Dapr Integration Skill
Quick Start
Read Phase 5 Constitution - constitution-prompt-phase-5.md
Check Dapr installation - dapr --version
Initialize Dapr - dapr init or dapr init -k for Kubernetes
Create component files - In dapr-components/ directory
Configure sidecar - Annotations for Kubernetes deployments
Test locally - dapr run commands
Dapr Building Blocks Overview
Building Block Purpose Phase 5 Usage
Pub/Sub
Task events, reminders, audit logs
State Key-value storage Cache, session state
Secrets Secret management API keys, DB credentials
Service Invocation Service-to-service calls Microservice communication
Jobs API Scheduled tasks Recurring task scheduling
