Reference

Wick configuration is broken down in two major pieces: applications and components.

Components

Components all follow the same basic structure, but can be configured in a variety of ways. Every component exposes operations that take inputs and produce outputs. Components and operations are analogous to modules/libraries and functions in other languages. The primary difference with wick is that every input and output is a stream. This lets you build components that can be composed in a variety of ways and that scale better as your applications grow.

Component types

• WebAssembly (WasmRS) -
• Composite -
• SQL -
• HTTP Client -

Applications

Applications translate the rest of the world into the wick world. They do this by defining “triggers” which operate on events, translate necessary input into wick streams, then delegate the rest of the execution to wick components.

Wick triggers:

Application triggers

• HTTP Trigger - A trigger whose events are HTTP requests from an HTTP server and whose operations produce HTTP responses.
• Time Trigger - A trigger whose events are time-based and whose operations’ output is logged.
• CLI Trigger - A trigger whose events are initiated upon CLI execution and whose operations produce exit codes.
