nomad-conversions VS libcurl

Please note that there are no official Nomad jobspecs for either Tracetest or the OTel Demo App, so I went ahead and did the conversions myself from Kubernetes manifests to Nomad jobspecs. You can check out the jobspecs in this repo. If you’re curious as to how I went about the Kubernetes-to-Nomad conversion, you can check out my blog post on this topic. I also have a blog post dedicated to running the OTel Demo App on Nomad. If this tickles your fancy, you can check it out here.

NOTE: You can find the repo with all of the OpenTelemetry Demo App jobspec files here.

Then, in another terminal window, we use curl to hit the endpoint:

Through the Fast Forward program, we give free services and support to open source projects and the nonprofits that support them. We support many of the world’s top programming languages (like Python, Rust, Ruby, and the wonderful Scratch), foundational technologies (cURL, the Linux kernel, Kubernetes, OpenStreetMap), and projects that make the internet better and more fun for everyone (Inkscape, Mastodon, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Terms of Service; Didn’t Read).

From the GitHub Issue itself, the maintainer did end up creating a PR to fix a related issue: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/12983

Also, the bot filed another issue despite the complaints.

This Docker image is designed to support implementing Github Actions with Python. As of version 4.0.0., it starts with the official python docker image as the base which is a Debian OS. It specifically uses python:3-slim to keep the image size down for faster loading of Github Actions that use pyaction. On top of the base, we've installed curl gpg, git, and the GitHub CLI. We added curl and gpg because they are needed to install the GitHub CLI, and they may come in handy anyway (especially curl) when implementing a GitHub Action.
