How to create Azure WebApp in App Service using Powershell commands
I am trying to create Azure Web App in App Service environment using Powershell commands
I still can't see to indicate that my app serving framework should be used with the New-AzureWebApp or New-AzureAppServicePlan commands
In the web portal, you specify the App Service environment as a location ... but that is not possible with Powershell commands (they confirm the location is a valid "regular" Azure location).
To answer my own question:
I found that I can create a new web application using the New-AzureResourceGroup command and a custom JSON template. I couldn't find the templates that provided the web app in ASE in the gallery, but by referring to developing a template that uses the portal and modifying the gallery template Microsoft.WebSite.0.3.17-preview.json from the gallery, I could create a WebApp using the command:
New-AzureResourceGroup -Name $ResourceGroupName -Location "Australia Southeast" -TemplateFile $TemplateFile -siteName $SiteName -hostingPlanName $HostingPlanName -hostingEnvironment $HostingEnvironment -siteLocation "Australia Southeast" -workerSize 0 -sku "Premium"
With the $ TemplateFile variable containing the path to the following template file:
http://pastebin.com/VefC0Dz2
This is just a 0.3.17-preview template from the gallery with the following changes:
Add hostingEnvironment parameter
"parameters": {
"hostingEnvironment": {
"type": "string",
"defaultValue": ""
},
Add the hostingEnvironment property to the Microsoft.Web / serverfarms resource:
"resources": [
{
"apiVersion": "2014-06-01",
"name": "[parameters('hostingPlanName')]",
"type": "Microsoft.Web/serverfarms",
"location": "[parameters('siteLocation')]",
"properties": {
"name": "[parameters('hostingPlanName')]",
"sku": "[parameters('sku')]",
"workerSize": "[parameters('workerSize')]",
"hostingEnvironment": "[parameters('hostingEnvironment')]",
"numberOfWorkers": 0
}
},
{
"apiVersion": "2014-06-01",
"name": "[parameters('siteName')]",
"type": "Microsoft.Web/sites",
"location": "[parameters('siteLocation')]",
"tags": {
"[concat('hidden-related:', '/subscriptions/', parameters('subscriptionId'),'/resourcegroups/', parameters('serverFarmResourceGroup'), '/providers/Microsoft.Web/serverfarms/', parameters('hostingPlanName'))]": "empty"
},
"dependsOn": [
"[concat('Microsoft.Web/serverfarms/', parameters('hostingPlanName'))]"
],
"properties": {
"name": "[parameters('siteName')]",
"serverFarm": "[parameters('hostingPlanName')]",
"hostingEnvironment": "[parameters('hostingEnvironment')]"
}
},
I guess this can probably also be done using the Add-AzureResource Command Code, but I haven't tried that yet.
Microsoft added CommandManager ResourceManager to PowerShell. This enables deployment. The website can be created in PowerShell using the following commands:
New-AzureRmResource -Location "West Europe" -Properties $props
-ResourceName "Site1" -ResourceType "microsoft.web/sites"
-ResourceGroupName "ResourceGrp1" -Force
You need to create an object for properties:
$props = @{ HostingEnvironmentId ='/subscriptions/xyz/resourceGroups/ResourceGroup1/providers/Microsoft.Web/hostingEnvironments/ASE1 ServerFarmId = '/subscriptions/XXXX/resourceGroups/EDSGRP1/providers/Microsoft.Web/serverfarms/ASP1' HostingEnvironment = ResourceGroup1 ClientCertEnabled ='True' }
You can get an idea of what property properties are used by using Get-AzureRMResource in the outbound site.
Microsoft recently changed Azure Websites to Azure WebApps. However, the PowerShell cmdlet commands remain the same.
So, you will need to use New-AzureWebsite
