Deploy the Superhero Ratings App to AKS

Review/Edit the YAML Config Files

  1. In Azure Cloud Shell edit heroes-db.yaml using Visual Studio Code:

    cd ~/blackbelt-aks-hackfest/labs/helper-files
    
    code heroes-db.yaml
    
    • Review the yaml file and learn about some of the settings

    • Update the yaml file for the proper container image name

    • You will need to replace the <login server> with the ACR login server created in lab 2

    • Example:

      spec:
      containers:
      - image: mycontainerregistry.azurecr.io/azureworkshop/rating-db:v1
          name:  heroes-db-cntnr
      
  2. In Azure Cloud Shell edit heroes-web-api.yaml using Visual Studio Code:

    cd ~/blackbelt-aks-hackfest/labs/helper-files
    
    code heroes-web-api.yaml
    
    • Review the yaml file and learn about some of the settings. Note the environment variables that allow the services to connect

    • Update the yaml file for the proper container image names.

    • You will need to replace the <login server> with the ACR login server created in lab 2

      Note: You will update the image name TWICE updating the web and api container images.

    • Example:

      spec:
      containers:
      - image: mycontainerregistry.azurecr.io/azureworkshop/rating-web:v1
          name:  heroes-web-cntnr
      

Setup AKS with access to Azure Container Registry

There are a few ways that AKS clusters can access your private Azure Container Registry. Generally the service account that kubernetes utilizes will have rights based on its Azure credentials. In our lab config, we must create a secret to allow this access.

# set these values to yours
ACR_SERVER=
ACR_USER=
ACR_PWD=

kubectl create secret docker-registry acr-secret --docker-server=$ACR_SERVER --docker-username=$ACR_USER --docker-password=$ACR_PWD --docker-email=superman@heroes.com

Note: You can review the heroes-db.yaml and heroes-web-api.yaml to see where the imagePullSecrets are configured.

Deploy database container to AKS

  • Use the kubectl CLI to deploy each app

    cd ~/blackbelt-aks-hackfest/labs/helper-files
    
    kubectl apply -f heroes-db.yaml
    
  • Get mongodb pod name

    kubectl get pods
    
    NAME                                 READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
    heroes-db-deploy-2357291595-k7wjk    1/1       Running   0          3m
    
    MONGO_POD=heroes-db-deploy-2357291595-k7wjk
    
  • Import data into MongoDB using script

    # ensure the pod name variable is set to your pod name
    # once you exec into pod, run the `import.sh` script
    
    kubectl exec -it $MONGO_POD bash
    
    root@heroes-db-deploy-2357291595-xb4xm:/# ./import.sh
    2018-01-16T21:38:44.819+0000	connected to: localhost
    2018-01-16T21:38:44.918+0000	imported 4 documents
    2018-01-16T21:38:44.927+0000	connected to: localhost
    2018-01-16T21:38:45.031+0000	imported 72 documents
    2018-01-16T21:38:45.040+0000	connected to: localhost
    2018-01-16T21:38:45.152+0000	imported 2 documents
    root@heroes-db-deploy-2357291595-xb4xm:/# exit
    
    # be sure to exit pod as shown above
    

Deploy the web and api containers to AKS

  • Use the kubectl CLI to deploy each app

    cd ~/blackbelt-aks-hackfest/labs/helper-files
    
    kubectl apply -f heroes-web-api.yaml
    

Validate

  • Check to see if pods are running in your cluster

    kubectl get pods
    
    NAME                                 READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
    heroes-api-deploy-1140957751-2z16s   1/1       Running   0          2m
    heroes-db-deploy-2357291595-k7wjk    1/1       Running   0          3m
    heroes-web-1645635641-pfzf9          1/1       Running   0          2m
    
  • Check to see if services are deployed.

    kubectl get service
    
    NAME         TYPE           CLUSTER-IP    EXTERNAL-IP      PORT(S)          AGE
    api          LoadBalancer   10.0.20.156   52.176.104.50    3000:31416/TCP   5m
    kubernetes   ClusterIP      10.0.0.1      <none>           443/TCP          12m
    mongodb      ClusterIP      10.0.5.133    <none>           27017/TCP        5m
    web          LoadBalancer   10.0.54.206   52.165.235.114   8080:32404/TCP   5m
    
  • Browse to the External IP for your web application (on port 8080) and try the app

The public IP can take a few minutes to create with a new cluster. Sit back and relax. Maybe check Facebook.
