This project provides a Ruby package for Azure Service Management, which makes it easy to access and manage Microsoft Azure Services like Storage, Service Bus and Virtual Machines.
- Azure Service Management (ASM) or Classic: Supported by most existing Azure resources.
If you're looking for Azure Resource Management (ARM), preview version of the Ruby SDK is available here
Information on Azure deployment models: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/azure-classic-rm/
- Cloud Service Management
- SQL Database Server Management
- Storage Account Management
- Virtual Network Management
- Storage Azure Storage is now availabe in its own preview gem and GitHub repo
- Service Bus
- Ruby 2+
Note: x64 Ruby for Windows is known to have some compatibility issues.
You can install the azure rubygem package directly.
gem install azure
Azure storage is in its own azure-storage gem and GitHub repo
You can use this SDK against the Microsoft Azure Services in the cloud, or against the local Storage Emulator if you are on Windows. Service Bus and Microsoft Azure Service Management emulation are not supported. Of course, to use the Microsoft Azure Services in the cloud, you need to first create a Microsoft Azure account. After that, you can get the information you need to configure Storage and Service Bus from the Microsoft Azure Portal.
There are two ways you can set up the connections:
- Against Microsoft Azure Services in the cloud
require "azure"
Azure.storage_account_name = "<your azure storage account name>"
Azure.storage_access_key = "<your azure storage access key>"
# Configure these 3 properties to use Service Bus
Azure.sb_namespace = "<your azure service bus namespace>"
Azure.sb_access_key = "<your azure service bus access key>"
Azure.sb_issuer = "<your azure service bus issuer>"
# Configure these 3 properties to use Service Management. We support passwordless pfx & pem cert formats.
Azure.management_certificate = "<path to your *.pem or *.pfx>"
Azure.subscription_id = "<your Subscriptionid>"
# Configure a ca_cert.pem file if you are having issues with ssl peer verification
Azure.ca_file = "./ca_file.pem"
# Or create a specific instance of an Azure.client, which will inherit your default configuration settings.
client = Azure.client(storage_account_name: "your account name", storage_access_key: "your access key")
- Against local Emulator (Windows Only)
require "azure"
# Configure these 2 properties to use local Storage Emulator
Azure.storage_account_name = "devstoreaccount1"
Azure.storage_access_key = "Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw=="
Azure.storage_blob_host = "http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1"
Azure.storage_queue_host = "http://127.0.0.1:10001/devstoreaccount1"
Azure.storage_table_host = "http://127.0.0.1:10002/devstoreaccount1"
# For Azure Government make sure to provide the full URI to the endpoint
# End point mapping at https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/azure-government-developer-guide/

# Local Service Management emulation is not supported

Currently the sdk supports *.pem or *.pfx (passwordless pfx) for service management operations. Following are the steps discussed on various cert operations.
- To create a pfx from the publishsettings, simply download the publishsettings file for your subscription
https://manage.windowsazure.com/publishsettings. Make sure you have this gem installed and
run
pfxer transform --in [path to your .publishsettings file]
. This will create a .pfx from your publish settings file which can be supplied as a cert parameter for Service Management Commands.
- Using the following openssl commands to create a cert and upload to Azure Management
- Generate public and private
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout cert.pem -out cert.pem
- Generate public .cer for Azure upload
openssl x509 -inform pem -in cert.pem -outform der -out mgmt.cer
- Upload the
mgmt.cer
to Azure Management through https://management.azure.com - Use cert.pem as your cert parameter for Service Management Commands.
- Generate public and private
- Fork it
- Create your feature branch (
git checkout -b my-new-feature
) - Commit your changes (
git commit -am 'Add some feature'
) - Push to the branch (
git push origin my-new-feature
) - Create new Pull Request
To get the source code of the SDK via git just type:
git clone https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-ruby.git
cd ./azure-sdk-for-ruby
Run bundler to install all the gem dependencies:
bundle install
If you would like to run the integration test suite, you will need to setup environment variables which will be used during the integration tests. These tests will use these credentials to run live tests against Azure with the provided credentials (you will be charged for usage, so verify the clean up scripts did their job at the end of a test run).
The root of the project contains a .env_sample file. This dot file is a sample of the actual environment vars needed to run the integration tests.
Do the following to prepare your environment for integration tests:
- Copy .env_sample to .env relative to root of the project dir
- Update .env with your credentials .env is in the .gitignore, so should only reside locally
Azure Service Management integration tests use VCR, so they are recorded and can be easily played back without consuming any Azure live resources.
You can use the following commands to run:
- All the tests:
rake test
. This will run integration tests if you have .env file or env vars setup - A specific suite of tests:
rake test:unit
,rake test:integration
,rake test:integration:blob
, etc. - one particular test file:
ruby -I"lib:test" "<path of the test file>"
To run VCR tests:
- Set the following environment variable
INTEG_RECORDED = true
, then runrake test:recorded
Running the command yard
will generate the API documentation in the ./doc
directory.
If you encounter any bugs with the library please file an issue in the Issues section of the project.
For documentation on Azure PowerShell. For documentation on Azure CLI.
