How to use Kubeinvaders on Minikube

Prerequisites

• Minikube
• kubectl
• Helm
• Virtualization Software compatible with Minikube (Parallels, VirtualBox, Hyperkit ecc).

What we are going to install in our cluster

• Kubeinvasers 1.9.6
• Ingress addons for Minikube
• x1 Deployment, x1 ReplicaSet, x10 nginx pods in namesapce ns-1

Walkthrough

Setup your Minikube cluster

make init-cluster

If no hypervisor is specified within the Makefile, the default will be VirtualBox. Check this link for a complete list of Minikube-compatible drivers Within the makefile, you can specify other configurations as well:

• Number of nodes
• RAM
• CPU
• Kubernetes version

Setup Kubeinvaders, Ingress addons and Nginx deployment

make setup-cluster

How to reach the applications within the cluster

The two applications can be accessed at the following paths:

• kubeinvaders.local
• nginx.local

However, to reach them, you need to add these two entries to the /etc/hosts file, associating these DNS names with the output obtained from the “minikube ip” command.

Run

minikube ip

and add the following entries to the /etc/hosts file:

<your_minikube_ip> kubeinvaders.local
<your_minikube_ip> nginx.local
