python - Can't add libraries to function_app.py in azure Function

I have, for example, this function

I deployed it with VS Code using the following F1 option in VS Code

Nonetheless, when I go to the function app portal, it shows nothing under the functions submenu:

I don't know why I am not being able to see my functions in my function app, what am I missing?

Here is the dummy code of the function:

import azure.functions as func
import logging
import os
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.keyvault.secrets import SecretClient
from azuremunication.email import EmailClient
from datetime import timezone, timedelta, datetime
import jwt
import bcrypt
import pymssql
import json
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.keyvault.secrets import SecretClient


app = func.FunctionApp(http_auth_level=func.AuthLevel.ANONYMOUS)

@app.route(route="actualizar_contrasena", auth_level=func.AuthLevel.ANONYMOUS)
def actualizar_contrasena(req: func.HttpRequest) -> func.HttpResponse:
    import json

    try:
        req_body = req.get_json()
        username_to_check = req_body.get("username")
        password_to_check = str(req_body.get("password"))
        # do things
        return func.HttpResponse(
                json.dumps(
                    {"access_token": 1, "refresh_token": 1}
                ),
                status_code=200,
            )

    except Exception as e:
        return func.HttpResponse(str(e), status_code=500)

UPDATE

After following @RithwikBoj instructions, I'm in the same situation. I have observed that locally I can't see the functions neither:

This is my host.json:

{
  "version": "2.0",
  "logging": {
    "applicationInsights": {
      "samplingSettings": {

    }
  },
  "extensionBundle": {
    "id": "Microsoft.Azure.Functions.ExtensionBundle",
    "version": "[4.*, 5.0.0)"
  }
}

I realised that the requirements.txt has something wrong with it in the Function App

And the folder structure has not been updated, because I removed the Readme.md a while ago:

UPDATE I have edited the yaml, now it uploads the requirements.txt file correctly

UPDATE 2 I have deleted all imports except os, logging and azure.functions. After that, I can deploy correctly my function. Butm when I for example add import jwt to the python script, it disappears again. I need to add libraries to the script, that is my main issue

UPDATE 3 Adding the import inside the definition of each function seems to work:

@app.route(route="log_in_user", auth_level=func.AuthLevel.ANONYMOUS)
def log_in_user(req: func.HttpRequest) -> func.HttpResponse:
    import json
    import jwt # ADDED HERE THE LIBRARY

    try:
        req_body = req.get_json()
        username_to_check = req_body.get("username")
        password_to_check = str(req_body.get("password"))
        p = jwt.encode({"pass": password_to_check}, "assaasassa", algorithm="HS256")
        return func.HttpResponse(
                json.dumps(
                    {"access_token": 1, "refresh_token": 1, "p": p}
                ),
                status_code=200,
            )
    except Exception as e:
        return func.HttpResponse(str(e), status_code=500)

It is now deployed. But when I try to execute it in Azure:

Result: Failure Exception: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'jwt'

I have, for example, this function

Can you edit your question to share an minimal reproducible example of how you’ve defined your function(s) you expect to appear in the portal? – esqew Commented Jan 15 at 19:22
hi @esqew, i'm expecting to be able to see and click my function "actualizar_contrasena" in the azure portal. as you can see in the screenshot, it isn't there. just in my local function – OK 400 Commented Jan 15 at 22:09
@esqew I have added my code, but I don't think it is needed in my question – OK 400 Commented Jan 15 at 22:13
Added all packages in requirements.txt file? – RithwikBojja Commented Jan 16 at 3:30
I have added all of them indeed @RithwikBojja – OK 400 Commented Jan 16 at 18:15

Regarding your UPDATE 3

The error message is clear that jwt package is not installed. You already have jwt in the requirements.txt, the issue is in the github yaml pipeline. The build step activats virtual env and installs packages into the virtual env. However, your zip step excludes these venv\*. This is the reason the python packages do not exist on function app when you invoke the http trigger.

     - name: Create and start virtual environment
        run: |
          python -m venv venv
          source venv/bin/activate

      - name: Install dependencies
        run: pip install -r requirements.txt

      # Optional: Add step to run tests here

      - name: Zip artifact for deployment
        run: zip -r release.zip function_app.py host.json -x "*.txt venv/*" ".git/*" ".github/* *.md .gitignore local.*"

To validate if jwt is really installed or not on FA, you can browse files using vs code

The reason moving import jwt into log_in_user worked is that this function is not invoked until a http trigger is executed. when you put import jwt on the top of the file, this line is executed during function startup.

Deploy python function app to Azure via CMD

There are a few ways to deploy a python function, let's try this method first to test it out. This method gives you most visibility of what is happening under the hood.

Go to root of the project locally
Delete .venv folder. this is to speed up package time, we dont need virtual env for azure function. otherwise the whole folder will be zip and unzip and causes issues.
Run func azure functionapp publish <function app name> in git bash or any terminal window. i.e. func azure functionapp publish test3339
if error asking you to upgrade pip, please do so
watch the log. basically it should upload files, and do a remote build

Once completed, go to the deployment tab under function app to see the final status of deployment to be sure:

It might take 30 seconds for the function to show up in the overview page

This is a great guide to read through. the cmd deployment is under Deploy the function project to Azure section.

https://learn.microsoft/en-us/azure/azure-functions/create-first-function-cli-python?tabs=windows%2Cbash%2Cazure-cli%2Cbrowser

Deploy python function app to Azure via GitHub

If confirmed working in above method, you can refer to this guide to setup github action to deploy via pipeline. It is important to add venv to .gitignore so that these files are excluded from repo (also pipeline build)

https://learn.microsoft/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-how-to-github-actions?tabs=linux%2Cpython&pivots=method-manual

Python virtual env

when you run the func start locally with virtual env, the python packages are installed to system folder.

You have the option to create virtual env and active it to keep local python env clean. this is the purpose of .venv folder. I think VS Code by default creates one for your project.

py -m venv env
.\env\Scripts\activate

But when deploying to Azure, the build process will install all the packages for you and it does not use the virtual env inside .venv folder.

I have used below code and it got deployed for me and followed below process:

function_app.py:

import azure.functions as func
import logging as ri_lg
import pymssql as chop
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.keyvault.secrets import SecretClient

rith = func.FunctionApp(http_auth_level=func.AuthLevel.ANONYMOUS)

@rith.route(
    route="rith_func", methods=["POST"], auth_level=func.AuthLevel.ANONYMOUS
)
def rith_func(req: func.HttpRequest) -> func.HttpResponse:
    try:
        rith_rq_bdy = req.get_json()
        eml = rith_rq_bdy.get("email")
        pwd = rith_rq_bdy.get("password")
        ri_con = chop.connect(server="rithwik.database.windows",user="rithwik",password="RTestpass@2",database="test1")
        cho_cur = ri_con.cursor()
        cho_cur.execute("UPDATE users SET password = %s WHERE email = %s",(pwd, eml))
        ri_conmit()

        return func.HttpResponse("Hello Rithwik, the Password has been updated",status_code=200)

    except Exception as f:
        ri_lg.error(f"Error: {f}")
        return func.HttpResponse(f"Hello Rithwik, there is an error: {f}",status_code=500)
    finally:
        if "ri_con" in locals() and ri_con:
            ri_con.close()

local.settings.json:

{
  "IsEncrypted": false,
  "Values": {
    "AzureWebJobsStorage": "",
