Service plan specification

When defining a service using Helm, Operators or Kustomize we need to define the details of the service plan using a specification file.

Info

When using docker compose there is no need to set up this file as the information for the service plan can be defined on the docker compose spec. More information under Getting started / Setup using Compose

A complete list of settings that can be configured on the Service Spec file is included below.

Using Schema Validation

To simplify the definition of this specification file Omnistrate provide a JSON schema that can be used for validation. You can use the JSON schema in IDEs that use the YAML Language Server (eg: VSCode / NeoVim).

# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://api.omnistrate.cloud/2022-09-01-00/schema/service-spec-schema.json
Parameters VSCode

Service plan schema definitions

This Service Schema defines the structure for a service plan specification in Omnistrate. It consists of several key components such as API parameters, capabilities, compute resources, network configurations, etc. Each component is detailed below.

Root schema

The root of the schema includes the following properties:

Parameter Type Description
name string The name of the service plan.
deployment deployment schema The deployment type of the service plan. The possible values are hostedDeployment and byoaDeployment.
services array A list of service configurations for the plan. Required.

Deployment schema

The deployment type of the service plan. The possible values are hostedDeployment and byoaDeployment. Within the deployment type we need to add the information for the cloud provide account to use. If you are planning to use a single cloud provider, there is no need to add information for the others.

Parameter Type Description
AwsAccountId string AWS Account ID.
AWSBootstrapRoleAccountArn string ARN of the AWS bootstrap role.
GcpProjectId string GCP Project ID.
GcpProjectNumber string GCP Project number.
GcpServiceAccountEmail string Email of the GCP service account.

Service schema

Each service plan has a list of service components that need to be created as part of the service plan. For each service component we need to define a set of properties.

Property Type Description
name string The name of the service components.
internal boolean Defines if the service component can be created by customers or is an internal resource used by other service components
dependsOn array List of service components defined on this service that need to be created before this service component
apiParameters api parameters schema List of parameters for the service component.
compute compute schema The compute resources allocated for the service.
network network schema Network-related configuration for the service, including ports.
capabilities capabilities schema Defines service component characteristics like running on more than one AZ.
helmChartConfiguration helm schema Helm chart configuration, if the service component is defined using Helm.
operatorCRDConfiguration operator schema Operator CRD configuration for provisioning the service component, if the service is component is defined as an Operator
kustomizeConfiguration kustomize schema Kustomize configuration for provisioning the service component if the service component is defined using Kustomize.
terraformConfigurations terraform schema Terraform configuration for provisioning the service component on each cloud provider, if the service component requires a terraform stack.

API parameters schema

Defines the list of API parameters for the service component

Parameter Type Description
key string The key of the parameter.
description string Description of the parameter.
name string The display name of the parameter.
type string The type of the parameter (e.g., string).
modifiable boolean Indicates if the parameter is modifiable.
required boolean Indicates if the parameter is required.
export boolean If true, the parameter is exportable.
defaultValue string Default value of the parameter.
options array Available options for the parameter.
labeledOptions object A set of labeled options as key-value pairs.
limits object Limit settings for the parameter.
dependentResourceKey string Key for dependent resources.
parameterDependencyMap object Dependency map for other parameters.

Compute schema

Configuration for compute resources for the service component.

Parameter Type Description
instanceTypes array List of instance types supported.

Instance Type schema

Property Type Description
name string The name of the instance type.
apiParam string The API parameter name associated with the instance type.
cloudProvider string The cloud provider for the instance type (e.g., AWS, GCP).

Network schema

Configuration for network interfaces for the service component

Property Type Description
ports array A list of ports (integer values) that are configured for the network.

Capabilities schema

Specifies capabilities enabled for the service component.

Parameter Type Description
enableMultiZone boolean Whether multi-zone support is enabled.

Helm chart configuration schema

When defining a service component using Helm charts we need to specify the Helm chart definition and values

Info

You can use system parameters to customize Helm Chart values. A detailed list of system parameters be found on Build Guides / System Parameters.

Parameter Type Description
chartName string Name of the Helm chart. Required.
chartVersion string Version of the Helm chart. Required.
chartRepoName string Name of the chart repository. Required.
chartRepoURL string URL of the chart repository. Required.
chartValues object Values to be passed to the Helm chart.
authProvider object Username and password to access private Helm cart repo.

Operator CRD schema

When defining a service component using Operators CRD we need to specify the CDR information as test and add a reference to the required Helm charts

Info

You can use system parameters to customize Operators CRD. A detailed list of system parameters be found on Build Guides / System Parameters.

Property Type Description
template string The template for the operator CRD configuration.
readinessConditions object Conditions that determine the readiness state of the CRD.
supplementalFiles array A list of supplemental file paths (strings) for the CRD.
outputParameters object A map of output parameters with string values.
helmChartDependencies array A list of Helm chart dependencies referenced by the CRD.

Helm chart dependency schema

Property Type Description
chartName string The name of the Helm chart dependency.
chartVersion string The version of the Helm chart dependency.
chartRepoName string Name of the chart repository.
chartRepoURL string URL of the chart repository.
chartValues object Values to be passed to the Helm chart.
authProvider object Username and password to access private Helm cart repo.

Kustomize configuration schema

When defining a service component using Kustomize you need to specify a reference to the GitHub repository where the Kustomize stack is defined.

Property Type Description
kustomizePath string The path to the Kustomize configuration.
gitConfiguration git access schema Configuration for Git access related to Kustomize files.

Terraform configuration schema

When defining a Terraform stack to be executed to provision the service component we need to add a reference to the GitHub repository where the stack definition is stored. A different terraform stack can be defined for each cloud provider.

Info

You can use system parameters to pass input parameters to your Terraform stack. A detailed list of system parameters be found on Build Guides / System Parameters.

Property Type Description
terraformPath string The file path to the Terraform configuration.
