This is a half-baked (ie. only provides what we needed) SDK for Azure in Go.
This SDK also supports authentication with a JSON file containing credentials for the service principal. In the Azure CLI, you can create a service principal and its authentication file with this command:
az ad sp create-for-rbac --sdk-auth > mycredentials.json
Save this file in a secure location on your system where your code can read it. Set an environment variable with the full path to the file:
export AZURE_AUTH_LOCATION=/secure/location/mycredentials.json
$env:AZURE_AUTH_LOCATION= "/secure/location/mycredentials.json"
The file looks like this, in case you want to create it yourself:
{
"clientId": "<your service principal client ID>",
"clientSecret": "your service principal client secret",
"subscriptionId": "<your Azure Subsription ID>",
"tenantId": "<your tenant ID>",
"activeDirectoryEndpointUrl": "https://login.microsoftonline.com",
"resourceManagerEndpointUrl": "https://management.azure.com/",
"activeDirectoryGraphResourceId": "https://graph.windows.net/",
"sqlManagementEndpointUrl": "https://management.core.windows.net:8443/",
"galleryEndpointUrl": "https://gallery.azure.com/",
"managementEndpointUrl": "https://management.core.windows.net/"
