Now to get all the files and modules for our site configured for our app run npm install This will create the folder structure for Express. With Express now on our machine, lets add the Express App to our new NodeJS site. From the Terminal tab in the lower pane type: npm install -g express-generator To that base sample site we’ll install Express. That will startup Visual Studio Code in the newly created folder with the starter sample. I created a new path on mine named … \NodeJS\nodejssite and dropped the sample in there so it looked like below.Īfter creating the folder structure and putting the sample in it, whilst in the sub-directory type: code.

Download that sample and extract the contents to a new folder on your workstation. In order to get the Web App deployed and accessible correctly in Azure I found it easiest to use the Sample Azure NodeJS Hello World example from here. I had a couple of attempts at doing this before I found a quick, neat and repeatable method of getting started. With VSCode on your development machine from the prerequisites above click on the Extensions Icon (bottom left) in the VSCode menu and type Azure Tools.

Visual Studio Code ExtensionsĪ really smart and handy extension for VS Code is Azure Tools for VS Code. This post details setting up Visual Studio Code to build a shell NodeJS site and deploy it to Azure using a local GIT Repository. You will also need an Azure Subscription to where you will publish your NodeJS site. Download and install them on your development machine.
What you will need on your development workstation before you start are the following components.
Here I share the end-to-end process to make it easy for you to started. There wasn’t much around on doing it, so I dived in and worked it out for myself.

In the back of my mind I knew I didn’t want to have to go for a full Visual Studio Project Solution for this, and with the recent updates to Visual Studio Code I figured it must be possible to do it using it. I’d messed with NodeJS a while back in this post where I configured a UI for Microsoft Identity Manager and Azure based functions.
The web application isn’t going to be high use and didn’t necessitate deployment of infrastructure (VM’s). This week I had the need to build a small web application with a reasonably simple front end that will later be integrated inside a Portal.
