Armpit

Manage Azure cloud resources imperatively using TypeScript.

• Write automation scripts in TypeScript with the features the language offers.
• Leverage the Azure CLI with simple result serialization and easy argument passing via Execa.
• Use API based upsert and get helpers, or work directly against the Azure SDK.
• Run steps asynchronously for improved performance in more complex scripts using async and Promise features.
• Handle complex scenarios using TypeScript language features for branching or iteration.

import type { SkuName, StorageAccount } from "@azure/arm-storage";
import az from "armpit";
const sku: SkuName = "Standard_LRS";
const name = "garbagefile";
await az.account.ensureActiveAccount();
const rg = await az.group("samples", "centralus");
const sa = await rg<StorageAccount>`storage account create -n ${name} --sku ${sku} --kind StorageV2`;
console.log(`Storage account ready: ${sa.name}`);

For more samples, see the samples workspace.

• This project depends on the Azure CLI to function. While it does use the SDK for some features, the core functionality and authentication is handled via the az command line tools.

1. Start with a clean slate typescript module or use an existing typescript module. See the sample tsconfig.json and package.json for inspiration.
2. Install the package to use the tools: npm i armpit
3. Write your script.
4. Run your script. I like tsx but it's your script, so do what works for you. Example: npx tsx doTheThings.ts
