CLI: Function compilation error (C#)

Hi all,

when I try to run a function (C#) with the azurefunctions CLI via func run <methodname> that has a dependency to a third party library (i.e. ImageResizer) I get the following error:

Reading host configuration file 'C:\Users\olarafat\repos\serverless-imagemanipulation\host.json'
Function compilation error
run.csx(1,7): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'ImageResizer' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
run.csx(7,24): error CS0103: The name 'ImageResizer' does not exist in the current context
run.csx(12,13): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'ResizeSettings' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
run.csx(12,52): error CS0103: The name 'FitMode' does not exist in the current context
run.csx(19,13): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'ResizeSettings' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
run.csx(19,52): error CS0103: The name 'FitMode' does not exist in the current context

The NuGet packages haven been restored via dotnet restore. The function works when deployed to Azure.

Repro steps

The code and configuration can be found here: https://github.com/arafato/serverless.imageresizer

Expected behavior

A locally running function.

Actual behavior

An exception (see above)

Btw, make sure you set a value for your connection strings in appsettings.json. Any triggers other than HTTP won’t work if you don’t have a value for AzureWebJobsStorage. For instance:

{
  "IsEncrypted": false,
  "Values": {
    "AzureWebJobsStorage": "connection string value"
  }
}
