Azure-docs: LinuxFXVersion Possible Values - Elaboration/Explanation Required

[RossMurr4y]

The information provided here on the LinuxFXVersion is only partially complete, and all examples are specific to running Azure Functions as a container deployment. This article could greatly benefit from either a definitive list of the possible LinuxFXVersion values, or even better would be the source of truth for that value for each possible runtime.

All examples on this page show the LinuxFXValue property to be a dockerhub container tag. However when you deploy a FunctionApp from the Azure CLI and specify just a runtime, the LinuxFXValue will look like "PYTHON|3.6". There is no simple way to view all the possible options, or to know how to easily construct such a tag without digging around through many other examples outside of the official docs.

Hi @RossMurr4y I have assigned this to content author for further review and update as appropriate.

@RossMurr4y Try running Azure CLI cmd, az webapp list-runtimes --linux

@aholler2 I don't think that list is up to date. When I ran it, it was missing DOTNETCORE|3.1 which I know is a valid value because that's how I'm currently deploying.

# az webapp list-runtimes --linux
