Now you can configure startup, liveness, and readiness probes for your gRPC app without exposing any HTTP endpoint, nor do you need an executable. Kubernetes can natively connect to your your workload via gRPC and query its status. --> 在 Kubernetes 1.24 中，gRPC 探针（probe）功能进入了 beta 阶段，默认情况下可用。 现在，你可以为 gRPC 应用程序配置启动、活跃和就绪探测，而无需公开任何 HTTP 端点， 也不需要可执行文件。Kubernetes 可以通过 gRPC 直接连接到你的工作负载并查询其状态。 <!-- ## Some history It's useful to let the system managing your workload check that the app is healthy, has started OK, and whether the app considers itself good to accept traffic. Before the gRPC support was added, Kubernetes already allowed you to check for health based on running an executable from inside the container image, by making an HTTP request, or by checking whether a TCP connection succeeded. --> ## 一些历史 让管理你的工作负载的系统检查应用程序是否健康、启动是否正常，以及应用程序是否认为自己可以接收流量，是很有用的。 在添加 gRPC 探针支持之前，Kubernetes 已经允许你通过从容器镜像内部运行可执行文件、发出 HTTP 请求或检查 TCP 连接是否成功来检查健康状况。 <!-- For most apps, those checks are enough. If your app provides a gRPC endpoint for a health (or readiness) check, it is easy to repurpose the `exec` probe to use it for gRPC health checking. In the blog article [Health checking gRPC servers on Kubernetes](/blog/2018/10/01/health-checking-grpc-servers-on-kubernetes/), Ahmet Alp Balkan described how you can do that — a mechanism that still works today. --> 对于大多数应用程序来说，这些检查就足够了。如果你的应用程序提供了用于运行状况（或准备就绪）检查的 gRPC 端点，则很容易重新调整 `exec` 探针的用途，将其用于 gRPC 运行状况检查。 在博文[在 Kubernetes 上对 gRPC 服务器进行健康检查](/zh-cn/blog/2018/10/01/health-checking-grpc-servers-on-kubernetes/)中， Ahmet Alp Balkan 描述了如何做到这一点 —— 这种机制至今仍在工作。 <!-- There is a commonly used tool to enable this that was [created](https://github.com/grpc-ecosystem/grpc-health-probe/commit/2df4478982e95c9a57d5fe3f555667f4365c025d) on August 21, 2018, and with the first release at [Sep 19, 2018](https://github.com/grpc-ecosystem/grpc-health-probe/releases/tag/v0.1.0-alpha.1). --> 2018 年 8 月 21 日所[创建](https://github.com/grpc-ecosystem/grpc-health-probe/commit/2df4478982e95c9a57d5fe3f555667f4365c025d)的一种常用工具可以启用此功能， 工具于 [2018 年 9 月 19 日](https://github.com/grpc-ecosystem/grpc-health-probe/releases/tag/v0.1.0-alpha.1)首次发布。 <!-- This approach for gRPC apps health checking is very popular. There are [3,626 Dockerfiles](https://github.com/search?l=Dockerfile&q=grpc_health_probe&type=code) with the `grpc_health_probe` and [6,621 yaml](https://github.com/search?l=YAML&q=grpc_health_probe&type=Code) files that are discovered with the basic search on GitHub (at the moment of writing). This is good indication of the tool popularity and the need to support this natively. --> 这种 gRPC 应用健康检查的方法非常受欢迎。使用 GitHub 上的基本搜索，发现了带有 `grpc_health_probe` 的 [3,626 个 Dockerfile 文件](https://github.com/search?l=Dockerfile&q=grpc_health_probe&type=code)和 [6,621 个 yaml 文件](https://github.com/search?l=YAML&q=grpc_health_probe&type=Code)（在撰写本文时）。 这很好地表明了该工具的受欢迎程度，以及对其本地支持的需求。 <!-- Kubernetes v1.23 introduced an alpha-quality implementation of native support for querying a workload status using gRPC. Because it was an alpha feature, this was disabled by default for the v1.23 release. --> Kubernetes v1.23 引入了一个 alpha 质量的实现，原生支持使用 gRPC 查询工作负载状态。 因为这是一个 alpha 特性，所以在 1.23 版中默认是禁用的。 <!-- ## Using the feature We built gRPC health checking in similar way with other probes and believe it will be [easy to use](/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#define-a-grpc-liveness-probe) if you are familiar with other probe types in Kubernetes. The natively supported health probe has many benefits over the workaround involving `grpc_health_probe` executable. --> ## 使用该功能 我们用与其他探针类似的方式构建了 gRPC 健康检查，相信如果你熟悉 Kubernetes 中的其他探针类型， 它会[很容易使用](/zh-cn/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#define-a-grpc-liveness-probe)。 与涉及 `grpc_health_probe` 可执行文件的解决办法相比，原生支持的健康探针有许多好处。 <!-- With the native gRPC support you don't need to download and carry `10MB` of an additional executable with your image. Exec probes are generally slower than a gRPC call as they require instantiating a new process to run an executable. It also makes the checks less sensible for edge cases when the pod is running at maximum resources and has troubles instantiating new processes. --> 有了原生 gRPC 支持，你不需要在镜像中下载和携带 `10MB` 的额外可执行文件。 Exec 探针通常比 gRPC 调用慢，因为它们需要实例化一个新进程来运行可执行文件。 当 Pod 在最大资源下运行并且在实例化新进程时遇到困难时，它还使得对边界情况的检查变得不那么智能。 <!-- There are a few limitations though. Since configuring a client certificate for probes is hard, services that require client authentication are not supported. The built-in probes are also not checking the server certificates and ignore related problems. --> 不过有一些限制。由于为探针配置客户端证书很难，因此不支持依赖客户端身份验证的服务。 内置探针也不检查服务器证书，并忽略相关问题。 <!-- Built-in checks also cannot be configured to ignore certain types of errors (`grpc_health_probe` returns different exit codes for different errors), and cannot be "chained" to run the health check on multiple services in a single probe. --> 内置检查也不能配置为忽略某些类型的错误（`grpc_health_probe` 针对不同的错误返回不同的退出代码）， 并且不能“串接”以在单个探测中对多个服务运行健康检查。 <!-- But all these limitations are quite standard for gRPC and there are easy workarounds for those. --> 但是所有这些限制对于 gRPC 来说都是相当标准的，并且有简单的解决方法。 <!-- ## Try it for yourself ### Cluster-level setup You can try this feature today. To try native gRPC probes, you can spin up a Kubernetes cluster yourself with the `GRPCContainerProbe` feature gate enabled, there are many [tools available](/docs/tasks/tools/). --> ## 自己试试 ### 集群级设置 你现在可以尝试这个功能。要尝试原生 gRPC 探针，你可以自己启动一个启用了 `GRPCContainerProbe` 特性门控的 Kubernetes 集群，可用的[工具](/zh-cn/docs/tasks/tools/)有很多。 <!-- Since the feature gate `GRPCContainerProbe` is enabled by default in 1.24, many vendors will have this functionality working out of the box. So you may just create an 1.24 cluster on platform of your choice. Some vendors allow to enable alpha features on 1.23 clusters. --> 由于特性门控 `GRPCContainerProbe` 在 1.24 版本中是默认启用的，因此许多供应商支持此功能开箱即用。 因此，你可以在自己选择的平台上创建 1.24 版本集群。一些供应商允许在 1.23 版本集群上启用 alpha 特性。 <!-- For example, at the moment of writing, you can spin up the test cluster on GKE for a quick test. Other vendors may also have similar capabilities, especially if you are reading this blog post long after the Kubernetes 1.24 release. --> 例如，在编写本文时，你可以在 GKE 上运行测试集群来进行快速测试。 其他供应商可能也有类似的功能，尤其是当你在 Kubernetes 1.24 版本发布很久后才阅读这篇博客时。 <!-- On GKE use the following command (note, version is `1.23` and `enable-kubernetes-alpha` are specified). --> 在 GKE 上使用以下命令（注意，版本是 `1.23`，并且指定了 `enable-kubernetes-alpha`）。 ```shell gcloud container clusters create test-grpc  --enable-kubernetes-alpha  --no-enable-autorepair  --no-enable-autoupgrade  --release-channel=rapid  --cluster-version=1.23 ``` <!-- You will also need to configure `kubectl` to access the cluster: --> 你还需要配置 kubectl 来访问集群： ```shell gcloud container clusters get-credentials test-grpc ``` <!-- ### Trying the feature out Let's create the pod to test how gRPC probes work. For this test we will use the `agnhost` image. This is a k8s maintained image with that can be used for all sorts of workload testing. For example, it has a useful [grpc-health-checking](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/b2c5bd2a278288b5ef19e25bf7413ecb872577a4/test/images/agnhost/README.md#grpc-health-checking) module that exposes two ports - one is serving health checking service, another - http port to react on commands `make-serving` and `make-not-serving`. --> ### 试用该功能 让我们创建 Pod 来测试 gRPC 探针是如何工作的。对于这个测试，我们将使用 `agnhost` 镜像。 这是一个 k8s 维护的镜像，可用于各种工作负载测试。例如，它有一个有用的 [grpc-health-checking](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/b2c5bd2a278288b5ef19e25bf7413ecb872577a4/test/images/agnhost/README.md#grpc-health-checking) 模块，该模块暴露了两个端口：一个是提供健康检查服务的端口，另一个是对 `make-serving` 和 `make-not-serving` 命令做出反应的 http 端口。 <!-- Here is an example pod definition. It starts the `grpc-health-checking` module, exposes ports `5000` and `8080`, and configures gRPC readiness probe: --> 下面是一个 Pod 定义示例。它启用 `grpc-health-checking` 模块，暴露 5000 和 8080 端口，并配置 gRPC 就绪探针： ``` yaml --- apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: name: test-grpc spec: containers: - name: agnhost image: k8s.gcr.io/e2e-test-images/agnhost:2.35 command: ["/agnhost", "grpc-health-checking"] ports: - containerPort: 5000 - containerPort: 8080 readinessProbe: grpc: port: 5000 ``` <!-- If the file called `test.yaml`, you can create the pod and check it's status. The pod will be in ready state as indicated by the snippet of the output. --> 如果文件名为 `test.yaml`，你可以用以下命令创建 Pod，并检查它的状态。如输出片段所示，Pod 将处于就绪状态。 ```shell kubectl apply -f test.yaml kubectl describe test-grpc ``` <!-- The output will contain something like this: --> 输出将包含如下内容： ``` Conditions: Type              Status Initialized       True Ready             True ContainersReady   True PodScheduled      True ``` <!-- Now let's change the health checking endpoint status to NOT_SERVING. In order to call the http port of the Pod, let's create a port forward: --> 现在让我们将健康检查端点状态更改为 `NOT_SERVING`。为了调用 Pod 的 http 端口，让我们创建一个端口转发： ```shell kubectl port-forward test-grpc 8080:8080 ``` <!-- You can `curl` to call the command... --> 你可以用 `curl` 来调用这个命令。 ```shell curl http://localhost:8080/make-not-serving ``` <!-- ... and in a few seconds the port status will switch to not ready. --> 几秒钟后，端口状态将切换到未就绪。 ```shell kubectl describe pod test-grpc ``` <!-- The output now will have: --> 现在的输出将显示： ``` Conditions: Type              Status Initialized       True Ready             False ContainersReady   False PodScheduled      True ... Warning  Unhealthy  2s (x6 over 42s)  kubelet            Readiness probe failed: service unhealthy (responded with "NOT_SERVING") ``` <!-- Once it is switched back, in about one second the Pod will get back to ready status: --> 一旦切换回来，Pod 将在大约一秒钟后恢复到就绪状态： ``` bsh curl http://localhost:8080/make-serving kubectl describe test-grpc ``` <!-- The output indicates that the Pod went back to being `Ready`: --> 输出表明 Pod 恢复为 `Ready`： ``` Conditions: Type              Status Initialized       True Ready             True ContainersReady   True PodScheduled      True ``` <!-- This new built-in gRPC health probing on Kubernetes makes implementing a health-check via gRPC much easier than the older approach that relied on using a separate `exec` probe. Read through the official [documentation](/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#define-a-grpc-liveness-probe) to learn more and provide feedback before the feature will be promoted to GA. --> Kubernetes 上这种新的内置 gRPC 健康探测，使得通过 gRPC 实现健康检查比依赖使用额外的 `exec` 探测的旧方法更容易。请阅读官方 [文档](/zh-cn/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#define-a-grpc-liveness-probe) 了解更多信息并在该功能正式发布（GA）之前提供反馈。 <!-- ## Summary Kubernetes is a popular workload orchestration platform and we add features based on feedback and demand. Features like gRPC probes support is a minor improvement that will make life of many app developers easier and apps more resilient. Try it today and give feedback, before the feature went into GA. --> ## 总结 Kubernetes 是一个流行的工作负载编排平台，我们根据反馈和需求添加功能。 像 gRPC 探针支持这样的特性是一个小的改进，它将使许多应用程序开发人员的生活更容易，应用程序更有弹性。 在该功能 GA（正式发布）之前，现在就试试，并给出反馈。 </ins>
