I created a kubernetes cluster in Google Cloud Platform, after that, I installed Helm/tiller on cluster, and after, I installed traefik with helm like oficial documentation says to do.
Now i'm trying to create an Ingress for a service, but if I put the annotation kubernetes.io/ingress.class: traefik
, the load balancer for Ingress is not created. But without the annotation, it works with default Ingress. (The service type is nodeport)
EDIT: I also tried this example in a clean google cloud kubernetes cluster: https://supergiant.io/blog/using-traefik-as-ingress-controller-for-your-kubernetes-cluster/ but its the same, when I chose kubernetes.io/ingress.class: traefik
, won't be created a load balancer for ingress.
my files are: animals-svc.yaml:

The services are created, but the ingress loadbalancer is not created:
But, if I remove the line kubernetes.io/ingress.class: traefik
it works with the default ingress of Kubernetes
You can try to add more annotations as below
traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/frontend-entry-points: http,https
traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/redirect-entry-point: https
traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/redirect-permanent: "true"
Like this,
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: traefik-dashboard-ingress
namespace: traefik
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: traefik
traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/frontend-entry-points: http,https
traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/redirect-entry-point: https
traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/redirect-permanent: "true"
spec:
rules:
- host: traefik-ui.example.com
http:
paths:
- path: /
backend:
serviceName: traefik-dashboard
servicePort: 8080
Traefik does not create a load balancer for you by default.
As HTTP(s) load balancing with Ingress documentation mention:
When you create an Ingress object, the GKE ingress controller creates a Google Cloud Platform HTTP(S) load balancer and configures it according to the information in the Ingress and its associated Services.
This is all applicable for GKE ingress controller(gce) - more info about gce you can find here: https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-gce
If you would like to use Traefik as ingress - you have to expose Traefik service with type: LoadBalancer
Example:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: traefik
spec:
type: LoadBalancer
selector:
k8s-app: traefik-ingress-lb
ports:
- port: 80
targetPort: 80
More info with a lot of explanation diagrams and real working example you can find in the Exposing Kubernetes Services to the internet using Traefik Ingress Controller article.
Hope this help.
