EventHubTrigger Interface

  • Reference
Package:
com.microsoft.azure.functions.annotation
Maven Artifact:
com.microsoft.azure.functions:azure-functions-java-library:1.3.1

Implements

java.lang.annotation.Annotation

public interface EventHubTrigger
implements java.lang.annotation.Annotation

Place this on a parameter whose value would come from event hub, and causing the method to run when a new event is arrived. The parameter type can be one of the following:

  • Any native Java types such as int, String, byte[]
  • Nullable values using Optional
  • Any POJO type

The following example shows a Java function that logs the message body of the event hub trigger:

@FunctionName("eventHubMonitor")
 public void logEventHubMessage(
    @EventHubTrigger(name = "event", 
    eventHubName = "samples-workitems", 
    connection = "AzureEventHubConnection") String message,
     final ExecutionContext context
 ) {
     context.getLogger().info("Event hub message received: " + message);
 }

Method Details

cardinality

public abstract Cardinality cardinality()

Cardinality of the trigger input. Choose 'One' if the input is a single message or 'Many' if the input is an array of messages. 'Many' is the default if unspecified

Returns:

An Cardinality value representing the Cardinality

connection

public abstract String connection()

Defines the app setting name that contains the Azure Eventhub connection string.

Returns:

The app setting name of the connection string.

consumerGroup

public abstract String consumerGroup()

Defines the consumer group of the event hub to which to bind.

Returns:

The event hub consumer group string.

dataType

public abstract String dataType()

Defines how Functions runtime should treat the parameter value. Possible values are:

  • "": get the value as a string, and try to deserialize to actual parameter type like POJO
  • string: always get the value as a string
  • binary: get the value as a binary data, and try to deserialize to actual parameter type byte[]

Returns:

The dataType which will be used by the Functions runtime.

eventHubName

public abstract String eventHubName()

Defines the name of the event hub to which to bind.

Returns:

The event hub name string.
