azure-cli VS Oryx

If you don't use AWS, you can usually find CLI tools for other major cloud infrastructure services, such as Azure CLI or gcloud CLI.

Yep. They also do not notice, that Fedora 37 is using Python 3.11 already, and can't merge the fix for azure-cli for 2 months to fix the compatibility issue: https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/pull/24109

In the spirit of moto, it actually looks like quite a bit of the groundwork is available for someone to take a swing at an Azure version:

* the cli uses the python SDK: https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/blob/azure-cli-2.38.0/src...

* which uses autorest: https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-python/tree/azure-mgm...

* of what appears to be an OpenAPI-ish spec: https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs/tree/fda2db441...

Isn't Azure CLI written in Python?

Even though it seems like a pretty good little hack – this is not supported. The Portal would also bug out and refuse to display Environments correctly if the resource were created with “Other” workflow:

``` App Directory Location: 'src' was found. Looking for event info Starting to build app with Oryx Azure Static Web Apps utilizes Oryx to build both static applications and Azure Functions. You can find more details on Oryx here: https://github.com/microsoft/Oryx ---Oryx build logs---

One of the things I like about Azure Static Web Apps is that they can build themselves. You can just push your code to GitHub and they'll build it using a tool called Oryx. This is great for simple scenarios. Actually, it's good for medium to complex scenarios too. However, if you ever get to that "break glass" moment where you need to do something unusual with your build, you can.

Azure uses a system called Oryx. You don't need to know too much about how it works but it looks for specific files and chooses build specs based on them. If you have a requirements.txt, Oryx will know to use Python. 1

I need to add post-build actions to complete the deployment; the exceeding common Django task of running "manage.py". Following the general and python-specific docs I have added the an app setting of POST_BUILD_SCRIPT_PATH=postbuild.sh

What exactly StaticSitesClient does is shrouded with mystery, but upon successful build (using Oryx) it creates two zip files: app.zip and api.zip. Then it uploads both to Blob storage and submits a request for ContentDistribution endpoint to pick the assets up.

The GitHub Actions workflow, created in the project repository, does use the Azure Static Web Apps Deploy GitHub action from the marketplace. This reusable Action utilizes Oryx system to build both static applications and Azure Functions for API and then deploys it. You can find more information on Oryx repository at https://github.com/microsoft/Oryx and on how it does detect & build Hugo applications.
