Is there a way with Kudu (or some other means) to retrieve the MySql connection information when I push with Git?
I know I can access it through the portal, but I want to write a build script that generates some files based on the Azure Web Site I'm going to push to. I also am aware of the App Settings, but I don't want duplication there.
I'm deploying a custom built WordPress instance where I want to build the wp-config.php file dynamically and not have it checked in to my repository.
Yes, your connection string is available as an environment setting. To experiment with custom scripts use kuduexec (http://blog.amitapple.com/post/45675601255/azurewebsiteterminal)
