Enable a Crossplane Provider addon​

KubeVela can support following cloud providers by enabling the Crossplane provider addons.

$ vela addon list | grep crossplane-
crossplane-aws              KubeVela    Kubernetes Crossplane Controller for AWS                                                                [0.0.1]                         enabled (1.0.0)                         enabled (1.0.1)

To enable one of them, use the following command:

$ vela addon enable crossplane-xxx

You can also disable, upgrade, check status of an addon by command vela addon.
