Resources in a StackPack

StackState Self-hosted v4.5.x

This page describes StackState v4.5.x. The StackState 4.5 version range is End of Life (EOL) and no longer supported. We encourage customers still running the 4.5 version range to upgrade to a more recent release.

Go to the documentation for the latest StackState release.

The resources reside in <your-stackpack>/src/main/stackpack/resources directory. This folder contains files to be used mostly as display assets in the StackState UI as steps during the StackPack installation process. Some of the files are required for a StackPack to be displayed correctly:

  • logo.png - an image file with the StackPack logo that is displayed on the StackPacks page in StackState.

  • overview.md - a markdown text file with general information about the StackPack.

  • configuration.md - a markdown text file with information about how to configure a StackPack instance.

    This is a piece of information the user is going to see in the first step of the installation process.

  • waitingfordata.md - a markdown text file with information about user actions required for the StackPack instance to start receiving data.

    This is a piece of information the user is going to see in the second step of the installation process.

  • enabled.md - a markdown text file explaining that the StackPack instance has been installed successfully.

    Should also contain information on how to uninstall the instance.

    This is a piece of information the user is going to see in the final step of the installation process.

  • detailed-overview.md - a markdown text file with general information the user needs to know to use a StackPack instance, e.g., prerequisites or access rights. To achieve a two-column layout, there is a special [comment]: # (split) tag. Inserting this tag in a particular place will cause the text to be split into two columns in this place.

  • provisioning.md - a markdown text file with a piece of information the user is going to see during the installation process.

  • deprovisioning.md - a markdown text file with a piece of information the user is going to see during the uninstallation process.

  • error.md - a markdown text file with an error message to show when an error occurred during provisioning of the StackPack.
