It is July, and the summer is in full swing. I got a nice break from travel, and now I’m headed to Microsoft Ready\/Inspire next week. Say hi if you are at either conference!\nIn the meantime, enjoy these highlights from the Azure DevOps community.<\/p>\n
End-to-end CI\/CD automation using Azure DevOps unified Yaml-defined Pipelines<\/a> Analyze your repository with Azure Pipelines<\/a> A CI\/CD Pipeline with Azure DevOps and AWS Managed Kubernetes<\/a> Using Azure CLI with PowerShell: error handling explained<\/a> Azure DevOps with React<\/a>
\nThis post from Melony Qin is an excellent walkthrough of deploying your application using the new YAML CI\/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps. The solution builds and deploys an App Service infrastructure, and then builds, tests and deploys a Node.js application into multiple environments using a multi-stage YAML pipeline.<\/p>\n
\nThis article from SonarCloud.io walks you through analyzing your BitBucket repositories in Azure Pipelines. Once you set up the SonarCloud extension in Azure DevOps, you can use the \nSonar Analysis tasks<\/a> in your Continuous Integration pipelines to identify vulnerabilities, bugs, code smells, and more on your repository branches. And, of course, the same process would work with other types of Git repositories as well!<\/p>\n
\nDid you know you can deploy from Azure DevOps to any cloud? This post from David Henry features a CI\/CD pipeline in Azure Pipelines deploying an application to the AWS managed Kubernetes service, EKS. It follows an important principle of “Build once, deploy anywhere”, deploying the same Docker image to multiple environments.<\/p>\n
\nRob Bos discovered that when you use the Azure CLI via the PowerShell task in Azure Pipelines, the PowerShell script continues on error, and the pipeline still executes as if no error occurred. Luckily, there is a way to get the Azure CLI command output, and check it in PowerShell to identify errors. Read this blog post to learn how!<\/p>\n
\nThis is a great post by Gosia Borzecka on creating a CI\/CD pipeline for a Node.js application using React and Gatsby. Gosia uses Azure Pipelines to auto-generate a YAML CI pipeline for her GitHub repository, and then extends it to complete the Build and Release, deploying the application via FTP.<\/p>\n
