Enable SSH in Azure Webapp Container

 Enable SSH in Azure Webapp Container

    This article will help you enable ssh in Azure Webapp container.

- Create a file called "init.sh" at the same location where your Dockerfile is and add below content to it.

#!/bin/bash

set -e

echo "Starting SSH ..."

service ssh start

exec "$@"

- Create a file called "sshd_config", this file will have basic SSH configuration and port for SSH

and add below content.

Port 2222 ListenAddress 0.0.0.0 LoginGraceTime 180 X11Forwarding yes Ciphers aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,aes256-cbc,aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr MACs hmac-sha1,hmac-sha1-96 StrictModes yes SyslogFacility DAEMON PasswordAuthentication yes PermitEmptyPasswords no PermitRootLogin yes Subsystem sftp internal-sftp

- Install OpenSSH service, add below lines in Dockerfile.

# Install and Run SSH

ENV SSH_PASSWD "root:Docker!"

RUN apt-get update

RUN apt-get install -y dialog \

    && apt-get update \

    && apt-get install -y openssh-server \

    && echo "$SSH_PASSWD" | chpasswd

COPY ./sshd_config /etc/ssh/

COPY ./init.sh /usr/local/bin/

RUN chmod u+x /usr/local/bin/init.sh

ENTRYPOINT ["init.sh"]

- Build Docker image and deploy it on Azure webapp, to validate SSH navigate to Azure Portal.

Login into your Azure Portal–> Navigate to App services–> Enter into your deployed App service–>

Click on SSH(from the side pane)–> Click on Go

It will open another tab in browser and login to container.

Github Action workflow to deploy flask application on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)

 Deploy application on GKE using Github Actions

Follow the below steps to setup Github Actions workflow.

Prerequisite:

- Create service account in GCP and generate key file.

- Convert key file into base64 format and using the output to create secret variable in github repo.

Steps:

- In your github repo create .github/workflow directory

- Under workflow directory create a file called deploy.yml and paste below code into it.

name: Build-Deploy

on:

  push:

    branches: [ "anup_gke" ]

env:

  PROJECT_ID: <google-project-id> # ${{ secrets.GKE_PROJECT }}
