Deploy Tomcat

Prerequisites

This example assumes you have previously completed the following examples:

1. Create an Azure Resource Group
2. Create an Azure Container Registry
3. Push a Tomcat Docker image to Azure Container Registry
4. Create an Azure Container Apps environment

Deploy Tomcat

To deploy the Tomcat container image to Azure Container Apps use the command lines below.

  export ACA_TOMCAT=tomcat

  az containerapp create \
    --name $ACA_TOMCAT \
    --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP \
    --environment $ACA_ENVIRONMENT_NAME \
    --image $ACR_NAME.azurecr.io/$ACR_TOMCAT_IMAGE \
    --target-port 8080 \
    --ingress 'external' \
    --registry-server $ACR_NAME.azurecr.io \
    --min-replicas 1

  az containerapp show \
    --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP \
    --name $ACA_TOMCAT \
    --query properties.configuration.ingress.fqdn

Then open your browser to the URL echoed above and you should see:

And this is served by a custom Tomcat using a Docker image coming from
our own Azure Container Registry.

Cleanup

Do NOT forget to remove the resources once you are done running the example.
