appkit
AppKit runtime glue: the auto-configuring createApp drop-in, plus the
per-request execution context helpers and types derived from it.
createApp runs dbx-tools auto-configuration, then delegates to AppKit’s own
createApp with the same arguments and the same typed plugin-export map.
Drop it in as a one-for-one replacement:
import { lakebase, server } from "@databricks/appkit";import { appkit } from "@dbx-tools/appkit";
await appkit.createApp({ plugins: [server(), lakebase()] });Auto-configuration runs BEFORE delegating so plugins see a fully populated
process.env during their synchronous setup(). Lakebase Postgres runs when
a lakebase plugin is present, or when AutoConfigureMode is set
explicitly on the config object.
getExecutionContext() is AppKit’s own accessor for the OBO-scoped workspace
client + request metadata; the wrappers here make it safe to call outside a
request scope (tryGetExecutionContext) and to lazily boot a bare app
(ensureInitialized), and re-export the derived types so add-on
packages can type a context / client without re-deriving them inline.
