Azure Management Libraries for Java

This README is based on the latest released preview version (1.0 beta 5). If you are looking for other releases, see More Information

The Azure Management Libraries for Java is a higher-level, object-oriented API for managing Azure resources.

1.0 beta 5 is a developer preview that supports major parts of:

• Azure Virtual Machines and VM Extensions
• Virtual Machine Scale Sets
• Managed Disks
• Storage
• Networking (virtual networks, subnets, network interfaces, IP addresses, network security groups, load balancers, DNS, traffic managers and application gateways)
• Resource Manager
• SQL Database (databases, firewalls and elastic pools)
• App Service (Web Apps)
• Key Vault, Redis, CDN and Batch.

The next preview version of the Azure Management Libraries for Java is a work in-progress. We will be adding support for more Azure services and applying finishing touches to the API.

Azure Authentication

The Azure class is the simplest entry point for creating and interacting with Azure resources.

Azure azure = Azure.authenticate(credFile).withDefaultSubscription();

Create a Virtual Machine

You can create a virtual machine instance by using a define() … create() method chain.

System.out.println("Creating a Linux VM");

VirtualMachine linuxVM = azure.virtualMachines().define("myLinuxVM")
	.withRegion(Region.US_EAST)
	.withNewResourceGroup(rgName)
	.withNewPrimaryNetwork("10.0.0.0/28")
	.withPrimaryPrivateIpAddressDynamic()
	.withNewPrimaryPublicIpAddress("mylinuxvmdns")
	.withPopularLinuxImage(KnownLinuxVirtualMachineImage.UBUNTU_SERVER_16_04_LTS)
	.withRootUsername("tirekicker")
	.withSsh(sshKey)
	.withSize(VirtualMachineSizeTypes.STANDARD_D3_V2)
	.create();
	
System.out.println("Created a Linux VM: " + linuxVM.id());

Update a Virtual Machine

You can update a virtual machine instance by using an update() … apply() method chain.

linuxVM.update()
	.withNewDataDisk(20,  lun,  CachingTypes.READ_WRITE)
	.apply();

Create a Virtual Machine Scale Set

You can create a virtual machine scale set instance by using another define() … create() method chain.

 VirtualMachineScaleSet virtualMachineScaleSet = azure.virtualMachineScaleSets()
     .define(vmssName)
     .withRegion(Region.US_EAST)
     .withExistingResourceGroup(rgName)
     .withSku(VirtualMachineScaleSetSkuTypes.STANDARD_D3_V2)
     .withExistingPrimaryNetworkSubnet(network, "Front-end")
     .withPrimaryInternetFacingLoadBalancer(loadBalancer1)
     .withPrimaryInternetFacingLoadBalancerBackends(backendPoolName1, backendPoolName2)
     .withPrimaryInternetFacingLoadBalancerInboundNatPools(natPool50XXto22, natPool60XXto23)
     .withoutPrimaryInternalLoadBalancer()
     .withPopularLinuxImage(KnownLinuxVirtualMachineImage.UBUNTU_SERVER_16_04_LTS)
     .withRootUsername(userName)
     .withSsh(sshKey)
     .withNewDataDisk(100)
     .withNewDataDisk(100, 1, CachingTypes.READ_WRITE)
     .withNewDataDisk(100, 2, CachingTypes.READ_WRITE, StorageAccountTypes.STANDARD_LRS)
     .withCapacity(3)
     .create();

Create a Network Security Group

You can create a network security group instance by using another define() … create() method chain.

NetworkSecurityGroup frontEndNSG = azure.networkSecurityGroups().define(frontEndNSGName)
    .withRegion(Region.US_EAST)
    .withNewResourceGroup(rgName)
    .defineRule("ALLOW-SSH")
        .allowInbound()
        .fromAnyAddress()
        .fromAnyPort()
        .toAnyAddress()
        .toPort(22)
        .withProtocol(NetworkSecurityRule.Protocol.TCP)
        .withPriority(100)
        .withDescription("Allow SSH")
        .attach()
    .defineRule("ALLOW-HTTP")
        .allowInbound()
        .fromAnyAddress()
        .fromAnyPort()
        .toAnyAddress()
        .toPort(80)
        .withProtocol(NetworkSecurityRule.Protocol.TCP)
        .withPriority(101)
        .withDescription("Allow HTTP")
        .attach()
    .create();

Create an Application Gateway

You can create a application gateway instance by using another define() … create() method chain.

ApplicationGateway applicationGateway = azure.applicationGateways().define("myFirstAppGateway")
    .withRegion(Region.US_EAST)
    .withExistingResourceGroup(resourceGroup)
    // Request routing rule for HTTP from public 80 to public 8080
    .defineRequestRoutingRule("HTTP-80-to-8080")
        .fromPublicFrontend()
        .fromFrontendHttpPort(80)
        .toBackendHttpPort(8080)
        .toBackendIpAddress("11.1.1.1")
        .toBackendIpAddress("11.1.1.2")
        .toBackendIpAddress("11.1.1.3")
        .toBackendIpAddress("11.1.1.4")
        .attach()
    .withExistingPublicIpAddress(publicIpAddress)
    .create();

Create a Web App

You can create a Web App instance by using another define() … create() method chain.

WebApp webApp = azure.webApps()
    .define(appName)
    .withNewResourceGroup(rgName)
    .withNewAppServicePlan(planName)
    .withRegion(Region.US_WEST)
    .withPricingTier(AppServicePricingTier.STANDARD_S1)
    .create();

Create a SQL Database

You can create a SQL server instance by using another define() … create() method chain.

SqlServer sqlServer = azure.sqlServers().define(sqlServerName)
    .withRegion(Region.US_EAST)
    .withNewResourceGroup(rgName)
    .withAdministratorLogin("adminlogin123")
    .withAdministratorPassword("myS3cureP@ssword")
    .withNewFirewallRule("10.0.0.1")
    .withNewFirewallRule("10.2.0.1", "10.2.0.10")
    .create();

Then, you can create a SQL database instance by using another define() … create() method chain.

SqlDatabase database = sqlServer.databases().define("myNewDatabase")
    .create();
