API Service for a backend MongoDB Database... details are purposely being left vague...

In the process of a rewrite and move to Travis CI

Kubernetes Deployment

Create a giles-secrets.yaml file, which will contain the username/password URI for MongoDB host/cluster

An example is included in the repo, but essentially is something like this:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: giles-v1
  type: Opaque
data:
  mongo_uri: <base64 encoded mongo uri> 
  port: <base64 encoded port>

Encoding something as base64 on Mac/Linux you would echo the string piped to the command base64

echo 'mongodb://mongo:mongo@mongohost:27017/test' | base64

Installing

Installing the two yaml's into kubernetes is then done with the following command:

kubectl create -f giles-secrets.yaml
kubectl create -f giles-deployment.yaml
