Manage Projects

Application Composition Projects are used to compose applications based on already existing, reusable components from a repository. An application is just a representation of deployment instructions and configurations for multiple components that will get deployed together, but there is no "implementation code" as there is in service projects.

Create new projects

You can create new application projects by clicking on the "Create" button on the Projects overview page and providing the following information:

  • In the "Create Project" dialog choose Application Composition Project
  • Specify a unique acronym for this project
  • Give the application a name
  • Select the Git provider that should be used to store the project's source code
  • Choose a repository group at this Git provider
  • Choose one or more tags (optional)
  • Choose an icon (optional)
  • Enter a description of your application (optional)
  • Click on create

Now that you have a new application composition project you need to add at least one deployment target before you can start adding components.

  • Click on "Add deployment target"
  • Select a namespace from the drop-down (you will see all configured deployment targets)

After having added deployment targets you can start adding components by clicking on the "+" button.

Delete application composition projects

To delete an application composition project you just have to click on the trash icon in the right upper corner inside an application project. You will be prompted with a confirmation screen where you have to type the acronym of the application to delete it.

Note:

Delete is only shown if the user has the needed privileges granted in the Git repository.
