Parameters Enterprise

When users have chosen a template, they will be presented with a form to complete.

This form will collect the specific resource configuration which they would like applied to their instance.

Resource variables, or parameters, are set by the template author in the template object manifest under spec.params.

Required params

Some params are required for all resources as they will be used to generate paths for the eventually rendered resources.

These are:

  • CLUSTER_NAME
  • RESOURCE_NAME

Parameters metadata

The following metadata fields can be added for each parameter under spec.params. These will get rendered nicely in the UI form allowing users to understand what each field is for.

  • name: The variable name within the resource templates.
  • description: Description of the parameter. This will be rendered in both the UI and CLI.
  • options: The list of possible values this parameter can be set to.
  • required - Whether the parameter must contain a non-empty value.
  • default - Default value of the parameter.

Example:

spec:
params:
- name: IP_ADDRESS
description: 'The IP address of this service'
options: [1.2.3.4, 5.6.7.8]
default: 1.2.3.4
