GitHub Actions + Azure Web App
Azure Web App CI/CD Pipeline
This project demonstrates automated deployment of a Node.js application to Azure Web App using GitHub Actions. The workflow ensures repeatable, reliable, and production-friendly deployments with clear separation of build and deploy stages.
Workflow Overview
The pipeline has two major jobs: a Build job that prepares and packages the app artifact, and a Deploy job that retrieves the artifact, logs into Azure, and publishes the app using azure/webapps-deploy.
Pipeline Flow
Artifact Packaging
Application is zipped and uploaded as build artifact using actions/upload-artifact.
Deploy Job
Pipeline downloads artifact, extracts it, authenticates to Azure, and deploys.
Key Actions and Tools
actions/checkout + setup-node
Prepares source code and runtime environment for consistent builds.
actions/upload-artifact
Stores build outputs to pass safely between workflow jobs.
azure/login + webapps-deploy
Authenticates with Azure and deploys the Node.js app to Azure Web App.
