Provide sidecar container for k8 usage (and document it)

[WtfJoke]

I made tests using kubernetes and chaos monkey can be used that way. In order to use that we should publish a sidecar container for public use and publish it in docker hub/github container registry

See example

Sidecars are useful when you can't include it as a library. Is that the goal? To use chaosmonkey features with node or go apps?

Yes, the current extjar would be provided as as a docker image which can be used as a sidecar for an existing spring application.

Usecase:
Imagine somebody has their app deployed in a k8 cluster and wants to use chaos monkey, but dont want to include it as dependency. They would need to do it with an external jar. However to do that they need that jar in a container. So theywould need to build a container which includes the chaos monkey ext jar, it would be better if we provide it and they can use it.

I dont know what you mean with this (we can only assault spring boot apps with jvm languages) 😅

Oh I see. The sidecar isn't a process that is used, just a mechanism to add files (the jar)

Which is why I was confused. Thanks for clarifying it for me.
