Kubernetes manifests
BioDM
features a way to integrate on demand launching of Kubernetes manifests
.
- A
K8sManifest
is tied to a table, and ak8sService
whose mission is simply to call K8sManifest.gen_manifest
method in a postfix way, passing a new table object and the current session and submit that manifest to the cluster.
To implement a new type of instance on demand, this method shall return a valid manifest as a
python dictionary. Moreover a K8sManifest
may indicate a specific namespace into which it shall
be submitted.
This class acts as an extra layer in the regular pipeline. Or depending how you see it, replaces the Controller as manifests are not really expected to expose routes on their own.
You may refer to visualization feature in example
project, that leverages such manifest
in order to implement an extra route at /files/{id}/visualize
.
K8sController
In a future version of BioDM
it is expected that this controller implements a set of joined
administration features for all manifests and their running instances.
