-
-What is Component Specification?
-================================
-
-This page will discuss categories defined in :any:`component specification schema <dcae-component-schema>` and their usage.
-
-
-Meta Schema Definition
-----------------------
-
-
-The “Meta Schema” implementation defines how component specification
-JSON schemas can be written to define user input. It is itself a JSON
-schema (thus it is a “meta schema”). It requires the name of the
-component entry, component type (either ‘cdap’ or ‘docker’) and a
-description under “self” object. The meta schema version must be
-specified as the value of the “version” key. Then the input schema
-itself is described.
-
-There are four types of schema descriptions objects - jsonschema for
-inline standard JSON Schema definitions of JSON inputs, delimitedschema
-for delimited data input using a JSON description defined by AT&T,
-unstructured for unstructured text, and reference that allows a pointer
-to another artifact for a schema. The reference allows for XML and Protocol Buffer schema,
-but can be used as a pointer to JSON, Delimited Format, and Unstructured
-schemas as well.
-
-.. _metadata:
-
-Component Metadata
-------------------
-
-Metadata refers to the properties found under the ``self`` JSON. This
-group of properties is used to uniquely identify this component
-specification and identify the component that this specification is used
-to capture.
-
-Example:
-
-::
-
-    "self": {
-        "version": "1.0.0",
-        "name": "yourapp.component.kpi_anomaly",
-        "description": "Classifies VNF KPI data as anomalous",
-        "component_type": "docker"
-    },

-Interfaces
-----------
-
-Interfaces are the JSON objects found under the ``streams`` key and the
-``services`` key. These are used to describe the interfaces that the
-component uses and the interfaces that the component provides. The
-description of each interface includes the associated :any:`data
-format <data-formats>`.
-
-Streams
-~~~~~~~
-
--  The ``streams`` JSON is for specifying data produced for consumption
-   by other components, and the streams expected to subscribe to that is
-   produced by other components. These are “fire and forget” type
-   interfaces where the publisher of a stream does not expect or parse a
-   response from the subscriber.
--  The term ``stream`` here is abstract and neither refers to “CDAP
-   streams” or “DMaaP feeds”. While a stream is very likely a DMaaP
-   feed, it could be a direct stream of data being routed via HTTP too.
-   It abstractly refers to a sequence of data leaving a publisher.
--  Streams have anonymous publish/subscribe semantics, which decouples
-   the production of information from its consumption.  Like the component 
-   specification, the data format specification is represented/validated against this
-   `Data Format json schema <https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=dcaegen2/platform/cli.git;a=blob;f=component-json-schemas/data-format/dcae-cli-v1/data-format-schema.json;h=be1568291300305c7adb9a8d244d39f9e6ddadbd;hb=HEAD>`__
--  In general, components are not aware of who they are communicating
-   with.
--  Instead, components that are interested in data, subscribe to the
-   relevant stream; components that generate data publish to the
-   relevant stream.
--  There can be multiple publishers and subscribers to a stream. Streams
-   are intended for unidirectional, streaming communication.
-
-Streams interfaces that implement an HTTP endpoint must support POST.
-
-Streams are split into:

-Subscribes
-^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Example:
-
-.. code:: json
-
-    "streams": {
-        "subscribes": [{
-            "format": "dcae.vnf.kpi",
-            "version": "1.0.0",
-            "route": "/data",        // for CDAP this value is not used
-            "type": "http"
-        }],
-    ...
-    }
-
-This describes that ``yourapp.component.kpi_anomaly`` exposes an HTTP
-endpoint called ``/data`` which accepts requests that have the data
-format of ``dcae.vnf.kpi`` version ``1.0.0``.

-Message router
-''''''''''''''
-
-Message router subscribers are http clients rather than http services
-and performs a http a ``GET`` call. Thus, message router subscribers
-description is structured like message router publishers and requires
-``config_key``:
-
-.. code:: json
-
-    "streams": {
-        "subscribes": [{
-            "format": "dcae.some-format",
-            "version": "1.0.0",
-            "config_key": "some_format_handle",
-            "type": "message router"
-        }],
-    ...
-    }
-
-
-.. _data-router:
-
-Data router
-'''''''''''
-
-Data router subscribers are http or https services that handle ``PUT``
-requests from data router. Developers must provide the ``route`` or url
-path/endpoint that is expected to handle data router requests. This will
-be used to construct the delivery url needed to register the subscriber
-to the provisioned feed. Developers must also provide a ``config_key``
-because there is dynamic configuration information associated with the
-feed that the application will need e.g. username and password. See the
-page on :any:`DMaaP connection objects <dmaap-data-router>` for more details on
-the configuration information.

-Services
-~~~~~~~~
-
--  The publish / subscribe model is a very flexible communication
-   paradigm, but its many-to-many one-way transport is not appropriate
-   for RPC request / reply interactions, which are often required in a
-   distributed system.
--  Request / reply is done via a Service, which is defined by a pair of
-   messages: one for the request and one for the reply.
-
-Services are split into:

-Calls
-^^^^^
-
-The JSON ``services/calls`` is for specifying that the component relies
-on an HTTP(S) service—the component sends that service an HTTP request,
-and that service responds with an HTTP reply. An example of this is how
-string matching (SM) depends on the AAI Broker. SM performs a
-synchronous REST call to the AAI broker, providing it the VMNAME of the
-VNF, and the AAI Broker responds with additional details about the VNF.
-This dependency is expressed via ``services/calls``. In contrast, the
-output of string matching (the alerts it computes) is sent directly to
-policy as a fire-and-forget interface, so that is an example of a
-``stream``.
-
-Example:
-
-.. code:: json
-
-    "services": {
-        "calls": [{
-            "config_key": "vnf-db",
-            "request": {
-                "format": "dcae.vnf.meta",
-                "version": "1.0.0"
-                },
-            "response": {
-                "format": "dcae.vnf.kpi",
-                "version": "1.0.0"
-                }
-        }],
-    ...
-    }
-
-This describes that ``yourapp.component.kpi_anomaly`` will make HTTP
-calls to a downstream component that accepts requests of data format
-``dcae.vnf.meta`` version ``1.0.0`` and is expecting the response to be
-``dcae.vnf.kpi`` version ``1.0.0``.

+
+What is Component Specification?
+================================
+
+This page will discuss categories defined in :any:`component specification schema <dcae-component-schema>` and their usage.
+
+
+Meta Schema Definition
+----------------------
+
+
+The “Meta Schema” implementation defines how component specification
+JSON schemas can be written to define user input. It is itself a JSON
+schema (thus it is a “meta schema”). It requires the name of the
+component entry, component type (either ‘cdap’ or ‘docker’) and a
+description under “self” object. The meta schema version must be
+specified as the value of the “version” key. Then the input schema
+itself is described.
+
+There are four types of schema descriptions objects - jsonschema for
+inline standard JSON Schema definitions of JSON inputs, delimitedschema
+for delimited data input using a JSON description defined by AT&T,
+unstructured for unstructured text, and reference that allows a pointer
+to another artifact for a schema. The reference allows for XML and Protocol Buffer schema,
+but can be used as a pointer to JSON, Delimited Format, and Unstructured
+schemas as well.
+
+.. _metadata:
+
+Component Metadata
+------------------
+
+Metadata refers to the properties found under the ``self`` JSON. This
+group of properties is used to uniquely identify this component
+specification and identify the component that this specification is used
+to capture.
+
+Example:
+
+::
+
+    "self": {
+        "version": "1.0.0",
+        "name": "yourapp.component.kpi_anomaly",
+        "description": "Classifies VNF KPI data as anomalous",

+.. _interfaces:
+
+Interfaces
+----------
+
+Interfaces are the JSON objects found under the ``streams`` key and the
+``services`` key. These are used to describe the interfaces that the
+component uses and the interfaces that the component provides. The
+description of each interface includes the associated :any:`data
+format <data-formats>`.
+
+Streams
+~~~~~~~
+
+-  The ``streams`` JSON is for specifying data produced for consumption
+   by other components, and the streams expected to subscribe to that is
+   produced by other components. These are “fire and forget” type
+   interfaces where the publisher of a stream does not expect or parse a
+   response from the subscriber.
+-  The term ``stream`` here is abstract and neither refers to “CDAP
+   streams” or “DMaaP feeds”. While a stream is very likely a DMaaP
+   feed, it could be a direct stream of data being routed via HTTP too.
+   It abstractly refers to a sequence of data leaving a publisher.
+-  Streams have anonymous publish/subscribe semantics, which decouples
+   the production of information from its consumption.  Like the component 
+   specification, the data format specification is represented/validated against this
+   `Data Format json schema <https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=dcaegen2/platform/cli.git;a=blob;f=component-json-schemas/data-format/dcae-cli-v1/data-format-schema.json;h=be1568291300305c7adb9a8d244d39f9e6ddadbd;hb=HEAD>`__
+-  In general, components are not aware of who they are communicating
+   with.
+-  Instead, components that are interested in data, subscribe to the
+   relevant stream; components that generate data publish to the
+   relevant stream.
+-  There can be multiple publishers and subscribers to a stream. Streams
+   are intended for unidirectional, streaming communication.
+
+Streams interfaces that implement an HTTP endpoint must support POST.
+
+Streams are split into:

+            "type": "http"
+        }],
+    ...
+    }

+Message router
+''''''''''''''
+
+Message router subscribers are http clients rather than http services
+and performs a http a ``GET`` call. Thus, message router subscribers
+description is structured like message router publishers and requires
+``config_key``:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+    "streams": {
+        "subscribes": [{
+            "format": "dcae.some-format",

+    }
+
+
+.. _data-router:
+
+Data router
+'''''''''''
+
+Data router subscribers are http or https services that handle ``PUT``
+requests from data router. Developers must provide the ``route`` or url
+path/endpoint that is expected to handle data router requests. This will
+be used to construct the delivery url needed to register the subscriber
+to the provisioned feed. Developers must also provide a ``config_key``
+because there is dynamic configuration information associated with the
+feed that the application will need e.g. username and password. See the
+page on :any:`DMaaP connection objects <dmaap-data-router>` for more details on
+the configuration information.
+
+Example (not tied to the larger example):

+Services
+~~~~~~~~
+
+-  The publish / subscribe model is a very flexible communication
+   paradigm, but its many-to-many one-way transport is not appropriate
+   for RPC request / reply interactions, which are often required in a
+   distributed system.
+-  Request / reply is done via a Service, which is defined by a pair of
+   messages: one for the request and one for the reply.
+
+Services are split into:

+
+Calls
+^^^^^
+
+The JSON ``services/calls`` is for specifying that the component relies
+on an HTTP(S) service—the component sends that service an HTTP request,
+and that service responds with an HTTP reply. An example of this is how
+string matching (SM) depends on the AAI Broker. SM performs a
+synchronous REST call to the AAI broker, providing it the VMNAME of the
+VNF, and the AAI Broker responds with additional details about the VNF.
+This dependency is expressed via ``services/calls``. In contrast, the
+output of string matching (the alerts it computes) is sent directly to
+policy as a fire-and-forget interface, so that is an example of a
+``stream``.
+
+Example:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+    "services": {
+        "calls": [{
+            "config_key": "vnf-db",
+            "request": {
+                "format": "dcae.vnf.meta",
+                "version": "1.0.0"
+                },
+            "response": {
+                "format": "dcae.vnf.kpi",
+                "version": "1.0.0"
+                }
+        }],
+    ...
+    }
+
+This describes that ``yourapp.component.kpi_anomaly`` will make HTTP
+calls to a downstream component that accepts requests of data format
+``dcae.vnf.meta`` version ``1.0.0`` and is expecting the response to be
+``dcae.vnf.kpi`` version ``1.0.0``.

+            "response": {
+                "format": "yourapp.format.integerClassification",
+                "version": "1.0.0"
+                }
+        }]
+    },
+
+This describes that ``yourapp.component.kpi_anomaly`` provides a service
+interface and it is exposed on the ``/score-vnf`` HTTP endpoint. The
+endpoint accepts requests that have the data format ``dcae.vnf.meta``
+version ``1.0.0`` and gives back a response of
+``yourapp.format.integerClassification`` version ``1.0.0``.

+Health check
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Component developers are required to provide a way for the platform to
+periodically check the health of their running components. The
+details of the definition used by your component is to be provided
+through the :any:`Docker auxiliary specification <docker-auxiliary-details>`.
+
+The information contained in the auxilary_docker field is the Docker component specification schema. Some properties of the docker component specification include -
+
+healthcheck : Defines the health check that Consul should perform for this component
+
+log_info : Component specific details for logging, includes the path in the container where logs are written that can also be used for logstash/kibana style reporting.
+
+ports : Port mapping to be used for Docker containers. Each entry is of the format <container port>:<host port>.
+
+tls_info : Component information for use of tls certificates, where they will be available, whether or not to use them
+
+policy : Information for Policy configuration and reconfiguration
+
+databases: Information about databases the application should connect to
+
+volumes: Contains information on volume mapping for the docker containers
