Schema Definition

Application Template Schema

This configuration template is the basis for all environments you will create for this application. Each of the sections and directives file help to create the configuration for your specific environment. The environment_templates section describes differences between your ephemeral and permanent templates and you select one of these when creating an environment. Each section and directive will be described in detail below in this document.

auto_deploy

If true, environments will deploy whenever you push to the corresponding repo and tracking branch.

context

This value is used by your application to deploy to a specific cluster. If you have your own EKS cluster through Release you can change this value to match that cluster/s, but if not use the generated value.

domain

The domain name where your applications will be hosted. These domains must be AWS Route 53 hosted domains. Release supports first and second level domains. (i.e. domain.com or release.domain.com)

execution_type

Determines whether the app creates Server or Runnable Environments

git_fetch_depth

Configures the fetch depth for Git operations in builds. Defaults to fetching the repository's complete Git history. Setting this to 1 will result in a shallow clone and can speed up builds for larger repositories. Defines s3 buckets that can be mounted as volumes in your services.

mode

Mode is a configuration directive that you can use (it is set as an environment variable in your containers) if useful. e.x 'development' or 'production' or 'test'

parallelize_app_imports

If there are no dependencies for the order in which in the apps deploy, use parallelize_app_imports to deploy all the apps at the same time.

tracking_branch

By default this will be the default branch of your repository, but it can be changed to any branch you would like to track with you environments.

tracking_tag

A specific git tag that you want your environments to track. You must unset tracking_branch if you use tracking_tag.

app_imports

App Imports are a way to connect multiple apps together. When you create an environment on one application, the apps that you import will also get environments created in the same namespace. Click here for more info.

builds

You can specify builds at the top level to be pulled in during the services sections. See the builds section for details.

cron_jobs

Cron Jobs are Jobs that run on a schedule. Cron jobs allow you to periodically execute commands within a namespace. They can be used for warming up caches, running database maintenance, etc. Click here for more info.

custom_links

Custom Links are defined as an array of key/value pairs, under the custom_links directive. The key is a name, and the value is any URL you want. The values can be hardcoded URLs or utilize variable substitution.

development_environment

This allows you to connect from a local machine to the remote environment and sync files and folders. Click here for more info.

environment_templates

These templates are used when creating an environment. They allow you to override or change any of the defaults in this file for particular type of environments: ephemeral or permanent. Click here for more info.

hostnames

Hostnames are defined as an array of key/value pairs, under the hostnames directive. The key is a service name, and the value is the hostname. These can be hardcoded hostnames or utilize variable substitution. They are auto-generated for any service with a node_port or static build.

infrastructure

Infrastructure runners are specialized jobs that execute infrastructure as code plans during deployment.

ingress

Ingress settings that can control the behavior and functionality of the NGINX ingress controller to access HTTP services in your cluster.

jobs

Jobs are like services except they run to completion. Examples include database migrations, asset compilation, etc. The inherit the image from a service, and run a command that ultimately terminates. Click here for more info.

node_selector

Node Selectors allow you to assign workloads to particular nodes based on common labels such as kubernetes.io/os=windows and kubernetes.io/arch=arm64. Click here for more information.

notifications

Allow you to define where and which events to be notified. Click here for more info.

parameters

These parameters allows you to collect info from the user at deploy time. You may interpolate these in your configuration and/or use them as inline environment variables for your service, jobs, etc. Click here for more info.

resources

Default resources for all of your services. The structure and values are based on https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/manage-resources-containers/. Click here for more info. For examples of why and how to override these defaults check out Managing Service Resources.

routes

Routes allow an easy way define multiple endpoints per service. Routes allow for edge routing rewrites, authentication and provide full support for ngnix ingress rules.

rules

Rules are based on https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/user-guide/basic-usage/ and allow an easy way define multiple endpoints per service. They consist of three parts: service name, hostnames, and a path. Release will take this configuration and create an Nginx Ingress deployment to handle your routing automatically.

s3_volumes

Defines s3 buckets that can be mounted as volumes in your services

service_accounts

Allow you to define service accounts that can be used to control the cloud permissions assumed by your workloads (services, jobs, cron jobs, etc.)

services

These services define the most important part/s of your application. The can represent services Release builds from your repositories, off-the-shelf containers (postgres, redis, elasticsearch, etc), external services you need to connect to or even services from other applications you have that are needed in this application also. Click here for more info.

shared_volumes

Shared Volumes creates a PersistentVolumeClaim that is written to/read from by multiple services.

sidecars

Top level sidecar definitions allow you to create reusable containers that can be applied to several services defined with in your application. These are useful for log aggregation. Click here for more info.

workflows

Workflows are an ordered list of what must be done to deploy new configuration or code to your environments. They are a combination of services and jobs (if you have them). Click here for more info.

There are three workflows Release supports by default: setup, patch, and teardown. When a new environment is created setup is ran, and when code is pushed a patch is run against that environment. Whenever a an environment is destroyed the teardown workflow is run.

Release also supports user defined workflows that can be run in a one-off manner.

workspaces

Workspaces allow you to assemble multiple repositories or other data sources into a directory tree that can be shared by any number of containers in your environment. Click here for more info.

Hostnames or Rules

Hostnames or Rules can be both be used to define entry points to your services. They can not be used together at the same level in the config. In other words, you can't have default hostnames and rules, but you could have default hostnames and then use rules inside the environment_templates section of the file.

Hostnames

Hostnames are defined as an array of key/value pairs, under the hostnames directive. The key is a service name, and the value is the hostname. These can be hardcoded hostnames or utilize variable substitution. They are auto-generated for any service with a node_port or static build.

---
hostnames:
- frontend: frontend-${env_id}-${domain}
- docs: docs-${env_id}-${domain}
- backend: backend-${env_id}-${domain}

By default, Hostnames are generated using two variables env_id and domain. env_id is a randomly generated string for ephemeral environments or the name of the environment for permanent ones. Using some amount of random values allows Release to bring up any number of ephemeral environments on the same domain without conflicts. Domain is taken directly from your configuration file.

Rules

Rules are based on https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/user-guide/basic-usage/ and allow an easy way define multiple endpoints per service. They consist of three parts: service name, hostnames, and a path. Release will take this configuration and create an Nginx Ingress deployment to handle your routing automatically. The visibility parameter will determine how the URL is reachable on the Internet (or privately via a VPC)

  required: true
  description: Service name from your config
hostnames:

read_timeout:
  type: Integer
  required: false
  description: |
    Set the read_timeout for CDN-based options (`visibility: public` only), defaults to 60 (seconds).

    from_services: redis
    command:
      - sh
      - "-c"
      - "redis-cli -h redis -p 6390 ping"

Example cron job definitions to poll the frontend service and ping Redis

parallelism, completions, and concurrency_policy are ways to control how many pods will be spun up for jobs and how preemption will work. By default, a minimum of one job will run successfully to be considered passing. Also by default, we set concurrency_policy to equal Forbid rather than the default Kubernetes setting of Allow. We have found that the default of Allow creates problems for long running jobs or jobs that are intensive and need to be scheduled on a smaller cluster. For example, if a job runs for ten minutes but is scheduled every five minutes, then Kubernetes will gladly keep starting new jobs indefinitely because it does not think the job is finished. This can quickly overwhelm resources. You can use Forbid to prevent rescheduling jobs that should not be rescheduled even if they are not run or fail to start.

A few examples follow.

cron_jobs:
  - name: poll-frontend
    concurrency_policy: "Forbid"
    parallelism: 1
    completions: 1
    schedule: "0 * * * *"
    image: busybox
    command:
      - sh
      - "-c"
      - "curl http://frontend:8080"

An example of the default settings (same as leaving them blank).

cron_jobs:
  - name: poll-frontend
    concurrency_policy: "Replace"
    parallelism: 2
    completions: 2
    schedule: "*/10 * * * *"
    image: busybox
    command:
      - sh
      - "-c"
      - "curl http://frontend:8080"

An example of a job that will run two polling jobs roughly simultaneously every ten minutes. Two jobs must succeed for the job to be marked complete; if it does not finish within 10 minutes, then the Replace policy will kill the previous job and start a new one in its place.

cron_jobs:
- name: sync-data-lake
  concurrency_policy: "Allow"
  parallelism: 3
  completions: 6
  schedule: "@daily"
  image: busybox
  command:
    - sh
    - "-c"
    - "backup db"

An example of a queue-pulling job that will run 3 threads of self-synchronising pods and usually takes six runs to complete. The setting of Allow will ensure the job starts again if the scheduler decides the jobs did not finish or started late due to resource constraints on the cluster. Please note: completion_mode is not available until v1.24 is supported.

completions

Integer amount greater than zero to indicate how many successful runs should be considered finished. Usually you would set this value equal or greater than parallelism but it might be possible to set it less if you do not care about wasted pods being scheduled. Depending on parallelism and concurrency_policy, the combination of settings may cause jobs to be run multiple times in excess of this value. See the Kubernetes documentation

concurrency_policy

One of Allow, Forbid, or Replace. Kubernetes defaults to Allow which allows jobs to be rescheduled and started if they have failed or haven't started or haven't finished yet. We prefer to set Forbid because it prevents pods from being started or restarted again, which is much safer. The option to use Replace means that if a job is failed or stalled then the previous job start will be killed (if it is still running) before being started on a new pod.

from_services

A reference to the service name to use as the basis for executing the cron job. Parameters from the service will be copied into creating this cron job.

has_repo

Use an internal repository built by Release, or not.

image

A reference to the docker image to execute the job, use if from_services is not a good fit

name

What's in a name? That which we call a rose/By any other name would smell as sweet.

parallelism

Integer amount of number of pods that can run in parallel. Set to 0 to disable the cron job. See the Kubernetes documentation. This controls how many pods are potentially running at the same time during a scheduled run.

schedule

A string representing the schedule when a cron job will execute in the form of minute hour dayofmonth month dayofweek or @monthly, @weekly, etc. Read the Kubernetes docs

args

An array of arguments to be passed to the entrypoint of the container.

command

An array of arguments to be passed to override the entrypoint of the container.

Service Command

Pods running in Kubernetes typically have a default command that is run upon container start. The value specified in the command will override the supplied Docker ENTRYPOINT. Please note there is a lot of confusion for Kubernetes commands and Docker commands since they use similar and overlapping meanings for each. The command is specified as an EXECV array, not a string.

You can specify the override command that a shell will start with.

service:
- name: frontend
  command:
  - "/bin/sh"
  - "-c"
  - "sleep 3600"

Development Environments

Development Environment allows you to configure an environment to be used for remote development. This allows you to connect from a local machine to the remote environment and sync files and folders.

Environment Templates

There are two types of allowed and required templates: ephemeral and permanent. When creating a new environment, either manually or through a pull request one of these templates will be used to construct the configuration for that particular environment. If the template is empty you get the defaults contained in your Application Template, but these templates allow you to override any of the defaults.

The schema for these is a duplicate of the entire default configuration as it allows you override anything contained in this file for that particular template. As such, we won't detail the schema twice, but there are examples contained here showing how to override default configuration in your templates.

Instant Datasets are unique in that they are not allowed at the root of the default config and can only be added under environment_templates. Since Instant Datasets allow you to use instances of RDS databases (often snapshots of production, but they could be snapshots of anything) having this be the default could result in unwanted behavior for you permanent environments.

Release requires you to be explicit on which template/s you would like to (by default) use Instant Datasets. Once you have created an environment you may add Instant Datasets to your environments through the Environment Configuration file if you don't want all environments of a particular type to use datasets.

Ingress settings schema

affinity

Type of the affinity, set this to cookie to enable session affinity. See https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/examples/affinity/cookie/

affinity_mode

The affinity mode defines how sticky a session is. Use balanced to redistribute some sessions when scaling pods or persistent for maximum stickiness.

backend_protocol

Which backend protocol to use (defaults to HTTP, supports HTTP, HTTPS, GRPC, GRPCS, AJP and FCGI)

proxy_body_size

Sets the maximum allowed size of the client request body.

proxy_buffer_size

Sets the size of the buffer used for reading the first part of the response received from the proxied server. This part usually contains a small response header.

proxy_buffering

Enables or disables buffering of responses from the proxied server.

proxy_buffers_number

Sets the number of the buffers used for reading the first part of the response received from the proxied server.

proxy_connect_timeout

Sets the timeout in seconds for establishing a connection with a proxied server or a gRPC server. Most CDN and loadbalancer timeout values are set to 60 seconds, so you should use a value like 50 seconds to ensure you do not leave stranded connections. It should be noted that this timeout cannot exceed 75 seconds.

proxy_max_temp_file_size

When buffering of responses from the proxied server is enabled, and the whole response does not fit into the buffers set by the proxy_buffer_size and proxy_buffers directives, a part of the response can be saved to a temporary file. This directive sets the maximum size of the temporary file.

proxy_read_timeout

Sets the timeout in seconds for reading a response from the proxied server. The timeout is set only between two successive read operations, not for the transmission of the whole response.

proxy_send_timeout

Sets the timeout in seconds for reading a response from the proxied server. The timeout is set only between two successive read operations, not for the transmission of the whole response.

session_cookie_change_on_failure

When set to false nginx ingress will send request to upstream pointed by sticky cookie even if previous attempt failed. When set to true and previous attempt failed, sticky cookie will be changed to point to another upstream.

session_cookie_max_age

Time in seconds until the cookie expires, corresponds to the Max-Age cookie directive.

session_cookie_name

Name of the cookie that will be created (defaults to INGRESSCOOKIE).

session_cookie_path

Path that will be set on the cookie (required because Release Ingress paths use regular expressions).

wafv2_acl_arn

The ARN for an existing WAF ACL to add to the load balancer. AWS-only, and must be created separately.

ip_allow_list

An array of source client CIDRs to allow access (e.g. 10.0.0.0/24, 172.10.0.1) at the ingress.

See https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/user-guide/nginx-configuration/annotations/#whitelist-source-range

ip_deny_list

An array of source client CIDRs to deny access (e.g. 10.0.0.0/24, 172.10.0.1) at the ingress.

See https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/user-guide/nginx-configuration/annotations/#denylist-source-range

Jobs

Jobs allow you to run arbitrary scripts during a deployment. This allows you to do anything before or after a service is deployed that is needed to setup your environment. A common example is database migrations before your backend comes up, but after you have deployed your database. Another good example might be running asset compilation. These tasks and any others can be accomplished using jobs.
