Each component in the Kodexa platform is uniquely owned by a single organization. Nevertheless, components can be designated as "public", permitting their utilization by other organizations.
Components are distinctively identified by their reference (or ref), which comprises the organization's slug, the component's slug, and its version. For example:
org_slug/component_slug:1.0.0
Kodexa hosts various component types:
Projects serve as the mechanism to amalgamate various components to address a specific use-case. Components are viewed as the fundamental building blocks, whereas projects are more tailored to specific problems or processes. Entities in this context refer to projects, individual documents, extracted data, and more. Typical entities include:
Components primarily capture metadata about a component and are deployable, while entities, each with a unique ID, store data or link to content (like documents). Entities are typically managed by a type of component or fall under the organization or platform's purview.
This distinction is critical to demonstrate how a component forms part of the organizational configuration in the platform for a use-case, whereas entities are generally associated with the projects, data, or documents being worked on.
