Motivation

• repository serves as a one-stop catalog hub of source files which may come handy during cloud-native endeavours
• provided template can be a code snippet solving a simple task (e.g. prometheus alerting manifest) or a fully-fledged solution (e.g. well-architected gke deployment)
• functional, rather than language or technology, folder structure. functional categories are highly opinionated and are subject to review
• flat folder structure with a single root for each functional topic, and a sub-folder for each template
• repository contains not only blueprints/battle-proven/reference solutions but also technology experiments which serve as a boostrap and may experience further improvements in terms of performance and best practices

Template Descriptor

The .cctemplate is a Template Descriptor file that describes the contents of your repository so that Cloud Code knows where to look for your templates. It should look something like the following:

{
    "metadata": {
        "version": "1"
    },
    "templates": [
        {
            "path": "path/to/my/template",
            "name": "My Template",
            "description": "This template helps you create something amazing!"
        },
        ...
    ]
}

You can learn more about the Template Descriptor schema here.

Contributing

1. Create a new directory containing your own template (or make changes to any of the sample templates)
2. If you are not originating a template make sure a license from sourced repo is included
3. Establish a feedback channel by referencing either a maintainer or a source repo in the contents section
4. Make any necessary updates to the templates in the .cctemplate file
5. Import updated repository into Cloud Code
