Records

Records constitute the central feature of Starlite, supporting your needs around documenting software.

From the Catalog view you create each Record, regardless of whether you want to handle its lifecycle manually—updating and adding values through the user interface—or by automation, where updates happen when the manifest file is uploaded.

Catalog example

Records must be in an automated lifecycle in order for updates to take place via automation.

In an automated lifecycle, the information displayed in Starlite’s Records are stored in a structured JSON file: This is called the manifest file and is always named starlite.manifest.json. You keep and lifecycle-manage this manifest file in a Git repository. See the integration guide for details.
