PortSpec

The PortSpec constructor creates a PortSpec object that encapsulates information pertaining to a port.

port_spec = PortSpec(
# The port number which we want to expose
# MANDATORY
number = 3000,

# Transport protocol for the port (can be either "TCP" or "UDP")
# OPTIONAL (DEFAULT:"TCP")
transport_protocol = "TCP",

# Application protocol for the port that will be displayed in front of URLs containing the port
# For example:
# "http" to get a URL of "http://..."
# "postgresql" to get a URL of "postgresql://..."
# OPTIONAL (DEFAULT:"http")
application_protocol = "http",

# Kurtosis will automatically perform a check to ensure all declared UDP and TCP ports are open and ready for traffic and connections upon startup.
# You may specify a custom wait timeout duration or disable the feature entirely.
# You may specify a custom wait timeout duration with a string:
# wait = "2m"
# Or, you can disable this feature by setting the value to None:
# wait = None
# The feature is enabled by default with a default timeout of 15s
# OPTIONAL (DEFAULT:"15s")
wait = "4s"
)

The above constructor returns a PortSpec object that defines information about a port for use in add_service.

The wait field represents the timeout duration that Kurtosis will use when checking whether or not a service's declared UDP or TCP port are open and ready for traffic and connections upon startup. This is the default way to perform a readiness check using Kurtosis. However, there are other ways to perform a readiness check. Specifically, you can also use ServiceConfig.ReadyConditions to check if a service is ready with a a REST call, or you can use the Wait instruction if you need to perform a one-off readiness check after service startup.
