Ship and Entitlements
A Replicated Ship application can deliver customer-specific license fields (entitlements), that can be read and consumed in an application.
Note that this requires Ship v0.40.0 or later.
Defining License Fields
This is currently available via CLI/API (The UI is estimated for release Q3 2019) See https://github.com/replicatedhq/replicated/tree/entitlements/client/entitlements for a detailed walkthrough.
Setting Customer Values
Once you’ve defined your entitlements fields, you can set per-customer values on the Customers page in vendor.replicated.com.
Retrieving Values at Runtime
The final step to delivering license fields to an on-prem instance of a Ship application is to run the replicated/titled container and provide it a template function to initialize the values.
Defining the following Ship asset (copy & paste) will render a Kubernetes YAML file that will make the titled service availabe to the cluster:
