OpenFaaS is a platform that allows users to build, deploy, and operate serverless functions in containers. The installation process is quite straightforward and can be completed in just a few steps.
In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing OpenFaaS on Pop!_OS Latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:
First, you need to install the faas-cli, which is a command-line tool for interacting with OpenFaaS.
You can install it using the following command:
$ curl -sL https://cli.openfaas.com | sudo sh
Next, you need to deploy OpenFaaS to Kubernetes. To do this, run the following command:
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openfaas/faas-netes/master/namespaces.yml
This will create the necessary namespaces for OpenFaaS.
Then, deploy OpenFaaS using the following commands:
$ sudo faas-cli deploy -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openfaas/faas-netes/master/hack/docker-compose.yaml
This command will deploy OpenFaaS to Kubernetes.
Once OpenFaaS is deployed, you can start using it. You can list the available functions by running the following command:
$ faas-cli list
This will display a list of functions that you can deploy to OpenFaaS.
To deploy a function, you can use the following command:
$ faas-cli deploy -f <function-name>.yml
Replace <function-name> with the name of the function that you want to deploy.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed OpenFaaS on Pop!_OS Latest. You can now start deploying your own serverless functions to OpenFaaS. With OpenFaaS, you can easily build, deploy, and operate scalable and high-performing functions.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
