1. Implementing the Adapter Pattern
The adapter pattern helps with providing a simplified, homogenized view of an application running within a container. For example, we could stand up another container that unifies the log output of the application container. As a result, other monitoring tools can rely on a standardized view of the log output without having to transform it into an expected format.
- Create a new Pod in a YAML file named
adapter.yaml
. The Pod declares two containers. The container app uses the imagebusybox
and runs the commandwhile true; do echo "$(date) | $(du -sh ~)" >> /var/logs/diskspace.txt; sleep 5; done;
. The adapter container transformer uses the image busybox and runs the commandsleep 20; while true; do while read LINE; do echo "$LINE" | cut -f2 -d"|" >> $(date +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S)-transformed.txt; done < /var/logs/diskspace.txt; sleep 20; done;
to strip the log output off the date for later consumption my a monitoring tool. Be aware that the logic does not handle corner cases (e.g. automatically deleting old entries) and would look different in production systems - Before creating the Pod, define an
emptyDir
volume. Mount the volume in both containers with the path/var/logs
. - Create the Pod, log into the container transformer. The current directory should continuously write a new file every 20 seconds.
答案:
kubectl run adapter --image=busybox --restart=Never -o yaml --dry-run -- /bin/sh -c 'while true; do echo "$(date) | $(du -sh ~)" >> /var/logs/diskspace.txt; sleep 5; done;' > adapter.yaml
The final Pod YAML file should look something like this:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
creationTimestamp: null
name: adapter
spec:
volumes:
- name: config-volume
emptyDir: {}
containers:
- args:
- /bin/sh
- -c
- 'while true; do echo "$(date) | $(du -sh ~)" >> /var/logs/diskspace.txt; sleep 5; done;'
image: busybox
name: app
volumeMounts:
- name: config-volume
mountPath: /var/logs
resources: {}
- image: busybox
name: transformer
args:
- /bin/sh
- -c
- 'sleep 20; while true; do while read LINE; do echo "$LINE" | cut -f2 -d"|" >> $(date +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S)-transformed.txt; done < /var/logs/diskspace.txt; sleep 20; done;'
volumeMounts:
- name: config-volume
mountPath: /var/logs
dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
restartPolicy: Never
