What does Durable Functions mean for the PowerShell worker? about azure-functions-powershell-worker HOT 4 CLOSED

As part of getting Durable Functions to work in languages run out-of-proc in Functions v2, we are developing an execution schema which is used to communicate between the process running the Functions runtime and Durable Functions extension, and the process running the language worker.

To enable Durable Functions for PowerShell (or any other language that runs via a language worker), you'll need two things:

• support for the Durable Functions bindings in that language
• at least one shim library that can parse the input schema received from the Durable Functions extension and produce correct output schema that the extension can interpret. (Multiple shim libraries can be written for a single language, each enabling a different style/developer experience.)

You can see an example of this for JavaScript at the Azure/azure-functions-durable-js repo. The execution schema is being developed alongside this library, but is language-agnostic. Both are currently in public preview.

Please reach out with any questions or feedback about this - we'd love to help bring Durable Functions to PowerShell. :)
