Kube-native API for cloud development workspaces specification

Sources for this API are defined in Go code, starting from the devworkspace_types.go source file

From these Go sources, several files are generated:

• A Kubernetes Custom Resource Definition(CRD) with an embedded OpenApi schema,
• json schemas (in the schemas folder) generated from the above CRD, to specify the syntax of:
  • the DevWorkspace CRD itself;
  • the DevWorkspaceTemplate CRD (a workspace content, without runtime information);
  • the Devfile 2.0.0 format, which is generated from the DevWorkspace API.

Generated files are created by a build script (see section How to build).

Devfile 2.0.0 file format

A Subset of this DevWorkspace API defines a structure (workspace template content), which is also at the core of the Devfile 2.0 format specification. For more information about this, please look into the Devfile support Readme

The generated documentation of the Devfile 2.0 format, based on its json schema, is available here: https://devfile.github.io

How to build

In order to build the CRD and the various schemas, you don't need to install any pre-requisite apart from docker. In the root directory, just run the following command:

./docker-run.sh ./build.sh

Specification status

This work is still in an early stage of specification, and the related API and schemas are still a draft proposal.

Quickly open and test ?

In order to test existing or new Devfile 2.0 or DevWorkspace sample files in a self-service Che workspace (hosted on che.openshift.io), just click on the button below:

As soon as the workspace is opened, you should be able to:

• open the yaml files in the following folders:
  • samples/
  • devfile-support/samples
• have yaml language support (completion and documentation) based on the current Json schemas.
