Questions.yaml structure

This file have some top level attributes:

• Groups
• Portals
• Questions

Groups

Groups can be defined to "group" questions together. This is useful when you have a lot of questions and want to split them into logical groups.

groups:
  - name: "Group 1"
    description: "Description of group 1"
  - name: "Group 2"
    description: "Description of group 2"

• name is what will be used to reference the group in the questions.yaml file.
• description is a what will be displayed in the UI.

Groups can only be referenced by the top level variables in questions attribute.

Portals

Portals can be defined to display a button on the UI that will open a new tab to a specific URL.

portals:
  button_name:
    protocols:
      - https
    host:
      - example.com
    ports:
      - 443
    path: /path/to/something

You can define more than 1 portal. But the name of the portal must be unique.

Portals support some variables that can be used to dynamically generate the URL.

• $variable-VARIABLE_NAME.NESTED_VARIABLE_NAME will be replaced by the value of the variable NESTED_VARIABLE_NAME under the variable VARIABLE_NAME. (Variables are defined in the questions attribute)
• $kubernetes-resource_configmap.RESOURCE_NAME.RESOURCE_KEY will be replaced by the value of the key RESOURCE_KEY in the configmap named RESOURCE_NAME.
• $node_ip will be replaced by the IP of the node where the app is running.
