Installation

This document describes how to install Function Mesh based on your application in Kubernetes.

Install Function Mesh

This section describes how to install Function Mesh through the install.sh script or through the Helm.

Prerequisites

Before installing Function Mesh, ensure to perform the following operations.

Install Function Mesh through install.sh script

This example shows how to use the install.sh command to install Function Mesh on your laptop (Linux or Mac OS), including a local kind cluster, all the Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs), required service account configuration, and Function Mesh components.

curl -sSL https://github.com/streamnative/function-mesh/releases/download/v0.1.8/install.sh | bash

After executing the above command, you should be able to see the output indicating that the Function Mesh pod is up and running. For details, see verify installation.

Note

The install.sh command is suitable for trying Function Mesh out. If you want to deploy Function Mesh in production or other mission-critical scenarios, it is recommended to install Function Mesh through Helm.

Install Function Mesh through Helm

This example shows how to install Function Mesh through Helm.

Note

  • Before installation, ensure that Helm v3 is installed properly.
  • For the use of kubectl commands, see kubectl command reference.
  1. Clone the StreamNative Function Mesh repository.

    git clone https://github.com/streamnative/function-mesh.git
    cd function-mesh
  2. Create the custom resource type.

    curl -sSL https://github.com/streamnative/function-mesh/releases/download/v0.1.8/crd.yaml | kubectl create -f -
  3. Install the Function Mesh Operator.

    1. Create a Kubernetes namespace function-mesh. If no Kubernetes namespace is specified, the default namespace is used.

      kubectl create ns function-mesh
    2. Install Function Mesh Operator.

      helm install function-mesh --values charts/function-mesh-operator/values.yaml charts/function-mesh-operator --namespace=function-mesh
  4. Check whether Function Mesh is installed successfully.

    kubectl get pods -l app.kubernetes.io/component=controller-manager

    Output

    NAME                                READY   STATUS      RESTARTS   AGE
    function-mesh-controller-manager-696f6467c9-mbstr 1/1 Running 0 77s

Verify installation

  • This example shows how to verify whether Function Mesh is installed successfully.

    kubectl get pods -l app.kubernetes.io/component=controller-manager

    Output

    NAME                                READY   STATUS      RESTARTS   AGE
    function-mesh-controller-manager-696f6467c9-mbstr 1/1 Running 0 77s
  • This example shows how to verify whether Function Mesh can run properly.

    After installing the Function Mesh Operator and deploying a Pulsar cluster, you can submit a sample CRD to create Pulsar Functions, source, sink, or Function Mesh. In this example, a CRD is submitted to the Pulsar cluster for creating a Pulsar Function. You can also submit other CRDs under the ./config/samples directory.

    1. Submit a sample CRD to the Pulsar cluster.

      kubectl apply -f config/samples/compute_v1alpha1_function.yaml
    2. Verify your submission with the kubectl command, and you can see that the Function pod is running.

      kubectl get all
      NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
      pod/function-sample-0 1/1 Running 0 77s

Uninstall Function Mesh

Use the following command to uninstall Function Mesh through Helm.

helm delete function-mesh
