Challenge 08 – Continuous Delivery (CD)

< Previous Challenge - Home - Next Challenge >

Introduction

In DevOps after we automate our build process, we want to automate our release process, we do this with a technique called Continuous Delivery (CD). Please take a moment to review this brief article talking about why this is important.

Description

In this challenge, we will use GitHub Actions to deploy our container image to the dev environment.

OPTIONAL: Use your code editor (VS Code) to update your workflow file locally on your machine. Remember to commit and push any changes.

Extend the workflow you created in Challenge #7 to:

  • Configure your dev environment to pull the latest container image from ACR.

    • Login to Azure using your service principal, if needed (hint)
    • Use the Azure/webapps-deploy@v2 action to update the Web App to pull the latest image from ACR. Key parameters to configure:
      • app-name - the name of the wep app instance to target
      • images - the path to the image you pushed to ACR

  • Make a small change to your application (i.e.,/Application/aspnet-core-dotnet-core/Views/Home/Index.cshtml), commit, push, monitor the workflow and see if the change shows up on the dev instance of the website.

  • Configure your workflow to deploy to your test and prod environments and after a manual approval for each environment.

Success Criteria

  1. A small change to /Application/aspnet-core-dotnet-core/Views/Home/Index.cshtml automatically shows up on the website running in the dev environment (i.e., <prefix>devops-dev.azurewebsites.net).
  2. Manual approval is required to deploy to the test and prod environments.
