# Azure CLI

## Extensions

There are two sets of extensions: the one in `extensions-generated.nix` is generated with the script
`query-extension-index.sh`. These are extensions that don't have external requirements and thus can
be easily maintained and updated. The set should only be manipulated through an update based on the
script output.

The other set of extensions is in `extensions-manual.nix`. These are extensions with requirements,
which need to be packaged and maintained manually.

### Adding an extension to `extensions-manual.nix`

To manually add a missing extension, first query its metadata from the extension index.
Use the following command, use the current version of azure-cli in nixpkgs as `cli-version`
and the name of the extension you want to package as `extension`:

```sh
./query-extension-index.sh --cli-version=2.61.0 --extension=azure-devops --download
```

The output should look something like this:

```json
{
  "pname": "azure-devops",
  "description": "Tools for managing Azure DevOps.",
  "version": "1.0.1",
  "url": "https://github.com/Azure/azure-devops-cli-extension/releases/download/20240514.1/azure_devops-1.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl",
  "sha256": "f300d0288f017148514ebe6f5912aef10c7a6f29bdc0c916b922edf1d75bc7db",
  "license": "MIT",
  "requires": [
    "distro (==1.3.0)",
    "distro==1.3.0"
  ]
}
```

Based on this, you can add an attribute to `extensions-manual.nix`:

```nix
  azure-devops = mkAzExtension rec {
    pname = "azure-devops";
    version = "1.0.0";
    url = "https://github.com/Azure/azure-devops-cli-extension/releases/download/20240206.1/azure_devops-${version}-py2.py3-none-any.whl";
    sha256 = "658a2854d8c80f874f9382d421fa45abf6a38d00334737dda006f8dec64cf70a";
    description = "Tools for managing Azure DevOps";
    propagatedBuildInputs = with python3Packages; [
      distro
    ];
    meta.maintainers = with lib.maintainers; [ katexochen ];
  };
```

* The attribute name should be the same as `pname`.
* Replace the version in `url` with `${version}`.
* The json output `requires` must be transformed into `propagetedBuildInputs`.
* If `license` is `"MIT"`, it can be left out in the nix expression, as the builder defaults to that license.
* Add yourself as maintainer in `meta.maintainers`.

### Testing extensions

You can build azure-cli with an extension on the command line by running the following command at the root of this repository:

```sh
nix build --impure --expr 'with (import ./. {}); azure-cli.withExtensions [ azure-cli.extensions.azure-devops ]'
```

Check if the desired functionality was added.

You can check if the extensions was recognized by running:

```sh
./result/bin/az extension list
```

The output should show the extension like this:

```sh
[
  {
    "experimental": false,
    "extensionType": "whl",
    "name": "azure-devops",
    "path": "/nix/store/azbgnpg5nh5rb8wfvp0r9bmcx83mqrj5-azure-cli-extensions/azure-devops",
    "preview": false,
    "version": "1.0.0"
  }
]
```

### Removing an extension

If extensions are removed upstream, an alias is added to the end of `extensions-manual.nix`
(see `# Removed extensions`). This alias should throw an error and be of similar structure as
this example:

```nix
blockchain = throw "The 'blockchain' extension for azure-cli was deprecated upstream"; # Added 2024-04-26
```
