Application Broker
An application broker is a component that lets you transform your application into an offering in the TAP services marketplace. List of all such offerings is called catalog. To inform broker that it should be aware of your app you need to perform steps described below. You can do it either from user interface or command line.
- From the Applications page, select the link > See details>> in your application row to access the applications overview page.
- From the application overview page select the tab > Register in marketplace.
- Fill out the form provided and select > Register.
Your application will now be available in the > Services > Marketplace to others within your organization.
- First of all, you will need to have application-broker repository cloned. Repository's root directory contains register.sh script that you will have to use to register your application. If you are interested in technical details please skim through the code of this script. At a glance, it performs POST requests against broker API.
- Before executing script, target to space containing your application. Use cf-cli to do so.
cf target -o orgContainingYourApp -s spaceContainingYourApp
-
Execute ./register.sh using all hints served by help.
-
Your application will now be available as a service for all organization within your TAP installation.
