Requirement

If you use Ubuntu desktop, you don't need to install dnsmasq due to it is already installed.

Usage

Choose the script file for your environment.

# macOS
alias minikube=/path/to/minikube-ingress-dns/minikube-ingress-dns-macos

# Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
alias minikube=/path/to/minikube-ingress-dns/minikube-ingress-dns-ubuntu16

# Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
alias minikube=/path/to/minikube-ingress-dns/minikube-ingress-dns-ubuntu14

The default base domain for Ingress LB is minikube.local. For example, if you create an ingress object like the following, you can access http://nginx.minikube.local/ directly with curl, browser or something.

$ minikube start
$ minikube addons enable ingress
$ kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx
$ kubectl expose deploy nginx --port=80 --target-port=80
$ cat <<EOL | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: nginx.minikube.local
spec:
  rules:
  - host: nginx.minikube.local
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /
        pathType: Prefix
        backend:
          service:
            name: nginx
            port:
              number: 80
EOL
$ curl http://nginx.minikube.local/

If you'd like to change the base domain from minikube.local, set the new domain name to the MINIKUBE_INGRESS_DNS_DOMAIN environment variable.

export MINIKUBE_INGRESS_DNS_DOMAIN="minikube.local"
