Im have k8s app (Web api) which first exposed via NodePort (I've used port forwarding to run it and it works as expected)
run it like localhost:8080/api/v1/users
Than I've created a service with type LoadBalancer to expose it outside, which works as expected.
e.g. http://myhost:8080/api/v1/users
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: fzr
labels:
app: fzr
tier: service
spec:
type: LoadBalancer
ports:
- port: 8080
selector:
app: fzr
Now we need to make it secure and after reading about this topic we have decided to use ingress for it.
This is what I did
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: ctr-ingress
selector:
app: fzr
spec:
ports:
- name: https
port: 443
targetPort: httpsnow I want to run it like
https://myhost:443/api/v1/users
This is not working, im not able to run the application with port 443 as https, please advice?
It looks to me like you are using a yaml template for a type service to deploy your ingress but not correctly. targetPort should be a numeric port, and anyway, I don't think "https" is a correct value (I might be wrong though).
Something like this:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
type: NodePort
metadata:
name: fzr-ingress
spec:
type: NodePort
selector:
app: fzr
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 443
targetPort: 8080Now you have a nodeport service listening on 443 and forwarding the traffic to your fzr pods listening on port 8080.
However, the fact you are listening on port 443 does nothing to secure your app by itself. To encrypt the traffic you need a TLS certificate that you have to make available to the ingress as a secret.
If this seems somewhat complicated (because it is) you could look into deploying an Nginx ingress from a helm chart
In any case your ingress yaml would look something like this:
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
name: gcs-ingress
namespace: default
spec:
rules:
- host: myhost
http:
paths:
- backend:
serviceName: fzr
servicePort: 443
path: /api/v1/users
tls:
- hosts:
- myhost
secretName: myhosts-tlsMore info on how to configure this here
