# Resource
|
|
|
|
A Resource is a network-accessible external service.
|
|
|
|
## Definition
|
|
|
|
A Resource is defined in [`convox.yml`](../convox.yml.md) and linked to one or more [Services](service.md).
|
|
|
|
resources:
|
|
main:
|
|
type: postgres
|
|
services:
|
|
web:
|
|
resources:
|
|
- main
|
|
|
|
### Types
|
|
|
|
The following Resource types are currently available:
|
|
|
|
* [`memcached`](resource/memcached.md)
|
|
* [`mysql`](resource/mysql.md)
|
|
* [`postgres`](resource/postgres.md)
|
|
* [`redis`](resource/redis.md)
|
|
|
|
## Linking
|
|
|
|
Linking a Resource to a [Service](service.md) causes an environment variable to be injected into [Processes](process.md)
|
|
of that [Service](service.md) based on the name of the Resource.
|
|
|
|
The URL presented by this environment variable will contain everything you need to connect, including authentication details.
|
|
|
|
For example, a `postgres` resource named `main` (as in the example above) would injected like this:
|
|
|
|
`MAIN_URL=postgres://username:password@host.name:port/database`
|
|
|
|
## Command Line Interface
|
|
|
|
