Dapr integrates with external resources to allow apps to both be triggered by external events and interact with the resources. Each binding component has a name and this name is used when interacting with the resource.
As with other building block components, binding components are extensible and can be found in the [components-contrib repo](https://github.com/dapr/components-contrib).
A binding in Dapr is described using a `Component` file with the following fields:
```yaml
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
name: <NAME>
namespace: <NAMESPACE>
spec:
type: bindings.<NAME>
version: v1
metadata:
- name: <KEY>
value: <VALUE>
- name: <KEY>
value: <VALUE>
...
```
The type of binding is determined by the `type` field, and things like connection strings and other metadata are put in the `.metadata` section.
Different [supported bindings]({{< ref supported-bindings >}}) will have different specific fields that would need to be configured. For example, when configuring a binding for [Azure Blob Storage]({{< ref blobstorage>}}), the file would look like this:
```yaml
apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
name: <NAME>
spec:
type: bindings.azure.blobstorage
version: v1
metadata:
- name: storageAccount
value: myStorageAccountName
- name: storageAccessKey
value: ***********
- name: container
value: container1
- name: decodeBase64
value: <bool>
- name: getBlobRetryCount
value: <integer>
```
## Apply the configuration
Once you have created the component's YAML file, follow these instructions to apply it based on your hosting environment:
{{< tabs "Self-Hosted" "Kubernetes" >}}
{{% codetab %}}
To run locally, create a `components` dir containing the YAML file and provide the path to the `dapr run` command with the flag `--resources-path`.
{{% /codetab %}}
{{% codetab %}}
To deploy in Kubernetes, assuming your component file is named `mybinding.yaml`, run:
```bash
kubectl apply -f mybinding.yaml
```
{{% /codetab %}}
{{< /tabs >}}
