Building an Application Component

Before deploying ServiceStage, you need to build the software package into an image or build the source code into a software package. Therefore, after you set the application source when creating an application component, ServiceStage generates a build job for the application component.

Components whose runtime system is Docker cannot be built.

Viewing Application Component Building

Log in to ServiceStage, choose Application Management > Application List, and click an application to go to the Overview page.
On the Component List tab, click a component to go to the Overview page.
Click the Build Job tab to view the status of the application component build job.
