Question: Is it safe/okay to pip freeze > requirements.txt pinning the azure-functions version? #37

Is it okay to:

python -m pip freeze > requirements.txt

the Python packages installed during development and pinning the azure-functions version? I'm not clear if Azure Functions will read that file and install the dependencies listed in that file.

@predatorian3
Yes, you can. Dependencies are obtained remotely based on the contents of the requirements.txt file. Please read this for more detail:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-reference-python#package-management

My recommendation is to include only minimum packages in requirements.txt.
