These instructions assume you are using Minishift 1.0.1 or newer as your OpenShift installation.
You'll also need a wsk binary in your $PATH to interact with
OpenWhisk after it's deployed. Download the latest version for your OS
from https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-cli/releases/
First, start minishift and fix a networking bug in current releases:
minishift start
minishift ssh -- sudo ip link set docker0 promisc on
eval $(minishift oc-env)
Then, deploy OpenWhisk:
oc new-project openwhisk
oc create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectodd/incubator-openwhisk-deploy-kube/simplify-deployment-openshift/configure/openwhisk_openshift.yml
watch "oc get all"
Make sure all pods enter the Running state before moving on. If not, something is broken and start troubleshooting by looking in the logs of the failing pods.
The install-openwhisk-catalog-xxxxx and
preload-openwhisk-runtimes-xxxxx pods should transition from Running
to Completed as they finish installing the default OpenWhisk catalog
of packages and pulling the default OpenWhisk runtime container
images.
Then, wait until the controller recognizes the invoker as healthy:
oc logs -f $(oc get pods | grep controller | awk '{print $1}') | grep "invoker status changed"
You're looking for a message like invoker status changed to invoker0: Healthy. Once you see that message, OpenWhisk is running and you need
to configure the client authentication to your controller:
export AUTH_SECRET=$(oc get configmap openwhisk-config -o yaml | grep 'AUTH_WHISK_SYSTEM=' | awk -F '=' '{print $2}')
export API_HOST=http://$(oc get route/controller --template={{.spec.host}})
wsk property set --auth $AUTH_SECRET --apihost $API_HOST
Finally, you're ready to test actions:
wsk list
wsk action invoke /whisk.system/utils/echo -p message hello -b
Now you can follow along with the OpenWhisk docs on creating actions.
Thank you so much for these instructions!
What about switching to another project / namespace ?
The watch command should be
watch "oc get all"(it may come from my system - Mac OS X + ZSH)About the jobs, while the pod state is going to be
completed, the job state is "successful". Maybe it should be mentioned:I wonder if there is a better wait to wait for the invoker healthy-ness.
Anyway, working like a charm for me!
