Packaging the Edge Application Configuration

If your application uses configuration files they must be packaged as a zip file to be deployed. Once deployed to an Edge device, these files will be available to your application in the /config mount within your app.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the folder containing your configuration files and zip them.
    Note: Zip only the actual files, not the folder that contains the files.
  2. The following example assumes you have your config files in a folder named my-config-folder and all of the files end with a .json extension:
    $ cd my-config-folder
$ zip -X -r config.zip *.json

    You now have a packaged application configuration that you can deploy. You do not have to sign configuration files.
