Azure IoT Edge for Visual Studio Code

Gitter

Announcement

The Azure IoT Visual Studio Code extension is in a maintenance mode. Please see this announcement for more details. We recommend using the command line steps to develop edge modules over VSCode extensions.

Overview

Azure IoT Edge extension makes it easy to code, build, deploy, and debug your IoT Edge solutions in Visual Studio Code, by providing a rich set of functionalities:

  • Create new IoT Edge solution
  • Add new IoT Edge module to Edge solution
  • Build and publish IoT Edge modules
  • Debug IoT Edge modules locally and remotely
  • IntelliSense and code snippets for the deployment manifest
  • Manage IoT Edge devices and modules in IoT Hub (with Azure IoT Toolkit)
  • Deploy IoT solutions to IoT Edge devices

FAQ

Q: All too often, I forget to save a config file, and when I build the docker image. Can we auto-save files before build?

A: By default, VS Code requires an explicit action to save your changes to disk, Ctrl+S. However, it's easy to turn on Auto Save

Q: How to work with Python virtual environment?

A: The Python extension manages your virtual environments in the workspace folder. Please refer to Environments and Automatic Activation of Environments in the Terminal for details.

Q: Help me understand IoT Edge deployment manifest.

A: Learn how to use deployment manifests to deploy modules and establish routes

Q: If I run this extension on Linux (e.g. Ubuntu), when executing docker commands (e.g. the Build IoT Edge Module Image command), the terminal shows permission denied errors. How can I fix this, and avoid having to prefix every command manually with sudo?

A: This extension assumes the current user has sufficient privileges to run docker commands. On Linux you can add the current user to the docker group by executing the following commands:

  • To create the group: sudo groupadd docker
  • To add the current user to it: sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

After executing these commands exit your Terminal session and restart Docker (sudo systemctl restart docker). Or you can reboot the machine completely. Check the Post-installation steps for Linux in the Docker documentation for more information on how to manage Docker as a non-root user.

Commands

Press F1 or Ctrl + Shift + P to open command palette, type Azure IoT Edge: to see all the commands:

  • Azure IoT Edge: New IoT Edge Solution: Create an IoT Edge solution.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Add IoT Edge Module: Add a new IoT Edge module to the IoT Edge solution.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build IoT Edge Module Image: Containerize IoT Edge module from source code.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build and Push IoT Edge Module Image: Containerize and push IoT Edge module image to a Docker registry.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build IoT Edge Solution: Build all the IoT Edge module image in the solution and expand deployment manifest.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build and Push IoT Edge Solution: Build and push all the IoT Edge module image in the solution and expand deployment manifest.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Setup IoT Edge Simulator: Setup IoT Edge Simulator with an edge device connection string.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build and Run IoT Edge Solution in Simulator: Build all the IoT Edge module image in the solution and expand deployment manifest. Then run the solution in IoT Edge Simulator.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Run IoT Edge Solution in Simulator: Run the solution of the given deployment manifest in IoT Edge Simulator.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Start IoT Edge Hub Simulator for Single Module: Start the IoT Edge Simulator for testing single module. It will ask for the input names of the module.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Stop IoT Edge Simulator: Stop IoT Edge Simulator.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Set Module Credentials to User Settings: Set the module credential into "azure-iot-edge.EdgeHubConnectionString" and "azure-iot-edge.EdgeModuleCACertificateFile" in user settings. The credentials could be used to connect IoT Edge Simulator.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Create deployment for Edge device: Create and submit the deployment to your IoT Edge device with specified deployment manifest.

You can also trigger following frequently-used commands in context menu.

  • Azure IoT Edge: Add IoT Edge Module: The context menu of deployment.template.json file or modules folder in VS Code file explorer. A new module will be added to the modules folder.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build IoT Edge Solution: The context menu of deployment.template.json file in VS Code file explorer.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build and Push IoT Edge Solution: The context menu of deployment.template.json file in VS Code file explorer.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build and Run IoT Edge Solution in Simulator: The context menu of deployment.template.json file in VS Code file explorer.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Generate IoT Edge Deployment Manifest: The context menu of deployment.template.json file in VS Code file explorer. The deployment manifest (deployment.json) will be expanded from deployment.template.json.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build IoT Edge Module Image: The context menu of the module.json file in VS Code file explorer. With the input platform from user, it will build the image with the target Dockerfile.
  • Azure IoT Edge: Build and Push IoT Edge Module Image: The context menu of the module.json file in VS Code file explorer. With the input platform from user, it will build and push image with the target Dockerfile.

Resources

Supported Operating Systems

Currently this extension supports the following operating systems:

  • Windows 7 and later (32-bit and 64-bit)
  • macOS 10.10 and later
  • Ubuntu 16.04

The extension might work on other Linux distros as some users have reported, but be aware that Microsoft provides no guarantee or support for such installations. You can find Azure IoT Edge support here.

TypeEdge (Experimental)

The Azure IoT TypeEdge introduces a strongly-typed flavor of the inherently loosely coupled vanilla Azure IoT Edge. We would like to invite you to try TypeEdge out and give us any feedback or recommendations you might have here. TypeEdge is still an experimental project that we dont recommend to use it in production IoT Edge project.

To get started, please visit the project repo and give us feedback via Github Issues.
