#Azure Management Libraries for Java

This README is based on the latest released preview version (1.0.0-beta3). 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.

1.0.0-beta3 is a developer preview that supports major parts of Azure Virtual Machines, Virtual Machine Scale Sets, Storage, Networking, Resource Manager, Key Vault 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 tweaking the API over the next few months.

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()
    .defineNewDataDisk(dataDiskName)
    .withSizeInGB(20)
    .withCaching(CachingTypes.READ_WRITE)
    .attach()
    .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)
     .withNewStorageAccount(storageAccountName1)
     .withNewStorageAccount(storageAccountName2)
     .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();

#Sample Code

You can find plenty of sample code that illustrates management scenarios in Azure Virtual Machines, Virtual Machine Scale Sets, Storage, Networking, Resource Manager, Key Vault and Batch …

Service	Management Scenario
Virtual Machines	Manage virtual machine Manage availability set List virtual machine images Manage virtual machines using VM extensions List virtual machine extension images
Virtual Machines - parallel execution	Create multiple virtual machines in parallel Create multiple virtual machines with network in parallel
Virtual Machine Scale Sets	Manage virtual machine scale sets (behind an Internet facing load balancer)
Storage	Manage storage accounts
Network	Manage virtual network Manage network interface Manage network security group Manage IP address Manage Internet facing load balancers Manage internal load balancers
Resource Groups	Manage resource groups Manage resources Deploy resources with ARM templates Deploy resources with ARM templates (with progress)
Key Vault	Manage key vaults
Batch	Manage batch accounts
