The bottom line is that I need to replace the pod with php code in the kubernetes cluster with a docker container using telepresence, this pod contains 2 containers: php and nginx. I do everything according to the instructions (https://www.telepresence.io/tutorials/php) but it seems kubernetes does not see my container.

I run the cluster locally on minikube version 1.16.0, kubernetes version 1.20.0. I am using the NodePort service to access the application. After swap the pod, I get a 404 error.

This is how I find the external address: addr = kubectl get nodes -o jsonpath='{ $.items*.status.addresses?(@.type=="InternalIP").address }'

Target browser address: addr + :30000

Spoof command: telepresence --swap-deployment telepresence-php --docker-run --rm -v$(pwd)/web:/var/www/html telepresence-dev

docker container with which I substitute the php + nginx pod.

FROM nanoninja/php-fpm:latest

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install nginx -y
ADD ./etc/nginx/default.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
RUN rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default

CMD nginx && php-fpm

Nginx default.conf settings:

server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server;
    server_name localhost;

    index index.php index.html;
    error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log;
    access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
    root /var/www/html/public;

    set $virtualdir "";
    set $realdir "";

    if ($request_uri ~ ^/([^/]*)/.*$ ) {
        set $virtualdir /$1;
    }

    if (-d "$document_root$virtualdir") {
        set $realdir "${virtualdir}";
    }
