Common Deployment Tasks

The following list is a summary of steps to follow to perform specific AdvantEDGE tasks.
Requires Runtime & Build environment setup + git clone https://github.com/InterDigitalInc/AdvantEDGE.git

Bootstrapping (first time & after repo upgrade)

NoDescriptionCommand
1./go-apps/meepctl/install.shBuild & install meepctl CLI tool
2meepctl config ip <your-ip>Configure meepctl
3meepctl config gitdir <path-to-git>Configure meepctl
4meepctl deploy depDeploy dependencies pods
5meepctl build allBuild core pods
6meepctl dockerize allGenerate core pod containers
7meepctl deploy coreDeploy platform core pods
  • skip #2/3 on version change
  • skip #1/2/3 on restart all
  • skip #1/2/3/4 on recompile & restart without changing deps

Shutting down

NoDescriptionCommand
1meepctl delete coreDeletes platform core pods
2meepctl delete depDeletes dependencies pods

Manually cleaning un-terminated sandbox and scenario pods after deleting platform

helm ls --short -n <sandbox-name> | xargs -L1 helm uninstall -n <sandbox-name>

Manually cleaning only un-terminated scenario pods after deleting platform

helm ls -A --short | grep <scenario-name> | xargs -L1 helm uninstall -n <sandbox-name>

Deployment Configuration

AdvantEDGE deployments may be configured by changing the default deployment settings in the ~/AdvantEDGE/.meepctl-repocfg.yaml configuration file.

The following table describes the configurable deployment parameters and their default values.

Dependency microservices and Core & Sandbox Subsystem microservices may also be modified using this configuration file. For example, specific microservices can be excluded from a platform build or deployment if not required.

NOTE: Modifying microservice configuration is only recommended for advanced platform users
