# Flask Frontend Application

This repository contains frontend logic and kubernetes manifests. I have used `minikube` for this project. Installation steps is given in this [gist](https://gist.github.com/aliartiza75/3a34f059de62c7de04727dae6a363ea8) 

# Guidelines for containerizing frontend

* Building image

```bash

sudo docker build -t ht-fe:0.0.1 -f Dockerfile .

```

* To run docker container on host machine

```bash

sudo docker run -e FLASK_ENV=development -e FLASK_HOST_IP=0.0.0.0 -e=FLASK_HOST_PORT=5001 -e BE_IP_ADDR=<172.17.0.4>:5001 -p 9002:5001 ht-fe:0.0.1

```

# Kubernetes deployment Guidelines

Before the creation of frontend deployement, backend deployment and service *must* be created. Guideline for creating the backend deployment and service is given in the `README.md` file of backend respository. Once pre-requisites are completed. Frontend `deployment.yaml` file must be updated by changing the `BE_IP_ADDR` env variable with the ip address of the backend pod.

* To get the ip address of the backend pod, use the command given below:

```bash

# to get pod list

sudo kubectl get pods

# to get the information of the backend pod

sudo kubectl describe pod 

```

* Once the above changes are done, create the frontend deployment.

```bash

sudo kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml

```

* To create the frontend service

```bash

sudo kubectl apply -f htfe_service.yaml

```

* To access the frontend service

```bash

# to get list of services, copy the CLUSTER_IP

sudo kubectl get service

# Open the browser and type this URL. It will display a web page containing two buttons. The Get Date button will call the backend service

http://CLUSTER_IP:5002

```

* To curl the backend service from frontend pod

```bash

# To get pod list.

sudo kubectl get pods

# Copy the pod id of the frontend service and use the command below to enter the pod

sudo kubectl exec -it  /bin/bash

# To curl the backend service

curl -X GET "http://:5001/datetime"

```

# Guidelines for helm charts deployment

* Helm installation guidelines [link](https://helm.sh/docs/install/#installing-the-helm-client)

* Once the helm is installed, use the command given below to install tiller in kubernetes cluster:

```bash

helm init

```

* To create a helm chart folder:

```bash

helm create 

```

* To dry run the helm chart for debugging:

```bash

sudo helm install --dry-run --debug 

```

* To purge a release

```bash

sudo helm del --purge 

```

* To check the status of a release

```bash

sudo helm ls --all 

```

* To search a helm package name

```bash

sudo helm search 

```

* To create a package from the helm charts folder

```bash

sudo helm package 

```

# Important Notes

* Start the minikube cluster in the virtual machine drive in none mode [--vm-driver=none], otherwise services will not be accessible.

* Minikube will pull images from the dockerhub.

* In some cases minikube cluster doesn't work properly, one quick fix is to delete the cluster and restart the minikube cluster.
