This marks the v0.3.0 release of OAM spec.

Since the last release, the spec has undergone the following major changes and improvements:

  • The Application entity has been updated that its components now exposes simplified config attributes to users.
    Behind the scene, the ComponentDefition will be defined by platform team with the actual templating definition.
    In this way, it provides better separation of concerns -- it simplifies the user interfafce, and let the platform experts focus on handling the infra details.

    Here is an example:

    apiVersion: core.oam.dev/v1beta1
    kind: Application
    metadata:
      name: my-example-app
      annotations:
        version: v1.0.0
        description: "Brief description of the application"
    spec:
      components:
        - name: publicweb
          type: web-ui
          properties: # properties targeting component parameters.
            image: example/web-ui:v1.0.2@sha256:verytrustworthyhash
            param_1: "enabled" # param_1 is defined on the web-ui component
          traits:
            - type: ingress # ingress trait providing a public endpoint for the publicweb component of the application.
              properties: # properties are defined by the trait CRD spec. This example assumes path and port.
                path: /
                port: 8080
          scopes:
            "healthscopes.core.oam.dev": "app-health" # An application level health scope including both components.
        - name: backend
          type: company/test-backend # test-backend is referenced from other namespace
          properties:
            debug: "true" # debug is a parameter defined in the test-backend component.
          traits:
            - type: scaler # scaler trait to specify the number of replicas for the backend component
              properties:
                replicas: 4
          scopes:
            "healthscopes.core.oam.dev": "app-health" # An application level health scope including both components.
  • The ComponentDefinition entity has been introduced to replace previous WorkloadDefinition.
    It provides CUE based schematic information which would describe the actual execution plan and
    expose parameters in infra-agnostic format.

    Here is an example:

    apiVersion: core.oam.dev/v1beta1
    kind: ComponentDefinition
    metadata:
      name: webserver
      annotations:
        definition.oam.dev/description: "webserver is a combo of Deployment + Service"
    spec:
      workload:
        definition:
          apiVersion: apps/v1
          kind: Deployment
      schematic:
        cue:
          template: |
            output: {
                apiVersion: "apps/v1"
                kind:       "Deployment"
                spec: {
                    selector: matchLabels: {
                        "app.oam.dev/component": context.name
                    }
                    template: {
                        metadata: labels: {
                            "app.oam.dev/component": context.name
                        }
                        spec: {
                            containers: [{
                                name:  context.name
                                image: parameter.image
    
                                if parameter["cmd"] != _|_ {
                                    command: parameter.cmd
                                }
                                ...
                            }]
                    }
                    }
                }
            }
            // an extra template
            outputs: service: {
                apiVersion: "v1"
                kind:       "Service"
                spec: {
                    selector: {
                        "app.oam.dev/component": context.name
                    }
                    ports: [
                        {
                            port:       parameter.port
                            targetPort: parameter.port
                        },
                    ]
                }
            }
            parameter: {
                image: string
                cmd?: [...string]
                port: *80 | int
            }
  • Replace Workload to Component and WorkloadDefinition to ComponentDefinition to reflect latest changes.

  • The design principles has been updated to highlight runtime neutrality and separation of concerns.
    This is more reflected in the latest Application and ComponentDefinition changes.

  • Semantic versioning has been introduced with the latest release pointed to v0.3.0, and v0.1.x and v0.2.x put into previous releases
