-Component specification (CDAP)
-==============================
-
-The CDAP component specification contains the following groups of
-information. Many of these are common to both CDAP and Docker components
-and are therefore described in the common specification.
-
-- :any:`Metadata <metadata>`
-- :any:`Interfaces <interfaces>` including the
- associated :any:`Data Formats <data-formats>`
-- :any:`Parameters <parameters>` - for specifying parameters in your
- AppConfig, AppPreferences, and ProgramPreferences to the Designer and
- Policy. This of course is CDAP-specific and is described below.
-- :any:`Auxiliary Details <auxiliary-details>`
-- :any:`List of artifacts <artifacts>`
-
-Current Limitations and TODOs
------------------------------
-
-- The integration of DMD is likely to significantly change the
- :any:`Interfaces <interfaces>` section in this specification.
-
-.. _parameters:
-
-Parameters
-----------
-
-There is a ``parameters`` section in your component specification. This
-section contains three optional keys: `app_config <#appconfig>`__,
-`app_preferences <#apppreferences>`__, and
-`program_preferences <#programpreferences>`__:
-
-::
-
- "parameters" : {
- "app_config" : [ ...],
- "app_preferences" : [ ...],
- "program_preferences" : [...]
- // any additional keys are ignored
- }
-
-- Each section details the parameters that are a part of each of these
- CDAP constructs (see below).
-- All such parameters will be exposed to the designer and to policy for
- override.
-- These parameters should have default values specified by the
- component developer where necessary, i.e., parameters that *must*
- come from the designer/policy should not have defaults.
-- All of these keys are optional because not every CDAP application
- uses preferences and not every application uses the AppConfig.
- However, you should specify at least one, or else your application
- will have no parameters exposed to policy or to the DCAE designer,
- which means it would be non-configurable.
-- Despite the AppConfig being optional to *specify* in the case that
- you have no parameters in your AppConfig, it is *required for
- processing* in your application. That is because the DCAE platform
- will place important information into your AppConfig as discussed
- below.
-
-Parameter
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-The following CDAP specific definitions use ``param1`` to refer to the
-common parameter layout in
-:any:`Parameter <parameters>`
-
-AppConfig
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-The ``app_config`` key refers to the `CDAP AppConfig <http://docs.cask.co/cdap/current/en/reference-manual/http-restful-api/configuration.html>`_.
-It is expected to be a JSON:
-
-::
-
- "app_config" : [ // list of JSON
- param1, // common parameter layout
- ...
- ]
-
-Unfortunately, at the time of writing, the AppConfig is a Java map of
-``string:string``, which means you cannot have more complex structures
-(than string) as any value in your AppConfig. However, there is a way to
-bypass this constraint: you can pass a JSON by encoding the JSON as a
-string. E.g., the ``json.dumps()`` and it’s converse ``loads`` methods
-in Python:
-
-::
-
- >>> import json
- >>> json.dumps({"foo" : "bar"}) # This is a real JSON
- '{"foo": "bar"}' # It is now a string: pass this in as your parameter value
- >>> json.loads('{"foo": "bar"}') # Do the equivelent of this in your application
- {u'foo': u'bar'} # ...and you'll get back a real JSON
- >>>
-
-The final AppConfig (after the designer and policy override parameter
-values) is passed into CDAP’s AppConfig API when starting the
-application.
-
-
-AppPreferences
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-In addition to the CDAP AppConfig, the platform supports `Application Preferences <http://docs.cask.co/cdap/current/en/reference-manual/http-restful-api/preferences.html#set-preferences>`_.
-The format of the ``app_preferences`` value is the same as the above:
-
-::
-
- "app_preferences" : [ // list of JSON
- param1, // common parameter layout
- ...
- ]
-
-The final Application Preferences JSON (after the designer and policy
-override parameter values) is passed into CDAP’s Preferences API when
-starting your application.
-
-
-ProgramPreferences
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Preferences can also be specified `per program <http://docs.cask.co/cdap/current/en/reference-manual/http-restful-api/lifecycle.html#program-lifecycle>`_
-in CDAP. This key’s value is a list of JSON with the following format:
-
-::
-
- "program_preferences" : [ // note: this is a list of JSON
- {
- "program_id" : "program name 1", // the name of this CDAP program
- "program_type" : "e.g., flows", // "must be one of flows, mapreduce, schedules, spark, workflows, workers, or services",
- "program_pref" : [ // list of JSON
- param1, // common parameter layout
- ...
- ]
- },
- // repeat for each program that receives a program_preferences JSON
- ]
-
-Each ``program_pref`` JSON is passed into the CDAP API as the preference
-for ``program_id``.
-
-NOTE: for CDAP, this section is very likely to change when DMD is
-available. The *future* vision is
-that you would publish your data as a series of files on HDFS, and DMD
-will pick them up and send them to the appropriate DMaaP feeds or
-directly when needed.
-
-.. _auxiliary-details:
-
-Auxiliary Details
------------------
-
-*auxiliary* contains details about CDAP specific parameters.
-
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-| Property Name | Type | Description |
-+======================+======================+======================+
-| streamname | string | *Required*. |
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-| artifact_name | string | |
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-| artifact_version | string | the version of your |
-| | | CDAP JAR artifact |
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-| namespace | string | the CDAP namespace |
-| | | to deploy into, |
-| | | default is ‘default’ |
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-| programs | array | contains each CDAP |
-| | | entity represented |
-| | | in the artifact |
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-| program_type | string | CDAP entity (eg |
-| | | “flows”) |
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-| program_id | string | name of CDAP entity |
-| | | (eg “WhoFlow”) |
-+----------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
-
-Example:
-
-.. code:: json
-
- "auxiliary": {
- "streamname" : "who",
- "artifact_name" : "HelloWorld",
- "artifact_version" : "3.4.3",
- "namespace" : "hw",
- "programs" : [
- {"program_type" : "flows", "program_id" : "WhoFlow"},
- {"program_type" : "services", "program_id" : "Greeting"},
- ...
- ],
- }
-
-The ``programs`` key is identical to the ``program_preferences`` key
-discussed `above <#programpreferences>`__ except:
-
-- each JSON in the list does not contain ``program_pref``
-- this is required! You must include all of your programs in this, as
- it is used to start each program as well as for DCAE to perform
- periodic healthchecks on your application. Don’t forget about your
- services; they are programs too.
