KubernetesClusterGoogleCloud

CI/CD example of a 4 container weather application using Google Container Register and Google Kubernetes Clusters

Premise

Started around 1PM MST off and on through the day and spent roughly 5 hours on the this.

• 30 minutes to fork each repo and setup up build triggers from bitbucket to GC Container Registry
• 1 hour looking into each containers configuration
• 30mins due to npm (network?) issue when building weather-ui, resolved
• 30mins due to issues with ym local Ubuntu 17.10 laptop, golang, and dep. unresolved
• 1 hour going into the container like `kubectl exec -it weather-ui-2033027954-rn8fg -- /bin/sh` to see if there was network issue among containers, but everything in the cluster could hit the correct endpoints in the code.
• 1 hour looking at different code in repo to understand why weather-geo and weather-api we're not returning any data from Dark Sky / Google Maps
• 1 hour working on issues with Ubuntu 17.10 and not being able to use 'dep' to pull down go dependencies. The 'dep' install instructions are all for homebrew. When I ran the linux-x86_64 binary it wasn't letting me compile with my $GOPATH set correctly.

Assessment tasks

1. Fork the weather-{ui,proxy,geo,api} repos to a bitbucket account.
2. All repos weres cloned locally and ran a `docker build .` against each to get an idea of what they do.
3. In Google Cloud Container Registery setup a build trigger for each bitbucket repo to build containers on commits to master.
4. Trigger builds for weather-{ui,proxy,geo,api} to create the containers in a CI/CD manor into Container Registery.
5. Create a Kubernetes cluster
6. Used kubectl -f deployment.yaml / services.yaml in each repo to deploy containers and services
