Overview
Guidance on set up for state management components
Dapr integrates with existing databases to provide apps with state management capabilities for CRUD operations, transactions and more. It also supports the configuration of multiple, named, state store components per application.
State stores are extensible and can be found in the components-contrib repo.
A state store in Dapr is described using a Component
file:
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
name: statestore
namespace: default
spec:
type: state.<DATABASE>
version: v1
metadata:
- name: <KEY>
value: <VALUE>
- name: <KEY>
value: <VALUE>
...
The type of database is determined by the type
field, and things like connection strings and other metadata are put in the .metadata
section. Even though metadata values can contain secrets in plain text, it is recommended you use a secret store.
