Reference for App Specification

Validated on 6 Oct 2020 • Posted on 6 Oct 2020

App Platform is a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering that allows developers to publish code directly to DigitalOcean servers without worrying about the underlying infrastructure.

As an alternative to configuring your app in the control panel, you can define an app specification using YAML. YAML-based app specs are useful for deploying fully-configured apps with the DigitalOcean API or doctl, the DigitalOcean command-line tool.

App Spec Definition

App Spec

The application specification, or app spec, is a YAML manifest that declaratively states everything about your App Platform app, including each resource and all of your app’s environment variables and configuration variables.

Example App Spec

This app spec defines a one-service app that builds and deploys a Dockerfile in the root of the linked repo. The app uses a static site generator called Hugo, passing in HUGO_VERSION as an environment variable. A CORS exception is defined for internal.example-app.com, and an alert is triggered in the event of deployment failure.

    
        
            
alerts:
- rule: DEPLOYMENT_FAILED
domains:
- domain: example-app.com
  type: PRIMARY
features:
- enable-kata-build
name: example-app-name
region: nyc
services:
- cors:
    allow_origins:
    - prefix: https://internal.example-app.com
  dockerfile_path: Dockerfile
  envs:
  - key: HUGO_VERSION
    scope: RUN_AND_BUILD_TIME
    value: 0.81.0
  github:
    branch: main
    deploy_on_push: true
    repo: example-org/example-repo
  http_port: 80
  instance_count: 2
  instance_size_slug: professional-xs
  name: example-service-name
  routes:
  - path: /

YAML File Structure

This reference covers all possible values that can be defined in an app spec. Whitespace defines hierarchy in YAML files, so this reference uses whitespace to nest child values under parent values. Where the string (array) appears, you can define more than one of the child values, but you must prefix them with a - dash as shown, per YAML syntax.
