Question: how do I set an annotation?

[ArieLevs]

Hi,

As part of securing k8s, we set IAM role annotation per pod.
Since function pods are created from the template.yml file there is no option to add IAM role annotation per function.

Expected Behaviour

Have the ability to add annotations to template.yml deployment file

Current Behaviour

template.yml deployment files do not allow annotations pass to function pods

Context

When working with AWS EKS, using IAM roles is needed

Your Environment

• Docker version: 17.06.2-ce
• Kubernetes
• Operating System and version: Amazon Linux 2 (2017.12) (EKS Cluster)

Hi @ArieLevs,

You can set annotations via the stack.yml file, this was released recently. I'd suggest updating to the latest version of faas-netes, the gateway and the CLI. Let us know how you get on.

Cc @ewilde who implemented the feature.

Regards,

Alex

For anyone finding this and using the example above, please not the indentation isn't quite correct, it should be:

provider:
  name: faas
  gateway: http://127.0.0.1:8080

functions:
  slack-responder:
    lang: go
    handler: ./slack-responder
    image: alexellis2/slack-responder:0.1.0
    labels:
      source: git
    annotations:
      git: https://github.com/alexellis/super-pancake-fn.git
      topics: "arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:111122223333:MyTopic,arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:111122223333:My-Second-Topic"

@ArieLevs I'm not sure where you were looking or if this was added after your issue, but the docs are available at this URL: https://docs.openfaas.com/reference/yaml/#function-annotations

Thanks @rgee0 for the example.
