Running Dapr with a Kubernetes Job

Kubernetes Job

The Dapr sidecar is designed to be a long running process, in the context of a Kubernetes Job this behaviour can block your job completion. To address this issue the Dapr sidecar has an endpoint to the sidecar.

When a job is finished without calling Shutdown, your job will be in a NotReady state with only the daprd container running endlessly.

Be sure to use the POST HTTP verb when calling the shutdown HTTP API.

import (
    "context"
    "log"
    dapr "github.com/dapr/go-sdk/client"
)
func main() {
  client, err := dapr.NewClient()
    log.Panic(err)
  }
  defer client.Close()
  defer client.Shutdown()
  // Job
