azure-iot-operations

Overview

This repo contains the deployment definition of Azure IoT Operations (AIO) and allows for AIO to be deployed to an Arc-enabled K8s cluster. This repository does not encourage pull requests, as the repo is meant for publicly sharing the releases of AIO and not shared development of AIO.

Please see the Azure IoT Operations documentation for more information. To learn how to deploy AIO using GitOps, see the Deploy to cluster documentation.

Forking the Repo

If you want to fork this repo and try deployment of AIO through GitOps, there are some additional steps you will need to take to set up the fork.

Set the AZURE_CREDENTIALS repository secret.
1. Create a Service Principal resource for the repository to use when performing GitHub actions.
```
# If you haven't upgraded your Azure CLI lately, run the following.
az upgrade

# Create a Service Principal to perform operations on the provided subscription.
az ad sp create-for-rbac --name $SP_NAME --role owner --scopes /subscriptions/$SUBSCRIPTION_ID --json-auth
```
2. Copy the JSON output from the Service Principal creation command and paste into a repository secret named AZURE_CREDENTIALS in your fork. Repository secrets can be found under Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions. To learn more, see creating secrets for a repository.
Enable GitHub actions on the fork.
1. On the forked repo, select Actions and select I understand my workflows, go ahead and enable them.
