AzureInfo

Gem Version

BoltOps Badge

Simple library to get current Azure info like subscription_id, tenant_id, group, and location.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'azure_info'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install azure_info

Usage

AzureInfo.group
AzureInfo.location
AzureInfo.subscription_id
AzureInfo.tenant_id

Dependencies

This tool calls out to the az CLI. So the az CLI is required.

Precedence

This library will return values using different sources with this precedence:

  1. Environment variables: ARM_GROUP, ARM_LOCATION, ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, ARM_TENANT_ID
  2. az cli: Usually configured in the ~/.azure/config. Use az configure --list-defaults to double check.
  3. Defaults: A default is set for location=eastus. The other values must be configured.

The config file used by the az command looks something like this:

~/.azure/config

[cloud]
name = AzureCloud

[defaults]
location = eastus

This command is also useful:

az account show

Setting the Defaults with az cli

az login --username EMAIL_ADDRESS -t TENANT_ID
az account set --subscription SUBSCRIPTION_ID
az configure --defaults location=eastus group=RESOURCE_GROUP
