Azure Functions Language Worker Protobuf

This repository contains the protobuf definition file which defines the gRPC service which is used between the Azure Functions Host and the Azure Functions language workers. This repo is shared across many repos in many languages (for each worker) by using git commands.

To use this repo in Azure Functions language workers, follow steps below to add this repo as a subtree (Adding This Repo). If this repo is already embedded in a language worker repo, follow the steps to update the consumed file (Pulling Updates).

Adding This Repo

From within the Azure Functions language worker repo:

1. Define remote branch for cleaner git commands
   • git remote add proto-file https://github.com/azure/azure-functions-language-worker-protobuf.git
   • git fetch proto-file
2. Index contents of azure-functions-worker-protobuf to language worker repo
   • git read-tree --prefix=<path in language worker repo> -u proto-file/<version branch>
3. Add new path in language worker repo to .gitignore file
   • In .gitignore, add path in language worker repo
4. Finalize with commit
   • git commit -m "Added subtree from https://github.com/azure/azure-functions-language-worker-protobuf. Branch: <version branch>. Commit: <latest protobuf commit hash>"
   • git push

Pulling Updates

From within the Azure Functions language worker repo:

1. Define remote branch for cleaner git commands
   • git remote add proto-file https://github.com/azure/azure-functions-language-worker-protobuf.git
   • git fetch proto-file
2. Pull a specific release tag
   • git fetch proto-file refs/tags/<tag-name>
     • Example: git fetch proto-file refs/tags/v1.1.0-protofile
3. Merge updates
   • Merge with an explicit path to subtree: git merge -X subtree=<path in language worker repo> --squash <tag-name> --allow-unrelated-histories --strategy-option theirs
     • Example: git merge -X subtree=src/WebJobs.Script.Grpc/azure-functions-language-worker-protobuf --squash v1.1.0-protofile --allow-unrelated-histories --strategy-option theirs
4. Finalize with commit
   • git commit -m "Updated subtree from https://github.com/azure/azure-functions-language-worker-protobuf. Tag: <tag-name>. Commit: <commit hash>"
   • git push

Releasing a Language Worker Protobuf version

1. Draft a release in the GitHub UI
   • Be sure to include details of the release
2. Create a release version, following semantic versioning guidelines (semver.org)
3. Tag the version with the pattern: v<M>.<m>.<p>-protofile (example: v1.1.0-protofile)
4. Merge dev to master
