Azure AppInsights with Nodejs adding operation id to response

I needed to add an additional response header to my requests to aid in tracking errors.

Here is my solution. A middleware that will add the AppInsights Operation ID to the response. The Operation ID is unique to each request so searching for it is simple.

import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import appInsights from '../../lib/appInsights';

export default (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => {          
    const { operation } = appInsights.getCorrelationContext();    
    
    res.setHeader('X-Operation-ID', operation.id);
    
    next();
};

Vue.js – Azure Pipelines

I had a requirement to automate the CI/CD pipeline of an existing Vue.js project.

What was asked…

  1. On any merge into the branch “releases/dev
  2. Run all unit tests
  3. Build for the development/staging environment
  4. Copy the files to Azure Blob storage so they can be used as a SPA

The project repo was already in Azure Dev Ops

trigger:
  - releases/dev

pool:
  vmImage: "ubuntu-latest"

steps:
  - task: NodeTool@0
    inputs:
      versionSpec: "12.x"
    displayName: "Install Node.js"

- script: |
    npm install
    npm run test:unit
  displayName: "npm install"

- script: |
    npm run test:unit
  displayName: "npm run test:unit"

- script: |
    npm run build:dev
  displayName: "npm run build:dev"

- task: AzureCLI@2
  displayName: "Copy files to blob storage"
  inputs:
    azureSubscription: 'Faux-Development-ltd'
    scriptType: 'bash'
    scriptLocation: 'inlineScript'
    inlineScript: 'az storage blob upload-batch -d \$web --account-   name "blobStoreName" -s "dist" --connection-string "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=xxxxxx;AccountKey=123456789123456789/qwerty/qwertybangbang==;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net"'

The only sticking points where.

The blob store container is called $web which look like a variable in the shell script so I had to use \$web
