Manage custom resources in multiple deployments

How to create multiple custom resources in staging environment and when they are ready for production create them in production environment?

We recommend to use Aidbox Project for this.

Example:

Create custom resources with zen

aidbox-project/resources/custom1.edn:

{ns resources.custom1
 import #{zenbox}

 Custom1
 {:zen/tags #{zen/schema zenbox/persistent}
  :resourceType "Custom1"
  :confirms #{zenbox/Resource}
  :type zen/map
  :keys {:field1 {:type zen/string}}}}

aidbox-project/resources/custom2.edn:

{ns resources.custom2
 import #{zenbox}

 Custom2
 {:zen/tags #{zen/schema zenbox/persistent}
  :resourceType "Custom2"
  :confirms #{zenbox/Resource}
  :type zen/map
  :keys {:field1 {:type zen/string}}}}

Create entrypoint for staging environment:

aidbox-project/staging.edn:

{ns staging
 import #{resources.custom1
          resources.custom2}}

Create entrypoint for production environment

aidbox-project/prod.edn:

{ns prod
 import #{resources.custom1}}

Specify Aidbox Project and entrypoint for staging environment:

AIDBOX_ZEN_PATHS:="path:dir:/path/to/aidbox-project"
AIDBOX_ZEN_ENTRYPOINT=staging

Specify Aidbox Project and entrypoint for production environment:

AIDBOX_ZEN_PATHS:="path:dir:/path/to/aidbox-project"
AIDBOX_ZEN_ENTRYPOINT=staging

Now on production you will have Custom1 resource and on staging Custom1 and Custom2 resources.
