Web server using Azure Virtual Machine

Basic C# example of an Azure web server accessible over HTTP.

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

Get started with this example
git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples
git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set classic-azure-cs-webserver
cd pulumi-examples/classic-azure-cs-webserver

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

Prerequisites#

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

Deploying the example#

  1. Create a new stack:

    Terminal window
    pulumi stack init dev
  2. Log in to the Azure CLI (you will be prompted to do this during deployment if you forget this step):

    Terminal window
    az login
  3. Set the location to deploy the resources to and the Azure subscription:

    Terminal window
    pulumi config set azure:location westus
    pulumi config set azure:subscriptionId <YOUR_SUBSCRIPTION_ID>
  4. Deploy the stack:

    Terminal window
    pulumi up
    Previewing changes:
    ...
    Performing changes:
    ...
    7 resources created
  5. Get the IP address of the newly-created instance from the stack’s outputs:

    Terminal window
    pulumi stack output IpAddress
    137.117.15.111
  6. Check to see that your server is now running:

    Terminal window
    curl http://$(pulumi stack output IpAddress)
    Hello, World!
  7. From there, feel free to experiment. Simply making edits and running pulumi up will incrementally update your stack.

Cleaning up#

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

Terminal window
pulumi destroy
pulumi stack rm
