Functions

Function	Description
locationSpecToLocationEntity(opts)	A standard way of producing a machine generated Location kind entity for a location.
locationSpecToMetadataName(location)	A standard way of producing a machine generated name for a location.

Interface	Description
CatalogProcessorCache	A cache for storing data during processing. The values stored in the cache are always local to each processor, meaning no processor can see cache values from other processors. The cache instance provided to the CatalogProcessor is also scoped to the entity being processed, meaning that each processor run can't see cache values from processing runs for other entities. Values that are set during a processing run will only be visible in the directly following run. The cache will be overwritten every run unless no new cache items are written, in which case the existing values remain in the cache.
CatalogService	A version of the CatalogApi that requires backend credentials to be passed instead of a token.
CatalogServiceRequestOptions
EntityProvider	An entity provider is able to provide entities to the catalog. See https://backstage.io/docs/features/software-catalog/life-of-an-entity for more details.
EntityProviderConnection	The connection between the catalog and the entity provider. Entity providers use this connection to add and remove entities from the catalog.

Variable	Description
catalogServiceRef	The catalogService provides the catalog API.
processingResult	Factory functions for the standard processing result types.
