What about the possibility to scaffold and deploy your architecture using the voice? During this talk we'll see how this can be possible. We'll take Alexa and Azure as an example but ideally you can do the same with other technologies. Maybe soon this task will be much more fun!

1. Alexa, please deploy my
Azure architecture

3. Alexa + Azure = voiceDevOps

4. Whyvoice DevOps ?
sperimentare un modo diverso di fare qualcosa di
ripetitivo, spesse volte quasi annoiante
ma si può parlando? ...ci avete mai pensato?
come sarebbe se fosse davvero "frictionless" ?

11. Cosa si può fare?Per ora 3 cose ...
provisioning di un servizio su Azure
(app, db, storage...)
deploy di un progetto ospitato
in Azure DevOps
build di un progetto
...

12. Azure Management Libraries(IaaC)
public class AzureFunctionDeployment : BaseDeployment
{
protected override Task ExecuteCreateAsync()
{
var definition = Azure
.WithSubscription(Options.SubscriptionId)
.AppServices.FunctionApps
.Define(AppName)
.WithRegion(Options.Region);
var create = definition.WithExistingResourceGroup(
Options.ResourceGroupName)
return create.CreateAsync();
}
}
https://github.com/Azure/azure-libraries-for-net

13. Resource Deployer
FunctionName("AldoResourceDeployer")]
public async Task Run([QueueTrigger("azure-resource-deploy" ...
[Queue("project-deploy" ...)
{
var azure = await azureService.Authenticate(conf.ClientId,
conf.ClientSecret, conf.TenantId);
var deploy = await deploymentService.Deploy(azure,
deployOptions, ard.AzureResource);
if(deploy.IsSuccess)
{
var message = ...
await notificationService.SendUserNotification(user,message);
}
...
}

14. Project Deployer &Builder
FunctionName("AldoProjectDeployer")]
public async Task Run([QueueTrigger("project-deploy" ...)]
ProjectToDeploy pd)
{
var release = await azureDevOpsService.TriggerRelease(pd);
}
FunctionName("AldoProjectBuilder")]
public async Task Run([QueueTrigger("project-build" ...)]
ProjectToBuild pb)
{
var build = await azureDevOpsService.TriggerBuild(pb);
}

15. Azure DevOps Pipelines

16. Proactive Events
https://developer.amazon.com/it/docs/smapi/proactive-events-api.html
sostituiscono le notifiche
esistono diversi schemi tra cui scegliere ma per ora non
è possibile definire un proprio evento custom ...
possono essere unicast o broadcast
tramite l'app Alexa occorre dare consenso
allaricezione

17. Notifier
FunctionName("AldoNotifier")]
public async Task Run([HttpTrigger(..."post"...)] HttpRequest req)
{
...
dynamic data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(requestBody);
string eventType = data.eventType;
switch(eventType)
{
case "ms.vss-release.deployment-completed-event":
user = await azureDevOpsService.GetReleaseRequestor(...);
message = ...
case "build.complete":
user = await azureDevOpsService.GetBuildRequestor(...);
message = ...
}
if(user.IsSuccess)
await notificationService.SendUserNotification(user,message);
...
}

18. Azure DevOps API
docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/?view=azure-devops-rest-5.0

19. Next
account linking per integrarsi pienamente con Azure
DevOps e personalizzare l'esperienza
Durable Function stateful o Akka actor che orchestra gli
worker per rendere il flusso più immediato e avere
anche altre possibilità
aggiungere ulteriori azioni e parametri (nome branch,
env...)
localizzazione della skill con frasi diverse per le stesse
azioni
suggerimenti...

20. Grazie
