Project description

Microsoft Azure CLI 2.0 - Preview
==================================

A great cloud needs great tools; we're excited to introduce *Azure CLI 2.0 - Preview*, our next generation multi-platform command line experience for Azure.

Usage
=====
.. code-block:: console

$ az [ group ] [ subgroup ] [ command ] {parameters}


Getting Started
=====================

After installation, use the ``az configure`` command to help setup your environment.

.. code-block:: console

$ az configure

For usage and help content, pass in the ``-h`` parameter, for example:

.. code-block:: console

$ az storage -h
$ az vm create -h

Highlights
===========

Here are a few features and concepts that can help you get the most out of the Azure CLI 2.0 Preview

The following examples are showing using the ``--output table`` format, you can change your default using the ``$ az configure`` command.

Tab Completion
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We support tab-completion for groups, commands, and some parameters

.. code-block:: console

# looking up resource group and name
$ az vm show -g [tab][tab]
AccountingGroup RGOne WebPropertiesRG
$ az vm show -g WebPropertiesRG -n [tab][tab]
StoreVM Bizlogic
$ az vm show -g WebPropertiesRG -n Bizlogic

Querying
^^^^^^^^

You can use the ``--query`` parameter and the JMESPath query syntax to customize your output.

.. code-block:: console

$ az vm list --query '[].{name:name,os:storageProfile.osDisk.osType}'
Name Os
---------------------- -------
storevm Linux
bizlogic Linux
demo32111vm Windows
dcos-master-39DB807E-0 Linux

Creating a new Linux VM
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The following block creates a new resource group in the 'westus' region, then creates a new Ubuntu VM. We automatically provide a series of smart defaults, such as setting up SSH with your ``~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub`` key. For more details, try ``az vm create -h``.

.. code-block:: console

$ az group create -l westus -n MyGroup
Name Location
------- ----------
MyGroup westus

$ az vm create -g MyGroup -n MyVM --image ubuntults
MacAddress ResourceGroup PublicIpAddress PrivateIpAddress
----------------- --------------- ----------------- ------------------
00-0D-3A-30-B2-D7 MyGroup 52.160.111.118 10.0.0.4

$ ssh 52.160.111.118
