Version

This resource first became available in 1.3.0 of the inspec-azure resource pack.

Syntax

An azurerm_storage_account_blob_container block returns the requested Blob Container within an Azure Storage Account.

The resource_group, storage_account_name and blob_container_name must be given as parameters.

describe azurerm_storage_account_blob_container(resource_group: 'rg', storage_account_name: 'production',
                                                blob_container_name: 'logs') do
    ...
    ...
end

Examples

Ensure that the Blob Container exists

  describe azurerm_storage_account_blob_container(resource_group: 'rg', storage_account_name: 'default',
                                                  blob_container_name: 'logs') do
    it          { should exist }
    its('name') { should eq('logs') }
  end

Ensure that the Blob Container is private

describe azurerm_storage_account_blob_container(resource_group: 'rg', storage_account_name: 'production',
                                                blob_container_name: 'logs') do
  its('properties') { should have_attributes(publicAccess: 'None') }
end

Parameters

• resource_group
• storage_account_name
• blob_container_name

Attributes

• id
• name
• etag
• properties
• type

id

Fully qualified resource ID for the resource, e.g.

/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/{resourceProviderNamespace}/{resourceType}/{resourceName}

name

The name of the resource

etag

Resource Etag, e.g.

\"0x8D592D74CC20EBA\"

properties

Additional properties relating to the Blob Container, e.g.

  its('properties') { should have_attributes(publicAccess: 'None') }

type

The resource type, e.g.

Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/blobServices/containers

Other Attributes

There are additional attributes that may be accessed that we have not documented. Please take a look at the Azure documentation. Any attribute in the response may be accessed with the key names separated by dots (.).

The API may not always return keys that do not have any associated data. There may be cases where the deeply nested property may not have the desired attribute along your call chain. If you find yourself writing tests against properties that may be nil, fork this resource pack and add an accessor to the resource. Within that accessor you’ll be able to guard against nil keys. Pull requests are always welcome.

Matchers
