Deploying to Kubernetes?

[kunjdab]

Hey folks - Looking to deploy Slate to Kubernetes. I'm able to run the Docker file and docker run locally, but I've tried multiple times but unsure how to deploy it to Kubernetes.

I'm converting the docker run to a Container, Services and a Network Policy. However I do see that there is a -v option in the docker ps, which would mean that we need to spin up a persistent container(?) and i'm stuck here.

Anyone had success deploying it to Kube?

Thanks!

My recommendation for deploying slate in kubernetes or docker would be to build it separately and then mount the built source into an nginx container: docker run --name nginx -v /path/to/slate/build:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro -d nginx

Thanks for the suggestion, gives me a 403 at http://localhost:8080/ when I try this:

docker run -it --rm -d -p 8080:80 --name web -v $(pwd)/build:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro -d nginx ede2bd8ff757368821d0390f40b218d8e127534c7dc129a224904e6e13b0ba4a

(Tried it with multiple ports in the Dockerfile, cannot get it to work).

Any suggestions/help? I see also see that the build is an empty folder after docker build . Why is the build folder empty?

The Dockerfile does not build the source as is, it's to provide the necessary environment for doing it. Currently, after building the image, you would do docker run --rm -v $(pwd)/source:/srv/slate/source -v $(pwd)/build:/srv/slate/build slate bundle exec middleman build to get the build output.

This is being further simplified / improved for 2.8.0 where we will be providing a hosted image via https://hub.docker.com.

As for the nginx line, I'm not sure why you've got ede2bd8ff757368821d0390f40b218d8e127534c7dc129a224904e6e13b0ba4a as part of the command, and it causes the container to crash instantly. This line works for me as expected (after building the source):

docker run -d -p 8080:80 --name web -v $(pwd)/build:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro nginx
