dispatch

README

Dispatch is a framework for deploying and managing serverless style applications. The intent is a framework which enables developers to build applications which are defined by functions which handle business logic and services which provide all other functionality:

• State (Databases)
• Messaging/Eventing (Queues)
• Ingress (Api-Gateways)
• Etc.

Our goal is to provide a substrate which can be built upon and extended to serve as a framework for serverless applications. Additionally, the framework must provide tools and features which aid the developer in building, debugging and maintaining their serverless application.

Architecture

The diagram below illustrates the different components which make up the Dispatch project:

Installation

Installing Dispatch is easy once you have a compatible Kubernetes installation. For instance, to deploy on minikube:

1. Fetch the IP address of minikube as this will be used the host for dispatch services.

export DISPATCH_HOST=$(minikube ip)

1. Configure the installation:

$ cat << EOF > config.yaml
apiGateway:
  host: $DISPATCH_HOST
dispatch:
  host: $DISPATCH_HOST
  debug: true
  skipAuth: true
EOF

1. Install Dispatch:

$ dispatch install --file config.yaml
