Microsoft Azure SDK for Ruby

This project provides a Ruby package that makes it easy to access and manage Microsoft Azure Services like Storage, Service Bus and Virtual Machines.

Azure Resource Management (preview)

Compute (Virtual Machines, Images, Extensions, Availability Sets, etc...)
Network (Load Balancers, Network Gateways, Security Groups, etc...)
Storage Accounts (Account Creation, Usage Operations, etc...)
Resources (Resource Groups, Resource Providers, Template Deployments, Operations, etc...)

Azure Service Management

Cloud Service Management
SQL Database Server Management
Storage Account Management
Virtual Network Management

Supported Ruby Versions

Ruby 2+

Note: x64 Ruby for Windows is known to have some compatibility issues.

Getting Started with Azure Resource Manager Usage (Preview)

Install the rubygem packages

You can install the azure rubygem packages directly.

gem install azure_mgmt_compute
gem install azure_mgmt_storage
gem install azure_mgmt_resources
gem install azure_mgmt_network

Or use them in your Gemfile.

gem 'azure_mgmt_storage'
gem 'azure_mgmt_compute'
gem 'azure_mgmt_resources'
gem 'azure_mgmt_network'

Be aware the Azure Resource Manager Ruby SDK is in preview and will likely have breaking interface changes in upcoming releases.

Authentication

The first step to using the SDK is authentication and permissioning. For people unfamilar with Azure this may be one of the more difficult concepts. For a reference on setting up a service principal from the command line see Authenticating a service principal with Azure Resource Manager or Unattended Authentication. For a more robust explanation of authentication in Azure, see Developer’s guide to auth with Azure Resource Manager API.

After creating the service principal, you should have three pieces of information, a client id (GUID), client secret (string) and tenant id (GUID) or domain name (string).

Getting Started Samples

The tests for the libraries should provide a good example of how to get started with the clients. You can also see the readme for each of the libraries Compute, Network, Storage, or Resources.

Getting Started with Azure Service Management

Install the rubygem package

You can install the azure rubygem package directly.

gem install azure

Setup Connection

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:

via code
via environment variables

Via Code

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"

  # Local Service Bus Emulator is not supported
  # Local Service Management emulation is not supported

Usage

Storage

Setup your Storage Credentials

# Require the azure rubygem
require "azure"

# Add your default storage credentials
Azure.storage_account_name = "your account name"
Azure.storage_access_key = "your access key"

# Or create a specific instance of an Azure.client

Getting Started with Certificates

Currently the sdk supports *.pem or *.pfx (passwordless pfx) for service management operations. Following are the steps discussed on various cert operations.

Get Started with Publish Settings

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.

Get Started with OpenSSL

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.

Development Environment Setup

Download Source Code

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

Then, run bundler to install all the gem dependencies:

bundle install

Setup the Environment for Integration Tests

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

Run Tests

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>"

Generate Documentation

Running the command yard will generate the API documentation in the ./doc directory.

Provide Feedback

If you encounter any bugs with the library please file an issue in the Issues section of the project.
