Create a web app and deploy code from GitHub
This sample script creates a web app in App Service with its related resources, and then deploys your web app code from a public GitHub repository (without continuous deployment). For GitHub deployment with continuous deployment, see Create a web app with continuous deployment from GitHub.
If needed, install the Azure PowerShell using the instruction found in the Azure PowerShell guide, and then run Connect-AzAccount
to create a connection with Azure. Also, you need a link to GitHub repository that contains the web app code.
Sample script
Note
We recommend that you use the Azure Az PowerShell module to interact with Azure. To get started, see Install Azure PowerShell. To learn how to migrate to the Az PowerShell module, see Migrate Azure PowerShell from AzureRM to Az.
# Replace the following URL with a public GitHub repo URL
$gitrepo="https://github.com/Azure-Samples/app-service-web-dotnet-get-started.git"
$webappname="mywebapp$(Get-Random)"
$location="West Europe"
# Create a resource group.
New-AzResourceGroup -Name myResourceGroup -Location $location
# Create an App Service plan in Free tier.
New-AzAppServicePlan -Name $webappname -Location $location -ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup -Tier Free
# Create a web app.
New-AzWebApp -Name $webappname -Location $location -AppServicePlan $webappname -ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup
# Configure GitHub deployment from your GitHub repo and deploy once.
$PropertiesObject = @{
repoUrl = "$gitrepo";
branch = "master";
isManualIntegration = "true";
}
Set-AzResource -Properties $PropertiesObject -ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup -ResourceType Microsoft.Web/sites/sourcecontrols -ResourceName $webappname/web -ApiVersion 2015-08-01 -Force
Clean up deployment
After the script sample has been run, the following command can be used to remove the resource group, web app, and all related resources.
Remove-AzResourceGroup -Name myResourceGroup -Force
