App Name Plugin

The app name plugin makes rules for Spinnaker application names configurable.

Proprietary

Requirements

For Armory Continuous Deployment 2.27.x (OSS 1.27.x) and later, you must use version 0.2.0 or later of the plugin.

Limitations

The following characters cannot be part of the application name:

  • : is used as a separator in database identifiers.
  • / is used as path separator in some requests from Deck to Gate.
  • appStackDetailSeparator is used as separator in server group names deployed with Spinnaker.

For Armory 2.22 (OSS 1.22) and lower, changing appStackDetailSeparator from its default value of - has known issues in Cloud Foundry deployments.

Setup

The plugin can be delivered using two different methods:

  1. Docker image as an init container on each affected service
  2. Using a remote plugin repository

Docker image as init container

{{< tabpane text=true right=true >}} {{% tab header="Operator" %}}

This is a sample configuration to use with the Spinnaker operator:

        gate:

                name: appname-plugin-vol

{{% /tab %}} {{< /tabpane >}}

Remote plugin repository

The configuration is mostly identical to the Docker image method but omits all volumes and init container configurations. Additionally, replace all occurrences of the following:

url: file:///opt/spinnaker/lib/local-plugins/appname/plugins.json

with:

url: https://armory.jfrog.io/artifactory/plugins/appname/plugins.json

Usage

The plugin allows you to configure different application name regex patterns and constraints for each cloud provider. For example:

armory:
  appnameplugin:
    appStackDetailSeparator: '-'
    providerConstraints:
      kubernetes:
        nameRegex: ^[a-zA-Z0-9.]*$
        maxLength: 64
      cloudfoundry:
        nameRegex: ^app#[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*?$
        maxLength: 64

The above configuration sets different rules for applications if they get deployed to Kubernetes or Cloud Foundry. Applications that use other providers continue to use the default Spinnaker rules.

The appStackDetailSeparator is a separator character used to build server group names in VM type deployments, like AWS or Cloud Foundry. This separator character is not allowed to be part of the application name.
