azure-storage-emulator

I have a problem with the Azure storage emulator, which refuses to connect to LocalDb. It used to work just fine before I created an ODBC connection to it using the named pipe. What happened: I needed to access the data in my database from Mathematica, so I generated an ODBC connection. ODBC could not connect to (localdb)\v11.0, so I used a named pipe instead. Since then, Azure has stopped to work. I upgraded to SDK2.0, but it did not help. I tried to run DSInit.exe, but I get: Found SQL Instance (localdb)\v11.0. Creating database DevelopmentStorageDb20 on SQL instance '(localdb)\v11.0'.

Since I installed the new Windows Azure SDK 2.3 I got a warning from csrun: "DevStore interaction through CSRun has been depricated. Use WAStorageEmulator.exe instead." So there are two questions: 1) How to start the new storage emulator correctly from code? 2) How to determine from code if the storage emulator is already running? I found the solution myself. Here is my C# code. The old code used for SDK 2.2 is commented out. public static void StartStorageEmulator() { //var count = Process.GetProcessesByName("DSServiceLDB").Length; //if (count == 0) // ExecuteCSRun("/devstore:start"); var

My solution is using Azure Emulator. I would like to clear the Azure Storage Emulator Blobs , Queues and Tables without having to perform manual actions. I need to be able to do it from command line, preferably PowerShell. Server Explorer in Visual Studio 2015, Azure-node: AzureStorageEmulator.exe help returns the following commands: AzureStorageEmulator.exe init: Initialize the emulator database and configuration. AzureStorageEmulator.exe start: Start the emulator. AzureStorageEmulator.exe stop: Stop the emulator. AzureStorageEmulator.exe status: Get current emulator status.

I'd like to run unit / integration tests that utilise the Azure Storage Emulator rather than real storage from a Azure DevOps build. The emulator is installed on the Hosted Build Controller as part of the Azure SDK in its usual place (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\Storage Emulator\AzureStorageEmulator.exe). However the emulator is in the uninitialised state on the Build Controller. When trying to run the command Init from the command line, I get the following error: This operation requires an interactive window station Is there an known workaround for this or plans to support the
