Set up a CI/CD pipeline with the Azure Cosmos DB Emulator build task in Azure DevOps

APPLIES TO: NoSQL MongoDB Cassandra Gremlin Table

Note

Due to the full removal of Windows 2016 hosted runners on April 1st, 2022, this method of using the Azure Cosmos DB emulator with build task in Azure DevOps is no longer supported. We are actively working on alternative solutions. Meanwhile, you can follow the below instructions to leverage the Azure Cosmos DB emulator which comes pre-installed when using the "windows-2019" agent type.

The Azure Cosmos DB Emulator provides a local environment that emulates the Azure Cosmos DB service for development purposes. The emulator allows you to develop and test your application locally, without creating an Azure subscription or incurring any costs.

PowerShell Task for Emulator

A typical PowerShell based task that will start the Azure Cosmos DB emulator can be scripted as follows:

Example of a job configuration, selecting the "windows-2019" agent type. Screenshot of the job configuration using windows-2019

Example of a task executing the PowerShell script needed to start the emulator.

Screenshot executing the powershell script to start the emulator


# Write your PowerShell commands here.

dir "$env:ProgramFiles\Azure Cosmos DB Emulator\"

Import-Module "$env:ProgramFiles\Azure Cosmos DB Emulator\PSModules\Microsoft.Azure.CosmosDB.Emulator"

$startEmulatorCmd = "Start-CosmosDbEmulator -NoFirewall -NoUI"
Write-Host $startEmulatorCmd
Invoke-Expression -Command $startEmulatorCmd

# Pipe an emulator info object to the output stream

$Emulator = Get-Item "$env:ProgramFiles\Azure Cosmos DB Emulator\Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Emulator.exe"
$IPAddress = Get-NetIPAddress -AddressFamily IPV4 -AddressState Preferred -PrefixOrigin Manual | Select-Object IPAddress

New-Object PSObject @{
Emulator = $Emulator.BaseName
Version = $Emulator.VersionInfo.ProductVersion
Endpoint = @($(hostname), $IPAddress.IPAddress) | ForEach-Object { "https://${_}:8081/" }
MongoDBEndpoint = @($(hostname), $IPAddress.IPAddress) | ForEach-Object { "mongodb://${_}:10255/" }
CassandraEndpoint = @($(hostname), $IPAddress.IPAddress) | ForEach-Object { "tcp://${_}:10350/" }
GremlinEndpoint = @($(hostname), $IPAddress.IPAddress) | ForEach-Object { "http://${_}:8901/" }
TableEndpoint = @($(hostname), $IPAddress.IPAddress) | ForEach-Object { "https://${_}:8902/" }
IPAddress = $IPAddress.IPAddress
}

You also have the option of building your own self-hosted Windows agent if you need to use an agent that doesn't come with the Azure Cosmos DB emulator preinstalled. On your self-hosted agent, you can download the latest emulator's MSI package from https://aka.ms/cosmosdb-emulator using 'curl' or 'wget', then use 'msiexec' to 'quiet' install it. After the install, you can run a similar PowerShell script as the one above to start the emulator.
