This repository contains official Java libraries for Azure services. For reference documentation go to Azure SDK for Java documentation, and tutorials, samples, quick starts and other documentation, go to Azure for Java Developers.
You can find a complete list of all the packages for these libraries here.
To get started with a specific library, see the README.md file located in the library's project folder. You can find service libraries in the /sdk directory.
For tutorials, samples, quick starts and other documentation, visit Azure for Java Developers.
Java 8 or later is required to use the July 2019 client preview libraries, otherwise Java 7 or later is required.
Each service might have a number of libraries available from each of the following categories:
New wave of packages that we are currently releasing in preview. These libraries follow the Azure SDK Design Guidelines for Java and share a number of core features such as HTTP retries, logging, transport protocols, authentication protocols, etc., so that once you learn how to use these features in one client library, you will know how to use them in other client libraries. You can learn about these shared features here.
These preview libraries can be easily identified by their folder, package, and namespaces names starting with azure-, e.g. azure-keyvault.
The libraries released in the July 2019 preview:
NOTE: If you need to ensure your code is ready for production, use one of the stable libraries.
Last stable versions of packages that have been provided for usage with Azure and are production-ready. These libraries provide similar functionalities to the preview libraries, as they allow you to use and consume existing resources and interact with them, for example: upload a blob. Stable library directories start with microsoft-azure-, e.g. microsoft-azure-keyvault.
Libraries which enable you to provision specific resources. They are responsible for directly mirroring and consuming Azure service's REST endpoints. Management library directories contain -mgmt-, e.g. azure-mgmt-keyvault.
