node-express

This is a starter ExpressJs project, you can run it as a standalone app using npm run server in the root of the project. The server will be listening to request on port 3000, so you can test the server in a browser accessing http://localhost:3000 or via cURL.

Before running the command npm run server you need to run npm install to install the dependencies

Deploying to Kubernetes

NOTE: The provided config/workload.yaml file uses the Git URL for this sample. When you want to modify the source, you must push the code to your own Git repository and then update the spec.source.git information in the config/workload.yaml file.

Deploying to Kubernetes as a TAP workload with Tanzu CLI

When you are done developing your app, you can simply deploy it using:

tanzu apps workload apply -f config/workload.yaml

If you would like deploy the code from your local working directory you can use the following command:

tanzu apps workload create node-express -f config/workload.yaml \
  --local-path . \
  --type web

Accessing the app deployed to your cluster

If you don't have curl installed it can be installed using downloads here: https://curl.se/download.html

Determine the URL to use for the accessing the app by running:

tanzu apps workload get node-express

To access the deployed app open the URL shown in your browser.

This depends on the TAP installation having DNS configured for the Knative ingress.
