User:NNikkhoui (WMF)/Helmchart Debug Notes

How I debugged local helmcharts (Executed from inside ./local-charts/charts directory )

• minikube start
• helm install {any-name} ./image-suggestion-api
• minikube service image-suggestion-api-{any-name} (Starts up the pod in minikube for browser testing/access!)

After making changes to helmchart and wanting to test again:

• helm uninstall {any-name}
• helm install {any-name} ./image-suggestion-api

Other helpful commands:

• helm install {any-name} ./image-suggestion-api --dry-run --debug (for debugging)
• helm get manifest {any-name} (prints out helm chart)

Test local docker image (not on wmf registry):

• Use minikube's docker daemon
  • eval $(minikube docker-env)
• Build local image with the tag that helm chart looks for
  • blubber .pipeline/blubber.yaml development | docker build --tag docker-registry.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/mediawiki-services-image-suggestion-api --file - .
• Login to docker container as root
  • docker exec -it -u 0 {container-ID} /bin/bash
• Restart docker container in pod
  • docker restart {container-ID}
