Is possible to set a local image in a kubernetes pod yml file?
This is my pod yml file, and the question is if I can use a local image to containers tag (in local, I have all files to my api project, dockerfile, etc).
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: ReplicaSet
metadata:
name: api-service
spec:
selector:
matchLabels:
api-name: api-service
replicas: 2
template:
metadata:
labels:
api-name: api-service
spec:
containers:
- name: api-service
image: #HEREBy local you mean it doesn't pull from dockerhub or any of the public registry. Yes it's possible if you run a single node kubernetes. You will utlize the docker cache where your kubernetes/kubelet is running.
First thing is, you need to set your imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent. Then, when you build your image, you need to point to the docker instance your kubernetes is using.
I do this mostly with minikube, so the dev iteration is faster without pushing to my registry.
