Adding a kubernetes or openshift component

You can add either a kubernetes or openshift component to a devfile.

Prerequisites

• Adding schema version

• Adding a name

• Adding components

Procedure

1. Define a component using the kubernetes or openshift property.

2. Provide the content through the uri or inlined property.

   Adding an openshift component using the uri property

   devfile.yaml

   components:
     - name: mysql
       openshift:
         uri: petclinic.yaml
   

   Adding a kubernetes component using the inlined property

   devfile.yaml

   components:
   - name: myk8deploy
     kubernetes:
       inlined:
         apiVersion: batch/v1
         kind: Job
         metadata:
           name: pi
         spec:
           template:
             spec:
               containers:
               - name: job
                 image: myimage
                 command: ["some",  "command"]
               restartPolicy: Never
   

3. Specify the endpoint through the endpoint property with kubernetes or openshift components.

4. By default kubernetes or openshift components are not going to be deployed. Specify deployByDefault: true if you want to apply the component at start up.

5. Associate kubernetes or openshift components with apply commands wth deploy command group kind. If the kubernetes or openshift component uses an image built by an image component defined in the devfile, you can create a composite deploy command to build the image and deploy the kubernetes or openshift component. For more information on deploy commands, see adding a command group.
