Aspire.Hosting.Azure library

Provides core extensions to the .NET Aspire hosting model for Azure services.

Getting started

Prerequisites

Azure subscription - create one for free

Install the package

In your AppHost project, install the .NET Aspire Azure Hosting library with NuGet:

dotnet add package Aspire.Hosting.Azure

Configure Azure Provisioning for local development

Adding Azure resources to the .NET Aspire application model will automatically enable development-time provisioning for Azure resources so that you don't need to configure them manually. Provisioning requires a number of settings to be available via .NET configuration. Set these values in user secrets in order to allow resources to be configured automatically.

{
    "Azure": {
      "SubscriptionId": "<your subscription id>",
      "ResourceGroupPrefix": "<prefix for the resource group>",
      "Location": "<azure location>"
    }
}

NOTE: Developers must have Owner access to the target subscription so that role assignments can be configured for the provisioned resources.

Usage example

Then, in the Program.cs file of AppHost, add a resource based on a Bicep template:

var bicepResource = builder.AddBicepTemplate("bicep", "template.bicep")
                           .WithParameter("parametername", "parametervalue");
});
