cue-kind-definition

# 1. Scaffold the kind files
grafana-app-sdk project kind add MyKind --overwrite
# Produces kinds/mykind.cue + kinds/mykind_v1alpha1.cue + updates kinds/manifest.cue.

# 2. Edit the generated .cue files — fill in schema.spec / schema.status fields

# 3. Generate types and clients
grafana-app-sdk generate

# 4. Verify the generated artifacts exist
ls pkg/generated/    # should contain new types for MyKind

# 1. Copy the existing version file
cp kinds/mykind_v1alpha1.cue kinds/mykind_v1.cue

# 2. Edit kinds/mykind_v1.cue — rename the top-level object (e.g. myKindv1) and adjust the schema

# 3. Register the new version in kinds/manifest.cue
#    Add a versions["v1"]: { schema: myKindv1 } entry

# 4. Re-generate
grafana-app-sdk generate

# 5. Verify both versions were generated — per-version Go types live under pkg/generated/<group>/<version>/
ls pkg/generated/             # should list both version directories (e.g. v1alpha1/ v1/)
# Optionally inspect the CRD spec under definitions/ to confirm both versions appear in `spec.versions[]`
