This is a repo that contains all the currently available Azure Resource Manager templates contributed by the community. These templates are indexed on Azure.com and available to view here http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/templates/
To make sure your template is added to Azure.com index, please follow these guidelines. Any templates that are out of compliance will be added to the blacklist and not be indexed on Azure.com
- Every template must be contained in its own folder. Name this folder something that describes what your template does. Usually this naming pattern looks like appName-osName
- The template file must be named azuredeploy.json
- The template folder must host the scripts that are needed for successful template execution
- The template folder must contain a metadata.json file to allow the template to be indexed on Azure.com
- Guidelines on the metadata file below
- Include a Readme.md file that explains how the template works
- Template parameters should follow camelCasing
- Every parameter in the template must have the description specified using the metadata property. This looks like below
"newStorageAccountName": {
"type": "string",
"metadata": {
"description": "The name of the new storage account created to store the VMs disks"
}
}See the starter template here for more information on passing validation
Here are the required parameters for a valid metadata.json file
To be more consistent with the Visual Studio and Gallery experience we're updating the metadata.json file structure. The new structure looks like below
{
"itemDisplayName": "",
"description": "",
"summary": "",
"githubUsername": "",
"dateUpdated": "<e.g. 2015-12-20>"
}
The metadata.json file will be validated using these rules
itemDisplayName
- Cannot be more than 60 characters
description
- Cannot be more than 1000 characters
- Cannot contain HTML
- This is used for the template description on the Azure.com index template details page
summary
- Cannot be more than 200 characters
- This is shown for template description on the main Azure.com template index page
githubUsername
- Username must be the same as the username of the author submitting the Pull Request
- This is used to display template author and Github profile pic in the Azure.com index
dateUpdated
- Must be in yyyy-mm-dd format.
- The date must not be in the future to the date of the pull request
- It is a good practice to pass your template through a JSON linter to remove extraneous commas, paranthesis, brackets that may break the "Deploy to Azure" experience
A starter template is provided here for you to follow
