Readiness#

An Orchestration is marked as “ready”, when:

  • Its Executor is fully loaded and ready (in the case of a Deployment)

  • All its Executors and Gateway are fully loaded and ready (in the case of a Flow)

After that, an Orchestration is able to process requests.

Client offers an API to query these readiness endpoints. You can do this via the Orchestration directly, via the Client, or via the CLI: You can call is_flow_ready() or is_flow_ready(). It returns True if the Flow is ready, and False if it is not.

Via Orchestration#

from jina import Deployment

dep = Deployment()

with dep:
    print(dep.is_deployment_ready())

print(dep.is_deployment_ready())
True
False
from jina import Flow

f = Flow.add()

with f:
    print(f.is_flow_ready())

print(f.is_flow_ready())
True
False

Via Jina Client#

from jina import Deployment

dep = Deployment(port=12345)

with dep:
    dep.block()
from jina import Client

client = Client(port=12345)
print(client.is_deployment_ready())
True
from jina import Flow

f = Flow(port=12345).add()

with f:
    f.block()
from jina import Client

client = Client(port=12345)
print(client.is_flow_ready())
True

Via CLI#

from jina import Deployment

dep = Deployment(port=12345)

with dep:
    dep.block()

Readiness check via third-party clients#

You can check the status of a Flow using any gRPC/HTTP/WebSockets client, not just via Jina Client.

To see how this works, first instantiate the Flow with its corresponding protocol and block it for serving:

from jina import Deployment
import os

PROTOCOL = 'grpc'  # it could also be http or websocket

os.environ[
    'JINA_LOG_LEVEL'
] = 'DEBUG'  # this way we can check what is the PID of the Executor

dep = Deployment(protocol=PROTOCOL, port=12345)

with dep:
    dep.block()

Using gRPC#

When using grpc, use grpcurl to access the Gateway’s gRPC service that is responsible for reporting the Orchestration status.

docker pull fullstorydev/grpcurl:latest
docker run --network='host' fullstorydev/grpcurl -plaintext 127.0.0.1:12345 jina.JinaGatewayDryRunRPC/dry_run

The error-free output below signifies a correctly running Orchestration:

{}

You can simulate an Executor going offline by killing its process.

kill -9 $EXECUTOR_PID # in this case we can see in the logs that it is 19059

Then by doing the same check, you can see that it returns an error:

docker run --network='host' fullstorydev/grpcurl -plaintext 127.0.0.1:12345 jina.JinaGatewayDryRunRPC/dry_run

Using HTTP or WebSockets#

When using HTTP or WebSockets as the Gateway protocol, use curl to target the /dry_run endpoint and get the status of the Flow.

curl http://localhost:12345/dry_run

Error-free output signifies a correctly running Flow:

{"code":0,"description":"","exception":null}

You can simulate an Executor going offline by killing its process:

kill -9 $EXECUTOR_PID # in this case we can see in the logs that it is 19059

Then by doing the same check, you can see that the call returns an error:

{"code":1,"description":"failed to connect to all addresses |Gateway: Communication error with deployment executor0 at address(es) {'0.0.0.0:12346'}. Head or worker(s) may be down.","exception":{"name":"InternalNetworkError","args":["failed to connect to all addresses |Gateway: Communication error with deployment executor0 at address(es) {'0.0.0.0:12346'}.
