Azure Native TypeScript Pulumi Template

This template provides a minimal, ready-to-go Pulumi program for deploying Azure resources using the Azure Native provider in TypeScript. It establishes a basic infrastructure stack that you can use as a foundation for more complex deployments.

When to Use This Template

• You need a quick boilerplate for Azure Native deployments with Pulumi and TypeScript
• You want to create a Resource Group and Storage Account as a starting point
• You’re exploring Pulumi’s Azure Native SDK and TypeScript support

Prerequisites

• An active Azure subscription
• Node.js (LTS) installed
• A Pulumi account and CLI already installed and configured
• Azure credentials available (e.g., via az login or environment variables)

Usage

Scaffold a new project from the Pulumi registry template:

pulumi new azure-typescript

Follow the prompts to:

1. Name your project and stack
2. (Optionally) override the default Azure location

Once the project is created:

cd <your-project-name>
pulumi config set azure-native:location <your-region>
pulumi up

Project Layout

.
├── Pulumi.yaml       # Project metadata & template configuration
├── index.ts          # Main Pulumi program defining resources
├── package.json      # Node.js dependencies and project metadata
└── tsconfig.json     # TypeScript compiler options

Configuration

Pulumi configuration lets you customize deployment parameters.

• azure-native:location (string)
  • Description: Azure region to provision resources in
  • Default: WestUS2

Set a custom location before deployment:

pulumi config set azure-native:location eastus

Resources Created

1. Resource Group: A container for all other resources
2. Storage Account: A StorageV2 account with Standard_LRS SKU

Outputs

After pulumi up, the following output is exported:

• primaryStorageKey: The primary access key for the created Storage Account

Retrieve it with:

pulumi stack output primaryStorageKey

Next Steps

• Extend this template by adding more Azure Native resources (e.g., Networking, App Services)
• Modularize your stack with Pulumi Components for reusable architectures
• Integrate with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, etc.)
