I've created a simple Python API using responder and deployed it to Google Cloud with Kubernetes. I don't have a domain name just a raw IP address.
http://192.0.2.42/api/myapiAnd deployed as:
kubectl get service
NAME         TYPE           CLUSTER-IP    EXTERNAL-IP    PORT(S)        AGE
kubernetes   ClusterIP      192.0.2.1     <none>         443/TCP        5d15h
web          LoadBalancer   192.0.2.100   192.0.2.42        80:32749/TCP   5d15h
and
kubectl get pods
NAME                   READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
my-pod-name   1/1     Running   0          16hI'd like to make it an HTTPS endpoint so I can use it as:
https://192.0.2.42/api/myapiBut I am struggling to find the easiest way to do it.
Should this be something that is done via Kubernetes, or something that is done in the Python code? It doesn't look like responder provides an easy mechanism for this.
If you're looking for the bare minimum level of effort to do this, you'll need to install an SSL certificate inside your docker container. You can also continue to use externalIP as you are now.
Then in responder you can enable HSTS to redirect http to https.
api = responder.API(enable_hsts=True)
Then just access your pod with
https://192.0.2.42/api/myapi
