pulumi-azure-native 1.0.0b2

A native Pulumi package for creating and managing Azure resources.

Native Azure Pulumi Provider (preview)

The native Azure Provider for Pulumi lets you use Azure resources in your cloud programs. This provider uses the Azure Resource Manager REST API directly and therefore provides full access to ARM API.

The provider is currently in public preview, and is the recommended provider for new projects targeting Azure. We will attempt to minimize any breaking changes, but it is possible that there will be a few between now and GA (expected this spring).

To use this package, please install the Pulumi CLI first.

Installing

This package is available in many languages in the standard packaging formats.

Node.js (Java/TypeScript)

To use from JavaScript or TypeScript in Node.js, install using either npm:

$ npm install @pulumi/azure-native

or yarn:

$ yarn add @pulumi/azure-native

Python

To use from Python, install using pip:

$ pip install pulumi_azure_native

Go

To use from Go, use go get to grab the latest version of the library

$ go get github.com/pulumi/pulumi-azure-native/sdk

.NET

To use from .NET, install using dotnet add package:

$ dotnet add package Pulumi.AzureNative

Concepts

The @pulumi/azure-native package provides a strongly-typed means to build cloud applications that create and interact closely with Azure resources. Resources are exposed for the entire Azure surface area, including (but not limited to) 'compute', 'keyvault', 'network', 'storage', and more.

The Azure Native provider works directly with the Azure Resource Manager (ARM) platform instead of depending on a handwritten layer as with the previous provider. This approach ensures higher quality and higher fidelity with the Azure platform.

The Azure Native provider is currently in beta. While we try to minimize impact on users, breaking changes may be shipped in minor version updates.
