Create Deployment Namespace Definitions

This section describes how to define namespaces with labels and annotations in a deployment package, and upload the YAML file in the web ui.

If your application requires a namespace resource to be created before any other resource then you can specify a list of namespaces with optional labels and annotations in the deployment package. During the deployment, any defined namespace including the labels and annotations will be created.

The example below shows a deployment-package.yaml file content with namespaces definition:

# deployment-package.yaml
---
specSchema: "DeploymentPackage"
schemaVersion: "0.1"
$schema: "https://schema.intel.com/catalog.orchestrator/0.1/schema"

name: "nginx-app"
description: "NGINX"
version: "0.1.0"

artifacts:
- name: "intel-icon"
   purpose: "icon"

applications:
- name: "nginx"
   version: "0.1.0"

namespaces:
- name: "nginx-namespace"
   labels:
   nginx-label-key: "nginx-label-value"
   annotations:
   nginx-ann-key: "nginx-ann-value"

deploymentProfiles:
- name: "testing-default"
   applicationProfiles:
   - application: "nginx"
      profile: "default"
- name: "testing-three-replicas"
   applicationProfiles:
   - application: "nginx"
      profile: "three-replicas"

Field	Description
Namespaces	A list of namespace definitions to be created before any resource is deployed
Name	<Required> The name of the namespace to be created
Labels	<Optional> A list of labels to be added to the created namespace
Annotations	<Optional> A list of annotations to be added to the created namespace

Note

You cannot create a deployment package with namespaces defined in the web ui. You need to create the YAML file and then import the deployment package YAML file into the web ui.
