ProtoK

A framework for Kubernetes that allows running serverless functions. Serverless functions made easy for Kubernetes through a beautiful UI.

Requirements

1. npm - For managing Node Packages.
2. Python3 - For managing the Controller Backend.
3. Git - Source control.

Installation

Setup Kubernetes Infra

1. sh ./setup.sh -- to apply all the necessary yaml configurations
2. cd protok_controller; ./crd_controller.py to run python CRD controller
3. cd protok_controller; ./app.py to run python app
4. Now Protok Kubernetes infrastructure should be fully setup if all of these go through

Setup Web Frontend/Backend

1. Clone the repository

$ git clone https://github.com/dprasse/ProtoK.git

2. Install the required depenendencies from the main folder.

$ npm install

3. Run the startup script that will install the dependencies and launch the frontend and backend server.

$ npm start

4. You should now be able to access the frontend through your localhost url http://localhost:8080/

Simple helloworld() demo

1. curl -k -v -XPOST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d@./protok_controller/templates/controller_create_function.json http://127.0.0.1:5000/apis/stable.protok.com/v1/namespaces/default/serverlessfunctions -- to create a helloworld function that prints 2 input strings
2. kubectl get serverlessfunctions -- you should be able to see the newly created function here
3. kubectl get pods -- make sure that the pods is running
4. curl -X POST --data '{"message1": "ok", "message2": "ok"}' http://127.0.0.1:8091/api/v1/namespaces/default/services/helloworld:http-function-port/proxy/ -H "Content-Type: application/json"
