Manage Packages
Now that you have understood how Projects work, we can start adding packages.
Learn more about Packages.
Create a Package
Choose the `Project`` from the drop down and add package.
To create a Package:
- As you click on the Project, you will see the Packages page on the left navigation.
- Go to the All Packages page
- Click on
+ Add Package
. - Give your new package a display name.
- Click on
Create
.
The Package details page will now display for the package. This page allows the user to configure applications with one of more container(s) and define network policies such as traffic routing rules and storage requests.
You can also create a package from the Organisation Overview.
Package Details Page
Each package has a dedicated page that contains all the information required to edit and configure the package.
Update a Package
When needed, you can also update packages to ensure they are up-to-date. On the package details page,
- Click on
Edit
to make changes to the Package name and/or the DNS name. - Once the changes are done, click on
Save
to save changes.
Packages have a dnsName and a displayName property so that you can supply free text names, but also supply DNS formatted names (as required by K8s). The dnsName is used by the backend when deploying packages.
Delete a Package
When you no longer need a Package you can remove it from the project.
- Navigate to the Project page.
- Select the package you want to delete.
- Now you are on the Package details page, Click on
Edit
to make changes. - Now select
Delete
and confirm to delete the Package.
In the next sections we will walk through how to configure an application with container(s) and define placement rules, network policy and storage requests in a package.
