Services

In Kubernetes, there are three general approaches to exposing your application.

• Using a Kubernetes service of type NodePort, which exposes the application on a port across each of your nodes
• Use a Kubernetes service of type LoadBalancer, which creates an external load balancer that points to a Kubernetes service in your cluster
• Use a Kubernetes Ingress Resource

Volumes

hostPath

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: test-pd
spec:
  containers:
  - image: k8s.gcr.io/test-webserver
    name: test-container
    volumeMounts:
    - mountPath: /test-pd
      name: test-volume
  volumes:
  - name: test-volume
    hostPath:
      # directory location on host
      path: /data
      # this field is optional
      type: Directory

Namespaces

1. Get pod details of other namespace using:

kubectl get pods --namespace=dev

2. By below command you will get pod details of default namespace

kubectl get pods

3. You can change default namespace by using:

kubectl config set-context ${kubectl config current-context} --namespace=dev

4. Now for getting pod details of default you need to use

kubectl get pods --namespace=default

5. Get all pods details across namespaces using:

kubectl get pods --all-namespaces

6. Creating a namespace using yml definition:

First, Create a namespace-dev.yml file

apiVersion: v1
Kind: Namespace
metadata:
  name: dev

Now, run the following command:

kubectl create -f namespace-dev.yml

7. Mentioning namespace in pod:

kubectl create -f pod-definition.yml --namespace=dev

8. Get list of system pods using:

kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system

9. You can set resource limits on namespaces, here an example yml for same:

apiVersion: 1
kind: ResourceQuota
metadata:
 namespace: compute-quota
 namespace: dev
spec:
 hard:
  pods: "10"
  requests.cpu: "4"
  requests.memory: 5Gi
  limits.cpu: "10"
  limits.memory: 10Gi

kubectl create -f compute-quota.yml
