Deploy to Linux VMs in an environment

[!INCLUDE version-eq-azure-devops]

In this quickstart, you learn how to set up an Azure DevOps pipeline for deployment to multiple Linux virtual machine (VM) resources in an environment. You can use these instructions for any app that publishes a web deployment package.

Prerequisites

JavaScript

For JavaScript or Node.js apps, at least two Linux VMs set up with Nginx on Azure.

Java

For Java Spring Boot and Spring Cloud based apps, at least two Linux VMs created in Azure using the Java 13 on Ubuntu 20.04 template, which provides a fully supported OpenJDK-based runtime.

Fork the sample code

Note

Petclinic is a Spring Boot application built using Maven.

Create an environment with Linux VMs

You can add VMs as resources within environments and target them for multi-VM deployments. The deployment history for the environment provides traceability from the VM to the commit.

Add a VM resource

  1. In your Azure DevOps project, go to Pipelines > Environments and then select Create environment or New environment.

  2. On the first New environment screen, add a Name and an optional Description.

  3. Under Resource, select Virtual machines, and then select Next.

  4. On the next New environment screen, choose Linux under Operating system.

  5. Copy the Linux registration script. The script is the same for all the Linux VMs added to the environment.

    :::image type="content" source="media/vm-creation.png" alt-text="Screenshot of VM creation.":::

    [!NOTE] The Personal Access Token (PAT) of the signed in user is pre-inserted in the script and expires after three hours.

  6. Select Close, and note that the new environment is created.

  7. Run the copied script on each target VM that you want to register with the environment.

    [!NOTE] If the VM already has another agent running on it, provide a unique name for agent to register with the environment.

Once the VM is registered, it appears as a resource under the Resources tab of the environment.

:::image type="content" source="media/vm-resourceview.png" alt-text="Screenshot of VM resource view.":::

To copy the script again for creating more resources, for example if your PAT expires, select Add resource on the environment's page.

Add and manage tags

Tags are a way to target a specific set of VMs in an environment for deployment. There's no limit to the number of tags that you can use. Tags are limited to 256 characters each.

You can add tags or remove tags for VMs in the interactive registration script or through the UI by selecting More actions :::image type="icon" source="../../media/icons/more-actions.png" border="false"::: for a VM resource. For this quickstart, assign a different tag to each VM in your environment.

Define a CI build pipeline

You need a continuous integration (CI) build pipeline that publishes your web app, and a deployment script to run locally on the Linux server. Set up your CI build pipeline based on the runtime you want to use.

Important

During GitHub procedures, you might be prompted to create a GitHub service connection or be redirected to GitHub to sign in, install Azure Pipelines, or authorize Azure Pipelines. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the process. For more information, see Access to GitHub repositories.

  1. In your Azure DevOps project, select Pipelines > Create Pipeline, and then select GitHub as the location of your source code.
  2. On the Select a repository screen, select your forked sample repository.
  3. On the Configure your pipeline screen, select Starter pipeline. Azure Pipelines generates a YAML file called azure-pipelines.yml for your pipeline.
  4. Select the dropdown caret next to Save and run, select Save, and then select Save again. The file is saved to your forked GitHub repository.

Edit the code

Select Edit, and replace the contents of the azure-pipelines.yml file with the following code. You add to this YAML in future steps.

JavaScript

The following code builds your Node.js project with npm.

    trigger:
    - main
    
    pool:
      vmImage: ubuntu-latest
    
    stages:
    - stage: Build
      displayName: Build stage
      jobs:  
      - job: Build
        displayName: Build
        steps:
        - task: UseNode@1
          inputs:
            version: '16.x'
          displayName: 'Install Node.js'
        - script: |
            npm install
            npm run build --if-present
            npm run test --if-present
          displayName: 'npm install, build and test'
        - task: ArchiveFiles@2
          displayName: 'Archive files'
          inputs:
            rootFolderOrFile: '$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)'
            includeRootFolder: false
            archiveType: zip
            archiveFile: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/$(Build.BuildId).zip
            replaceExistingArchive: true
        - upload: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/$(Build.BuildId).zip
          artifact: drop

For more information, review the steps in Build your Node.js app with gulp for creating a build.

Java

The following code builds your Java project and runs tests with Apache Maven.

    trigger:
    - main
    
    pool:
      vmImage: ubuntu-latest
    
    stages:
    - stage: Build
      displayName: Build stage
      jobs:  
      - job: Build
        displayName: Build Maven Project
        steps:
        - task: Maven@4
          displayName: 'Maven Package'
          inputs:
            mavenPomFile: 'pom.xml'
        - task: CopyFiles@2
          displayName: 'Copy Files to artifact staging directory'
          inputs:
            SourceFolder: '$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)'
            Contents: '**/target/*.?(war|jar)'
            TargetFolder: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)
        - upload: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)
          artifact: drop

For more information, review the steps in Build your Java app with Maven for creating a build.

Run your pipeline

Select Validate and save, then select Save, select Run, and select Run again.

After your pipeline runs, verify that the job ran successfully and that you see a published artifact.

Deploy to the Linux VMs

  1. Edit your pipeline to add the following deployment job. Replace <environment name> with the name of the environment you created earlier. Select specific VMs from the environment to receive the deployment by specifying the <VM tag> that you defined for each VM.

    jobs:  
- deployment: VMDeploy
  displayName: Web deploy
  environment:
    name:  <environment name>
    resourceType: VirtualMachine
    tags: <VM tag> # Update value for VMs to deploy to
  strategy:

    For more information, see the complete jobs.deployment definition.

    For more information about the environment keyword and resources targeted by a deployment job, see the jobs.deployment.environment definition.

  2. Specify either runOnce or rolling as a deployment strategy.

    • runOnce is the simplest deployment strategy. The preDeploy deploy, routeTraffic, and postRouteTraffic lifecycle hooks each execute once. Then either on: success or on: failure executes.

      The following code shows a deployment job for runOnce:

      jobs:
- deployment: VMDeploy
  displayName: Web deploy
  environment:
    name: <environment name>
    resourceType: VirtualMachine
    tags: <VM tag>
  strategy:
    runOnce:
      deploy:
        steps:
        - script: echo my first deployment

    • The following code shows a YAML snippet for the rolling deployment strategy, using a Java pipeline. You can update up to five targets in each iteration. The maxParallel parameter specifies the number of targets that can be deployed to in parallel.

      The maxParallel selection accounts for absolute number or percentage of targets that must remain available at any time, excluding the targets being deployed to, and determines success and failure conditions during deployment.

      jobs: 
- deployment: VMDeploy
  displayName: web
  environment:
    name: <environment name>
    resourceType: VirtualMachine
    tags: <VM tag>
  strategy:
      rolling:
        maxParallel: 2  #for percentages, mention as x%
        preDeploy:
          steps:
          - download: current
            artifact: drop
          - script: echo initialize, cleanup, backup, install certs
        deploy:
          steps:
          - task: Bash@3
            inputs:
              targetType: 'inline'
              script: |
                # Modify deployment script based on the app type
                echo "Starting deployment script run"
                sudo java -jar '$(Pipeline.Workspace)/drop/**/target/*.jar'
        routeTraffic:
          steps:
          - script: echo routing traffic
        postRouteTraffic:
          steps:
          - script: echo health check post-route traffic
        on:
          failure:
            steps:
            - script: echo Restore from backup! This is on failure
          success:
            steps:
            - script: echo Notify! This is on success

      With each run of this job, deployment history is recorded against the environment you created and registered the VMs in.

Access pipeline traceability in environment

The environment Deployments view provides complete traceability of commits and work items and a cross-pipeline deployment history for the environment.
