer, [DocumentDB]DocumentClient client,
TraceWriter log)
{
var c = client;
log.Info($"C# Timer trigger function executed at: {DateTime.Now}");
var value=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["AVAuditFlushAfterDays"];
var collectionUri = UriFactory.CreateDocumentCollectionUri("AVFeedAudit", "AuditRecords");
//var documents = client.CreateDocumentQuery(collectionUri,"Select * from c where c.EndedAt");
//foreach (Document d in documents)
//{
// await client.DeleteDocumentAsync(d.SelfLink);
//}
}
}
Now when running the azure function with updated package of documentDB 1.18 it says to bind the {Id} which will give only the single document with the specified id . Whereas my requirment is same as the previous version of DocumentDB 1.13.
Please tell how can i get the entire documents binded with my DocumentClient with the new updated package.

According to your description, I checked this issue and reproduced this issue as follows:

Based on your scenario, I would recommend you construct the DocumentClient by yourself instead of using the binding to DocumentClient for a workaround to achieve your purpose.
DocumentClient client = new DocumentClient(new Uri("https://<your-account-name>.documents.azure.com:443/"), "<your-account-key>");
And you could configure the serviceEndpoint and accountKey under your local.settings.json file just as the app setting AzureWebJobsStorage. Then you could use the following code for retrieving your setting value:
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["your-appsetting-key"];
Moreover, here is a issue about constructing the DocumentClient from the connection string, you could refer to it.
UPDATE:
For 1.18, the following code could work as expected:
[FunctionName("Function1")]
public static void Run([TimerTrigger("*/10 * * * * *")]TimerInfo myTimer, [DocumentDB("brucedb01", "brucecoll01",ConnectionStringSetting = "AzureWebJobsDocumentDBConnectionString")] IEnumerable<dynamic> documents, TraceWriter log)
{
foreach (JObject doc in documents)
{
//doc.SelectToken("_self").Value<string>();
log.Info(doc.ToString());
}
}
