So, I am trying to deploy an Azure web app using Azure Pipelines from a git repo. The project is working fine locally, but when uploaded it says a package is-docker is missing (actually I get an ENOENT file or dir not found error). I am not using docker, and I guess Azure is trying to just check if I am, although I have not installed this package.
I am using node 10.x and npm 6.14 both locally and on azure. I am deploying an azure web app on Linux (ubuntu 20).
I would really appreciate some help.
edit
I added package is-docker to package.json but the problem still exists.

Thanks for all the help people. I just moved to Azure for Containers. I think I found the problem and had to do with the fact that I used many packages which had to do with complex libraries relevant to the host os (i am using windows and the other 3 members of my team are using Mac, and 2 different flavours of Linux) and the fact that Azure is not using the same image type everytime.
Anyways, the azure web app for containers seems a lot more stable and dockerhub is really easy and nice to have, so I do not have any problem for the time being. I was moving to containers anyways, so... how about you?

When i try to build angular app using azure devops and deploy to azure static web app i'm receiving below error
The app build failed to produce artifact folder: 'dist/harmony-front'. Please
ensure this property is configured correctly in your deployment
configuration file.
I tried by changing output_location to / , dist, /dist , dist/harmony-front,
nothing seems to work
here's the yaml code for the deployment section
- task: AzureStaticWebApp#0
inputs:
app_location: "/"
api_location: "api"
output_location: "./dist/harmony-front"
app_build_command: 'npm run build:prod'
skip_api_build: true
verbose: true
env:
continueOnError: true
CUSTOM_BUILD_COMMAND: "npm install --force"

What was the mistake i made
Thanks
I have tried to repro the same and got positive results after following the below steps.
Step 1: Create a simple angular project and build the project on a local machine and inspect the dist folder.
Step 2: Push the code to Azure Repos.
Step 3: Create azure pipeline as shown below.
trigger: none
pool:
vmImage: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- task: NodeTool#0
inputs:
versionSpec: '18.x'
displayName: 'Install Node.js'
- script: |
npm install -g #angular/cli
displayName: 'install angular cli'
- task: Npm#1
inputs:
command: 'install'
displayName: 'npm install'
- task: Npm#1
inputs:
command: 'custom'
customCommand: 'run build'
displayName: 'npm build'
- task: Bash#3
inputs:
targetType: 'inline'
script: |
pwd
ls -l
ls -l dist/
- task: AzureStaticWebApp#0
displayName: 'Deploy Azure static webapp'
inputs:
app_location: '/'
output_location: 'dist/my-app'
env:
azure_static_web_apps_api_token: $(static-webapp-token)
Step 4: Verify the result.
If you are still facing that issue, verify the AzureStaticWebApp#0
output location path in angular.json file as below. Both paths must be exact.
Actually I found the issue and will post for future reference. if someone had the same issue.
issue start when you override build command using CUSTOM_BUILD_COMMAND will overwrite the RUN_BUILD_COMMAND so based on the comment of the issue posted on Github instead of npm install --force command combined with build like npm install --force && npm run build works like charm
I am struggling to have the deployment of an Express app succeed.
I have an Nx Monorepo set up with Azure Repos. In this monorepo, I have 4 projects and I am trying to deploy one that uses Express. I can't seem to find anywhere how to do this and since this is my first deployment from a monorepo, I'm not sure how all the documentation from various sources fits together.
I have included my YAML file below. It succeeds in the Build Stage, but fails during Deploy.
Whenever I run the nx build command, it puts the output into the /dist/apps folder in the root directory.
Some of the kudu logs show a 409 conflict error but I'm not sure what could be causing this.

I currently have a pipeline in Azure Dev Ops configured to build, copy, archive, and then deploy a Vue.js app to an Azure App Service running on Linux. When I SSH into the server I do see the outputs of the build appearing successfully in the wwwroot folder but when I pull up the URL of the App Service I'm just shown the default landing page. Below are screenshots of my wwwroot folder, the page I'm seeing when I pull up the URL and a copy of the yml file for the pipeline. Is there something else missing from the yml file that I need to add to tell the app service to start the vue.js app by chance, I'm fairly new to this stuff.

I have tried to replace the startupCommand with npm run build and use the InlineScript parameter (see the Azure documentation and also this site) for serve -s build, but got a permission denied error.
Does anyone know how to successfully deploy a react app to azure with azure pipelines?
As an alternative you can use the following command directly in the main yml file.
StartupCommand: 'pm2 serve /home/site/wwwroot --no-daemon --spa'
I had the same problem. My Azure Pipeline was fine and the build and deploy worked fine and published the build folder to the /home/site/wwwroot folder.
When you create your App Service just install the PHP stack and you don't have to worry about serving anything because index.html is picked up by which ever webserver is running on there already for the PHP stack.
Slightly hacky but it works
I got it working. So what I had to do was serving the static files from the build folder. To let the react-router work on azure you have to create a file called ecosystem.config.js. At this file to your public folder. If pm2 environment detects this file it executes it. See here for reference.
This file executes the serve command. It looks as follows:
module.exports = {
apps: [
{
script: "npx serve -s"
}
]
};
The azure-pipelines.yml looks as follows
trigger:
- none
variables:
# Azure Resource Manager connection created during pipeline creation
azureSubscription: ###
# Web app name
webAppNameStaging: 'rafeFrontendWebApp-staging'

azureSubscription: $(azureSubscription)
appType: 'webAppLinux'

RuntimeStack: 'NODE|lts'
Since the Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory is cleared on a deploy you have to use the PublishPipelineArtifact task to still be able to access the files in a deployment
To try to make it short, I have a React application that's build on Azure DevOps Build Pipeline like so
trigger:
- Release
queue:
name: Hosted
demands: npm
steps:
- task: NodeTool#0
inputs:
versionSpec: '10.x'
displayName: 'Install Node.js'
- script: |
npm ci
npm run build
displayName: 'Do npm ci and build'
This does what the build would do locally too. Locally the results of build go to build directory (unzipped).
Now when I try to create release pipeline there isn't an artifact to be found using Azure Deploy Web Service task.
If I try to add PublishPipelineArtifact#0 to the build pipeline to create a publication, the YAML editor just tells string does not match pattern... and doesn't let save the definition.
I suppose I should zip the contents of the generated build directory, but what would be the right way? Also, Is using the Azure App Service Deploy task the right way to deploy Azure WebApp? It works for ASP.NET Core apps so it finds the code drop artefact (zipped) and deploys it.
<edit: Adding
- task: PublishPipelineArtifact#0
inputs:
artifactName: 'drop'
targetPath: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/build'
Can actually be saved and the build run. Though it errors with

< edit 2: It appears removing the /build does the trick. Feels a tad odd since this is what's produced locally. It doesn't produce a zip file which is expected by the release job, namely Azure App Service Deploy.
Have to examine this problem later today (two o'clock at night here).
There was another problem: The script ran only npm ci and didn't run the building part. Separating it to two different steps made the difference. It appears PublishPipelineArtifact#0 in this case isn't an ideal option if I'd like to have the results as zipped to the staging area.
A currently working solution seem to be

Maybe this can be simplified, but works for now and is flexible, it feels.
