Kubernetes: 10. Node Selector

Scheduler

  • By default Pods gets scheduled based on node availability for the scheduler
  • There may be cases where in one of the node has more resources and the pod required to be scheduled on this node
  • There are two ways to achieve this
    1. Node Selector
    2. Node Affinity
Node Selector
  • Update the pod definition file with the node selector label
  • Pod will be scheduled on the node matching the label
  • But first, Node has to be labelled. 
  • Within the pod definition spec.nodeSelector is the property to map a pod to a node
  • With node selector, you can only have a simple key-value selection
  • There are no options for advanced selectors like label in certain values, or label not-in a value
pod-definition.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
    name: myapp-pod
    labels:
        app: myapp

spec:
    containers:
    - name: nginx-container
      image: nginx

    nodeSelector:
        size: Large
  
kubectl label node <node-name> <label-key>=<label-value> 
-> Set a node label with key value pair

kubectl label node node01 size=Large 
-> Set node01 label size to Large value

Kubernetes: 6. Imperative Commands

Imperative commands are useful in quickly creating the resources on Kubernetes kubectl --dry-run -> When created with this option, Kubernetes just validates the definition and does not actually create the resource -o=yaml -> Gets the output in YAML format kubectl run nginx-pod --image=nginx:alpine  -> Create a pod with name nginx-pod and image nginx:alpine kubectl run httpd --image=httpd:alpine  -> By default, run implies run-a-pod kubectl run redis --image=redis:alpine --labels=tier=db  -> Create a pod with name redis and image redis:alpine and labels set to tier=db kubectl run custom-nginx --image=nginx --port=8080  -> Create a pod with name custom-nginx and image nginx to run on port 8080 kubectl expose pod redis --port=6379 --name=redis-service  -> Create a service with name redis-service to expose pod named redis on service-port 6379 kubectl create deployment webapp --image=kodekloud/webapp-color --replicas=3  -> Create a depl...

Kubernetes: 19. Configure Application

Configuring application consists of Configuring commands and arguments on applications Configuring environment variables Configuring secrets Docker Commands docker run ubuntu  -> Runs ubuntu container and exit, container CMD is set to [bash], so the container quitely exits docker run ubuntu echo "Hello World" -> Runs ubuntu container, prints "Hello World" exits quitely. To update the default settings, create your own image from the base image lets call this ubuntu-sleeper image FROM ubuntu CMD sleep 5 CMD can also be mentioned in the JSON format like CMD ["sleep", "5"] Note that with JSON format the first element should always be the command to execute,  for eg, it CANNOT be ["sleep 5"] Run build the new ubuntu-sleeper image and run the new image docker build -t ubuntu-sleeper .  -> Build the image docker run ubuntu-sleeper -> Run the new image So the new image will launch ubuntu container, sleep for 5 seconds and quitely ex...

underscore.js extend

underscore.js is a javascript utility library. Let us understand the extend method of this very useful library. _.extend is for extending a given object with all the properties of the passed-in object(s) Here is an example, we have three objects aObj, bObj, cObj and we want to combine them into single object. Using _.extend is a simple way of combining these objects. And before trying out the example don't forget to import the underscore.js library Now access the source code of underscore.js and look for the extend method. This is how it looks like This uses functional programming style.  createAssigner takes two inputs and returns a function. The two inputs are (1) keysFunc  (2) defaults Since it is returning a function, so a closure is formed, and the returned function remembers the two inputs Looking at the source code from the line (keys = keysFunc(source)) it is evident that keysFunc is a function itself. ...
