Automating the creation of a new environment on the platform can be done in several ways, such as using the platform CLI<\/a>, making direct API<\/a> requests, or specifying parameters in a JPS manifest. While this may seem like a straightforward task, it can involve numerous parameters to precisely define the environment’s topology.<\/p>\n Below, we outline the descriptions for all of these settings along with examples of their usage via the CLI. They are categorized into three main sections corresponding to the arrays of the ~\/jelastic\/environment\/control\/createenvironment method. These sections include two common ones and a listing of specialized parameters for creating Docker containers.<\/p>\n The parameters below should be specified within the env<\/strong> array, either in a CLI command or a JSON file. They define the most common environment configurations, such as programming language, name and others:<\/p>\n Within the nodes section, finer adjustments can be made to define the parameters of the servers included, such as their type, quantity, number of allocated reserved\/dynamic cloudlets, and more.<\/p>\n The docker subsection is dedicated to specifying specialized Docker container parameters required for deployment.<\/p>\n\n
