client kn service create with `--log-http` is pending for a long time

What version of Knative Client?

$ ./kn version Version: v20191106-local-f1f6cfb-dirty Build Date: 2019-11-06 06:51:12 Git Revision: f1f6cfb Supported APIs:

serving.knative.dev/v1alpha1 (knative-serving v0.10.0)

What version of Knative Serving running on your cluster?

I don't know

Expected Behavior

./kn service create --image docker.io/ibmcom/fib-knative fib-knative --log-http could response correctly and print http logs to standard output.

Actual Behavior

./kn service create --image docker.io/ibmcom/fib-knative fib-knative --log-http keeps pending for 10 minutes and response a timeout error. But, ./kn service create --image docker.io/ibmcom/fib-knative fib-knative could response correctly.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

Call ./kn service create --image docker.io/ibmcom/fib-knative fib-knative --log-http, it keeps pending and response timeout after 10 minutes.

$ ./kn service create --image docker.io/ibmcom/fib-knative fib-knative --log-http

There is an issue with --log-http and event streams. Will go into mores details later (but its about that the logging will consume the whole response stream first, so that events are not distributed internally), but jusr at a conference, will be back at knative work on friday.

just hit this today too....

Dec 05 '19 23:12 duglin

The issue is that for logging with http, the HTTP response body is consumed to print out, but when in a watch situation, the response is a stream, so that logging only finished when the stream is finished. Which is far too late. Logging needs to be adapted, probably skipping to print out the response body and concentrating on headers and other meta info.

Dec 08 '19 15:12 rhuss

Alternatively instead of tweaking how logging works we could change the hanging get to polling at: https://github.com/knative/client/blob/963788b7309ec3d538349222bad7b10403f9c134/pkg/wait/poll_watcher.go#L70-L78 if the --log-http flag was provided

Polling should be only the second choice, for performance reasons (but is required on Google Cloud Run AFAIU). So we need to deal with this general way how watches work in K8s.
