# Azure Container Apps

Creates an Azure Container App and deploys a custom Docker image to it

- Source on GitHub: https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/azure-ts-containerapps
- Deploy with Pulumi: https://app.pulumi.com/new?template=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fpulumi%2Fexamples%2Ftree%2Fmaster%2Fazure-ts-containerapps

## Get started with this example

This example lives in the [pulumi/examples](https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/azure-ts-containerapps) 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-ts-containerapps
cd pulumi-examples/azure-ts-containerapps
```

Starting point for building web application hosted in Azure Container Apps.

## Prerequisites

1. [Install Pulumi](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/get-started/install/)
2. [Configure Azure credentials](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/cloud-providers/azure/setup/)
3. [Install Node.js](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/languages/javascript/)

## Deploying the example

1.  Create a new stack:

    ```bash
    pulumi stack init dev
    ```

1.  Log in to the Azure CLI (you will be prompted to do this during deployment if you forget this step):

    ```bash
    az login
    ```

1.  Set the Azure region to deploy into:

    ```bash
    pulumi config set azure-native:location westus2
    ```

1.  Install dependencies:

    ```bash
    npm install
    ```

1.  Run `pulumi up` to preview and deploy changes:

    ```bash
    pulumi up
    ```

    ```
    Updating (dev):
    ...
    Resources:
        + 7 created
    Duration: 4m18s
    ```

1.  Check the deployed endpoint:

    ```bash
    curl "$(pulumi stack output url)"
    ```

    ```
    <html>
    <body>
    <h1>Your custom docker image is running in Azure Container Apps!</h1>
    </body>
    </html>
    ```

## Cleaning up

Once you are done, you can destroy all of the resources, and the stack:

```bash
pulumi destroy
pulumi stack rm
```
