data

In case there are data objects (JSON documents), typically based on a schema, they should be stored inside this path structure:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/data/form/create-user
<NAME>/<UUID>

Whereas <NAME> is the name of the data object.

<UUID> is the unique id of a single data object.

For example:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/data/form/delete-user

See here for more details: Forms Framework

/function

This optional folder contains all Python FaaS functions which will be automatically deployed when such a property of this app is stored in the property store in this folder.

For more information see: Python Functions

Info

Any time the hub service restarts (for example because of rescaling), all function scripts inside this folder will be automatically scanned and re-deployed to the FaaS backend if required.

/i18n

This optional folder contains all internationalization (i18n) files like message files and other resources.
Also see: Internationalization (i18n).

/install

Status
colourBlue
titleSInce Version 9.0

This optional folder can also contain pipeline YAML scripts. These pipelines will be executed only in case the app will be installed using the app.install or app.update command.

This is handy in case you would like to do some preparation on the install or update phase of an app like migrations for example.

The pipelines will be executed in their natural naming order. So if you would like to make sure a pipeline gets executed the very first, make sure it is at the very top of the naming order by using prefixes like 001-, 002- and so on.

Info

The pipelines in this folder wont be auto-executed on save of properties in the portal or on publish using the CLI or on hub restart. Only the initial app.install will execute them.

/list

This optional folder contains all list configuration properties for any list of the app, whereas the name of the property is the name of the list. For example:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/list/all-users
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/list/all-employees

See here for more details: List Framework

/object

This optional folder contains any application model (schema) and its instances (if there are any).

/schema

...

person/fa471958-fdb7-4bf6-a0a3-c5e8c782893e

Each instance property will contain as value the data of the object instance which typically matches the schema, for example:

Code Block
languagejson
{
  "firstName": "Homer",
  "lastName": "Simpson",
  "age": 48,
  "gender": "male"
}

/form

This optional folder contains all form configurations for any form of the app, whereas the name of the property is the name of the form. For example:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/form/create-user
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/form/delete-user

See here for more details: Forms Framework

This optional folder contains all list configuration properties for any list of the app, whereas the name of the property is the name of the list. For example:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/object/<NAME>/<VERSION>/schema

Whereas <NAME> is the name of the object.

<VERSION> is the version of the object schema.

For example:

Code Block
object/person/v1/schema

The schema property typically contains as value a JSON schema, which describes this object. For the person object, the schema could, for example, look like this:

Code Block
languagejson
{
  "type": "object",

  "properties": {
    "firstName": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "lastName": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "age": {

The schema of an object is stored in a property having this path:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/object/<NAME>/<VERSION>/schema

Whereas <NAME> is the name of the object.

<VERSION> is the version of the object schema.

For example:

Code Block
object/person/v1/schema

The schema property typically contains as value a JSON schema, which describes this object. For the person object, the schema could, for example, look like this:

Code Block
languagejson
{
  "type": "object",

  "properties": {
    "firstName": {

In case there are object instances (JSON documents) based on a schema, they should be typically stored inside this path structure:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/object/<NAME>/<VERSION>/instance/<UUID>

Whereas <NAME> is the name of the object.

<VERSION> is the version of the object schema.

<UUID> is the unique id of a single object.

For example:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/object/person/v1/instance/fa471958-fdb7-4bf6-a0a3-c5e8c782893e

Each instance property will contain as value the data of the object instance which matches the object schema, for example:

Code Block
languagejson
{
  "firstName": "Homer",
  "lastName": "Simpson",
  "age": 48,
  "gender": "male"
}

/pipeline

This optional folder contains all persisted pipeline YAML scripts for the given app. A pipeline can be seen as the business logic or data integration part of an application.

Each property name corresponds with the name of the pipeline and contains as value the pipeline YAML script.

Examples:

Code Block
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/pipeline/001-send-invite-email
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/pipeline/add-to-sap
global/app/tld.domain.myapp/pipeline/inform-hr

Such a pipeline YAML script could look like this:

Code Block
languageyaml
pipeline:
  - mail.send:
      to: hr@company.de
      subject: "A new employee was addded!"

Also see Data Pipeline for more details how to create persisted pipelines.

Info

Any time the hub service restarts (for example because of rescaling), all pipeline scripts inside this folder (recursively) will be automatically scanned and any trigger command inside each pipeline will be re-registered (for example jobs, message listeners, …).

/report

This optional folder can contain all report configurations.

See here for more details: Reporting Framework

/resource

This optional folder can contain any resource required inside the app. For example images, CSS files or similar.

/schema

Whereas <NAME> is the name of the object.

<VERSION> is the version of the object schema.

<UUID> is the unique id of a single object.

data object this schema stands for.
