The Hello World application inside getting started doesn't start the orchestrator

[CameronAavik]

Hi, I'm very new to durable functions and I'm still learning how it all works, so I may be making the wrong observations here.

I followed through the steps in the README, but when running the example, it says that only the TypedSequence.Run function is loaded. I believe though that there is an error here and that the following line:

let SayHello([<ActivityTrigger>] name) = Activity.run sayHello

should instead be

let SayHello([<ActivityTrigger>] name) = sayHello.run name

Changing this makes the SayHello function load.

However, even after making this change, the hello world application doesn't actually run anything. To get it to work, I had to add the HttpStart function from HttpStart.fs.

I think the README should be updated to have the above fixes (assuming they are correct and not me misunderstanding things), and it should also include the example URLs to call to verify it works.

Hi @CameronAavik, thank you for following through and reporting this!
I think you are right, and the README should be improved as you suggested.
