Common Azure Resource Modules Library
Description
This repository includes a library of mature and curated Bicep modules as well as a Continuous Integration (CI) environment leveraged for modules' validation and versioned publishing.
The CI environment supports both ARM and Bicep and can be leveraged using GitHub actions as well as Azure DevOps pipelines.
Upcoming breaking changes
In between now and the release of version 0.11.0, the main branch is subject to several upcoming breaking changes that will affect all modules (e.g., the renaming of folders and files).
The rationale is an ongoing effort to prepare our modules for a release in the official Public Bicep Registry, forcing us to align the structural requirements.
For more details, please refer to the issue #3131.

Note: To ensure the modules and environment work as expected, please ensure you are using the latest version of the used tools such as PowerShell and Bicep. Especially in case of the later, note, that you need to manually update the Bicep CLI. For further information, see our troubleshooting guide.

Disclaimer
Please note that CARML is constantly evolving and introducing new features. The main branch of this repository changes frequently and thus, it always contains the latest available version of the code. Some of the updates may introduce breaking changes as well.
- Default path: To avoid disruptions, use distinct versions available through releases.
- Early adopter path: If the risk of breaking changes is understood and accepted, you can use the code in the
mainbranch directly. However, the CARML team recommends against automatically pulling code frommain. It is always recommended to review changes before you pull them into your own repository.
