bicep-samples

This repository contains a collection of Bicep templates and deployment examples for Azure resources. The lab environment is designed to be deployed using GitHub Codespaces, providing a containerized dev environment with all dependencies included.

Prerequisites

• GitHub account

Steps to Deploy the Lab

1. Create a Codespace from the GitHub Repository

   • Navigate to the GitHub repository for this lab.
   • Click on the Code button.
   • Select the Codespaces tab.
   • Click on Create codespace on main (or the appropriate branch).

2. Login to Azure

   Open a terminal in the Codespace and run the following command to login to your Azure account:

   az login

   If you have issues signing in, try using:

   az login --use-device-code

3. Navigate to an Example Folder

   Each example is self-contained in its own folder. For example, to deploy an AKS cluster:

   cd aks-deployment

4. Review and Update Parameters

   Edit the parameter files (e.g., *.bicepparam) in the example folder to match your environment and requirements.

5. Run the Deployment Script

   Most examples include a deployment script (e.g., deploy.sh). Run the script to deploy the resources:

   ./deploy.sh

Clean Up the Lab

When you're ready to clean up the lab environment, use the provided destroy script (if available) or delete the resource group via the Azure CLI:

az group delete --name <your-resource-group>
