By extending gobuffalo, we seek to empower rapid web developers to deploy to Azure easily, and even generate code that will integrate well with Azure services.

buffalo azure provision [flags]
It's fun to tinker with a website locally, but at some point you've got to get it hosted. Use the provision command to create the necessary infrastructure and services to run your website on Microsoft's Cloud. All you need is to use the Dockerfile already generated by Buffalo to create an image that will be run in an Azure Web App for Containers.
Read a comprehensive walk-through of using Docker and the buffalo azure provision command to have your Buffalo
application running on Azure in no-time.
buffalo generate eventgrid {name} [flags]
Azure Event Grid is an HTTP based messaging solution, that seeks to empower you while writing event-driven reactive web applications. Many Azure Services are already wired up to start informing you when their events happen using Event Grid.
Running this command will add an action to your buffalo application that can be registered with an Event Grid Topic. It automatically responds to Subscription Validation events, and dispatches to different methods based on the Event Type string in an Event definition.
This is an extension, so before you install Buffalo-Azure, make sure you've already installed Buffalo.
Use go get to acquire and install from source. Versions of the project after v0.2.0 use
Go modules exclusively, which means you'll need Go 1.11 or later.
For more information on modules, see the Go modules wiki.
go get -u github.com/Azure/buffalo-azureThis isn't supported yet, but if you'd like to see it, go get it moved up our backlog by thumbs-upping or commenting on Azure/buffalo-azure#37.
While working with Buffalo-Azure, there are two options for establishing an identity that should be used for any operation requiring Azure authentication:
This option requires manual attention, but is simple. Just add --use-device-auth to the command line and you'll be
prompted to login with your identity. If you omit data that can be inferred, it may be slow, but Buffalo-Azure will just
figure it out for you.
Using the command-line arguments --client-id, --client-secret, and --tenant-id, or the corresponding environment
variables AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET, AZURE_TENANT_ID, one can specify a Service Principal's identity.
To learn more about getting started with Service Principals you can look here:

This is an experiment by the Azure Developer Experience team to expand our usefulness to Go developers beyond generating SDKs. This is not officially supported by the Azure DevEx team, Azure, or Microsoft.
