Adding the Appsody Templates

With Codewind running, add the Appsody templates to Codewind by making a POST request to the http://localhost:9090/api/v1/templates/repositories REST API endpoint with the following content:

{
    "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kabanero-io/codewind-appsody-templates/master/devfiles/index.json",
    "description": "Appsody templates"
}

You may make the request using a REST client utility such as Postman or by using the curl command, e.g.:

$ curl "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/templates/repositories" \
-X POST \
-d '{ "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kabanero-io/codewind-appsody-templates/master/devfiles/index.json", "description": "Appsody templates" }' \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
