#### Azure Storage API compatible server (emulator)

Azurite is an open source Azure Storage API compatible server (emulator).
Based on Node.js, Azurite provides a cross platform experience for anyone
wanting to try Azure Storage easily in a local environment. It emulates the
Azure Blob, Queue and Table (preview) services.

This snap bundles its own Node.js runtime and exposes the following commands:

* azurite - run the Blob, Queue and Table services together
* azurite.blob - run only the Blob service (local Azure Blob storage)
* azurite.queue - run only the Queue service
* azurite.table - run only the Table service

By default, data is persisted under the snap's per-user common directory
($SNAP\_USER\_COMMON, e.g. ~/snap/azurite/common). Pass "-l <path>" together
with the "home" interface to store data elsewhere in your home directory.

Default blob endpoint: <http://127.0.0.1:10000/devstoreaccount1>

## Enable snaps on Kubuntu and install Azurite

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://kubuntu.org/) or later, including [Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu) and [Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CosmicCuttlefish/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

Versions of Kubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-14-04-lts) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-15-10) don’t include *snap* by default, but *snap* can be installed from the command line as follows:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```
