Deploy

Press the above button.

Or, do it manually with the Azure CLI and the provided azuredeploy.json ARM-file:

# create resource group for the resources
az group create --location westeurope --name varshow

# create the resources and passing the appName
az group deployment create -g varshow --template-file azuredeploy.json --parameters appName=varshow

In this example we name both the resource group and the function app varshow.

Other parameters you can pass when creating the resources are:

• serverFarmId (override if you want to use a pre-existing App Service plan)
• dockerImage (default is varianter\varshow:latest, override if you want to use another image)
