Addon Settings

This documentation provides a comprehensive guide to managing and configuring add-on settings in PipeOps. With PipeOps, you can easily customize various aspects of your add-on to meet specific requirements and optimize its performance.

Access add-on Settings​

To access add-on settings:

  • Navigate to your add-on's main page on PipeOps.
  • Click on the "Settings" tab to access the add-on settings dashboard.

Explore Individual Addon Settings​

The add-on settings dashboard is organized into several subsections, each catering to specific configuration areas:

General Settings​

In this section, you can manage basic add-on details such as:

  • Add-on Name: Rename your add-on. This also customises your PipeOps domain name for you. For more information on this click here

Environment Variable​

Here you can perform either of the following options:

  • Edit Existing Variables: Modify existing environment variables.
  • Create New Variables: Add new environment variables individually or in bulk. We will discuss the two ways to create environmental variables in more detail.

  1. Using the Bulk Edit Button: After clicking on the bulk edit button, a pop-up appears where you can add all your environment variables at once. This is especially useful if your add-on has a lot of environment variables that it depends on.

add-on Env Bulk Edit

  1. Using the Add Button: After clicking on the Add button, a new row where you can add a new environment variable appears as shown below. Fill in the details for your new environment variable and click the save button on the bottom right corner of the pop-up.

Resources and Replication​

There are 2 subsections under this:

  1. General resources: You can configure preset templates that will determine the CPU cores and the amount of memory that will be allocated to your add-on.

  1. Replication: Here you can select the number of replicas of your add-on that will be created. Replication is especially useful for enhanced redundancy and performance.

Storage​

For database add-ons, this section allows you to add an extra storage space. To do that:

  • Click on the "Add Storage" button.
  • Specify the path for the additional storage.
  • Input the amount of storage you need (in Gigabytes) and click Save.

Domains​

When you deploy your application on PipeOps, it comes with a randomly generated name, such as familiar-team-thoughtless.pipeops.app. But wouldn't it be great to have a custom and memorable domain like https://shopmart.pipeops.app? With PipeOps, you can easily set a unique domain for your add-on.

To customise the URL of your deployed add-on:

  • Enter a valid domain name you would like to use.
  • Click Save and a redeployment will be triggered for your add-on with the custom domain name you set for it.
