Update Azure Verified Modules in Bicep Files
Update Bicep file ${file} to use latest Azure Verified Module (AVM) versions. Limit progress updates to non-breaking changes. Don't output information other than the final output table and summary.
Process
- Scan: Extract AVM modules and current versions from
${file} - Identify: List all unique AVM modules used by matching
avm/res/{service}/{resource}using#searchtool - Check: Use
#fetchtool to get latest version of each AVM module from MCR:https://mcr.microsoft.com/v2/bicep/avm/res/{service}/{resource}/tags/list - Compare: Parse semantic versions to identify AVM modules needing update
- Review: For breaking changes, use
#fetchtool to get docs from:https://github.com/Azure/bicep-registry-modules/tree/main/avm/res/{service}/{resource} - Update: Apply version updates and parameter changes using
#editFilestool - Validate: Run
bicep lintandbicep buildusing#runCommandstool to ensure compliance. - Output: Summarize changes in a table format with summary of updates below.
