Web server using Azure Virtual Machine

This example lives in the pulumi/examples repository. Check out just this directory to use it:

$ git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples
$ git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set azure-py-webserver
$ cd pulumi-examples/azure-py-webserver

This example deploys an Azure Virtual Machine and starts an HTTP server on it.

Prerequisites#

1. Install Pulumi
2. Configure Azure credentials
3. Install Python

Deploying the example#

1. Create a new stack:

   pulumi stack init dev

2. Set the required configuration for this example. This example requires you to supply a username and password to the virtual machine that we are going to create. Note that --secret ensures your password is encrypted safely.

   pulumi config set azure-native:location westus    # any valid Azure region will do
   pulumi config set username webmaster
   pulumi config set password --secret <your-password>

3. Install dependencies:

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate
   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Deploy the stack:

   pulumi up

   Updating (azuredev):
   
       Type                                      Name                         Status
   +   pulumi:pulumi:Stack                       azure-py-webserver-azuredev  created
   +   ├─ azure-native:core:ResourceGroup        server                       created
   +   ├─ azure-native:network:VirtualNetwork    server-network               created
   +   ├─ azure-native:network:PublicIp          server-ip                    created
   +   ├─ azure-native:network:Subnet            server-subnet                created
   +   ├─ azure-native:network:NetworkInterface  server-nic                   created
   +   └─ azure-native:compute:VirtualMachine    server-vm                    created
   
   Outputs:
       public_ip: "137.117.15.111"
   
   Resources:
       + 7 created
   
   Duration: 2m55s

5. Get the IP address of the newly-created instance from the stack’s outputs:

   pulumi stack output public_ip

6. Check to see that your server is now running:

   curl http://$(pulumi stack output public_ip)

   Hello, World!

Cleaning up#

Once you are finished, you can destroy your stack and remove it to avoid incurring any additional cost:

pulumi destroy
pulumi stack rm
