--- title: "Static Website Using Azure Blob Storage and CDN" description: "An example of a static website hosted on Azure Blob Storage + Azure CDN." url: "https://www.pulumi.com/dev/examples/azure-py-static-website/" image: "https://www.pulumi.com/assets/og/dev/examples/azure-py-static-website.png" --- # Static Website Using Azure Blob Storage and CDN An example of a static website hosted on Azure Blob Storage + Azure CDN. - Source on GitHub: https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/azure-py-static-website ## Get started with this example This example lives in the [pulumi/examples](https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/azure-py-static-website) repo. Pull down just this directory to follow along: ```bash git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set azure-py-static-website cd pulumi-examples/azure-py-static-website ``` Based on https://github.com/zemien/static-website-ARM-template This example configures [Static website hosting in Azure Storage](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-static-website). In addition to the Storage itself, a CDN is configured to serve files from the Blob container origin. This may be useful if you need to serve files via HTTPS from a custom domain (not shown in the example). ## Running the App 1. Create a new stack: ``` $ pulumi stack init dev ``` 1. Login to Azure CLI (you will be prompted to do this during deployment if you forget this step): ``` $ az login ``` 1. Create a Python virtualenv, activate it, and install dependencies: This installs the dependent packages [needed](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/how-pulumi-works/) for our Pulumi program. ```bash $ python3 -m venv venv $ source venv/bin/activate $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt ``` 1. Set the Azure region location to use: ``` $ pulumi config set azure-native:location westus ``` 1. Run `pulumi up` to preview and deploy changes: ``` $ pulumi up Previewing changes: ... Performing changes: ... Resources: + 9 created Duration: 2m52s ``` 1. Check the deployed website endpoint: ``` $ pulumi stack output staticEndpoint https://websitesbc90978a1.z20.web.core.windows.net/ $ curl "$(pulumi stack output staticEndpoint)"
