Currently I'm writing a Django (python) application running on Microsoft Azure cloud. Azure offers several different ways to deploy your app:

  1. Zip upload
  2. Git repository
  3. Cloud shell using "az webapp up" command

In the documentation, it's mentioned that build processes are or can be configured to run automatically during the deployment (in this case, running pip install -r requirements.txt). However, no mention of this is made regarding the third option.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Since this is listed as an "experimental command" your best bet for documentation is the man page.

    command from the folder where the code is present. Supports running the command in preview mode
    using --dryrun parameter. Current supports includes Node, Python,.NET Core, ASP.NET, staticHtml.
    Node, Python apps are created as Linux apps. .Net Core, ASP.NET and static HTML apps are created
    as Windows apps. If command is run from an empty folder, an empty windows web app is created.

    the code to deployed exists.
        az webapp up -n MyUniqueAppName


    Create a web app in a sepcific region, by running the command from the folder where the code to
    deployed exists.
