I want to create Linux VM from a disk in azure using python.

I have referred the azure-sdk-for-python, but i did not find the solution for this. Can anyone explain me the procedure please.

I have found this when I searched on google :

image_name = '{}-osImage'.format(vmname)

async_create = self.compute_client.images.create_or_update( resource_group, image_name,

    {
            'location': location,
            'storage_profile': {
                 'os_disk': {
                        'os_type': 'Linux',
                        'os_state': "Generalized",
                        'blob_uri': image,
                        'caching': "ReadWrite",
                 }
             }
    })

managed_image_ref = async_create.result()

image_reference = ImageReference(id = managed_image_ref.id)

storage_profile = StorageProfile(image_reference = image_reference)

I know this :
1. One can create VM from an image
2. For creating VM from disk, one has to do it using VHD.
But I do not know how to proceed in this (especially using python).
I am new to azure and do not know much about the VHDs. So please explain me the flow also.
