Dekorate is a collection of Java compile-time generators and decorators for Kubernetes/OpenShift manifests.
It makes generating Kubernetes manifests as easy as adding a dependency to the classpath and customizing as simple as setting an annotation or application property.
Stop wasting time editing xml, json and yml and customize the kubernetes manifests as you configure your java application.
Rebranding Notice
This project was originally called ap4k
which stood for Annotation Processors for Kubernetes
. As the project now supports decorating
of kubernetes manifests without the use of annotations, the name ap4k
no longer describes the project in the best possible way. So, the project has been renamed to dekorate
.

Rationale
There are tons of tools out there for scaffolding / generating kubernetes manifests. Sooner or later these manifests will require customization. Handcrafting is not an appealing option. Using external tools, is often too generic. Using build tool extensions and adding configuration via xml, groovy etc is a step forward, but still not optimal.
Annotation processing has quite a few advantages over external tools or build tool extensions:
- Configuration is validated by the compiler.
- Leverages tools like the IDE for writing type safe config (checking, completion etc).
- Works with all build tools.
- Can "react" to annotations provided by the framework.
Hello World
This section provides examples on how to get started based on the framework you are using.
NOTE: All examples in README using the version that corresponds to the target branch. On github master that is the latest 2.x release.

Usage
To start using this project you just need to add one of the provided dependencies to your project. For known frameworks like spring boot, quarkus, or thorntail that's enough. For generic java projects, we also need to add an annotation that expresses our intent to enable dekorate
.
This annotation can be either @Dekorate or a more specialized one, which also gives us access to more specific configuration options. Further configuration is feasible using:
- Java annotations
- Configuration properties (application.properties)
- Both
A complete reference of the supported properties can be found in the configuration options guide.
Kubernetes
@KubernetesApplication is a more specialized form of @Dekorate. It can be added to your project like:
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your application code goes here.
}
}
When the project gets compiled, the annotation will trigger the generation of a Deployment
in both json and yml that will end up under 'target/classes/META-INF/dekorate'.
The annotation comes with a lot of parameters, which can be used in order to customize the Deployment
and/or trigger the generations of addition resources, like Service
and Ingress
.
Adding the kubernetes annotation processor to the classpath
This module can be added to the project using:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>kubernetes-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
Name and Version
So where did the generated Deployment
gets its name, docker image etc from?
Everything can be customized via annotation parameters and system properties. On top of that, lightweight integration with build tools is provided in order to reduce duplication.
Lightweight build tool integration
Lightweight integration with build tools, refers to reading information from the build tool config without bringing in the build tool itself into the classpath. The information read from the build tool is limited to:
- name / artifactId
- version
- output file
For example in the case of maven it refers to parsing the pom.xml with DOM in order to fetch the artifactId and version.
Supported build tools:
- maven
- gradle
- sbt
- bazel
For all other build tools, the name and version need to be provided via application.properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.name=my-app
dekorate.kubernetes.version=1.1.0.Final
or the core annotations:
@KubernetesApplication(name = "my-app", version="1.1.0.Final")
public class Main {
}
or
@OpenshiftApplication(name = "my-app", version="1.1.0.Final")
public class Main {
}
and so on...
The information read from the build tool, is added to all resources as labels (name, version). They are also used to name images, containers, deployments, services etc.
For example for a gradle app, with the following gradle.properties
:
name = my-gradle-app
version = 1.0.0
The following deployment will be generated:
apiVersion: "apps/v1"
kind: "Deployment"
metadata:
name: "kubernetes-example"
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app.kubernetes.io/name: "my-gradle-app"
app.kubernetes.io/version: "1.0-SNAPSHOT"
template:
metadata:
labels:
app.kubernetes.io/name: "my-gradle-app"
app.kubernetes.io/version: "1.0-SNAPSHOT"
spec:
containers:
- env:
- name: "KUBERNETES_NAMESPACE"
valueFrom:
fieldRef:
fieldPath: "metadata.namespace"
image: "default/my-gradle-app:1.0-SNAPSHOT"
imagePullPolicy: "IfNotPresent"
name: "my-gradle-app"
The output file name may be used in certain cases, to set the value of JAVA_APP_JAR
an environment variable that points to the build jar.
Adding extra ports and exposing them as services
To add extra ports to the container, you can add one or more @Port
into your @KubernetesApplication:
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.Port;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(ports = @Port(name = "web", containerPort = 8080))
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
This will trigger the addition of a container port to the Deployment
but also will trigger the generation of a Service
resource.
Everything that can be defined using annotations, can also be defined using application.properties
. To add a port using application.properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.ports[0].name=web
dekorate.kubernetes.ports[0].container-port=8080
NOTE: This doesn't need to be done explicitly, if the application framework is detected and support, ports can be extracted from there (see below).
IMPORTANT: When mixing annotations and application.properties
the latter will always take precedence overriding values that defined using annotations. This allows users to define the configuration using annotations and externalize configuration to application.properties
.
REMINDER: A complete reference on all the supported properties can be found in the configuration options guide.
Adding container environment variables
To add extra environment variables to the container, you can add one or more @EnvVar
into your @KubernetesApplication :
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.Env;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(envVars = @Env(name = "key1", value = "var1"))
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
Additional options are provided for adding environment variables from fields, config maps and secrets.
To add environment variables using application.properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.env-vars[0].name=key1
dekorate.kubernetes.env-vars[0].value=value1
Adding environment variables from ConfigMap
To add an environment variable that points to a ConfigMap property, you need to specify the configmap using the configmap
property in the @Env annotation. The configmap key will be specified by the value
property. So, in this case value
has the meaning of value from key
.
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.Env;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(envVars = @Env(name = "key1", configmap="my-config", value = "key1"))
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
To add an environment variable referencing a config map using application.properties
:
dekorate.
.env-vars[0].name=key1
dekorate.kubernetes.env-vars[0].value=key1
dekorate.kubernetes.env-vars[0].config-map=my-config
Adding environment variables from Secrets
To add an environment variable that points to a Secret property, you need to specify the configmap using the secret
property in the @Env annotation. The secret key will be specified by the value
property. So, in this case value
has the meaning of value from key
.
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.Env;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(envVars = @Env(name = "key1", secret="my-secret", value = "key1"))
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
To add an environment variable referencing a secret using application.properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.env-vars[0].name=key1
dekorate.kubernetes.env-vars[0].value=key1
dekorate.kubernetes.env-vars[0].secret=my-config
Working with volumes and mounts
To define volumes and mounts for your application, you can use something like:
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.Mount;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.PersistentVolumeClaimVolume;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(pvcVolumes = @PersistentVolumeClaimVolume(volumeName = "mysql-volume", claimName = "mysql-pvc"),
mounts = @Mount(name = "mysql-volume", path = "/var/lib/mysql")
)
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
To define the same volume and mount via application.properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.pvc-volumes[0].volume-name=mysql-volume
dekorate.kubernetes.pvc-volumes[0].claim-name=mysql-pvc
dekorate.kubernetes.mounts[0].name=mysql-volume
dekorate.kubernetes.mounts[0].path=/var/lib/mysql
Currently, the supported annotations for specifying volumes are:
- @PersistentVolumeClaimVolume
- @SecretVolume
- @ConfigMapVolume
- @AwsElasticBlockStoreVolume
- @AzureDiskVolume
- @AzureFileVolume
Jvm Options
It's common to pass the JVM options in the manifests using the JAVA_OPTS
or JAVA_OPTIONS
environment variable of the application container. This is something complex as it usually difficult to remember all options by heart and thus its error prone. The worst part is that you usually don't realize the mistake until it's TOO late.
Dekorate provides a way to manage those options using the @JvmOptions
annotation, which is included in the options-annotations
module.
import io.dekorate.options.annotation.JvmOptions;
import io.dekorate.options.annotation.GarbageCollector;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication
@JvmOptions(server=true, xmx=1024, preferIpv4Stack=true, gc=GarbageCollector.SerialGC)
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
or via application.properties
:
dekorate.jvm.server=true
dekorate.jvm.xmx=1024
dekorate.jvm.prefer-ipv4-stack=true
dekorate.jvm.gc=GarbageCollector.SerialGC
This module can be added to the project using:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>option-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
Note: The module is included in all starters.
Container Resources
Kubernets allwos setting rules about container resources:
- Request CPU: The amount of CPU the container needs.
- Request Memory: The amount of memory the container needs.
- Limit CPU: The maximum amount of CPU the container will get.
- Limit Memory: The maximum amount of memory the container will get.
More information: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/manage-resources-containers
Dekorate supports these options for both the application container and / or any of the side car containers.
Application Container resources
Using annotations
There are parameters availbe for @KubernetesApplication
, @KnativeApplication
and @OpenshiftApplication
.
Using the @KubernetesApplication
one could set the resources like:
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.ResourceRequirements;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(requestResources=@ResourceRequirements(memory="64Mi", cpu="1m", limitResources=@ResourceRequirements(memory="256Mi", cpu="5m")
public class Main {
}
In the same spirit it workds for @KnativeApplication
and @OpenshiftApplication
.
Using properties
Users that prefer to configure dekorate using property configuration can use the following options:
dekorate.kubernetes.request-resources.cpu=1m
dekorate.kubernetes.request-resources.memory=64Mi
dekorate.kubernetes.limit-resources.cpu=5m
dekorate.kubernetes.limit-resources.memory=256Mi
In a similar manner works for openshift:
dekorate.openshift.request-resources.cpu=1m
dekorate.openshift.request-resources.memory=64Mi
dekorate.openshift.limit-resources.cpu=5m
dekorate.openshift.limit-resources.memory=256Mi
Init Containers
If for any reason the application requires the use of init containers, they can be easily defined using the initContainer
property, as demonstrated below.
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.Container;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(initContainers = @Container(image="foo/bar:latest", command="foo"))
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
or via application.properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.init-containers[0].image=foo/bar:latest
dekorate.kubernetes.init-containers[0].command=foo
The @Container supports the following fields:
- Image
- Image Pull Policy
- Commands
- Arguments
- Environment Variables
- Mounts
- Probes
Sidecars
Similarly, to init containers support for sidecars is also provided using the sidecars
property. For example:
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.Container;
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernetesApplication;
@KubernetesApplication(sidecars = @Container(image="jaegertracing/jaeger-agent",
args="--collector.host-port=jaeger-collector.jaeger-infra.svc:14267"))
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
or via application.properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.sidecars[0].image=jaegertracing/jaeger-agent
dekorate.kuberentes.args=--collector.host-port=jaeger-collector.jaeger-infra.svc:14267
As in the case of init containers the @Container supports the following fields:
- Image
- Image Pull Policy
- Commands
- Arguments
- Environment Variables
- Mounts
- Probes
Adding the kubernetes annotation processor to the classpath
This module can be added to the project using:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>kubernetes-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
OpenShift
@OpenshiftApplication works exactly like @KubernetesApplication , but will generate resources in a file name openshift.yml
/ openshift.json
instead. Also instead of creating a Deployment
it will create a DeploymentConfig
.
NOTE: A project can use both @KubernetesApplication and @OpenshiftApplication. If both the kubernetes and OpenShift annotation processors are present both kubernetes and OpenShift resources will be generated.
Adding the OpenShift annotation processor to the classpath
This module can be added to the project using:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>openshift-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
Integrating with S2i
Out of the box resources for s2i will be generated.
- ImageStream
- builder
- target
- BuildConfig
Here's an example:
import io.dekorate.openshift.annotation.OpenshiftApplication;
@OpenshiftApplication(name = "doc-example")
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
The same can be expressed via application.properties
:
dekorate.openshift.name=doc-example
IMPORTANT: All examples of application.properties
demonstrated in the Kubernetes section can be applied here, by replacing the prefix dekorate.kubernetes
with dekorate.openshift
.
The generated BuildConfig
will be a binary config. The actual build can be triggered from the command line with something like:
oc start-build doc-example --from-dir=./target --follow
NOTE: In the example above we explicitly set a name for our application, and we referenced that name from the cli. If the name was implicitly created the user would have to figure the name out before triggering the build. This could be done either by oc get bc
or by knowing the conventions used to read names from build tool config (e.g. if maven then name the artifactId).

Tekton
Dekorate supports generating tekton
pipelines. Since Dekorate knows, how your project is build, packaged into containers and deployed, converting that knowledge into a pipeline comes natural.
When the tekton
module is added to the project:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>tekton-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
Two sets of resources will be generated, each representing a different configuration style the use user can choose from:
- Pipeline based
- tekton-pipeline.yml
- tekton-pipeline-run.yml
- tekton-pipeline.json
- tekton-pipeline-run.json
- Task based
- tekton-task.yml
- tekton-task-run.yml
- tekton-task.json
- tekton-task-run.json
Pipeline
This set of resources contains:
- Pipeline
- PipelineResource (git, output image)
- PipelineRun
- Task (build, package and push, deploy)
- RBAC resources
These are the building blocks of a Tekton pipeline that grabs your project from scm, builds and containerizes the project (in cluster) and finally deploys it.
Task
This set of resources provides the some functionality as above, but everything is collapsed under a single task (for usability reasons), In detail it contains:
- PipelineResource (git, output image)
- Task
- TaskRun
- RBAC resources
Pipeline vs Task
If unsure which style to pickup, note that the task
style has less configuration requirements and thus easier to begin with. The pipeline
style is easier to slice and dice, once your are more comfortable with tekton
.
Regardless of the choice, Dekorate provides a rich set of configuration options to make using tekton
as easy as it gets.
Tekton Configuration
Git Resource
The generated tasks and pipelines, assume the project is under version control and more specifically git. So, in order to run
the pipeline or the task
a PiepelineResource
of type git
is required. If the project is added to git, the resource will be generated for you. If for any reason the use of an external resource is preferred then it needs to be configured, like:
dekorate.tekton.external-git-pipeline-resource=<<the name of the resource goes here>>
Builder Image
Both the pipeline and the task based resources include steps that perform a build of the project. Dekorate, tries to identify a suitable builder image for the project. Selection is based on the build tool, jdk version, jdk flavor and build tool version (in that order). At the moment only maven and gradle are supported.
You can customize the build task by specifying:
- custom builder image:
dekorate.tekton.builder-image
- custom build command:
dekorate.tekton.builder-command
- custom build arguments:
dekorate.tekton.builder-arguments
Configuring a Workspace PVC
One of the main differences between the two styles of configuration, is that Pipelines require a PersistentVolumeClaim
in order to share the workspace between Tasks. On the contrary when all steps are part of single bit fat Task (which is baked by a Pod) and EmptyDir
volume will suffice.
Out of the box, for the pipeline style resources a PersistentVolumeClaim
named after the application will be generated and used.
The generated pvc can be customized using the following properties:
- dekorate.tekton.source-workspace-size (defaults to
1Gi
) - dekorate.tekton.source-workspace-storage-class (defaults to
standard
)
The option to provide an existing pvc (by name) instead of generating one is also provided, using dekorate.tekton.source-workspace-claim
.
Configuring the Docker registry for Tekton
The generated Pipeline / Task includes steps for building a container image and pushing it to a registry.
The registry can be configured using dekorate.docker.registry
as is done for the rest of the resources.
For the push to succeed credentials for the registry are required. The user is able to:
- Provide own Secret with registry credentials
- Provide username and password
- Upload local
.docker/config.json
To provide an existing secret for the job (e.g. my-secret
):
dekorate.tekton.image-builder-secert=my-secert
To provide username and password:
dekorate.tekton.registry-usernmae=myusername
dekorate.tekton.registry-password=mypassword
If none of the above is provided and a .docker/config.json
exists, it can be used if explicitly requested:
dekorate.tekton.use-local-docker-config-json=true
Knative
Dekorate also supports generating manifests for knative
. To make use of this feature you need to add:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>knative-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
This module provides the @KnativeApplication works exactly like @KubernetesApplication , but will generate resources in a file name knative.yml
/ knative.json
instead. Also instead of creating a Deployment
it will create a knative serving Service
.
Cluster local services
Knative exposes
services out of the box. You can use the @KnativeApplication(expose=false)
or the property dekorate.knative.expose
set to false, in order to mark a service as cluster local.
Autoscaling
Dekorate provides access to both revision and global autoscaling configuration (see Knative Autoscaling.
Global autoscaling configuration is supported via configmaps (KnativeServing
is not supported yet).
Class
To set the autoscaler class for the target revision:
dekorate.knative.revision-auto-scaling.autoscaler-class=hpa
The allowed values are:
hpa
: Horizontal Pod Autoscalerkpa
: Knative Pod Autoscaler (default)
In the same spirit the global autoscaler class can be set using:
dekorate.knative.global-auto-scaling.autoscaler-class=hpa
Metric
To select the autoscaling metric:
dekorate.knative.revision-auto-scaling.metric=rps
The allowed values are:
concurrency
: Concurrency (default)rps
: Requests per secondcpu
: CPU (requireshpa
revision autoscaler class).
Target
Metric specifies the metric kind. To sepcify the target value the autoscaler should aim to maintain, the target
can be used:
dekorate.knative.revision-auto-scaling.target=100
There is no option to set a generic global target. Instead specific keys per metric kind are provided. See below:
Requests per second
To set the requests per second:
dekorate.knative.global-auto-scaling.requests-per-second=100
Target utilization
To set the target utilization:
dekorate.knative.global-auto-scaling.target-utilization-percentage=100
Framework integration
Framework integration modules are provided that we are able to detect framework annotations and adapt to the framework (e.g. expose ports).
The frameworks supported so far:
- Spring Boot
- Quarkus
- Thorntail
Spring Boot
With spring boot, we suggest you start with one of the provided starters:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>kubernetes-spring-starter</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
Or if you are on OpenShift:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>openshfit-spring-starter</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
Automatic configuration
For Spring Boot application, dekorate will automatically detect known annotation and will align generated manifests accordingly.
Exposing servies
Dekorate tunes the generated manifest based on the presence of web annotations in the project:
- Automatic service expose
- Application path detection
When known web annotations are available in the project, dekorate will automatically detect and expose the http port as a Service. That service will also be expose as an Ingress
or Route
(in case of Openshift) if the expose
option is set to true.
Kubernetes
@KubernetesApplication(expose=true)
An alternative way of configuration is via application properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.expose=true
Openshift
@OpenshiftApplication(expose=true)
An alternative way of configuration is via application properties
:
dekorate.openshift.expose=true
There are cases where the Ingress
or Route
host needs to be customized. This is done using the host
parametes either via annotation or property configuration.
Kubernetes
@KubernetesApplication(expose=true, host="foo.bar.com")
An alternative way of configuration is via application properties
:
dekorate.kubernetes.expose=true
dekorate.kubernetes.host=foo.bar.com
Openshift
@OpenshiftApplication(expose=true, host="foo.bar.com")
An alternative way of configuration is via application properties
:
dekorate.openshift.expose=true
dekorate.openshift.host=foo.bar.com
RequestMapping
When one RequestMapping
annotation is added on a Controller
or multiple RequestMapping
that share a common path are added on multiple Controller
classes, dekorate will detect the shortest common path and configure it so that its available on the expose Ingress
or Route
.
Annotation less configuration
It is possible to completely bypass annotations by utilizing already-existing, framework-specific metadata. This mode is currently only supported for Spring Boot applications (i.e. at least one project class is annotated with @SpringBootApplication
).
So, for Spring Boot applications, all you need to do is add one of the starters (io.dekorate:kubernetes-spring-starter
or io.dekorate:openshift-spring-starter
) to the classpath. No need to specify an additional annotation. This provides the fastest way to get started using dekorate with Spring Boot.
To customize the generated manifests you can add dekorate
properties to your application.yml
or application.properties
descriptors, or even use annotations along with application.yml
/ application.properties
though if you define dekorate
properties then the annotation configuration will be replaced by the one specified using properties.
Dekorate looks for supported configuration as follows in increasing order of priority, meaning any configuration found in an application
descriptor will override any existing annotation-specified configuration:
- Annotations
application.properties
application.yaml
application.yml
application-kubernetes.properties
application-kubernetes.yaml
application-kubernetes.yml
It's important to repeat that the override that occurs by fully replacing any lower-priority configuration and not via any kind of merge between the existing and higher-priority values. This means that if you choose to override the annotation-specified configuration, you need to repeat all the configuration you want in the @Env annotation-less configuration.
Here's the full list of supported configuration options. Special attention should be paid to the path of these properties. The properties' path match the annotation properties and not what would end up in the manifest, meaning the annotation-less configuration matches the model defined by the annotations. More precisely, what is being configured using properties is the same model as what is configured using annotations. While there is some overlap between how the annotations are configured and the resulting manifest, the properties (or YAML file) still need to provide values for the annotation fields, hence why they need to match how the annotations are configured. Always refer to the configuration options guide if in doubt.
Generated resources when not using annotations
When no annotations are used, the kind of resources to be generated is determined by the dekorate
artifacts found in the classpath.

do transitively add kubernetes-annotations
and openshift-annotations
respectively.
Quarkus
quarkus provides rich set of extensions including one for kubernetes. The kubernetes extension uses internally dekorate for generating and customizing manifests.
The extension can be added to any quarkus project:
mvn quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions="io.quarkus:quarkus-kubernetes"
After the project compilation the generated manifests will be available under: target/kubernetes/
.
At the moment this extension will handle ports, health checks etc, with zero configuration from the user side.
It's important to note, that by design this extension will NOT use the dekorate annotations for customizing the generated manifests.
For more information please check: the extension docs.
Thorntail
With Thorntail, it is recommended to add a dependency on one of the provided starters:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>kubernetes-thorntail-starter</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
Or, if you use OpenShift:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>openshfit-thorntail-starter</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
Then, you can use the annotations described above, such @KubernetesApplication
, @OpenShiftApplication
, etc.
Note that the Thorntail annotation processor reads the thorntail.http.port
configuration from the usual project-defaults.yml
. It doesn't read any other project-*.yml
profiles.
Experimental features
Apart from the core feature, which is resource generation, there are a couple of experimental features that do add to the developer experience.
These features have to do with things like building, deploying and testing.
Building and Deploying?
Dekorate does not generate Docker files, neither it provides internal support for performing docker or s2i builds. It does however allow the user to hook external tools (e.g. the docker
or oc
) to trigger container image builds after the end of compilation.
So, at the moment as an experimental feature the following hooks are provided:
- docker build hook (requires docker binary, triggered with
-Ddekorate.build=true
) - docker push hook (requires docker binary, triggered with
-Ddekorate.push=true
) - OpenShift s2i build hook (requires oc binary, triggered with
-Ddekorate.deploy=true
)
Docker build hook
This hook will just trigger a docker build, using an existing Dockerfile at the root of the project. It will not generate or customize the docker build in any way.
To enable the docker build hook you need:
- a
Dockerfile
in the project/module root - the
docker
binary configured to point the docker daemon of your kubernetes environment.
To trigger the hook, you need to pass -Ddekorate.build=true
as an argument to the build, for example:
mvn clean install -Ddekorate.build=true
or if you are using gradle:
gradle build -Ddekorate.build=true
When push is enabled, the registry can be specified as part of the annotation, or via system properties. Here's an example via annotation configuration:
@EnableDockerBuild(registry="quay.io")
public class Main {
}
Here's how it can be done via build properties (system properties):
mvn clean install -Ddekorate.docker.registry=quay.io -Ddekorate.push=true
Note: Dekorate will NOT push images on its own. It will delegate to the docker
binary. So the user needs to make sure beforehand they are logged in and have taken all necessary actions for a docker push
to work.
S2i build hook
This hook will just trigger an s2i binary build, that will pass the output folder as an input to the build
To enable the docker build hook you need:
- the
openshift-annotations
module (already included in all OpenShift starter modules) - the
oc
binary configured to point the docker daemon of your kubernetes environment.
Finally, to trigger the hook, you need to pass -Ddekorate.build=true
as an argument to the build, for example:
mvn clean install -Ddekorate.build=true
or if you are using gradle:
gradle build -Ddekorate.build=true
Jib build hook
This hook will just trigger a jib build in order to perform a container build.
In order to use it, one needs to add the jib-annotations
dependency.
<dependencies>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>jib-annotations</artifactId>
</dependencies>
Without the need of any additional configuration, one trigger the hook by passing -Ddekorate.build=true
as an argument to the build, for example:
mvn clean install -Ddekorate.build=true
or if you are using gradle:
gradle build -Ddekorate.build=true
Jib modes
At the moment Jib allows you to create and push images in two different ways:
- using the docker daemon
- dockerless
At the moment performing a build through the docker daemon is slightly safer, and thus is used as a default option. You can easily switch to dockerless mode, by setting the @JibBuild(dockerBuild=false)
or if using properties configuration dekorate.jib.docker-build=false
.
In case of the dockerless mode, an openjdk-8
image is going to be used as a base image. The image can be changed through the from
property on the @JibBuild annotation or dekorate.jib.from
when using property configuration.

Junit5 extensions
Dekorate provides two junit5 extensions for:
- Kubernetes
- OpenShift
These extensions are dekorate
aware and can read generated resources and configuration, in order to manage end to end
tests for the annotated applications.
Features
- Environment conditions
- Container builds
- Apply generated manifests to test environment
- Inject test with:
- client
- application pod
Kubernetes extension for Junit5
The kubernetes extension can be used by adding the following dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>kubernetes-junit</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
This dependency gives access to @KubernetesIntegrationTest which is what enables the extension for your tests.
By adding the annotation to your test class the following things will happen:
- The extension will check if a kubernetes cluster is available (if not tests will be skipped).
- If
@EnableDockerBuild
is present in the project, a docker build will be triggered. - All generated manifests will be applied.
- Will wait until applied resources are ready.
- Dependencies will be injected (e.g. KubernetesClient, Pod etc)
- Test will run
- Applied resources will be removed.
Dependency injection
Supported items for injection:
- KubernetesClient
- Pod (the application pod)
- KubernetesList (the list with all generated resources)
To inject one of this you need a field in the code annotated with @Inject.
For example:
@Inject
KubernetesClient client;
When injecting a Pod, it's likely we need to specify the pod name. Since the pod name is not known in advance, we can use the deployment name instead. If the deployment is named hello-world
then you can do something like:
@Inject
@Named("hello-world")
Pod pod;
Note: It is highly recommended to also add maven-failsafe-plugin
configuration so that integration tests only run in the integration-test
phase. This is important since in the test
phase the application is not packaged. Here's an example of how it you can configure the project:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${version.maven-failsafe-plugin}</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>integration-test</goal>
<goal>verify</goal>
</goals>
<phase>integration-test</phase>
<configuration>
<includes>
<include>**/*IT.class</include>
</includes>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>

OpenShift extension for JUnit5
Similarly, to using the kubernetes junit extension you can use the extension for OpenShift, by adding @OpenshiftIntegrationTest. To use that you need to add:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>openshift-junit</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</dependency>
By adding the annotation to your test class the following things will happen:
- The extension will check if a kubernetes cluster is available (if not tests will be skipped).
- A docker build will be triggered.
- All generated manifests will be applied.
- Will wait until applied resources are ready.
- Dependencies will be injected (e.g. KubernetesClient, Pod etc)
- Test will run
- Applied resources will be removed.

Configuration externalization
It is often desired to externalize configuration in configuration files, instead of hard coding things inside annotations.
Dekorate provides the ability to externalize configuration to configuration files (properties or yml). This can be done to either override the configuration values provided by annotations, or to use dekorate without annotations.
For supported frameworks, this is done out of the box, as long as the corresponding framework jar is present. The frameworks supporting this feature are:
- spring boot
- thorntail
For these frameworks, the use of annotations is optional, as everything may be configured via configuration files. Each annotation may be expressed using properties or yaml using the following steps.
- Each annotation property is expressed using a key/value pair.
- All keys start with the
dekorate.<annotation kind>.
prefix, whereannotation kind
is the annotation class name in lowercase, stripped of theApplication
suffix. - The remaining part of key is the annotation property name.
- For nesting properties the key is also nested following the previous rule.
For all other frameworks or generic java application this can be done with the use of the @Dekorate
annotation. The presence of this annotation will trigger the dekorate processes. Dekorate will then look for application.properites
or application.yml
resources. If present, they will be loaded. If not the default configuration will be used.
Examples:
The following annotation configuration:
@KubernetesApplication(labels=@Label(key="foo", value="bar"))
public class Main {
}
Can be expressed using properties:
dekorate.kubernetes.labels[0].key=foo
dekorate.kubernetes.labels[0].value=bar
or using yaml:
dekorate:
kubernetes:
labels:
- key: foo
value: bar
In the examples above, dekorate
is the prefix that we use to namespace
the dekorate configuration. kubernetes
defines the annotation kind (its @KubernetesApplication
in lower case and stripped of the Application
suffix). labels
, key
and value
are the property names and since the Label
is nested under @KubernetesApplication
so are the properties.
The exact same example for OpenShift (where @OpenshiftApplication
is used instead) would be:
@OpenshiftApplication(labels=@Label(key="foo", value="bar"))
public class Main {
}
Can be expressed using properties:
dekorate.openshift.labels[0].key=foo
dekorate.openshift.labels[0].value=bar
or using yaml:
dekorate:
openshift:
labels:
- key: foo
value: bar
Spring Boot
For spring boot, dekorate will look for configuration under:
- application.properties
- application.yml
- application.yaml
Also, it will look for the same files under the kubernetes profile:
- application-kubernetes.properties
- application-kubernetes.yml
- application-kubernetes.yaml
Vert.x & generic Java
For generic java, if the @Dekorate annotation is present, then dekorate will look for confiugration under:
- application.properties
- application.yml
These files can be overridden using the configFiles
property on the @Dekorate
annotation.
For example:
A generic java application annotated with @Dekorate
:
import io.dekorate.annotation.Dekorate;
@Dekorate
public class Main {
//do stuff
}
During compilation kubernetes, OpenShift or both resources will be generated (depending on what dekorate jars are present in the classpath). These resources can be customized using properties:
dekorate.openshift.labels[0].key=foo
dekorate.openshift.labels[0].value=bar
or using yaml:
dekorate:
openshift:
labels:
- key: foo
value: bar

Pojo to CRD
Dekorate allows the generation of Kubernetes CrdDefinition resources from annotated POJOs.
Pojos annotated with the @Crd
annotation will trigger the generation of the CRD for the POJO. The main CRD attributes will be derived from the POJO class (e.g. the openapi schema) and the rest will be specified using the annotation parameters.
The generated CRD will be added to the list of generated resources.
For example a CrdDefinition for an imaginary Github bot, could be generated from a POJO like:
import io.dekorate.crd.annotation.Crd
@Crd(group="my.group", version="v1beta1")
public class GithubBot {
String token;
String organization;
List<String> repositories;
String warnMessage;
long warnDays;
String closeMessage;
long closeDays;
}
Out of the box the generated CRD will be considered Namespaced
. To change that users can use the scope
parameter on the annotation. Also the plural and shortNames will be automatically calculated. Of course they can be overriden using plural
and shortName
respectively.
Required fields
The openapi schema for each version, will be automatically generated. To mark fields of the schema as required, you can annotate them with @javax.validation.constraints.NotNull
.
Subresources
Subresources
Dekorate does allow users to specify subresources. Subresources may be configured directly through the Crd
anntotation or may be automatically detected with the use of annotations. The latter is more convinient as the user only need to mark the property that affects the subresource and the paths are calculated automatically. The former is there just to support cases where using annotations everywhere is not option (refering to 3rd party classes).
Scale
Scale annotations
To configure the scale subresources one needs to specify one or more paths for the the following fields:
- spec replicas
- status replicas
- status label selector
These paths may be automatically detected if the corresponding fields are annotated with:
- @SpecReplicas
- @StatusReplicas
- @LabelSelector
For example, if in the previous example we make our bot scalable, it could look like:
import io.dekorate.crd.annotation.Crd
@Crd(group="my.group", version="v1beta1")
public class GithubBot {
GithubBotSpec spec;
}
public class GithubBotSpec {
@SpecReplicas
int replicas;
String token;
String organization;
List<String> repositories;
String warnMessage;
long warnDays;
String closeMessage;
long closeDays;
}
In this example dekorate will detect that the path to spec replicas is .spec.replicas
.
Scale configuration
To specify the scale subresource configration directly via Crd
the scale
property can be used. This property is of type: io.dekorate.crd.annotation.Scale
which allows the configuration of the following fields:
- specReplicasPath
- statusReplicasPath
- labalSelectorPath
The scale subresource will be enabled when the the scalable
paramter in the Crd
annotation is set to true, or when a value for any of the above has been explictly provided:
import io.dekorate.crd.annotation.Crd
@Crd(group="my.group", version="v1beta1", scalable=@Scale(labalSelectorPath=".spec.selector"))
public class WebServer {
WebServerSpec spec;
}
public class WebServerSpec {
int replicas;
LabelSelector selector;
int port;
String rootPath;
List<String> modules;
}
Status
Similar to how scale is configured status also supports a pure annotation style of configration and a more traditional one.
Status annotation
Any field in the custom resource object graph that is marked using @Spec
will be used as the subresource status.
Status configuration
To enable the status
subresource, the user can use the status
parameter on the @Crd
annotation.
import io.dekorate.crd.annotation.Crd
@Crd(group="my.group", version="v1beta1", status=WebServerStatus.class))
public class WebServer {
int port;
String rootPath;
List<String> modules;
}
Additional printer columns
In a manner similar to how subresources are specified users are able to specify additional printer columns via annotations, by adding @PrinterColumn
on the pojo fields. For each annotated fields a new addtional printer column will be added to crd, using the following conventions:
name
as specified by the annotation parametername
or the annotated property in uppercase if noname
is specified.type
the type. Inferred automatically, by converting the annotated property type.path
the JSON path. Detected automatically.description
From the annotated properted javadoc comments by filtering out lines starting with@
(e.g.@param
,@return
and so on).format
as specified by the annotation parameterformat
.
Mutliple version
If multiple POJOs are foundd in the compilation unit, that have the same name and different versions, they will be added as multiple versions of a signle CRD. Currently each version can have:
- its own schema
- its own subresources
- its own addtional list of printer columns
Kubernetes client annotations
Note Recent version of the kubernetes-client
provides their own set of annotations for specifying crd related information. We are currently trying to support both styles, till we eventually fully migrate to kubernetes-client
annotations.
The annotations provided by the client are under the package io.fabric8.kubernetes.model.annotation
:
- @Group
- @Kind
- @Version
- @Plural
- @Singular
These annotations can replace or be combined with the @Crd
annotation. The following example shows how we can define the WebServer
custom resource defintion using the client annotations instead.
import io.fabric8.kubernetes.model.annotation.Version;
import io.fabric8.kubernetes.model.annotation.Group;
import io.fabric8.kubernetes.api.model.Namespaced;
@Group("my.group")
@Version("v1")
public class WebServer implements Namespaced {
int port;
String rootPath;
List<String> modules;
}
In the example above we also see that WebServer
implements Namespaced
which is the client way of specifying that a resource scope.
It's important to remember that for subresources, printer columns, scaling etc, the corresponding dekorate annotations with work even when you use the client annotation set.

Prometheus annotations
The prometheus annotation processor provides annotations for generating prometheus related resources. In particular, it can generate ServiceMonitor which are used by the Prometheus Operator in order to configure prometheus to collect metrics from the target application.
This is done with the use of @EnableServiceMonitor annotation.
Here's an example:
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernentesApplication;
import io.dekorate.prometheus.annotation.EnableServiceMonitor;
@KubernetesApplication
@EnableServiceMonitor(port = "http", path="/prometheus", interval=20)
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
The annotation processor, will automatically configure the required selector and generate the ServiceMonitor. Note: Some framework integration modules may further decorate the ServiceMonitor with framework specific configuration. For example, the Spring Boot module will decorate the monitor with the Spring Boot specific path, which is /actuator/prometheus
.
related examples
Jaeger annotations
The jaeger annotation processor provides annotations for injecting the jaeger-agent into the application pod.
Most of the work is done with the use of the @EnableJaegerAgent annotation.
Using the Jaeger Operator
When the jaeger operator is available, you set the operatorEnabled
property to true
. The annotation processor will automatically set the required annotations to the generated deployment, so that the jaeger operator can inject the jaeger-agent.
Here's an example:
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernentesApplication;
import io.dekorate.jaeger.annotation.EnableJaegerAgent;
@KubernetesApplication
@EnableJaegerAgent(operatorEnabled="true")
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}
Manually injection the agent sidecar
For the cases, where the operator is not present, you can use the @EnableJaegerAgent to manually configure the sidecar.
import io.dekorate.kubernetes.annotation.KubernentesApplication;
import io.dekorate.jaeger.annotation.EnableJaegerAgent;
@KubernetesApplication
@EnableJaegerAgent
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Your code goes here
}
}

ServiceBinding CRD
Service Binding Operator enables the application developers to bind the services that are backed by Kubernetes operators to an application that is deployed in kubernetes without having to perform manual configuration. Dekorate supports generation of ServiceBinding CR. The generation of ServiceBinding CR is triggered by annotating one of your classes with @ServiceBinding
annotation and by adding the below dependency to the project and when the project gets compiled, the annotation will trigger the generation of ServiceBinding CR in both json and yml formats under the target/classes/META-INF/dekorate
. The name of the ServiceBinding CR would be the name of the applicationName + "-binding"
, for example if the application name is sample-app
, the binding name would be sample-app-binding
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>servicebinding-annotations</artifactId>
</dependency>
Here is the simple example of using ServiceBinding annotations in SpringBoot application.
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import io.dekorate.servicebinding.annotation.Service;
import io.dekorate.servicebinding.annotation.ServiceBinding;
import io.dekorate.servicebinding.annotation.BindingPath;
@ServiceBinding(
services = {
@Service(group = "postgresql.dev", name = "demo-database", kind = "Database", version = "v1alpha1", id = "postgresDB") })
@SpringBootApplication
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Main.class, args);
}
}
For someone who wants to configure the ServiceBinding CR using system properties, they can do it in the application.properties. The ServiceBinding CR can be customized either via annotation parameters or via system properties. The parameter values provided via annotations can be overrided by configuring the ServiceBinding CR in application.properties.
dekorate.servicebinding.services[0].name=demo-database
dekorate.servicebinding.services[0].group=postgresql.dev
dekorate.servicebinding.services[0].kind=Database
dekorate.servicebinding.services[0].id=postgresDB
Generated ServiceBinding CR would look something like this:
apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1beta1
kind: ServiceBinding
metadata:
name: servicebinding-binding-example
spec:
application:
group: apps
resource: Deployment
name: servicebinding-example
version: v1
services:
- group: postgresql.dev
kind: Database
name: demo-database
version: v1alpha1
id: postgresDB
detectBindingResources: false
bindAsFiles: false
If the application's bindingPath
needs to configured, @BindingPath
annotation can be used directly under @ServicingBinding
annotation. For example:
@ServiceBinding(
bindingPath = @BindingPath(containerPath="spec.template.spec.containers")
services = {
@Service(group = "postgresql.dev", name = "demo-database", kind = "Database", version = "v1alpha1", id = "postgresDB") }, envVarPrefix = "postgresql")
@SpringBootApplication
Note : ServiceBinding
annotations are already usuable though still highly experimental. The Service Binding operator is still in flux and may change in the near future.
External generator integration
No matter how good a generator/scaffolding tool is, its often desirable to handcraft part of it. Other times it might be desirable to combine different tools together (e.g. to generate the manifests using fmp but customize them via dekorate annotations)
No matter what the reason is, dekorate supports working on existing resources and decorating them based on the provided annotation configuration. This is as simple as letting dekorate know where to read the existing manifests and where to store the generated ones. By adding the @GeneratorOptions.
Integration with Fabric8 Maven Plugin.
The fabric8-maven-plugin can be used to package applications for kubernetes and OpenShift. It also supports generating manifests. A user might choose to build images using fmp, but customize them using dekorate
annotations instead of xml.
An example could be to expose an additional port:
This can be done by configuring dekorate to read the fmp generated manifests from META-INF/fabric8
which is where fmp stores them and save them back there once decoration is finished.
@GeneratorOptions(inputPath = "META-INF/fabric8", outputPath = "META-INF/fabric8")
@KubernetesApplication(port = @Port(name="srv", containerPort=8181)
public class Main {
...
}

Explicit configuration of annotation processors
By default, Dekorate doesn't require any specific configuration of its annotation processors. However, it is possible to manually define the annotation processors if required.
In the maven pom.xml configure the annotation processor path in the maven compiler plugin settings.
The example below configures the Mapstruct, Lombok and Dekorate annotation processors
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${maven-compiler-plugin.version}</version>
<configuration>
<annotationProcessorPaths>
<path>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
<version>${mapstruct.version}</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>${lombok.version}</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>kubernetes-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
</path>
</annotationProcessorPaths>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Using the bom
Dekorate provides a bom, that offers dependency management for dekorate artifacts.
The bom can be imported like:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dekorate</groupId>
<artifactId>dekorate-bom</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.beta8</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
Using with downstream BOMs
In case, that dekorate bom is imported by a downstream project (e.g. snowdrop) and its required to override the bom version, all you need to do is to import the dekorate bom with the version of your choice first.
Versions and Branches
At the moment dekorate is using 3 branches in parallel and two major versions are developed at the same time.
Branches
- master (active development, pull requests should point here)
- 2.0.x (not released yet)
- 1.0.x (bug fixes, only)
- 0.15.x (old branch, former cuting edge branch)
Pull request guidelines
All pull requests should target the master
branch and from there things are backported to where it makes sense.
Release branches
The current release branches are:
- 2.0.x (current)
- 1.0.x (stable, bug fixes only)
- 0.15.x (maintainance mode)
Frequently asked questions
How do I tell dekorate to use a custom image name?
By default the image name used is ${group}/${name}:${version}
as extracted by the project / environment or explicitly configured by the user. If you don't want to tinker those properties then you can:
Using annotations
Add @DockerBuild(image="foo/bar:baz")
to the your main or whatever class you use to configure dekorate. If instead of docker you are using jib or s2i you can use @JibBuild(image="foo/bar:baz")
or @S2iBuild(image="foo/bar:baz")
respectively.
Using annotations
Add the following to your application.properties
dekorate.docker.image=foo/bar:baz
Using annotations
Add the following to your application.yaml
dekorate:
docker:
image: foo/bar:baz
