Parameter reference

In the components construct, you refer to the parameters defined in the parameters section by using $parameters.<parametername> notation. If <parametername> itself contains parameters (when type is object), then you must use the notation $parameters.<parametername>.<sub-parametername>, and so on.

Example:

parameters:

  -

    name: name

    label: Name

    type: string

    required: true

     -

      name: vip

      label: Virtual IP and Port

      type: object

      required: true

      parameters:

        -

          name: ip

          label: Virtual IP

          description: The Virtual IP Address

          type: ipaddress

          required: true

            -

              name: port

              label: The Virtual Port

              description: The TCP port for the Virtual IP

              type: tcp-port

              default: 80

components:

  -

    name: my-lbvserver-comp

    type: ns::lbvserver

    properties:

       name: $parameters.name

       servicetype: HTTP

       ipv46: $parameters.vip.ip

       port: $parameters.vip.port
