Description

Welcome @JackRecelle! Uddeshya and @anirudhjain75 walk through Minikube and Meshery.

A

Yep, it is hey tina, welcome back.

B

Hey hi christy hi.

B

Yeah I've actually been a little busy with uh my role changed and now I'm going to be back, maybe after me going through the materials that you shared and um I thought maybe attending. This call will give me more context and understanding of how things are and yeah for me to grasp things that.

A

Makes a lot of sense. Congratulations by the way, was it a promotion or a job switch. It was both kind of yeah, okay, uh double! Congratulations, then,.

B

Thank you. Thank you so much, and uh I was also wanting to ask if you know there are some resources that are there in the um you know, new higher kind of the document, and I think kind of just pasted something for in the chat as well so yeah. So uh would this suffice or is there anything else that I can? You know try to understand, because I think that uh lee is giving some talks as well um on? Oh really- and I I registered for that and I was going to attend it as well.

A

Nice, um the workshop would actually be going on right now.

B

Yeah so they usually send the recordings after the session, so I prefer going to the recording, because I can just watch it at my pace so yeah. So is that going to be like an advanced level uh thing? Because I, uh the workshop yeah.

A

Yeah yeah, it is uh it's one of the advan mode advanced workshop, but I'm more than sure that you can find a link to the basic one.

B

Yeah I was able to find the link to the basic one, but not the recording to it. Unfortunately, so if you have it, you know you please share it to me.

A

Sure, uh let me look through it if I find um I'll either find a link for you or I'll find some sort of a summarized version. Sure thank you really help nurses all right um have you had a chance to look at the projects by the way.

B

uh Is that for me yeah? Oh, no, all right.

A

um Just getting started, yeah yeah, no issues, all right um well, keep in touch, and let us know if you need help with basically anything.

B

Sure yeah I'll reach out to you.

A

Sure all right, um it's three minutes.

A

A

Yep anirudh is slacking around. Thank you for taking up that very important role.

A

All right um before minutes in, let's start and we'll probably keep this meeting a little short today as the agenda is shot and a lot of people are missing because of the o'reilly workshops.

A

If anybody else has any other topics to add to the agenda, please please do go ahead and because the agenda is shorter today and because we are missing a few people, maybe we can even take up questions at the end of the agenda on anything either if you're having issues with setting up pastry or running any of the projects or just wondering what the heck is going on pretty good place to ask those.

A

You'd get an answer in words: more than you'd get it on text and.

A

I'll try to desha uh I see is that if that's a crying emoji, I see it.

C

Yup yup, it is.

A

You have had the hardest time. I've seen ever seen anybody having with messages, and that is actually a true fact.

C

I think everyone would agree here.

A

C

A

I hope that won't put you off, though,.

C

Well, I'm still contributing I've already. I think second contribution is still in the underway, just one review off. So yes, I'm still facing that issue by the way, at least for the mystery adapter.

A

Yeah, oh: let's try to solve that today. We have another call and I'll try to help as much as I can.

C

Okay, the fix would be lengthy. The call is shorter.

A

I don't know what mic issues or do this? Are you preferring text for today.

D

I'm just listening to you.

A

Okay, well I'll continue. Rambling, then, um could you give a little context to the error? um I don't think.

C

A

C

Sure, okay, so uh I'm using uh ubuntu 20 for dofo, and I am using on i7 engine now. So uh the error precisely is that I have to use a tube ctl, manifest like communities manifest for running up uh the basic mystery okay, I am using mini cube containers uh like mini cube environment and with a docker cry now. uh I've had a few calls before, with uh anita himself towards the fix and the basic problem right now.

C

The thing which we need to solve is that we cannot one create this config uh like whenever we upload the configs in the file uh like that option on the ui. It gives us this particular error right here. So, while uh let me just point it out here, so this should not be there, because um this fight is actually on my computer, but for some reason I think volumes or darker volumes or something like that. It's not able to pick up in the measuring environment.

C

uh Token token path, yep! I did that. I did that.

C

I used the system, config mini cube and it's still giving this error.

C

I have actually two questions like one this one and the other like the mesh adapters were not running at all.

D

Like uh it would be hard to develop this on this call and okay, otherwise, the better approach would be let the others go first and they sure could be the like. The uh is a lengthy one, so it might take some reason.

C

D

uh Fresh could go first.

A

uh Sure it's a discussion call.

A

A

He's not let's go ahead with this one I'll see if the cash is joining or not.

A

Do you want to share your screen.

C

uh Yep just a minute.

A

A

Also uh just for context, um the adapters issue that's happening with mini cube as well right.

C

Yeah yeah, okay, so right now uh should I continue.

E

C

Yeah, so I am in the docker.

D

D

Ctl, um what was the command? I forgot a q, a.

C

I need to like, I need to uh run the manifest I haven't turned the manifest yet. Okay.

D

You need to run the manifest you need. You need to run the manifesto.

C

Justice just a minute: yes, I was getting that I need to find.

C

Where's the link.

D

D

And this is on mystery.

D

Oh sorry, this.

E

C

I need to point the mystery folder first and there we go.

D

Yeah, superb now, uh can you run mini cube ip sure.

D

The ip address right can you copy it yep and open vs code or something else messy folder all right.

C

Sure yeah it's open.

D

Okay, so uh go to config.go systemconfig.com.

D

Okay, okay, you must modify later.

C

Yeah we need to put the.

D

C

Yep, this is the right one which stays the same.

D

This endpoint okay, now, let's just see in which end point the mercury service is running on so.

C

D

Three one: four: three: zero: uh can you open this one's on your browser just to confirm sure.

D

Okay, uh so run 8080 31430.

D

No, so that's not it's not exposed right.

A

Forward it to 3.3 voids, I don't know, yeah.

D

It's forwarded, but it's.

F

Last time, even.

C

It wasn't there right.

D

Can you see the ball is created on our cube? Ctrl get words and measuring yep.

F

F

C

A

Not it's not ready right, yep. It's not.

D

Just describe it like cube ctl describe measuring, I guess it should be deployment, slash measuring the entire code here and then the name space.

E

D

C

Yeah deployment.

D

Slash memory now, yeah now the name you just need to enter mystery. I guess just just keep measuring here.

C

uh Measuring okay.

G

C

Describe measuring that's it. Yeah deployment describe mystery.

D

And then name space battery.

D

D

Okay, so, uh okay, now, let's just look into the pod itself, uh uh can you just confirm if the port is created or not again, it's taking a lot of time. It's image, pull backwards.

D

uh Just do the same thing, but with the ball instead, like cubes, you can describe pod slash the pod on id namespace measuring.

C

And this one right.

D

F

Let me just there, you go.

D

Fail to pull image, okay,.

D

Okay, it's pulling image, uh go up. Okay, this this is log. It's pulling the image 2 minute, 58 seconds. Let's just wait.

F

A

The funny thing is I'm using this exact environment for um catechola tutorials, and it's perfectly working.

D

uh Yes, I don't know how to say, but this laptop.

F

C

It's honestly, a pain for your qa.

D

Truly yeah: can you check the path condition? No.

C

Still pulling image, as it seems.

D

It's stick, okay, it won't. It won't pull the image. I don't think I don't think it's gonna do the best.

H

Thing would be to.

D

uh Destroy the uh namespace and create it again if it's still all right, if there's an issue, then I'll try locally.

C

uh Cubesated, what's a delete.

D

Yeah cubesat delete.

D

D

D

D

Also uh sriti, are we planning on having a gke tutorial for measuring.

A

um Do you mean karakuro? What do you mean.

D

The normal using gke uh just gk, so google cloud, google container yeah yeah right. This is just using those or yeah. It's.

A

Still, not free yeah, still not very clear, which platform would we be using for the tutorial.

D

A

Platform- um I got that I'm I actually mean. Where would we be.

D

That would be through the gke engine, so google kubernetes engine, so the cluster will be on gke, uh not through category or the any other provider, but through the google humanities engine itself manually, basically you're creating the uh entire structure manually through a helm and dk.

A

I'm not very sure about that. Let's talk about it.

H

C

H

B

C

Time out bit better, let's see they're creating 46 seconds off.

D

It's better yet at least you've got the image.

C

um I think it's decent, I mean I, it can't get any better. That's there.

D

C

G

D

Due to uh the cpu allocation, so he must have given less cpu resource to the minicube cluster and the cluster has to maintain the cubelet and the entire kubernetes.

D

C

So I can uh like put in the codes and the memory allocated right at the start of mini cube right.

D

Yeah, so that would help, but let's just not do it now, because it would take yeah that.

F

D

F

C

D

A

Yep, I already have.

D

D

D

Everyone's measuring instance is going so well. You don't have any questions.

C

I am so jealous.

F

D

So we have nickel here.

D

D

Okay, let's do one thing: let's just go over measuring sql context. uh I guess we would have a better stay on that.

D

Can you share the doctor that I I guess I already shared you.

A

D

Just while the container is being created, sure uh I'll send it again on chat.

A

uh Already have drink there, you go.

C

Okay, I think everyone is stopped.

D

Okay, so uh this is another experimental command. Okay, you, you were at the right place, actually.

D

Okay, so this is the this: is another uh new experimental command. uh We don't so it can be context itself, so the current I'm just theorizing it so uh anyone who's who's. I've ever worked with cuban letters would know that you can switch between context of clusters, so uh switching between gk aka and the local kubernetes environment would become easier right. Currently in measuring ctl, we don't have any such thing.

D

We have hard-coded localhost everywhere and trust me, that's annoying, because every time I need to work with gk, I have to rebuild the uh entire binary from scratch and that's not a feasible option for a normal user and even for a dev. I agree with because issues like how um would they share will face in the future.

D

Should be prevented so context by having context what we would do is we would switch between environments and the metro. Ctl would uh use the latest values on the environment to work with your, uh let's just say, cluster right or the measuring back end, which will interact with the cluster.

D

So uh the um approach here would be using the measuring ctl configuration and that's and the another thing here is measure serial configuration. Currently, it has a lot of stuff that it doesn't actually need to do so.

D

What we'll be doing here is we'll be removing all those and just keeping the necessary stuff inside the emergency, ctl config and yeah. uh Could you scroll a bit lower yeah measure ctl config, so this is how we would have the measuring ctrl config, so uh perf these? These are just the end points that are grouped in the metro. Cto, the local would be your local environment, and actually this should be a localhost 8080 or anything else.

D

Pardon me for that the gk base url would be the cluster endpoint, which I have on my jk instance, and the context of the current context would point to the object id which could be. Basically it could be gk, it could be localhost and it could be any of the uh environments that we create here.

D

So the upcoming commands we are looking into uh so I'll just get into the dock.

D

D

So the upcoming commands we are looking into would be measure cdl, create context, make sure cdl uh create context could be you know it would make things a lot easier, delete context and uh maybe edit possibly and miguel anything on this.

D

See you at that context and yeah. The best thing would be uh any changes on measuring cdl con. Some of you might have used mature ctl system config. So that's measure ctrl system, config right. So any changes here would reflect on the uh context.

D

So if I do measure ctl system, config mini queue, it would automatically either look for my existing mini grip, config or it would basically create a new uh context of minicube and point the mini cube base url on that area, and that would actually help because uh there are we like, as I said, you don't need to compile the entire binary just to change the urls hardcoded.

D

So just use the configurations configuration file. This is still in uh let's it would be bad if I say it's in progress, because it's certainly not right. Now I just created the dock, so maybe a week from now we will have this feature.

D

The experimental feature context.

D

So that's entirely on what context is um like uh like like. uh If everyone read this talk and let me know where things can be improved and if you have a better approach, do let me know like the approach correctly. I'm look uh reading out is basically a cheap report from cube ctm config.

C

And that that should be a problem right.

C

That shouldn't be a problem right, yeah.

D

That that would be a problem, but if there is a better way, obviously it's better to use the improvement.

D

So this is the entire workout cube, ctl context, all right. Sorry, metrics, atl context, context.

A

All right any comments or questions.

E

A

Before we move back to harassing his laptop.

C

Status update, all of them containers are up.

A

C

Yeah go ahead. Yeah. Let me share my screen again.

C

F

Cube city and get services.

C

Yeah, so I should be able to see it here right, yep.

A

You should be able to.

F

F

C

Okay, so basically rebuild the right.

D

Yeah, you have to rebuild the uh mystery cto, um so this is. This is the part that I think it's it's becoming annoying for us to actually yeah just frequently.

D

uh Yeah, just save it do a make measure cpu.

C

uh Right, I don't know uh I I just I just remember the command, which told me I can of course cancel it. No issues, yeah.

D

It's a single single me.

C

D

I guess it does the same thing strange.

C

What's the make file here, though,.

D

So this for windows, for when.

D

Okay, now you see local measuring ctl and do the system config.

C

Okay, I need to put the token down and.

D

I just used your previous token, the token. Actually uh it shouldn't matter, but yeah use the latest one. Who cares uh use the latest token and.

C

C

G

C

G

Back uh and refresh the page right, yeah.

D

C

Oh, my god, whoa.

C

D

Thank god, please good good thing. These meetings.

C

Oh god, okay! So to check this out, I need too, like.

D

C

What what happened.

C

Okay, it's an issue service mess. It's no longer one point, seven point three and all that.

A

uh No, no, it's has been refactored.

D

C

And this one, let's see.

A

um Go back to the dashboard.

C

uh Which one precisely this one issue.

A

No, no no stay on this.

D

Yeah, it should get updated.

F

You should get a notification.

D

In the bell icon, where it would actually say whether you, whether the process has been successful or not, the other way could be, you could uh do cube. Ctl log.

A

um Get the container from.

E

A

Yeah yeah get the.

D

Container: okay logs get what cubesater logs.

C

uh uh But I need to get the name of the container right.

D

No, you, don't you don't need you, you can just simply use it. Okay,.

C

Deployment deployment.

D

uh Measuring sto, okay and do space minus s.

C

G

Minus f minus f minus k: oh.

D

My god, spelling.

G

C

And that's one.

D

Yeah, that's it.

D

Okay uh deployments, I guess, know it, um deployment measuring issue. Did you mess with this feeling or something.

D

F

C

Okay, um this one's the spot already cube sit here.

D

Aim command just replace with pod slash.

D

Because by default.

C

All right so dash, f and dash and mystery right.

D

Okay, it's done.

A

Yep, um try refreshing the pages so now.

C

G

C

G

A

D

Finally, you have another material as a tutorial for setting up.

F

C

Okay, uh also one more thing: I went through the. um What was that the github link of issue development or the whatever it was like learning visually with issue? I think, but is there any screencast or something like that of the same, because I could not find the link for that.

D

What do you want you do? You want the uh measuring, steer, posturing.

C

uh Not exactly dossier but uh the if there's a video tutorial or something like that of the same thing, because I think it it originated from there if it was recorded.

C

um I'm not sure if I'm not maybe able to explain properly wait.

A

I'm not completely sure what you're talking about.

C

Yeah this one yeah is your service mesh workshop.

A

All right this one.

C

A

Yeah, that's the basic workshop um I'll, find a link and send it to both you and tina.

F

A

You can add.

F

My singles on your local.

A

Machine as well also, if you want to go through that, you can go through the category tutorial, it's the same thing with.

C

A

Added features.

C

um Okay, where can I find that.

E

A

There you go, there's a link in the chat.

E

F

Great okay, we didn't slack.

A

Also, it's it's runs on the exact same environment that your current laptop is running on so.

C

C

Thanks man, thanks for fixing this up, both of you andy road and shitty,.

A

uh Chris, all under it.

A

D

A

Else have any other topics.

A

It cush won't be able to make it to the call.

A

Unfortunately, yep um I won't extend this call beyond the next 10 minutes if we don't come up with any other topics. So if you have any other questions about the project about setting up more q and a's like adesha.

A

I bet you can't top him, though,.

A

Go ahead and ask them here it's much easier to get an answer here. It's much um nicer to get an answer here, because you'll be having a real point, um not a real person having a person answer in real time rather than on text, and you have a full attention for the next 10 minutes.

A

Or more, if you need it.

F

A

All right um before we switch over to any questions or if anybody else is still thinking about the topics they want to talk about. um We have this tradition, where people who are joining the call for the first time give an intro or tell it little bit about themselves. It can be anything from your favorite color to the projects you work on to the domains you work in um etc.

A

Maxine. Would you like to go or give us an intro.

E

um Hi everyone can you hear me yep, okay, um yeah, I'm just a new one. I've been joining the project like two days ago um and I'm just starting to work on the new issue.

E

In the meantime, I'm setting up my environment, but it's still not done yet.

A

It's nice to hear: did you find something to work on, or did you find any project that catches your eye yet.

E

um I many content protests discover the project regarding the front end and I had a catch up with ruth. So she she assigned me an issue about the layer 5 website, the next generation. One.

A

E

A

You've already started.

E

But yeah I need to set up everything like docker. I had some issue yesterday to set it up on linux, but I think um I I will start this again from scratch before to raise this to everyone. Yes,.

A

That's great, um I think I talked to you yesterday itself on text asking the same question and it's great to hear that you already found something to work on.

E

A

That's nice, um if you need any help with the setup, if you need any help with anything else, I'm more than sure that we can find your people to help with the basic setup or the same way. We just helped with this.

A

If you're working with life entry, I'm assuming you'll, be setting up gatsby.

A

And that can be slightly tough if you haven't before.

E

The um the main use, like the main comment to the mesh, the naturally project and local host. This is the only thing I did so far, but I didn't deploy anything locally to in order to start making some changes.

E

In development, for example, this is the next. This is my next progress to follow them. Is that right to follow the readme file on the service manage workshop repository.

A

uh Yep, that's. What are you exactly trying to do.

E

um Just letting get the basics instead of goku kubernetes uh mesherie and the istio ctr.

A

um Yeah, that's perfect. um Maybe not the read me on the service mesh lab repo. The read me on life report might be a better alternative for you I'll, send you a link.

H

A

Yeah, nice um for setting up docker or communities on your local system and just getting started with deploying measuring the basic readme or the basic contributing guide should be enough um for deploying mystery. The meshy documentation should be more than enough, and if you have any issues, come back to us on this call and we'll help you out or come back to us on slack and we'll help you out for life. 5 energy, particularly, I think, there's a different contributing guide. I'll tell you links for both and you should be good to go.

A

If you have any other issues or if you face any roadblocks again bring us in slack and we'll help you out.

E

All right, okay, yeah.

A

All right, um it's great to have you.

E

A

Hey same um vishal tanish have you joined us for a call before this.

A

If not, um do give us an intro or do speak up uh in the meanwhile uh ameya did you get messy running on eks.

H

Damn I I couldn't get it working I'm now, building on this mini cube and a fun few issues here, I'm more than happy to share my screen and if anyone has an expertise here to at least give me get me mini cube working. um That would be really appreciated.

A

um Do we have the time right now.

H

Sorry, mike, I couldn't hear you.

H

Look I'm having few issues around the mini cube um for measuring to get installed, I'm getting some errors there and it's not getting me anywhere. So I don't know what I need to do so. Can you see the point here.

A

Yeah, it's in the.

D

Chat, that is having lots of mystery and not mini cube.

A

H

um Come again mike, what do you say there.

D

Loves in chat are related to measure seo and not mini cube.

H

uh They are actually so when you do. Okay, I'm running this command here, um one sec I'll, show you what command I'm running. So my command is pretty simple, which is curl um I'll face this one as well yeah in the chat.

A

It might be better if you shut your screen.

H

I might if you can yeah.

D

H

So look, this is what I'm actually running. Okay, just right in front of you and we'll have some issues. You know.

H

D

The uh what how do I say you already have measured ctl installed now, so the aim of the uh the entire command is to have measure ctl installed on your machine right.

H

um So, look: let's go once again very slow. I will share my screen here. uh You can see you can see this one as well here right there. This measure is coming here and then, when I go and get the token yeah, so this total remains constant or it keeps on changing. I don't know.

D

uh I think it's it keeps on changing like according to the uh code, it keeps on changing, but the change is very mining minute.

H

Okay, now that's fine, so I am getting this error, so I'm gonna do a get token. Now: okay,.

H

I'll go on another window; okay, so it says unable to connect to the kubernetes.

D

So this you don't need to focus on this for now. uh You've already got the token.

D

uh Come again, what was the question you said you have already downloaded the token on the browser. So if you open the browser.

H

Yeah, I'm now doing that. I'm copying that token onto my mini cube server.

D

So you have unable to scan kubernetes https.

H

What I'm saying is that let me do one thing I'll just copy this token here. This is what I have downloaded.

H

Okay, so I copy.

H

E

A

H

Then I'm gonna do ssh on the machine. You know where, where my mini cube is running. Okay, now there's a very good command.

H

H

Okay, so this is command okay, I've copied, as we see and I get an error.

A

H

It says unable to scan kubernetes. I don't know why. Why is this I'm not on vpn in any shape or form? um I don't know why this is not working.

D

So, okay, this doesn't return anything.

D

H

Mean your voice is.

H

Your voice is coming from far off.

D

um That's probably there is an issue with connection.

H

uh I don't know what you're saying I can't. I don't understand.

A

um uh Amir, let's do one thing: let's switch to a different call than this one and that's. This will take a tiny bit more time to understand and a tiny bit more time to start out. Yeah.

H

That's totally cool, not a problem. Let's look.

A

Let's try this at a some other time or on a different call.

A

It's a slightly hazy, so I think there might be a little bit of a problem with either your connection or the mic or something nobody's fault, um all right, uh amaya. Let's continue this on uh either on a different call or on slack.

H

Yeah I'll continue on snack no issues with that sure.

A

All right um does anybody.

H

A

Other questions.

A

All right, um we'll still be on call for the next five minutes, but otherwise thank you for coming on everybody. Thank you for spending.

A

15 minutes of your time with us this week um same call next week same time and we'll be having a slightly more filled agenda, which is the same thing I said last week, but this is the last week in which we are having o'reilly trainings, which is why the agenda is slightly thin, then normal and will be back in full force next week.

A

Thank you for joining in this particular week and thank you in helping us or watching us all. Adasha's, faqs and amir's mini cube problems, and that's it that's it for today. Thank you.

D

A
