majiayu000 ARM Templates & Bicep
Deploy Azure infrastructure with ARM templates and Bicep.
Bicep Example
param location string = resourceGroup().location
param vmName string
resource vm 'Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines@2023-03-01' = {
name: vmName
location: location
properties: {
hardwareProfile: {
vmSize: 'Standard_B2s'
}
osProfile: {
computerName: vmName
adminUsername: 'azureuser'
}
}
}
output vmId string = vm.id
Deployment
# Deploy Bicep
az deployment group create \
--resource-group mygroup \
--template-file main.bicep \
--parameters vmName=myvm
# Deploy ARM
az deployment group create \
--resource-group mygroup \
--template-file template.json \
--parameters @parameters.json
Best Practices
- Use Bicep over JSON ARM
- Implement modules for reusability
- Use parameter files per environment
- Validate before deployment
