I was just wondering how to manually set the external endpoint used by the Kubernetes web dashboard.
After creating the namespace kube-system, I ran the following:
kubectl create -f https://rawgit.com/kubernetes/dashboard/master/src/deploy/kubernetes-dashboard.yamlIs there a flag I can use to specify which tcp port to use for external access? As far as I can tell it's just randomly assigning one. I've looked through the documentation but I'm having a hard time finding a solution. Any help would be appreciated.
You can specify the desired port as the nodePort in the yaml spec that you use to create the service. In this case, where the yaml file you linked to defines the service as:
- kind: Service
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
labels:
app: kubernetes-dashboard
kubernetes.io/cluster-service: "true"
name: kubernetes-dashboard
namespace: kube-system
spec:
type: NodePort
ports:
- port: 80
targetPort: 9090
selector:
app: kubernetes-dashboardYou would want to define it as below, assuming your desired port number is 33333:
- kind: Service
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
labels:
app: kubernetes-dashboard
kubernetes.io/cluster-service: "true"
name: kubernetes-dashboard
namespace: kube-system
spec:
type: NodePort
ports:
- port: 80
targetPort: 9090
nodePort: 33333
selector:
app: kubernetes-dashboard
