Installation
- Download and install the Azure Virtual Machines extension for Visual Studio Code
- Once complete, you'll see an Azure icon in the Activity Bar
If your activity bar is hidden, you won't be able to access the extension. Show the Activity Bar by clicking View > Appearance > Show Activity Bar
- Sign in to your Azure Account by clicking Sign in to Azure
If you don't already have an Azure Account, click "Create a Free Azure Account" or you can try Azure for free
Features
- View, create, delete, start, and stop Azure Virtual Machines
- Add SSH key to existing Azure Virtual Machines
Create a New Virtual Machine
- Once you are signed in, you can create your Azure Virutal machine by clicking the "+" button or by right-clicking your subscription.
- Select "Create Virtual Machine..."
- Type a name for your VM. Alphanumeric characters are all valid.
- Type a passphrase or leave it empty for no passphrase.
For security reasons, it's highly recommended that you use a passphrase for your SSH key. It is what will be used to connect to your VM via SSH.
The VM will be Standard D2s V3 (2 CPU Cores & 8 GB of ram) with the image Ubuntu 18.04-LTS. An SSH key will be created and your SSH Config file (~/.ssh/config
) will be updated so you can immediately connect via SSH ($ ssh vm-name
) or using the Remote-SSH extension.
Add SSH key to existing Virtual Machine
If you have an existing VM that you would like to add your own SSH key too, you can do that by right-clicking the VM tree item, clicking Add SSH Key..., and selecting an existing SSH key. You can generate an SSH key using SSH Keygen if you don't have any keys on your system.
Your SSH Config (~/.ssh/config
) file will be updated so you can connect via SSH using $ ssh vm-name
.
NOTE: This command is only available for Linux virtual machines.
Remote into Azure VM via SSH
- Use Visual Studio Code Remote - SSH to seamlessly connect to your Azure VM from VS Code.
NOTE: This command is only available for Linux virtual machines.
