SHA256 checksums are available on the [Releases](https://github.com/up9inc/mizu/releases) page.
### Development (unstable) build
Pick one from the [Releases](https://github.com/up9inc/mizu/releases) page.
## Prerequisites
1. Set `KUBECONFIG` environment variable to your kubernetes configuration. If this is not set, mizu assumes that configuration is at `${HOME}/.kube/config`
2. mizu needs following permissions on your kubernetes cluster to run
```
- apiGroups:
- ""
- apps
resources:
- pods
- services
verbs:
- list
- get
- create
- delete
- apiGroups:
- ""
- apps
resources:
- daemonsets
verbs:
- list
- get
- create
- patch
- delete
```
3. Optionally, for resolving traffic ip to kubernetes service name, mizu needs below permissions
```
- apiGroups:
- ""
- apps
- "rbac.authorization.k8s.io"
resources:
- clusterroles
- clusterrolebindings
- serviceaccounts
verbs:
- get
- create
- delete
```
## How to run
1. Find pod you'd like to tap to in your Kubernetes cluster
2. Run `mizu tap PODNAME` or `mizu tap REGEX`
3. Open browser on `http://localhost:8899` as instructed ..
4. Watch the WebAPI traffic flowing ..
5. Type ^C to stop
## Examples
Run `mizu help` for usage options
To tap specific pod -
```
$ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
front-end-649fc5fd6-kqbtn 2/2 Running 0 7m
..
$ mizu tap front-end-649fc5fd6-kqbtn
+front-end-649fc5fd6-kqbtn
Web interface is now available at http://localhost:8899
^C
```
To tap multiple pods using regex -
```
$ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
carts-66c77f5fbb-fq65r 2/2 Running 0 20m
catalogue-5f4cb7cf5-7zrmn 2/2 Running 0 20m
front-end-649fc5fd6-kqbtn 2/2 Running 0 20m
..
$ mizu tap "^ca.*"
+carts-66c77f5fbb-fq65r
+catalogue-5f4cb7cf5-7zrmn
Web interface is now available at http://localhost:8899
^C
```
