Demonstrating publish / subscribe with Azure Service Bus topics and resource templates
From a fresh clone, you'll need to create a secrets.json file and drop it in the Subscriber project as well as in App_Data underneath the MessageGenerator project. It just needs one value for your service bus connection string:
{
"ServiceBusConnectionString": "Endpoint=sb://{your full connection string with key}"
}
You'll also need to run the Deploy-AzureResourceGroup.ps1 script to stand up the required resources. Something like this:
Login-AzureRmAccount
Push-Location {your script directory}
.\Deploy-AzureResourceGroup.ps1 -ResourceGroupLocation "East US" -ResourceGroupName "azure-service-bus-topic-example"
Pop-Location
From there, you'll get a sample website that just drops 10 sample messages on a topic. Run the Subscriber console app first, which will register a topic subscription. Then every time you drop the sample messages on the topic, the console app will read them and spit out the contents. Note that once the subscription is created, any messages created with the Subscriber offline will be read when it starts up.
