Container Images

Container images or also Cloud Development Environments (CDEs) are used to define the configuration of a development environment. Typically, CDEs define all the software dependencies necessary for building the intended application once implemented. Users create workspaces with such an image as "blueprint", and begin contributing code to the project within this context.

CDE images are imported from a registry as part of the resources available to users on the platform. Registries are either public or private. For private registries, you need to provide credentials to authenticate properly before importing the image. Public registries, by definition, do not need credentials.

View CDE Images

The panel displays the available CDE images in the project. You may search for one or filter those used in workspaces.

A CDE image is defined by the following characteristics:

  • Basic information: Name, scope of use (platform, organization or project), URL and tag.
  • Class Level: This option defines the visibility for the CDE image based on the user's permissions.
  • Asset Information: This option allows for providing a description of the CDE.

By clicking on a CDE image, you can see a list of the CDE's versions followed by basic details such as imported date, status.
