azure-extensions-cli

⚠️⚠️ This tool is intended only for publishers of Azure VM extensions. If you are not an Azure employee or a whitelisted extension publisher, there is nothing here for you.

This command line interface is a simple wrapper on top of RDFE Extension Publishing APIs.

With this command-line interface you can:

Upload an extension .zip package as a new extension or a new version.
Promote versions to required rollout slices.
List all extension versions published.
Get replication status of an extension version.
Mark a version as internal and delete a version.

Usage

Make sure you have:

a subscription ID that has extension publishing enabled
and a .pem file used as the subscription management certificate

Instead of passing these arguments over and over to the CLI, you can simply set environment variables:

export SUBSCRIPTION_ID=xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxx...
export SUBSCRIPTION_CERT=/path/to/cert.pem

If you are always operating on the same extension, you can also set:

export EXTENSION_NAMESPACE=Microsoft.Azure.Extensions
export EXTENSION_NAME=FooExtension

Then use help to explore the commands and arguments.

./azure-extensions-cli --help

NOTE: If you are not familiar with extension publishing process (i.e. slices, behaviors of extension pipeline) you should read the relevant documentation first.
