Enable real-time updates in a web application using Azure Functions and SignalR Service
Change a JavaScript web app update mechanism from polling to real-time push-based architecture with SignalR Service, Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Functions. Use Vue.js and JavaScript to use SignalR using Visual Studio Code.

SignalR with Azure Functions triggers and bindings

This repository is the companion to the following training module:

This solution displays fake stock prices as they update:

  • Start: uses polling every minute
  • Solution: uses database change notifications and SignalR

Set up resources

The Azure resources are created from bash scripts in the setup-resources folder. This includes creating:

  • Azure Cosmos DB
  • Azure SignalR
  • Azure Storage (for Azure Function triggers)

Ports

  • Client: 3000: built with webpack
  • Server: 7071: build with Azure Functions core tools

Starting project without SignalR

The starting project updates stock prices in a Cosmos DB database every minute with an Azure Function app and a timer trigger. The client polls for all the stock prices.

Ending project

The starting project updates stock prices in a Cosmos DB database every minute with an Azure Function app and a timer trigger. The client uses SignalR to recieve on the Cosmos DB items with change notifications through an Azure Functions app.

Deploy to Azure Static Web Apps and Azure Functions App

  1. Deploy the backend to Azure Functions App.

    GitHub Action workflow file should look like:

     # Docs for the Azure Web Apps Deploy action: https://github.com/azure/functions-action
     # More GitHub Actions for Azure: https://github.com/Azure/actions
     
     name: Server - Build and deploy Node.js project to Azure Function App
     
     on:
       push:
         branches:
           - main
       workflow_dispatch:
     
     env:
       # solution/server is the finished path
       # start/server is the original path you work on
       PACKAGE_PATH: 'solution/server' # set this to the path to your web app project, defaults to the repository root
       AZURE_FUNCTIONAPP_PACKAGE_PATH: '.'
       NODE_VERSION: '20.x' # set this to the node version to use (supports 8.x, 10.x, 12.x)
     
     jobs:
       build:
         runs-on: ubuntu-latest
         steps:
           - name: 'Checkout GitHub Action'
             uses: actions/checkout@v4
     
           - name: Setup Node ${{ env.NODE_VERSION }} Environment
             uses: actions/setup-node@v3
             with:
               node-version: ${{ env.NODE_VERSION }}
     
           - name: 'Resolve Project Dependencies Using Npm'
             shell: bash
             run: |
               pushd './${{ env.AZURE_FUNCTIONAPP_PACKAGE_PATH }}/${{ env.PACKAGE_PATH}}'
               npm install
               npm run build --if-present
               npm run test --if-present
               popd
     
           - name: Zip artifact for deployment
             run: |
               pushd './${{ env.AZURE_FUNCTIONAPP_PACKAGE_PATH }}/${{ env.PACKAGE_PATH}}'
               zip -r release.zip .
               popd
               cp ./${{ env.AZURE_FUNCTIONAPP_PACKAGE_PATH }}/${{ env.PACKAGE_PATH }}/release.zip ./release.zip
             
           - name: Upload artifact for deployment job
             uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
             with:
               name: node-app
               path: release.zip
     
       deploy:
         runs-on: ubuntu-latest
         needs: build
         environment:
           name: 'Production'
           url: ${{ steps.deploy-to-webapp.outputs.webapp-url }}
         permissions:
           id-token: write #This is required for requesting the JWT
     
         steps:
           - name: Download artifact from build job
             uses: actions/download-artifact@v3
             with:
               name: node-app
     
           - name: Unzip artifact for deployment
             run: unzip release.zip
           
           - name: Login to Azure
             uses: azure/login@v1
             with:
               client-id: ${{ secrets.AZUREAPPSERVICE_CLIENTID_123 }}
               tenant-id: ${{ secrets.AZUREAPPSERVICE_TENANTID_123 }}
               subscription-id: ${{ secrets.AZUREAPPSERVICE_SUBSCRIPTIONID_123 }}
     
           - name: 'Run Azure Functions Action'
             uses: Azure/functions-action@v1
             id: fa
             with:
               app-name: 'signalr-3'
               slot-name: 'Production'
               package: ${{ env.AZURE_FUNCTIONAPP_PACKAGE_PATH }}
  2. Deploy the frontend to Azure Static Web Apps in Standard plan type (not free) in order to use bring your own backend (byob).

    • Azure Cloud: Choose the Vue.js prebuild template then edit for this example, using the example client workflow. The build relies on the injection of the repo variable to find the BACKEND_URL value during SWA build and deploy. The webpack Dotenv param for systemvars: true brings in the value from the GitHub step to the webpack build.

    • Local: The client build on the local machine depends on a .env file at the root of the client application.

  3. In Azure Functions, enable CORS for the client URL and check Enable Access-Control-Allow-Credentials.
