Example of WebJobs for PDF creation.
| Build status | Release status |
|---|---|
This is a simple example of async integration using Azure WebJobs on an Azure Linux docker-compose WebApp. It has a simple form to fill with some information (just like a kind of inspection). Inserted data is sent to server and you'll always receive an answer. If everything runs fine, you'll receive an email with your PDF report in the Languages you choose. Otherwise, you'll receive an error message.
Azure WebJobs are background services that are perfect for services integration and/or long time tasks (like PDF generation and external API calls).
WebJobs run connected to Azure Storage Queues and one of the best resources (in my opinion) is the ability to use -poison queue. When a run fails after X times (default is five), the message is sent to a -poison queue. So if for any reason your execution falls in an error, you can have a second WebJob Function connected to the -poison queue to handle the situation.

This application is automatically built, tested and deployed by Azure Pipelines. Each git push to master or to a PR is built and tested by Azure Pipelines. If the build of master branch is ok the Release takes place and updates the app using Docker integration.
This is the public Azure Pipeline.
The containers of this app are registered in a public repo and can be found at docker/ricardogaefke/ricardogaefke-pdf.
