2.2. Deploying a sample service

Procedure

1. Create a YAML file for the service configuration. In this example, it is called prometheus-example-app.yaml.

2. Fill the file with the configuration for deploying the service:

   apiVersion: v1
   kind: Namespace
   metadata:
     name: ns1
   ---
   apiVersion: apps/v1
   kind: Deployment
   metadata:
     labels:
       app: prometheus-example-app
     name: prometheus-example-app
     namespace: ns1
   spec:
     replicas: 1
     selector:
       matchLabels:
         app: prometheus-example-app
     template:
       metadata:
         labels:
           app: prometheus-example-app
       spec:
         containers:
         - image: quay.io/brancz/prometheus-example-app:v0.2.0
           imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
           name: prometheus-example-app
   ---
   apiVersion: v1
   kind: Service
   metadata:
     labels:
       app: prometheus-example-app
     name: prometheus-example-app
     namespace: ns1
   spec:
     ports:
     - port: 8080
       protocol: TCP
       targetPort: 8080
       name: web
     selector:
       app: prometheus-example-app
     type: ClusterIP

   This configuration deploys a service named prometheus-example-app in the ns1 project. This service exposes the custom version metric.

3. Apply the configuration file to the cluster:

   $ oc apply -f prometheus-example-app.yaml

   It will take some time to deploy the service.

4. You can check that the service is running:

   $ oc -n ns1 get pod

   Example output

   NAME                                      READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
   prometheus-example-app-7857545cb7-sbgwq   1/1       Running   0          81m
