configfile

Description

The command line client supports configuring by a given configuration file. If existent, by default, the file $HOME/.ocmconfig will be read. Using the option –config an alternative file can be specified.

The file format is yaml. It uses the same type mechanism used for all kinds of typed specification in the ocm area. The file must have the type of a configuration specification. Instead, the command line client supports a generic configuration specification able to host a list of arbitrary configuration specifications. The type for this spec is generic.config.ocm.software/v1.

The following configuration types are supported:

  • attributes.config.ocm.software The config type attributes.config.ocm.software can be used to define a list of arbitrary attribute specifications:

        type: attributes.config.ocm.software
    attributes:
       <name>: <yaml defining the attribute>
       ...

  • cli.ocm.config.ocm.software The config type cli.ocm.config.ocm.software is used to handle the main configuration flags of the OCM command line tool.

        type: cli.ocm.config.ocm.software
    aliases:
       <name>: <OCI registry specification>
       ...

  • credentials.config.ocm.software The config type credentials.config.ocm.software can be used to define a list of arbitrary configuration specifications:

        type: credentials.config.ocm.software
    consumers:
      - identity:
          <name>: <value>
          ...
        credentials:
          - <credential specification>
          ... credential chain
    repositories:
       - repository: <repository specification>
         credentials:
          - <credential specification>
          ... credential chain
    aliases:
       <name>: 
         repository: <repository specification>
         credentials:
          - <credential specification>
          ... credential chain

  • downloader.ocm.config.ocm.software The config type downloader.ocm.config.ocm.software can be used to define a list of preconfigured download handler registrations (see ocm ocm-downloadhandlers):

        type: downloader.ocm.config.ocm.software
    description: "my standard download handler configuration"
    handlers:
      - name: oci/artifact
        artifactType: ociImage
        mimeType:
        config: ...
      ...

  • generic.config.ocm.software The config type generic.config.ocm.software can be used to define a list of arbitrary configuration specifications and named configuration sets:

        type: generic.config.ocm.software
    configurations:
      - type: <any config type>
        ...
      ...
    sets:
       standard:
          description: my selectable standard config
          configurations:
            - type: ...
              ...
            ...

    Configurations are directly applied. Configuration sets are just stored in the configuration context and can be applied on-demand. On the CLI, this can be done using the main command option –config-set <name>.

  • hasher.config.ocm.software The config type hasher.config.ocm.software can be used to define the default hash algorithm used to calculate digests for resources. It supports the field hashAlgorithm, with one of the following values:

    • NO-DIGEST
    • SHA-256 (default)
    • SHA-512

  • keys.config.ocm.software The config type keys.config.ocm.software can be used to define public and private keys. A key value might be given by one of the fields:

    • path: path of file with key data
    • data: base64 encoded binary data
    • stringdata: data a string parsed by key handler
        type: keys.config.ocm.software
    privateKeys:
       <name>:
         path: <file path>
       ...
    publicKeys:
       <name>:
         data: <base64 encoded key representation>
       ...
    rootCertificates:
      - path: <file path>

    issuers:
       <name>:
         commonName: acme.org

    Issuers define an expected distinguished name for public key certificates optionally provided together with signatures. They support the following fields:

    • commonName string
    • organization string array
    • organizationalUnit string array
    • country string array
    • locality string array
    • province string array
    • streetAddress string array
    • postalCode string array

    At least the given values must be present in the certificate to be accepted for a successful signature validation.

  • logging.config.ocm.software The config type logging.config.ocm.software can be used to configure the logging aspect of a dedicated context type:

        type: logging.config.ocm.software
    contextType: attributes.context.ocm.software
    settings:
      defaultLevel: Info
      rules:
        - ...

    The context type attributes.context.ocm.software is the root context of a context hierarchy.

    If no context type is specified, the config will be applies to any target acting as logging context provider, which is not a non-root context.

  • memory.credentials.config.ocm.software The config type memory.credentials.config.ocm.software can be used to define a list of arbitrary credentials stored in a memory based credentials repository:

        type: memory.credentials.config.ocm.software
    repoName: default
    credentials:
      - credentialsName: ref
        reference:  # refer to a credential set stored in some other credential repository
          type: Credentials # this is a repo providing just one explicit credential set
          properties:
            username: mandelsoft
            password: specialsecret
      - credentialsName: direct
        credentials: # direct credential specification
            username: mandelsoft2
            password: specialsecret2

  • merge.config.ocm.software The config type merge.config.ocm.software can be used to set some assignments for the merging of (label) values. It applies to a value merge handler registry, either directly or via an OCM context.

        type: merge.config.ocm.software
    labels:
    - name: acme.org/audit/level
      merge:
        algorithm: acme.org/audit
        config: ...
    assignments:
       label:acme.org/audit/level@v1: 
          algorithm: acme.org/audit
          config: ...
          ...

  • oci.config.ocm.software The config type oci.config.ocm.software can be used to define OCI registry aliases:

        type: oci.config.ocm.software
    aliases:
       <name>: <OCI registry specification>
       ...

  • ocm.cmd.config.ocm.software The config type ocm.cmd.config.ocm.software can be used to configure predefined aliases for dedicated OCM repositories and OCI registries.

       type: ocm.cmd.config.ocm.software
   ocmRepositories:
       <name>: <specification of OCM repository>
   ...
   ociRepositories:
       <name>: <specification of OCI registry>
   ...

  • ocm.config.ocm.software The config type ocm.config.ocm.software can be used to set some configurations for an OCM context;

        type: ocm.config.ocm.software
    aliases:
       myrepo: 
          type: <any repository type>
          <specification attributes>
          ...
    resolvers:
      - repository:
          type: <any repository type>
          <specification attributes>
          ...
        prefix: ghcr.io/open-component-model/ocm
        priority: 10

    With aliases repository alias names can be mapped to a repository specification. The alias name can be used in a string notation for an OCM repository.

    Resolvers define a list of OCM repository specifications to be used to resolve dedicated component versions. These settings are used to compose a standard component version resolver provided for an OCM context. Optionally, a component name prefix can be given. It limits the usage of the repository to resolve only components with the given name prefix (always complete name segments). An optional priority can be used to influence the lookup order. Larger value means higher priority (default 10).

    All matching entries are tried to lookup a component version in the following order:

    • highest priority first
    • longest matching sequence of component name segments first.

    If resolvers are defined, it is possible to use component version names on the command line without a repository. The names are resolved with the specified resolution rule. They are also used as default lookup repositories to lookup component references for recursive operations on component versions (–lookup option).

  • plugin.config.ocm.software The config type plugin.config.ocm.software can be used to configure a plugin.

        type: plugin.config.ocm.software
    plugin: <plugin name>

  • rootcerts.config.ocm.software The config type rootcerts.config.ocm.software can be used to define general root certificates. A certificate value might be given by one of the fields:

    • path: path of file with key data
    • data: base64 encoded binary data
    • stringdata: data a string parsed by key handler
        rootCertificates:
      - path: <file path>

  • scripts.ocm.config.ocm.software The config type scripts.ocm.config.ocm.software can be used to define transfer scripts:
