How do I implement a custom binding for Azure Functions?

Azure Functions come with a fixed set of pre-existing bindings.

At the same time, Azure Functions is based on the WebJobs SDK, which has a story about extensibility . It allows you to create your own binding types, including custom triggers.

Is it possible to run these custom bindings while the Azure function is running? If so, is there a tutorial or documentation on how to do this? If not, are you planning?

In the use case, some of the examples will integrate with non-backlash products (like Kafka) or regular back-end protocols.

Custom input and output bindings are now fully supported. More information can be found on the Azure WebJobs wiki page: https://github.com/Azure/azure-webjobs-sdk/wiki/Creating-custom-input-and-output-bindings

This wiki describes how to define a custom binding extension for the WebJobs SDK. These same extensions can be used unchanged in Azure Functions.

We have a preview of the Bring Your Own Snap feature. See Extensibility for more details on this feature and WebJobsExtensionSamples for sample and docs. Alternatively, you can track the function here
