Understanding Liveness, Readiness and Startup Probes in Kubernetes

 This is a small article about understanding the liveness, readiness and startup in kubernetes.  There's good explanation in the kubernetes documentation: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/ This video also explains well the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTlQBofihJQ But I wanted to understand it in a practical way. So I have this demo: https://github.com/DiegoTc/guest-book-js-docker/tree/Running-App-Version-1 It's a simple application running on a kubernetes cluster. https://github.com/DiegoTc/guest-book-js-docker/blob/Running-App-Version-1/argo/deployment.yaml apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata: name: chat-ui spec: replicas: 1 revisionHistoryLimit: 3 selector: matchLabels: app: chat-ui template: metadata: labels: app: chat-ui spec: containers: - image: diegotc/guestbook:20230803-064434 imagePullPolicy: Alwa...

Understanding Liveness, Readiness and Startup Probes in Kubernetes

 This is a small article about understanding the liveness, readiness and startup in kubernetes. 

There's good explanation in the kubernetes documentation: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/

This video also explains well the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTlQBofihJQ

But I wanted to understand it in a practical way.

So I have this demo: https://github.com/DiegoTc/guest-book-js-docker/tree/Running-App-Version-1

It's a simple application running on a kubernetes cluster.

https://github.com/DiegoTc/guest-book-js-docker/blob/Running-App-Version-1/argo/deployment.yaml


apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: chat-ui
spec:
  replicas: 1
  revisionHistoryLimit: 3
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: chat-ui
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: chat-ui
    spec:
      containers:
        - image: diegotc/guestbook:20230803-064434
          imagePullPolicy: Always
          name: chat-ui
          ports:
            - containerPort: 5500


Everything is OK.  You can see how it appears in our ArgoCD
Repo with failing image: https://github.com/DiegoTc/guest-book-js-docker/tree/Crash-App-Version-1
Docker image working: diegotc/guestbook:20230803-064434





But what happens, if we deploy an image that crashes?
Docker images crashes: diegotc/guestbook:20230803-070920

So what happens, is that our application is in a infinite loop, trying to start and it doesn't works.
So now, we're going to see the same example, but with the startup configuration.
Repo with solution: https://github.com/DiegoTc/guest-book-js-docker/blob/Running-App-Version-2/argo/deployment.yaml
Docker image working: diegotc/guestbook:20230803-073811

After we deploy our application that will cause the crash
Repo: https://github.com/DiegoTc/guest-book-js-docker/tree/Crash-App-Version-2
Docker images crashes: diegotc/guestbook:20230803-082315


As you can see, our application is still running, even we deploy a wrong image.

You can read more about it in the kubernete documentation: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/

Getting Docker Syntax In Gedit

I have been working with docker in the last days, and encounter the syntax issue with gedit. Just pure plain text. So make a small search and found an easy way for fixing this. I found Jasper J.F. van den Bosch repository in GitHub and found the solution for this simple problem. We need to download the docker.lang file, available here:  https://github.com/ilogue/docker.lang/blob/master/docker.lang After that, you go to the folder you save the file and do the following command. sudo mv docker.lang /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs/  If this doesn't work you can try the following: sudo mv docker.lang  ~/.local/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs/ And that's all!

Ansible using plugins for dynamic inventories

This is a small post about how to use inventory plugins in Ansible. If you are looking the script way I recommend to read this article: http://gloriasilveira.com/setting-up-ansible-for-aws-with-dynamic-inventory-ec2.html It explains really good this or you can watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnbqO1kTPqE&t=6s But if you’re looking to use inventory this article can help you. First of all, why should I used inventory if all over the internet they’re using the python scripts? Well, Ansible recommends it: Inventory plugins take advantage of the most recent updates to Ansible’s core code. We recommend plugins over scripts for dynamic inventory. You can write your own plugin to connect to additional dynamic inventory sources. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/intro_dynamic_inventory.html The actual ansible guide is quite good, but there was a step that got me confused, probably my english isn’t so good and I didn’t understood it. We need to ena...
