I have a frontend single page application written using Vuejs, I use axios to call a backend API. I am trying to use kubernetes to run the service:
My deployment and service yml file:
apiVersion: apps/v1beta1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: testapi
spec:
replicas: 1
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: testapi
spec:
containers:
- name: testapi
image: testregistry.azurecr.io/testapi:latest
ports:
- containerPort: 3001
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: testapi
spec:
type: LoadBalancer
ports:
- port: 3001
selector:
app: testapi
---
apiVersion: apps/v1beta1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: testportal
spec:
replicas: 1
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: testportal
spec:
containers:
- name: testportal
image: testregistry.azurecr.io/testportal
ports:
- containerPort: 8080
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: testportal
spec:
type: LoadBalancer
ports:
- port: 8080
selector:
app: testportal
The frontend is running at the client browser. My axios url is connect to http://testapi:3001, which obviously is not working. Any idea how to have it connected to the backed API?
you can only use that service name from any other deployment inside the same kubernetes cluster. if you want to call it from front-end, you will have to expose an external public accessible endpoint.
