FlameTest

I've been using this project to test FLAME on minikube, to vet the k8s capabilities before trying anything in production. Here's my general workflow:

• First, clone this repo and install minikube
• minikube start to fire up the cluster
• eval $(minikube docker-env) to use minikube's docker repo
• cd into flame_test, if you're not already there
• docker build -t flame_test:latest . to build the image
• kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml to start up the k8s resources
• Get a shell into one of the pods in the cluster (I included a deployment of testing pods in deployment.yaml), e.g. kubectl exec -n flame-namespace --stdin --tty iex-debug-deployment-7bfbfbc76f-5jkpm -- /bin/bash
• POST a request to one of the flame-test pods, e.g. curl -X POST http://10.244.0.81:4000/call -d '{"data": 42}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"
• You'll get a response of {message: ${data * 2}} in your console! If you check the logs of whichever pod you sent the request to, you'll see a log line that tells you the node that actually processed your request! e.g. Processed task on node :"[email protected]"
