# Hello World - Dart sample
A simple web app written in the [Dart](www.dartlang.org) programming language
that you can use for testing. It reads in the env variable `TARGET` and prints
`"Hello $TARGET"`. If `TARGET` is not specified, it will use `"World"` as `TARGET`.
## Prerequisites
* A Kubernetes cluster with Knative installed. Follow the
[installation instructions](https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/install/README.md)
if you need to create one.
* [Docker](https://www.docker.com) installed and running on your local machine,
and a Docker Hub account configured (we'll use it for a container registry).
* [dart-sdk](https://www.dartlang.org/tools/sdk#install) installed and configured
if you want to run the program locally.
## Recreating the sample code
While you can clone all of the code from this directory, it is useful to know how
to build a hello world Dart application step-by-step. This application can be
created using the following instructions.
1. Create a new directory and write `pubspec.yaml` as follows:
```yaml
name: hello_world_dart
private: True # let's not accidentally publish this to pub.dartlang.org
description: >-
Hello world server example in dart.
dependencies:
shelf: ^0.7.3
environment:
sdk: '>=2.0.0 <3.0.0'
```
2. If you want to run locally, install dependencies. If you only want to run in
Docker or Knative, you can skip this step.
```shell
pub get
```
3. Create a new file `bin/main.dart` and write the following code:
```dart
import 'dart:io';
import 'package:shelf/shelf.dart';
import 'package:shelf/shelf_io.dart';
void main() {
// Find port to listen on from environment variable.
var port = int.tryParse(Platform.environment['PORT']);
// Read $TARGET from environment variable.
var target = Platform.environment['TARGET'] ?? 'World';
// Create handler.
var handler = Pipeline().addMiddleware(logRequests()).addHandler((request) {
return Response.ok('Hello $target');
});
// Serve handler on given port.
serve(handler, InternetAddress.anyIPv4, port).then((server) {
print('Serving at http://${server.address.host}:${server.port}');
});
}
```
4. Create a new file named `Dockerfile`, this file defines instructions for
dockerizing your applications, for dart apps this can be done as follows:
```Dockerfile
FROM google/dart-runtime
```
5. Create a new file, `service.yaml` and copy the following service definition
into the file. Make sure to replace `{username}` with your Docker Hub username.
```yaml
apiVersion: serving.knative.dev/v1alpha1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: helloworld-dart
namespace: default
spec:
runLatest:
configuration:
revisionTemplate:
spec:
container:
image: docker.io/{username}/helloworld-dart
env:
- name: TARGET
value: "Dart Sample v1"
```
## Building and deploying the sample
Once you have recreated the sample code files (or used the files in the sample
folder) you're ready to build and deploy the sample app.
1. Use Docker to build the sample code into a container. To build and push with
Docker Hub, run these commands replacing `{username}` with your
Docker Hub username:
```shell
# Build the container on your local machine
docker build -t {username}/helloworld-dart .
# Push the container to docker registry
docker push {username}/helloworld-dart
```
1. After the build has completed and the container is pushed to docker hub, you
can deploy the app into your cluster. Ensure that the container image value
in `service.yaml` matches the container you built in
the previous step. Apply the configuration using `kubectl`:
```shell
kubectl apply --filename service.yaml
```
1. Now that your service is created, Knative will perform the following steps:
* Create a new immutable revision for this version of the app.
* Network programming to create a route, ingress, service, and load balance for your app.
* Automatically scale your pods up and down (including to zero active pods).
1. To find the IP address for your service, use
`kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway --namespace istio-system` to get the ingress IP for your
cluster. If your cluster is new, it may take sometime for the service to get asssigned
an external IP address.
```shell
kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway --namespace istio-system
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
knative-ingressgateway LoadBalancer 10.23.247.74 35.203.155.229 80:32380/TCP,443:32390/TCP,32400:32400/TCP 2d
```
1. To find the URL for your service, use
```
kubectl get ksvc helloworld-dart --output=custom-columns=NAME:.metadata.name,DOMAIN:.status.domain
NAME DOMAIN
helloworld-dart helloworld-dart.default.example.com
```
1. Now you can make a request to your app to see the result. Replace
`{IP_ADDRESS}` with the address you see returned in the previous step.
```shell
curl -H "Host: helloworld-dart.default.example.com" http://{IP_ADDRESS}
Hello Dart Sample v1
```
## Removing the sample app deployment
To remove the sample app from your cluster, delete the service record:
```shell
kubectl delete --filename service.yaml
```
