Nuon supports several different component types which allow you to connect your existing devops automation, infrastructure as code and containers to your app.

​
What is a Component?

A component represents a part of your application, Nuon supports the following components:

  • Docker - any Dockerfile that can be built.
  • Container Images - any prebuilt OCI image.
  • Helm Charts - any Helm chart located in a repository.
  • Terraform - any Terraform module.
  • Jobs - any script that can be executed using an OCI image.

Setting up an application requires definining and testing your application configuration.

​
Component Management

The cli exposes many operational commands to manage components.

To see all available commands, run: nuon components --help.

Make sure to select an app using nuon apps select before using the components commands, or pass the -a flag to each component command.

​
Pinning a Component

You can pin a component, which will set it’s ID as a default argument to all component commands. This is helpful to avoid having to pass -c to each command.

Each example below assumes you have run nuon components select first.

To show the currently pinned component:
