The single Platform Resource represents a build configuration for a specific App. It has exactly one CodeSource and DataSource, and at least one Target. It may have an arbitrary number of Deployments. It has a specific PlatformType that defines the behavior when deploying.

The JSON Schema is https://schema.entrecode.de/schema-app/platform.

Possible Actions

Editing (PUT) is currently not implemented.

Read

To read a single Platform Resource, clients may perform GET on a ec:app/platform relation.

To read the Platform List Resource, clients may perform GET on a ec:app/platforms relation or on the collection relation of a single Platform resource.

In both cases, the success status code is 200 OK.

Create

To create a new Platform Resource, clients may perform a POST on ec:app/platforms (the list resource). The JSON Schema for creating a new Platform is https://schema.entrecode.de/schema-app/platform-template.

The success status code is 201 Created and the response body is the newly created single Platform resource.

Note that the used CodeSource, DataSource and Targets have to be created first.

Delete

To delete an existing Platform Resource, clients may perform a DELETE on ec:platform or self at a single Platform Resource.

This also deletes the related deployment resources, so handle with care! CodeSources, DataSources and Targets stay.

The success status code is 204 No Content with an empty response body.

Platform Types

All Platform types SHOULD contain a required property hexColor in the config_schema. hexColor SHOULD be the regex format ^#[A-Fa-f0-9]{6}$ (#d23738).
