Build component spec and validate using dcae_cli (Design support)
Every component to be onboarded into DCAE, should prepare a component spec (a.k.a spec) - which is meta data represented in json describing the component configuration model. Details on spec creation can be found here - https://onap.readthedocs.io/en/beijing/submodules/dcaegen2.git/docs/sections/components/component-specification/component-specification.html?highlight=component%20spec
The dcae_cli tools enables MS owner to validate the component spec and data_Formats created and also "test" the deployment of MS itself. This allows components to mimic the configuration returned from ConfigBinding Service as expected on typical cloudify based deployment by DCAE platform (Documentation on spec format and tool usage can be found under https://onap.readthedocs.io/en/beijing/submodules/dcaegen2.git/docs/sections/components/dcae-cli/commands.html?highlight=dcae_cli )
