How use a custom container with my azure function ?

Question

Hello community,

For my project of converting docx to pdf,

I want to execute an azure function in node.js, i need to add some dependencies and also to install libreoffice in my computer, the azure function work fine in local but not when i publish it.

I suppose it's because the azure function not have access to libreoffice i wanted to add a custom container for the source in deployment center but the source doesn't appear.

May someone help me ?

Thanks a lot.

Hi @DOS SANTOS Jérémie

Unfortunately, you can't update an existing function app to use a container image. You'll have to recreate the function app using the default container image.

Once created, you can change the image under Deployment Center.
