Overview: service.yaml
======================
The :code:`service.yaml` file contains all data about services, service
categories and the related documents of each service. The file is
used as a base for several internal and external applications or
websites like the Helpcenter 3.0 where the information about the document
repositories and its properties are stored.
File structure
--------------
The file is based on the yaml-file format and has three main sections
which can be compared with database tables in a relational database.
* documents: contains the information about every single document and its type
like umn, api-ref etc.
* service category: contains the keyword and title of the service category
* services: contains the repository information about the internal (Gitea) and
external location (GitHub) and all the necessary parameters of the service itself
These sections, or better "tables" have
their own keys and foreign keys so that the tables are linked together and
the related information can be fetched.
For the :code:`services` table
the key is :code:`service_type` which has the foreign key in the
:code:`documents` table. So a service can have multiple documents and each
document can only be linked to one service.
The key :code:`service_category` table is :code:`name` of the service category
which is then used in the :code:`services` table as foreign key.
