I have an Openwhisk cluster deployed in Kubernetes cluster using[1], and for my application, I want to access the internal couchDB database
From within the function
From an external location. I have added the svc list below
I tried several things but i can't seem to access the couchDB database. I changed the couchDB service from ClusterIp to NodePort. Any help with the following will be greatly appreciated. Let's assume the IP of the node is 123.45.67.89
What host:port to use from within a function? I thought it would be 123.45.67.89:30641 but it didn't work,
What host:port to use from the outside (like a curl call)?
Best Regards Pulasthi,

I was able to resolve this issue, The issue was not with the host:port value. The deployment scripts in [1] create a network policy for CouchDB which restricts access to the CouchDB instance. Once I removed the network policy "couchdb-netpol" the issue was resolved and I could access the CouchDB instance. By default, the deployment in [1] creates the CouchDB service as a ClusterIP you need to change it to NodePort. Once that is done the following host:port allows acccess to the database when you remove or properly configure the "couchdb-netpol" network policy.
