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-ts-webserver
$ cd pulumi-examples/azure-ts-webserver

This example provisions a Linux web server in an Azure Virtual Machine and gives it a public IP address.

Prerequisites#

1. Install Pulumi
2. Configure Azure credentials
3. Install Node.js

Deploying the example#

1. Create a new stack:

   pulumi stack init dev

2. Configure the deployment. The username and password here will be used to configure the Virtual Machine. The password must adhere to the Azure restrictions on VM passwords. The --secret flag 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. Log in to the Azure CLI (you will be prompted to do this during deployment if you forget this step):

   az login

4. Install dependencies:

   npm install

5. Deploy the stack:

   pulumi up

   Previewing changes:
   ...
   
   Performing changes:
   ...
   info: 7 changes performed:
       + 7 resources created
   Update duration: 2m38s

6. Check the IP address:

   pulumi stack output ipAddress

   40.112.181.239

Cleaning up#

Once you’re finished experimenting, tear down your stack’s resources by destroying and removing it:

pulumi destroy
pulumi stack rm
