Hi, so im trying to use azure iot hub and azure iot device library in my function. At the first i thought it can be directly imported like this.
But it turns out showing an error like this when i check the monitor logs
Does anyone know how to install and import the library ? thank you for any responses & helps
@Ardel Vito Putra Herijanto Thanks for reaching out.
You can refer to the document here. You need to define the package in the requirement.txt file and if you want a specific version then you need to define the version as well.
@MayankBargali-MSFT Thank you for your response, previously I had not uploaded the requirements.txt file, but now after reading your suggestions, I uploaded the file which already contains the packages that need to be used. The results still show that the module is not recognized.
Is there any configuration or something else ? since i already restart my function app too after adding the requirements.txt file
@Ardel Vito Putra Herijanto As per your code I can see you are using azure-iot-device and azure-iot-hub module so your requirements.txt file should contain the below along with default and other modules in case if you are using any.
azure-iot-device
azure-iot-hub
@MayankBargali-MSFT yup i already define it in my requierements.txt like this
but still got same issues and it said the azure.iot module is not find
@Ardel Vito Putra Herijanto Can you please confirm if you are creating the function directly from azure portal or developed in VS code and deployed to function app? Is it v1 or v2 python language that you have developed your function app. I will try to reproduce the issue at my end.
@MayankBargali-MSFT Hi, thank you for the response and help. Now I can solve the problem, I created a function using the command line on my laptop then I installed the required packages, after that I published it so that this function can be updated in the function app on the Azure Portal.
But I still can't find how to install the python package if I create this function directly in the Azure Portal, so I use an alternative method as I mentioned above, maybe it could be a suggestion for the Azure team to provide installation steps if using the Azure Portal directly .
@Ardel Vito Putra Herijanto Thanks for your response.
If you create the function from portal and have dependencies on some other packages, then you need to run pip install from Kudo.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Directly updating the requirement.txt will not install the package when you create the function from portal and there would be no build part which will install the necessary package/libraries there it is recommended you should instead develop your functions locally and publish to a function app in Azure as documented here.
When you create the function locally and deploy then the requirement.txt packages are installled.
@MayankBargali-MSFT Noted, thanks for sharing, really appreciate it
