Publish-AzureServiceProject

Publish the current service to Windows Azure.

Note

The cmdlets referenced in this documentation are for managing legacy Azure resources that use Service Management APIs. See the Az PowerShell module for cmdlets to manage Azure Resource Manager resources.

Important

Cloud Services (classic) is now deprecated for new customers and will be retired on August 31st, 2024 for all customers. New deployments should use the new Azure Resource Manager based deployment model Azure Cloud Services (extended support).

Description

This topic describes the cmdlet in the 0.8.10 version of the Microsoft Azure PowerShell module. To get the version of the module you're using, in the Azure PowerShell console, type (Get-Module -Name Azure).Version.

The Publish-AzureServiceProject cmdlet publishes the current service to the cloud. You can specify publishing configuration (such as Subscription, StorageAccountName, Location, Slot) on the command line, or in local settings through the Set-AzureServiceProject cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Publish a service project with default values

PS C:\> Publish-AzureServiceProject

This example publishes the current service, using the current service settings and the current Azure publish profile.

Example 2: Create a deployment package

PS C:\> Publish-AzureServiceProject -PackageOnly

This example creates a deployment package (.cspkg) file in the service directory and does not publish to Windows Azure.

Parameters

-AffinityGroup

Specifies the affinity group that you want the service to use.

Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True

Type:String
Aliases:sp

Default value:None
Required:False

-Profile

Specifies the Azure profile from which this cmdlet reads. If you do not specify a profile, this cmdlet reads from the local default profile.

Type:AzureSMProfile
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ServiceName

Specifies the name to be used for the service when publishing to Windows Azure. The name determines part of the label in the cloudapp.net subdomain that is used to address the service when hosted in Windows Azure (that is, name.cloudapp.net). Any name specified while publishing the service overrides the name given when the service was created. (See the New-AzureServiceProject cmdlet).

Type:String
Aliases:sv

Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True

-Slot

The deployment slot to be used for this service. Possible values are 'Staging' and 'Production'. If no slot is specified, the slot provided in the last call to Set-AzureDeploymentSlot is used. If no slot has ever been specified, the 'Production' slot is used.

Type:String
Aliases:sl
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-StorageAccountName

Specifies the Windows Azure storage account name to be used while publishing the service. This value is not used until the service is published. When this parameter is not specified, the value is obtained from the last Set-AzureServiceProject command. If no storage account was ever specified, a storage account matching the name of the service will be used. If no such storage account exists, the cmdlet attempts to create a new one. However, the attempt may fail if a storage account matching the service name exists in another subscription.
