On this guide, we are going to add a plugin to a WDP installation and do some basic operations with it.

Prerequisites

• A preinstalled WDP. See deploying WDP getting started to learn how to deploy WDP.
• kubectl installed and with context configured to have admin access to this kubernetes cluster.
• WDP-CLI installed

We recommend to read documentation about Prelude and Terra-box before follow this tutorial to learn some important concepts.

Adding a new plugin

We already have a basic WDP deploy, but we want to add some extra functionality. On this tutorial, we are going to add mobility plugin. To do that, we need the plugin repository url in git format. With this, you can use the following command:

wdp deploy plugin add mobility -r https://github.com/wizzie-io/wdp-plugin-mobility.git -v 0.2.0

This command adds mobility plugin to global infrastructure. However, mobility is a multitenant plugin, and you have to add to each user component you want to use this plugin. For example, if you want to add the plugin to the example user component, you have to execute:

wdp deploy plugin add mobility -c example

More information about this command in the CLI Reference.

Editing vars

Currently, mobility plugin doesn’t have mandatory vars to be configured, but if you want to configure some var for this plugin, you could do this using wdp edit plugin command.

Applying changes

Finally, you must apply configured changes with wdp deploy apply command. First, you must apply on global with this command:

wdp deploy apply "add mobility to global"

And then, you can add to user components that you want:

wdp deploy apply -c example "add mobility to example user component"
