K8S with an API Gateway

This is a proof-of-concept for running managed containers within a kubernetes cluster with Traefik infront.

start kubernetes

minikube start

set docker context (per terminal) so we can use local docker images

eval $(minikube docker-env)

setup minikube tunnel to make sure we get an external ip

minikube tunnel

setup helm

helm init

install traefik with helm (should be able to pass in values with cli using --set)

helm install --values resource-manifests/values.yml stable/traefik

check external ip with the output of the prenumilate step

kubectl get svc ... --namespace default -w

add the external ip to /etc/hosts

...
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  traefik-ui.minikube service-one.minikube service-two.minikube

build the docker containers

cd sa-service-1 && docker build -t sa-service-1 .
cd sa-service-2 && docker build -t sa-service-2 .

create the cluster's deployments, services and ingresses

kubectl apply -f resource-manifests/service-one.yml
kubectl apply -f resource-manifests/service-two.yml

verify

kubectl get all
