Hands-on with Ingress
You’ll need both of these if you’re following along:
- A Kubernetes cluster
- A clone of the book’s GitHub repo
If your cluster is in the cloud, the examples will create one of your cloud’s internet-facing load balancers, and you’ll work with public IP addresses or public DNS names. If you have a local cluster, such as Docker Desktop, you’ll work with localhost and private IP addresses.
If you don’t already have it, clone the book’s GitHub repo with the following command.
Change into the TheK8sBook/ingress directory and run all commands from there.
You’ll complete all of the following steps:
- Install the NGINX Ingress controller
- Configure an Ingress class
- Deploy a sample app
- Configure an Ingress object
- Inspect the Ingress object
- Configure DNS name resolution
- Test the Ingress
