Luiz Felipe Kina 4234c21cbf debian: stx-metrics-server-sample-app: port to debian
Since stx-metrics-server-sample-app doesn't inherit from the base
image, the Dockerfile didn't need to be changed, but to follow the
structure that was used in other apps that were migrated to debian,
some directories were changed.

Test Plan:
PASS: Debian - Build Debian docker image and upload/apply
metrics-server and metrics-server-sample-app. Verified that the app is
applied and the container is created.

PASS: CentOS - Same tests that were done on Debian.

Sample App

Containerized application that retrieves metrics server data

How does it work ?

The sample app is a Nodejs app that requests the metrics every second and prints that in the console. The deployment creates a service account, roles and role binding to allows this application communicate with the api, this token is stored by default on /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token, the application is reading that token and doing the requests on the endpoint /apis/metrics.k8s.io/v1beta1/pods that returns all pod metrics and log it on console.

Important files

  • src - Contains Nodejs application
  • Dockerfile - Application Dockerfile

Run application

Deploy tha sample app using system helm-override-update --reuse-values --set atribute=value <app name> <chart name> <namespace> folow the steps below:

  • Run system helm-override-update --reuse-values --set sampleApp.create=true metrics-server metrics-server metrics-server
  • Run system application apply metrics-server to apply the override
  • Run kubectl get pods -n metric-server-test-app to get the name of the pod
  • Run kubectl logs -n metric-server-test-app pod-name --tail 1 -f to see the logs and check if the sample application is requesting successfully the metrics server api

Endpoints

All of the following endpoints are GET endpoints and they are under the base path /apis/metrics.k8s.io/v1beta1:

  • /nodes - all node metrics
  • /nodes/{node} - metrics for a specified node
  • /namespaces/{namespace}/pods - all pod metrics within namespace with support for all-namespaces
  • /namespaces/{namespace}/pods/{pod} - metrics for a specified pod
  • /pods - all pod metrics of all namespaces
