2020-01-23 08:00:01 UTC - drholmie: Hey all! Quick question, (I'm probably missing something obvious :sweat_smile:) but anyone know a way to run long running servers on openwhisk? https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579766401001500?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:03:11 UTC - Dominic Kim: How much long actions do you want to invoke? There is a hard limit on each deployment and the default value is 5 mins. <https://github.com/apache/openwhisk/blob/master/common/scala/src/main/resources/application.conf#L371> https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579766591001700?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:09:57 UTC - drholmie: Ah hmm I'm just trying to run some server APIs, but trying to expose the container and sending the request isn't working out too well https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579766997001900?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:11:23 UTC - Dominic Kim: How much time do you want to keep your containers? https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579767083002100?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:11:54 UTC - Dominic Kim: And does it really need to be running to serve your API? https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579767114002300?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:11:55 UTC - drholmie: Although if there's a hard limit then I guess my overall server can't run for too long. Is there some way to store meta data that can be shared among containers? https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579767115002500?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:12:33 UTC - Dominic Kim: Generally the external store is used for that kinds of cases such as S3 in AWS. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579767153002700?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:13:38 UTC - drholmie: Hmmm so no direct openwhisk support for this? Interesting. Alright then! thanks for your help :) https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579767218002900?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:15:12 UTC - Dominic Kim: Generally, if you want to serve your APIs via serverless, we just let them stateless and on-demand instead of running them for a long time. And if your APIs need any states, then we can take advantage of an external store. https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579767312003100?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 08:48:12 UTC - drholmie: Hmm wouldn't it be faster if there could be some form of stateful processing, like maybe a device acting as a volume or db that's closer? In terms of edge processing at least https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579769292003300?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 09:02:54 UTC - drholmie: Actually is this something openwhisk is working on? If so could I help out? Considering I may end up having to do so for my current project :sweat_smile: https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579770174003500?thread_ts=1579766401.001500&cid=C3TPCAQG1 ---- 2020-01-23 18:36:42 UTC - Bilal: I'm deploying Openwhisk on-prem on kubernetes. Looking for documentation on switching from default self-signed certs to our own internal certs. I did get the WSK cli to work without the `-i` flag, but only from the CLI. I just have my cert set on an ingress. I didn't touch anything internal to Openwhisk yet. Is the proper way to set cert via `wks` cli? Some documention I see talks about changing settings in the ansible deployment, but I'm using helm/kube. I notice in the helm charts this file <https://github.com/apache/openwhisk-deploy-kube/blob/cea348821039783d3ca9db7d54b3012026d47c6b/helm/openwhisk/configMapFiles/genCerts/gencerts.sh> first checks `kubectl get secret $NGINX_CERT_SECRET` and if it doesn't find it, then it generates self-signed certs. So am I setting my own certs via kubectl? then the helm chart picks up on that? Or am I overriding a setting somewhere? I assume it's a setting somewhere for nginx but I can't seem to find it https://openwhisk-team.slack.com/archives/C3TPCAQG1/p1579804602009400 ----
