In this section, we will use a third party docker image: https://github.com/paulbouwer/hello-kubernetes
# Copy the KD catalog definition deploy/example_catalog/cr-app-centos7.json to deploy/example_catalog/cr-app-hello-world.json and modify it so that it looks as follows:
Copy {
"apiVersion" : "kubedirector.hpe.com/v1beta1" ,
"kind" : "KubeDirectorApp" ,
"metadata" : {
"name" : "hellok8s-paulbouwer"
} ,
"spec" : {
"systemdRequired" : true ,
"defaultEventList" : [ "configure" , "addnodes" , "delnodes" ] ,
"config" : {

"name" : "hello kubernetes" ,
"description" : "hello kubernetes services"
} ,
"distroID" : "paulbouwer/hello-kubernetes:1.8" ,
"version" : "1.8" ,
"configSchemaVersion" : 7 ,
"services" : [
{
"endpoint" : {
"port" : 8080 ,
"isDashboard" : false
} ,
"id" : "http" ,
"label" : {
"name" : "HTTP"
}
}
] ,
"defaultImageRepoTag" : "paulbouwer/hello-kubernetes:1.8" ,
"defaultConfigPackage" : null ,
"roles" : [
{
"cardinality" : "1+" ,
"id" : "hello-kubernetes"
}
]
}
}
Note: The hello world image runs a node service on port 8080 so we are exposing that.

# If you wait for a few minutes, you will see your pod with status CrashLoopBackOff:
Which for me shows:
Copy NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
kdss-w97td-0 0/1 CrashLoopBackOff 6 12m
Let's debug:
Copy kubectl describe pod kdss-w97td-0
For me this returns:

If you inspect the KD application image output:

# If the KubeDirector App Image Authoring wiki page we can find:
Images must have the following utilities installed and available in the standard executables path for the container user: python2, curl, and tar.
It appears that app images also require bash - an issue has been raised for this.
# The solution for me was to fork the github project paulbouwer/hello-kubernetes and update the dockerfile to add these dependencies.
The original Dockerfile is based on alpine:
So we need to run alpine apk commands to install the required packages:
Copy FROM paulbouwer/hello-kubernetes:1.8
USER root
RUN apk update && apk upgrade && apk add bash python2 tar curl
USER node
CMD [ "npm", "start" ]
# The easiest solution for me was to build a new docker image. First lets open a new terminal in the kubedirector lab IDE, then:
Copy git clone https://github.com/snowch/hello-kubernetes
cd hello-kubernetes/
docker build -t localhost:5000/hello-world:0.1 .
docker push localhost:5000/hello-world
Note: if docker push returns an error ensure your local docker registry is running .
# Modify the catalog definition deploy/example_catalog/cr-app-hello-world.json to use your new image
Copy {
...
"defaultImageRepoTag" : "localhost:5000/hello-world:0.1" ,
...
}
# You should now be able to run kubectl apply -f ... to update the catalog image and recreate the cluster and it should now start without any issues.
