Simple Flask Project on Kubernetes

This project demonstrates how to deploy a basic Flask web application on Kubernetes.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following prerequisites installed:

• Docker
• Kubernetes Cluster
• kubectl
• Git

Getting Started

Step 1: Clone the Repository

  git clone https://github.com/naknc/kubernetes-flask-project.git
  cd kubernetes-flask-project

Step 2: Build and Push the Docker Image

docker build -t your-docker-username/flask-project:latest .
docker push your-docker-username/flask-project:latest

Replace your-docker-username with your Docker Hub username. Deployment files pull the image from my DockerHub. To change it edit the deployment files accordingly

Step 3: Deploy to Kubernetes

kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml
kubectl apply -f service.yaml

Step 4: Access the Application

Find the external IP for the service:

kubectl get svc flask-service

Open a web browser and go to http:/// to see the "Great Success" message.

Cleanup

To remove the deployed resources:

kubectl delete -f service.yaml
kubectl delete -f deployment.yaml
