How Do I Build an Azure Sql Firewallrule With Pulumi?

Introduction

To build an Azure SQL Firewall Rule with Pulumi, we will use the @pulumi/azure-native package. This package allows us to interact with Azure resources using Pulumi. The key service involved here is the Azure SQL Firewall Rule, which controls access to your Azure SQL Database by specifying allowed IP ranges.

Step-by-Step Explanation

Step 1: Install Pulumi and Azure Native Provider

First, ensure you have Pulumi installed. If not, you can install it using npm:

npm install -g pulumi

Next, install the Azure Native provider:

npm install @pulumi/azure-native

Step 2: Create a New Pulumi Project

Create a new directory for your project and initialize a new Pulumi project:

mkdir pulumi-azure-sql-firewall
cd pulumi-azure-sql-firewall
pulumi new azure-typescript

Step 3: Define the Azure SQL Firewall Rule

In your index.ts file, define the Azure SQL Firewall Rule resource. You will need to specify the name of the rule, the start and end IP addresses, the resource group, and the SQL server name:

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as azure from "@pulumi/azure-native";

const resourceGroup = new azure.resources.ResourceGroup("resourceGroup", {
    resourceGroupName: "myResourceGroup",
    location: "WestUS",
});

const sqlServer = new azure.sql.Server("sqlServer", {
    resourceGroupName: resourceGroup.name,
    serverName: "mySqlServer",
    location: resourceGroup.location,
    administratorLogin: "adminuser",
    administratorLoginPassword: "adminpassword",
});

const firewallRule = new azure.sql.FirewallRule("firewallRule", {
    resourceGroupName: resourceGroup.name,
    serverName: sqlServer.name,
    firewallRuleName: "myFirewallRule",
    startIpAddress: "0.0.0.0",
    endIpAddress: "255.255.255.255",
});

export const firewallRuleName = firewallRule.name;

Step 4: Deploy the Resources

Run the following commands to deploy your resources:

pulumi up

Follow the prompts to review and confirm the deployment.

Summary

In this guide, we covered how to create an Azure SQL Firewall Rule using Pulumi and the @pulumi/azure-native package. We installed the necessary packages, initialized a new Pulumi project, defined the firewall rule resource in the index.ts file, and deployed the resources using pulumi up. This setup allows you to control access to your Azure SQL Database by specifying allowed IP ranges.

Full Code Example

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as azure from "@pulumi/azure-native";

const resourceGroup = new azure.resources.ResourceGroup("resourceGroup", {
    resourceGroupName: "myResourceGroup",
    location: "WestUS",
});

const sqlServer = new azure.sql.Server("sqlServer", {
    resourceGroupName: resourceGroup.name,
    serverName: "mySqlServer",
    location: resourceGroup.location,
    administratorLogin: "adminuser",
    administratorLoginPassword: "adminpassword",
});

const firewallRule = new azure.sql.FirewallRule("firewallRule", {
    resourceGroupName: resourceGroup.name,
    serverName: sqlServer.name,
    firewallRuleName: "myFirewallRule",
    startIpAddress: "0.0.0.0",
    endIpAddress: "255.255.255.255",
});

export const firewallRuleName = firewallRule.name;
