TOSCA Parser 0.5.1 & Types v. 1.0.1

The TOSCA Parser is an OpenStack project and licensed under Apache 2. It is developed to parse TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML. It reads the TOSCA templates and creates an in-memory graph of TOSCA nodes and their relationship.

• more information on its Architecture can be found in the README

The INDIGO TOSCA Types repository shows a YAML description of new types added in the INDIGO project to extend TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML Version 1.0 to add high level entities. In the examples directory there are a set of TOSCA documents using these types that will be supported by the INDIGO components.

• The TOSCA Parser now supports profile definition extensions that can be accessed via a custom tosca_definitions_version. Extensions can be added by creating a module in the "toscaparser/extensions" directory. See the "nfv" module for an example.
