Description

When running terraform deployments against a function app, it removes the zip package forcing me to redeploy code after terraform has finished.

I've seen examples of publishing the package as a part of the terraform deployment but I'd rather keep those tasks separated. I only want terraform to update the infrastructure of the app service, not remove any code.

Potential Terraform Configuration

Using WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE = 1

I've asked the question in community channel but I don't think we have the ability to do this.

I need a way to tell Terraform ignore this folder: /home/data/SitePackages which is where the zip packages get published to.

@brennfoster Were you able to resolve this? We are having the same issue.

@dloukola I decided to run on Linux which uploads the zip package to blob storage. Then I set an ignore on the appsetting WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE in terraform so that it doesn't overwrite.
