Example

Set the following environment variables for the CLI and API commands:

Variable Example Description
HUMANITEC_TOKEN my-token The authentication token for accessing the Humanitec API.
HUMANITEC_ORG my-org-id The unique identifier for the organization in Humanitec.

Use the command below for the interface of your choice to create a Resource Definition that adds a Horizontal Pod Autoscaler to Workloads that caps the maxReplicas at 2:

  1. Create a file defining the Resource Definition you want to create:
cat << EOF > hpa.yaml
apiVersion: entity.humanitec.io/v1b1
kind: Definition
metadata:
  id: hpa
entity:
  driver_type: humanitec/hpa
  name: Horizontal Pod Autoscaler
  type: horizontal-pod-autoscaler
  driver_inputs:
    values:
      maxReplicas: 2
  criteria:
  - env_type: development
EOF
  1. Use the humctl create command to create the Resource Definition in the Organization defined by your configured context:
humctl create -f hpa.yaml
rm hpa.yaml



curl https://api.humanitec.io/orgs/${HUMANITEC_ORG}/resources/defs \
  -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${HUMANITEC_TOKEN}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
