Credential Set

Credential sets can be defined in either json or yaml. You can use this json schema to validate a credential set file.

schemaType: CredentialSet
schemaVersion: 1.0.0
name: mycreds
namespace: staging
labels:
  team: redteam
  owner: xianglu
credentials:
  - name: token
    source:
      env: GITHUB_TOKEN
  - name: kubeconfig
    source:
      path: $HOME/.kube/config
  - name: connStr
    source:
      secret: my-connection-string
Field Required Description
schemaType false The type of document. This isn’t used by Porter but is included when Porter outputs the file, so that editors can determine the resource type.
schemaVersion true The version of the Credential Set schema used in this file.
name true The name of the credential set.
namespace false The namespace in which the credential set is defined. Defaults to the empty (global) namespace.
labels false A set of key-value pairs associated with the credential set.
credentials true A list of credentials and instructions for Porter to resolve the credential value.
credentials.name true The name of the credential as defined in the bundle.
credentials.source true Specifies how the credential should be resolved. Must have only one child property:
secret, value, env, path, or command

Parameter Set

  owner: xianglu
parameters:
  - name: color
    source:
      value: red
  - name: log-level
    source:
      env: LOG_LEVEL
  - name: connStr
    source:
      secret: my-connection-string
Field Required Description
schemaType false The type of document. This isn’t used by Porter but is included when Porter outputs the file, so that editors can determine the resource type.
schemaVersion true The version of the Parameter Set schema used in this file.
name true The name of the parameter set.
namespace false The namespace in which the parameter set is defined. Defaults to the empty (global) namespace.
labels false A set of key-value pairs associated with the parameter set.

parameters.name true The name of the parameter as defined in the bundle.
parameters.source true Specifies how the parameter should be resolved. Must have only one child property:
secret, value, env, path, or command

Installation

Installations can be defined in either json or yaml. You can use this json schema to validate an installation file.

Either the bundle digest, version, or tag must be specified. When more than one is specified, Porter selects the most specific field available, preferring digest the most, then version, and then falling back to tag last.

schemaType: Installation
schemaVersion: 1.0.0
name: myinstallation
namespace: staging
uninstalled: false
labels:
  team: marketing
  customer: bigbucks
bundle:
  repository: getporter/porter-hello
  # One of the following fields must be specified: digest, version, or tag
  digest: sha256:ace0eda3e3be35a979cec764a3321b4c7d0b9e4bb3094d20d3ff6782961a8d54
  version: 0.1.1
  tag: latest
parameterSets:
  - myparams
credentialSets:
  - mycreds
parameters:
  log-level: 11
Field Required Description
schemaType false The type of document. This isn’t used by Porter but is included when Porter outputs the file, so that editors can determine the resource type.
schemaVersion true The version of the Installation schema used in this file.
name true The name of the installation.

bundle true A reference to where the bundle is published
bundle.repository true The repository where the bundle is published.
bundle.digest false* The bundle repository digest.
bundle.version false* The bundle version.

parameterSets false A list of parameter set names.
credentialSets false A list of credential set names.
parameters false Additional parameter values to use with the installation. Overrides any parameters defined in the associated parameter sets.

* The bundle section requires a repository and one of the following fields: digest, version, or tag.
