Ensure that gcloud config list lists peer2peerpoc as the project.

1. Get credentials for the Kubernetes cluster

    ./value_mesh get-credentials
   

2. Build the Docker image

    ./value_mesh build
   

3. Push the Docker image

    ./value_mesh push
   

4. Deploy to the Kubernetes cluster

    ./value_mesh deploy
   

The version of the Docker image is controlled by the version member is package.json. Building or pushing an image with the same version as an existing image will generate an error. Overwriting an image in an image repository is possible but it is bad practice (like rewriting published history in git). Furthemore, Kubernetes is designed to work with versioned images. Changing the version mentioned in the deployment file causes Kubernetes to deploy new pods. Using unversioned images leads to a more verbose deployment file and more deployment steps since the old pods need to be killed to force and image pull.
