Running OpenFaaS on Windows 10 - using Docker Swarm on Hyper-V

README.md

docker-machine create --driver hyperv --hyperv-virtual-switch ExternalSwitch registry
docker-machine ssh registry docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --restart=always --name registry registry:2
docker-machine ls # get the ip address of the VM, in this case 10.10.10.197
docker-machine create --driver hyperv --hyperv-virtual-switch ExternalSwitch --engine-insecure-registry 10.10.10.197:5000 swarm-1
docker-machine create --driver hyperv --hyperv-virtual-switch ExternalSwitch --engine-insecure-registry 10.10.10.197:5000 swarm-2
docker-machine create --driver hyperv --hyperv-virtual-switch ExternalSwitch --engine-insecure-registry 10.10.10.197:5000 swarm-3
docker-machine ssh swarm-1 docker swarm init  # copy the swarm join command to run on each other hose
docker-machine ssh swarm-2 docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-mysecrettoken 10.10.10.198:2377
docker-machine ssh swarm-3 docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-mysecrettoken 10.10.10.198:2377

& "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker-machine.exe" env swarm-1 | Invoke-Expression

In your functions set the function name so that it begins with the address of the registry, for example:

provider:
  name: faas
  gateway: http://10.10.10.198:8080  # use the IP address of the host swarm-1
  network: "func_functions"       # this is optional and defaults to func_functions

  ruby-echo:
    lang: ruby
    handler: ./sample/ruby-echo
    image: 10.10.10.197:5000/ruby-echo # use the IP of the local registry

That's a very cool example. Would make a good blog post!

Very cool!

You can get the IP address with

$ip = $(docker-machine ip registry)

and use it for the next commands. PowerShell of course.

So docker-machine works in parallel to Docker4Windows?
I tried that recently, but had errors with the NAT network.

I've not noticed any errors @StefanScherer, I was actually running OpenFaaS on the swarm, and connecting to it from Portainer running in the regular Docker instance.
