Scale applications based on MongoDB queries.
Trigger Specification
This specification describes the mongodb trigger that scales based on result of MongoDB query.
triggers:
- type: mongodb
metadata:
# name of an environment variable containing a valid MongoDB connection string
connectionStringFromEnv: MongoDB_CONNECTION_STRING
# Required: database name
dbName: "test"
# Required: collection name
collection: "test_collection"
# Required: query expr, used by filter data
query: '{"region":"eu-1","state":"running","plan":"planA"}'
# Required: according to the number of query result, to scale the TargetRef
queryValue: "1"
# Optional: according to the number of query result, the scaler is active
activationQueryValue: "1"
# Optional: The generated metric name would be mongodb-global-metric. Here mongodb- use as a prefix for metric name
metricName: "global-metric"
Alternatively, you can configure connection parameters explicitly instead of providing a connection string:
triggers:
- type: mongodb
metadata:
# host name of the MongoDB server. Example of mongodb service: "mongodb-svc.<namespace>.svc.cluster.local"
host: mongodb-svc.default.svc.cluster.local
# port number of the MongoDB server.
port: "27017"
# username credential for connecting to the MongoDB server
username: test_user
# name of an environment variable containing a valid password for connecting to the MongoDB server
passwordFromEnv: MongoDB_Password
# Required: database name
dbName: "test"
# Required: collection name
collection: "test_collection"
# Required: query expr, used by filter data
query: '{"region":"eu-1","state":"running","plan":"planA"}'
# Required: according to the number of query result, to scale the TargetRef
queryValue: "1"
# Optional: according to the number of query result, the scaler is active
activationQueryValue: "1"
# Optional: The generated metric name would be mongodb-global-metric. Here mongodb- use as a prefix for metric name.
metricName: "global-metric"
NOTE: If metricName is not set, then one is generated based on trigger index and the
collection, for example: s0-mongodb-test_collection
Parameter list:
The mongodb trigger always requires the following information:
dbName- Name of the database.collection- Name of the collection.query- A MongoDB query that should return single numeric value.queryValue- A threshold that will define when scaling should occur.activationQueryValue- Target value for activating the scaler. Learn more about activation here.(Default:0, Optional)
To connect to the MongoDB server, you can provide either:
connectionStringFromEnv- The name of an environment variable containing a valid MongoDB connection string for connecting to the MongoDB server.
Or provide more detailed connection parameters explicitly (a connection string will be generated for you at runtime):
host- The host name of the MongoDB server.port- The port number of the MongoDB server.username- Username to authenticate with to MongoDB database.passwordFromEnv- The name of an environment variable containing the password credential for connecting to the MongoDB server.
When configuring with a connection string, you can use this URL format:
mongodb://<username>:<password>@mongodb-svc.<namespace>.svc.cluster.local:27017/<database_name>
You can also optionally assign a name to the metric using the metricName value. If not specified, the metricName will be generated automatically based on trigger index and collection name. For example: s1-mongodb-test_collection. The value will be prefixed with s{triggerIndex}-mongodb- .
Authentication Parameters
As an alternative to environment variables, You can authenticate with the MongoDB server by using connection string or password authentication via TriggerAuthentication or ClusterTriggerAuthentication configuration.
Connection String Authentication:
connectionString- Connection string for MongoDB server.
Password Authentication:
host- The host name of the MongoDB server.port- The port number of the MongoDB server.username- Username to authenticate with to MongoDB database.password- Password for the configured user to login to MongoDB server.dbName- Name of the database.
Example
Here is an example of how to deploy a scaled Job with the MongoDB scale trigger which uses TriggerAuthentication.
