Usage¶

This document holds instructions on using Vintner.

Use the CLI¶

First, we ensure that Vintner can be executed.

1

vintner --version

From there on use the help command. See Interface for a complete interface specification.

vintner --help

Enable an Orchestrator¶

Vintner requires an orchestrator for the deployment. See Orchestrators for a complete interface specification.

First, we initialize the config.

vintner orchestrators init ${ORCHESTRATOR_NAME}

Next, we enable the orchestrator.

vintner orchestrators enable ${ORCHESTRATOR_NAME}

Deploy an Application¶

First, we import the Variability4TOSCA template.

1

vintner templates import --template ${TEMPLATE_NAME} --path ${TEMPLATE_PATH}

Next, we initialize an application instance.

1

vintner instances init --instance ${INSTANCE_NAME} --template ${TEMPLATE_NAME}

Next, we specify variability inputs.

Next, we resolve the variability.

1

vintner instances resolve --instance ${INSTANCE_NAME} --inputs ${VARIABILITY_INPUTS}

Next, we specify deployment inputs.

Next, we deploy the application.

1

vintner instances deploy --instance ${INSTANCE_NAME} --inputs ${DEPLOYMENT_INPUTS_PATH}

Undeploy an Application¶

Eventually, we undeploy the application.
