Use Create Table Operation with Azure SDK for JS doesn't access Azurite

[zzhxiaofeng]

• Package Name: @azure/data-tables
• Package Version: 1.0.0-beta.3
• NodeJS: v12.18.0
• Typescript: v3.9.5

Error Description:
When use Create Table Operation, request URL which is constructed in Azure SDK for JS can not access Azurite. The reason is the request URL for Azurite is different from the one of an Azure storage account.
In Azurite, request URL of Create Table Operation constructed is shown as following:

https://127.0.0.1:10002/<account-name>/Tables

In Azure SDK for JS, request URL which is used to access azurite in create table operation is shown as following:

https://127.0.0.1:10002/<account-name>

It use <account-name> as path and doesn't use Tables which is the path of Create Table Operation.

Error Track:
The code for storage table request URL constructed in Azure SDK for JS as following:
https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/blob/master/sdk/tables/data-tables/src/generated/operations/table.ts#L81

When using Create Table operation with Azurite endpoint(https://127.0.0.1:10002/devstoreaccount1), the handler method in Azure SDK for JS put 127.0.0.1 as host, 10002 as port, /devstoreaccount1 as path.
https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/blob/master/sdk/core/core-http/src/url.ts#L368

Expected Behavior
When using Create Table Operation, the request URL which is constructed in Azure SDK for JS can access azurite.

@zzhxiaofeng thanks for reporting this issue. Is this happening for all operations or only for create table?

Also, would you mind sharing a snippet of your test code which reproduces this issue please?

[zzhxiaofeng]

@joheredi Ok, I just find this issue when use create table operation in Azurite.
the code to reproduce is shown as following:

import { TableClient } from "@azure/data-tables";
import * as assert from "assert"
async function main() {
   const tableClient = await TableClient.fromConnectionString("<Azurite-https-connectionString>", "<table-name>");
   try{
      await tableClient.create();
   }catch(err){
      assert.ok(error);
   }
}
main();

I've filed an issue in core-http #13159 to track the fundamental issue. Meanwhile, I'm currently investigating a way to work around this limitation in the SDK side

Thanks for reporting this issue, a fix has been merged and a new version released. Please install the latest version of @azure/data-tables and let me know if you see any issues.

npm install @azure/data-tables@latest

Sample to create a client to test with Azurite:

const tableService = TableClient.fromConnectionString('UseDevelopmentStorage=true', 'testTable');

@joheredi Thank you for resolve the issue. But the latest version of @azure/data-tables just support use http connection string to access Azurite. Can you update the code and make @azure/data-tables to support use https connection string of Azurite?

[joheredi]

@zzhxiaofeng, UseDevelopmentStorage=true shortcut is meant to be used in the most basic scenario. For more advanced scenarios such as using https, custom host or accountId you should be able to do this by explicitly setting the custom values. For example:

const credentials = new TablesSharedKeyCredential("devstoreaccount1", "Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw==")
const client = new TableClient("https://localhost:10002/devstoreaccount1", "testTable", credentials)

Please let me know if this works for you

[zzhxiaofeng]

@joheredi Yes, it works. I'm sorry to waste your time.

[joheredi]

No waste at all, thanks for reporting the issue! I'm happy to hear that your problem got resolved!
