This repository contains three commands to help you deploy a Spring application to Spring Azure Apps.
- spring asa deploy
When you are done, you can clean up using the command
- spring asa delete-app
- The Spring CLI is installed
- The Azure CLI is installed
You should be logged into Azure and be able to execute the following command
az group list
The ASA commands will use the first resource group returned from the az group list command to create a Spring Service Instance and a Spring Application on Azure.
Refer to the overview section for the definiton of these terms.
To install these commands into the Spring CLI execute the following command
spring command add --from https://github.com/rd-1-2022/udc-asa
An Azure resource group is a container that holds related resources for an Azure solution. A resource group might contain storage, virtual machines, apps, dashboards, services, or almost anything you deal with in Azure.
Refer to the guide How to manage Azure resource groups with the Azure CLI for more information.
In our case, the Azure resource group will contain Azure Spring Apps Service Instances, or simply service instance resource, as well an Azure Spring application, or simply App.
App and Deployment are the two key concepts in the resource model of Azure Spring Apps. In Azure Spring Apps, an App is an abstraction of one business app. One version of code or binary deployed as the App runs in a Deployment. Apps run in an Azure Spring Apps Service Instance, or simply service instance, as shown next.
Refer to the Concept guide on App and deployment in Azure Spring Apps for more information
This command will ask you on the command line which resource group you want to use
Select the group that you want to use, and it will be stored as a variable for later user.
The command will then create a new Azure Spring Application in the Azure Spring Service instance using a command such as
az spring app create --resource-group scdf-demo --service si-mark --name demo --assign-endpoint true
The --name option is set to Maven model variable project-name.
In this case the name is demo
The command will then deploy the app using something similar to
az spring app deploy --resource-group scdf-demo --service si-mark --name demo --artifact-path /home/mark/testing/demo/target/demo-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
The --name option is set to Maven model variable project-name.
In this case the name is demo
The --artifact-path is constructed from knowledge of the Maven model for your Maven project.
This command will delete your application. The other resources, such as the Azure Spring Service instance created with az spring create and the Azure Spring Application created with az spring app create will not be deleted.
Take a look at the files in the directories under .spring/commands/asa and modify them for what makes sense to have a simple getting started experience in your environment.
This specific sequence of steps was taken assuming that after activating your Azure subscription, you will have already had a Azure Resource Group created for you by your administrator.
