echo arm-file: Path to ARM template WITHOUT .json extension. An parameter file with same name plus '.parameters' MUST exist in same folder
echo resource-grop-name: Name of the resource group to use or create
echo -c: If appears means that resource group must be created. If -c is specified, must use enter location

echo Examples:
echo"1 create-resources path_and_filename testgroup (Deploys path_and_filename.json with parameters specified in path_and_filename.parameters.json file)."

# Deploying resources using create-resources script
The `create-resources` script is a basic script to allow easy deployment of one ARM template in one resource group. You can deploy to an existing resource group or to create one.
The `create-resources.cmd ` script is a basic script to allow easy deployment of one ARM template in one resource group. You can deploy to an existing resource group or to create one.
**NOTE**: Alternatively, you can also use the `createresources.sh` bash script which can be used as a second option, convenient if you are using the Azure Cloud Bash Shell, a Mac or Linux machine, or simply, bash on Windows, instead of CMD/CommandPrompt in a local Windows
## Deploying to a existing resource group - Windows CMD
Just type `create-resources [pathfile-to-arm-template] resourcegroup` from command-prompt. Called this way the script will:
1. Search for `path-to-arm-template.json` and `path-to-arm-template.parameters.json` files
2. If they exist, will deploy them in the `resourcegroup` specified (that resource group in Azure has to exist).
## Deploying to a new resource group - Windows CMD
Just type `create-resources [pathfile-to-arm-template] resourcegroup -c location`. Called this way the script will:
1. Search for `path-to-arm-template.json` and `path-to-arm-template.parameters.json` files
2. If they exist, will create the `resourcegroup` specified in the `location` specified.
3. Finally will deploy `path-to-arm-template.json` and `path-to-arm-template.parameters.json` files in the `resourcegroup`
## Deploying to a existing resource group
## Deploying to a existing resource group - Bash shell
Just type `create-resources path-to-arm-template resourcegroup`. Called this way the script will:
Just type `createresources.sh[pathfile-to-arm-template] resourcegroup` from command-prompt. Called this way the script will:
1. Search for `path-to-arm-template.json` and `path-to-arm-template.parameters.json` files
2. If they exist, will deploy them in the `resourcegroup` specified (that has to exist).
2. If they exist, will deploy them in the `resourcegroup` specified (that resource group in Azure has to exist).
## Deploying to a new resource group
## Deploying to a new resource group - Bash shell
Just type `create-resources path-to-arm-template resourcegroup -c location`. Called this way the script will:
Just type `createresources.sh[pathfile-to-arm-template] resourcegroup -c location`. Called this way the script will:
1. Search for `path-to-arm-template.json` and `path-to-arm-template.parameters.json` files
2. If they exist, will create the `resourcegroup` specified in the `location` specified.
