Azure Function - Queue trigger process batchwise instead of itemwise

Question

Is there a way to trigger Azure Function from queue and process messages batch by batch instead of item by item?

I have a lot of web jobs that use GroupQueueTrigger extension allowing me to read batch of 32 messages from the queue and process them in one run (this has a lot of advantages, f.e. speeds up inserts to Azure Table by using batch inserts, allows me to localy map-reduce messages before further processing, etc.). I want to rewrite these web jobs to Azure Function but I don't like to give up on batchwise processing.

Great question, but no, you can't.

Event Hubs trigger supports that (and it's the recommended way to use it), so maybe you could give that one a try?

UPDATE: There is an open-source library to add batching to Queue triggers. I haven't tried it myself, but give it a spin.
