Manage Assets

Learn how to create and manage assets for use with Codiac.

An asset is a workload. Codiac supports two asset types:

  1. Docker image in a public or private registry.
  2. Helm charts.

Create a new asset​

  1. Use codiac asset create to create a new asset from the command line:
codiac asset create
  1. Follow the prompts to:

i. Choose your container registry.

ii. Log into your cloud service provider.

iii. Select the container image for the asset.

iv. Name for the asset within the enterprise: The name to use for the asset in the Codiac web and CLI management. Defaults to the name of the container image.

v. Default port number to assign this asset when deploying to a cabinet: The port on which you want to serve content for the asset. Defaults to port 1, but you may want to choose port 80 for most web-based applications.

vi. Allow external requests (aka: has ingress route): Enter Y if you want Codiac to provision ingress for the asset. Enter N if you don't want Codiac to provision ingress for the asset.

  1. Verify all the parameters are correct, then enter Y to start the asset creation process.

Deploy an asset​

  1. Use codiac asset deploy to deploy the asset to the cabinet. This command defaults to the most recent version of the asset:
codiac asset deploy
  1. Follow the prompts to select the asset, cloud service provider, and cabinet.

View assets and details​

  1. Use codiac asset list to list all the assets in your enterprise.

  2. Use codiac asset view to select an asset and view its logs, configurations, status, and other details.

Remove an asset from a cabinet​

  1. Use codiac asset undeploy to remove an asset from a given cabinet.
codiac asset undeploy

Follow the prompts to choose the asset and the cabinet from which you want the asset removed.

info

This command does not affect the Kubernetes cluster. Your cloud service provider will continue to bill you until you destroy the cluster.

Delete (obliterate) an asset​

The codiac asset obliterate command:

  • Performs a full cascading delete of the given asset.
  • Deletes all of the asset's related data in Codiac, including:
    • Versions
    • Probes
    • Configs
    • Tags
  • Cannot be undone.

This command does NOT:

  • Delete anything from the image registry.
  • Affect your Kubernetes clusters.
tip

You can only delete (obliterate) assets that are not in any cabinets. If the asset you want to obliterate is in a cabinet, use codiac asset undeploy to remove the asset from its cabinet(s) first.

  1. Use codiac asset obliterate to delete the given asset its Codiac data:
codiac asset obliterate

Follow the prompts to choose the asset and confirm you want to delete it.
