Packing Your Code

In this tutorial, you’ve learned how to package your code and publish it to an OpenIAP instance for deployment as an agent.

Creating and Publishing a Package to an OpenIAP Instance

  1. Organization : You’ve organized your code and ensured it’s ready for packaging.
  2. Package Configuration : You’ve created a package.json file to specify metadata about your package.
  3. Pack and Publish Package : In order to pack and publish package to OpenFlow instance you need to type in search bar: ’>Pack and publish to openiap intance’ and click enter.

You’ve utilized the packaging tool provided by OpenIAP Assistant to bundle your code and its dependencies into a distributable format.

After creating your package, you’ve successfully published it to an OpenIAP instance for distribution and deployment.

Verification : To verify that the package is available for deployment on the OpenFlow instance follow steps:

  • Open ’OpenFlow’ instance.
  • Navigate to ’Agents’ page.
  • Click on the ’Packages’ button.

"name": "Your_package_name",

Congratulations on mastering the process of packaging and deploying your code as an agent using OpenFlow Agents! In the next tutorial, we’ll explore how to run packages as agents locally.
