Setup

We’re going to be using Puppet to bootstrap Docker, Consul, and Nomad.

1. Login and gain root access

2. Install Puppet for your Ubuntu LTS version. Debian also works but for the sake of this tutorial we are going be to using Ubuntu. The Debian repos can be found here

   16.04 LTS

        wget https://apt.puppetlabs.com/puppet5-release-xenial.deb
        sudo dpkg -i puppet5-release-xenial.deb
        sudo apt update
        sudo apt-get install puppet-agent
   

   14.04 LTS

        wget https://apt.puppetlabs.com/puppet5-release-trusty.deb
        sudo dpkg -i puppet5-release-trusty.deb
        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get install puppet-agent
   

3. Exit the current terminal and start a new one to get puppet in your PATH

4. Clone this repo to your server

5. cd puppet-openfaas-nomad

6. sudo su - && puppet apply --modulepath=modules setup.pp

7. Open [server_ip]:4646 in a browser to view the Nomad web UI

8. Open [server_ip]:8500 in a browser to view the Consul web UI

9. You are now ready to schedule jobs in Nomad

OpenFaaS

With OpenFaaS you can package anything as a serverless function - from Node.js to Golang to CSharp, even binaries like ffmpeg or ImageMagick.

1. Clone this repo on the server
2. Following these instructions will get you up and running in no time
