Prerequisites

Tools

  1. An Azure Client (a.k.a. "az cli")
  2. A Git client
  3. A text editor

Azure Ressources

  1. An Azure subscription.
  2. A target resource group.
  3. A Key Vault with a properly signed SSL/TLS Certificate for the new moodle instance.
  4. A User Assigned Managed Identity (UAMI).

Azure Permissions

  1. Permission to manage (CRUD) resources in the target resource group.
  2. GET permission on the Key Vault Secrets granted to the User Assigned Managed Identity. This will allow the Application Gateway to retrieve the SSL/TLS certificate private key from the Key Vault using the UAMI .

Other Dependencies

  1. Optional - An SMTP server.
  2. Optional - A custom domain name for the new moodle instance.

Usage

  1. Clone this projet.
  2. Create a new file named azure/arm-templates/deploy-resources.parameters.json based on the azure/arm-templates/deploy-resources.parameters.example.json file.
  3. Edit the new deploy-resources.parameters.json file to your liking.
  4. Authenticate your Azure Client to your Azure subscription by running the az login command.
  5. Adapt and run the following commands from a bash shell (linux): 
    deployment_name="MoodleManualDeployment"
parameter_file="azure/arm-templates/deploy-resources.parameters.json"
resource_group_name="[Your resource Group name]"
template_file="azure/arm-template/deploy-resources.json"

az deployment group create \
  --name "${deployment_name}" \
  --parameter @"${parameter_file}" \
  --resource-group "${resource_group_name}" \
  --template-file "${template_file}" \
  --verbose

Enjoy!
