6.5. Verifying your serverless application deployment
To verify that your serverless application has been deployed successfully, you must get the application URL created by Knative, and then send a request to that URL and observe the output.
OpenShift Serverless supports the use of both HTTP and HTTPS URLs; however the output from oc get ksvc <service_name> always prints URLs using the http:// format.
Procedure
Find the application URL by entering:
$ oc get ksvc <service_name>Example output
NAME URL LATESTCREATED LATESTREADY READY REASON hello http://hello-default.example.com hello-4wsd2 hello-4wsd2 TrueMake a request to your cluster and observe the output.
Example HTTP request
$ curl http://hello-default.example.comExample HTTPS request
$ curl https://hello-default.example.comExample output
Hello Serverless!Optional. If you receive an error relating to a self-signed certificate in the certificate chain, you can add the
--insecureflag to the curl command to ignore the error.重要Self-signed certificates must not be used in a production deployment. This method is only for testing purposes.
Example command
$ curl https://hello-default.example.com --insecureExample output
Hello Serverless!Optional. If your OpenShift Container Platform cluster is configured with a certificate that is signed by a certificate authority (CA) but not yet globally configured for your system, you can specify this with the curl command. The path to the certificate can be passed to the curl command by using the
--cacertflag.Example command
$ curl https://hello-default.example.com --cacert <file>Example output
Hello Serverless!
