I wanted a helm chart of Googles microservices demo to deploy and maintain the deployment using helm. That's it.
Get yourself a copy of the repo: [email protected]:ronamosa/hipstershop-demo.git, and follow the instructions below, depending on your intended setup.
Ubuntu:
sudo snap install microk8s --classic
microk8s.statusenable helm version 3
microk8s.enable helm3TBC
Do a dry-run first before you deploy to make sure the charts are happy.
The cli convention here is: helm-command 'install|upgrade --install' '--debug --dry-run' <helm release name> <chart-folder>
microk8s.helm3 install --debug --dry-run hipstershop helm/Now, deploy it
microk8s.helm3 install --debug hipstershop helm/Check the release
microk8s.helm3 list

for example
microk8s.kubectl get svc

If you want to expose your shop deployment to your LAN (the network your PC is on) use the following command to patch the frontend-external service to your machines IP address
kubectl patch svc frontend-external -n hipster-shop -p '{"spec": {"type": "LoadBalancer", "externalIPs":["<ip-address of masternode>"]}}'
for example, have look at your k8s services
$ microk8s.kubectl get svc

shippingservice ClusterIP 10.152.183.46 <none> 50051/TCP 3h26mget your computers IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.11)
run the patch: microk8s.kubectl patch svc frontend-external -p '{"spec": {"type": "LoadBalancer", "externalIPs":["192.168.1.11"]}}'
check out your k8s services again

If you see the recommendationservice pod 'CrashLooping', check the logs and if they are talking about 'GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS' being missing you have two choices:
- Get your creds from your GCP account, save them as a .json file, and then run
'export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/json/file', and now your stackdriver should be ok. - Disable the functions in the microservice that needs stackdriver
make sure your 'recommendationservice/templates/deployment.yaml' has these uncommented
- name: DISABLE_TRACING
value: "1"
- name: DISABLE_PROFILER
value: "1"
- name: DISABLE_DEBUGGER
value: "1"Uninstallation is really easy with helm, run this command and watch (only if you want to) the pods terminate and everything deployed by helm will be removed (remember the release name for the example is 'hipstershop'):
