Web Service

Service-oriented components are components that support external access to services with the container as the core, and their functions cover the needs of most of he microservice scenarios.

Please copy shell below and apply to the cluster:

cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
# YAML begins
apiVersion: core.oam.dev/v1beta1
kind: Application
metadata:
name: website
spec:
components:
- name: frontend
type: webservice
properties:
image: oamdev/testapp:v1
cmd: ["node", "server.js"]
port: 8080
cpu: "0.1"
env:
- name: FOO
value: bar
# YAML ends
EOF

You can also save the YAML file as website.yaml and use the kubectl apply -f website.yaml command to deploy.

Next, check the deployment status of the application through kubectl get application <application name> -o yaml:

$ kubectl get application website -o yaml
apiVersion: core.oam.dev/v1beta1
kind: Application
metadata:
name: website
... # Omit non-critical information
spec:
components:
- name: frontend
properties:
... # Omit non-critical information
type: webservice
status:
conditions:
- lastTransitionTime: "2021-08-28T10:26:47Z"
reason: Available
status: "True"
... # Omit non-critical information
type: HealthCheck
observedGeneration: 1
... # Omit non-critical information
services:
- healthy: true
name: frontend
workloadDefinition:
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
status: running

When we see that the status.services.healthy field is true and the status is running, it means that the entire application is delivered successfully.

If status shows as rendering or healthy as false, it means that the application has either failed to deploy or is still being deployed. Please proceed according to the information returned in kubectl get application <application name> -o yaml.

You can also view through the CLI of vela, using the following command:

$ vela ls
APP COMPONENT TYPE TRAITS PHASE HEALTHY STATUS CREATED-TIME
website frontend webservice running healthy 2021-08-28 18:26:47 +0800 CST

We also see that the PHASE of the app is running and the STATUS is healthy.
