⚠️⚠️ Repository archival notice ⚠️⚠️

We would like to inform you that this repository has been archived and the Bicep landing zone vending module for Azure now has a new home in the Bicep public registry and is now a pattern module in the Azure Verified Modules initiative.

What does this mean?

Why was this done?

We are converting this module to be an Azure Verified pattern module to better align with the Azure Verified Modules initiative. This will help us align with the Well-architected framework guidance, have improved module support and provide you with a consistent experience consuming AVM Bicep modules.

📒 If you are not familiar with Azure Verified Modules, you can watch the following Youtube videos for a quick overview:

If I'm already using the Bicep Subscription vending module from the Bicep public registry, what do I need to change?

We tried as much as possible to have a smooth transition path with minimal breaking changes. To switch to the new module:

NOTE: After the migration to Azure Verified Modules, version 1.5.2 of the Subscription Vending module is now 0.1.0 in the Bicep public registry.

Overview

ℹ️ This module requires the usage of Bicep version v0.11.1 or later. For details on installing/upgrading Bicep see: Install Bicep tools ℹ️

ℹ️ This module is also available on the Bicep Module Registry here. Examples also included in our wiki examples. ℹ️

The landing zone Bicep modules are designed to accelerate deployment of the individual landing zones (aka Subscriptions) within an Microsoft Entra Tenant.

See the different types of landing zones in the Azure Landing Zones documentation here: What is an Azure landing zone? - Platform vs. application landing zones

The modules are designed to be instantiated many times, once for each desired landing zone.

This is currently split logically into the following capabilities:

When creating Virtual Network peerings, be aware of the limit of peerings per Virtual Network.

We would like feedback on what's missing in the module. Please raise an issue if you have any suggestions.

Parameters for module main.bicep

Parameters documented here: main.bicep.parameters.md.

Details on each of the parameters, including examples and an example parameter file (this is not a valid parameter file as all parameters contain values, so you must remove the un-required parameters or set them back to their default value, as documented), for the main.bicep module can be found here: main.bicep.parameters.md.

These docs are automatically generated using PSDocs.Azure from the Bicep module file itself and this GitHub Action as part of PRs that amend this Bicep module.

Example

For more examples please see the wiki and if you cannot find an example you are looking for please raise an issue on the repo 👍

Below is an example showing how to use this module.

Most commonly this module will be deployed using PowerShell, with the Azure Az Module, with a supporting .json parameters file, one per landing zone to create/vend. Or the same approach but using the Azure CLI.

IMPORTANT: The below example requires you have cloned/downloaded the entire repo and have it available at run-time on the machine running the below commands. It is also expected you are in the root of the cloned/extracted repository; otherwise paths will need to be changed in the below example.

PowerShell Example

$inputObject = @{
  DeploymentName        = 'lz-vend-{0}' -f (-join (Get-Date -Format 'yyyyMMddTHHMMssffffZ')[0..63])
  ManagementGroupId     = 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' # Set this to the Management Group ID you wish to target the deployment against. NOTE: This isn't the Management Group that the Subscription will be moved to, that is specified via the parameters.
  Location              = 'uksouth' # Set this to the Azure Region you wish the deployment to be targeted against. NOTE: This isn't the Region that the Subscription's resources will be deployed to, that is specified via the parameters.
  TemplateParameterFile = './landingZones/lz1.parameters.json' # This would be changed to the specific file per landing zone.
  TemplateFile          = "./main.bicep" # Set this to the path where you have checked out this repo to.
}

Azure CLI Example

dateYMD=$(date +%Y%m%dT%H%M%S%NZ)
DEPLOYMENTNAME="lz-vend-${dateYMD}"
MANAGEMENTGROUPID="xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" # Set this to the Management Group ID you wish to target the deployment against. NOTE: This isn't the Management Group that the Subscription will be moved to, that is specified via the parameters.
LOCATION="uksouth" # Set this to the Azure Region you wish the deployment to be targeted against. NOTE: This isn't the Region that the Subscription's resources will be deployed to, that is specified via the parameters.
TEMPLATEPARAMETERFILE="@/landingZones/lz1.parameters.json" # This would be changed to the specific file per landing zone.
TEMPLATEFILE="/main.bicep" # Set this to the path where you have checked out this repo to.
