You can do it using the below code.

string fullFilePath = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("HOME") != null
    ? Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("HOME") + @"\site\wwwroot\test.txt" //It will give the file directory path post azure deployment
    : Path.GetDirectoryName(Path.GetDirectoryName(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())) + @"\test.txt";//It will give the file directory path in dev environment.
