Overview

Remove all resources from an Azure Tenant and it's Subscriptions.

azure-nuke is stable, but it is likely that not all Azure resources are covered by it. Be encouraged to add missing resources and create a Pull Request or to create an Issue.

Destructive Tool

Be aware that this is a very destructive tool, hence you have to be very careful while using it. Otherwise, you might delete production data.

Introducing libnuke

Officially over the Christmas break of 2023, I decided to create libnuke which is a library that can be used to create similar tools for other cloud providers. This library is used by both this tool, aws-nuke, and azure-nuke and soon gcp-nuke.

I also needed a version of this tool for Azure and GCP, and initially I just copied and altered the code I needed for Azure, but I didn't want to have to maintain multiple copies of the same code, so I decided to create libnuke to abstract all the code that was common between the two tools and write proper unit tests for it.
