TrustBloc Deployment

The repo contains the scripts to deploy the core TrustBloc components.

Prerequisites

  • docker (running) [For Apple Silicon-based Macs, must be v3.6.0 or higher]
  • minikube [v1.28.0 or higher]
  • kubectl [v1.25.8 or higher]
  • GNU bash [v5 or higher] (for macOS, refer to macos setup)
  • GNU make
  • GNU sed

MacOS additional prerequisites

  • Install GNU sed and base64 utils: brew install gnu-sed coreutils bash jq
  • Create directory with symlinks to the used GNU tools
    # mkdir ~/gnu && cd ~/gnu && ln -fs $( which gsed ) sed && ln -fs $( which gbase64 ) base64
    
  • Always prepend the directory with GNU tools to the PATH when using this repo or add this to the bash profile, e.g.:
    # PATH=~/gnu:$PATH
    

For Apple Silicon (arm64) Macs

  • The brew docker-mac-net-connect service installed:
    brew install chipmk/tap/docker-mac-net-connect
    
    Important: See the Running section below to see how to correctly run the service.

For Intel (x86-64) Macs

Minikube installation

macOS - Apple Silicon (arm64)

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/minikube-darwin-arm64
sudo install minikube-darwin-arm64 /usr/local/bin/minikube

macOS - Intel (x86-64)

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/minikube-darwin-amd64
sudo install minikube-darwin-amd64 /usr/local/bin/minikube

linux (x86-64)

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/minikube-linux-amd64
sudo install minikube-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/minikube

Running

Important Extra Step for Apple Silicon Macs

If using an Apple Silicon (arm64)-based Mac, before attempting to start up Sandbox, you will need to start the docker-mac-net-connect brew service with root permissions to ensure that host-to-VM communication works:

sudo brew services start chipmk/tap/docker-mac-net-connect

Note that the service will not be able to connect to Docker without root permissions.

Some Common Commands

Re-create any existing minikube cluster and deploy all trustbloc services into the newly created cluster:

make setup-and-deploy

Deploy all components to the existing kubernetes cluster:

make

Deploy specific components to the existing kubernetes cluster:

make deploy-components COMPONENTS="component1 component2 component3"

Minikube cluster setup:

make minikube-setup

Minikube cluster re-create:

make minikube-reset

Kubernetes Dashboard

Workaround for connection issues when using a VPN on macOS

Certain VPNs (on the host machine) have known issues with port conflicts when using the Hyperkit driver. The Hyperkit driver is used when running on an x86-64 machine.

If disabling the VPN is not possible, one workaround is to use the docker driver along with the docker-mac-net-connect brew service.

To do this:

  1. Install the brew docker-mac-net-connect service: brew install chipmk/tap/docker-mac-net-connect.
  2. Start the service: sudo brew services start chipmk/tap/docker-mac-net-connect. Note: must be started with root permissions.
  3. Change the driver to docker in the minikube_setup.sh script.
