Get up and running with your own faasd installation on your Mac

multipass from Canoncial is like Docker Desktop, but for getting Ubuntu instead of a Docker daemon. It works on MacOS, Linux, and Windows with the same consistent UX. It's not fully open-source, and uses some proprietary add-ons / binaries, but is free to use.

For Linux using Ubuntu, you can install the packages directly, or use sudo snap install multipass --classic and follow this tutorial. For Raspberry Pi, see my tutorial here.

John McCabe has also tested faasd on Windows with multipass, see his tweet.

Use-case:

boomskats

#!/bin/bash
# Command line method for evaluating performance of SAS code 

# In bash, define a function 
notquiteesm() (   $* &>/dev/null &   pid="$!";   trap ':' INT;   echo 'CPU every second';   while sleep 1; do ps --no-headers -o '%cpu' -p "$pid"; done;   kill "$pid"; )

# Create some test SAS code in a .sas file that looks like this
%include '/pub/programs/Allianz-backend/init/bafinit.sas';
%bafinit()
%baf_batch_report(slist=applfram.dholap.clpgpwef);
