Ingress and port forwarding

When configuring Ingress for your Kubernetes cluster, note that by default Kubernetes will bind to a specific interface's IP rather than localhost or all interfaces. This is why you need to use the Kubernetes Node's IP when connecting - even if there's only one Node as in the case of Minikube. Port forwarding in Remote - Containers will allow you to specify <ip>:<port> in either the forwardPorts property or through the port forwarding UI in VS Code.

However, GitHub Codespaces does not yet support this capability, so you'll need to use kubectl to forward the port to localhost. This adds minimal overhead since everything is on the same machine. E.g.:

minikube start
minikube addons enable ingress
# Run this to forward to localhost in the background
nohup kubectl port-forward --pod-running-timeout=24h -n ingress-nginx service/ingress-nginx-controller :80 &

OS Support

This Feature should work on recent versions of Debian/Ubuntu-based distributions with the apt package manager installed.

bash is required to execute the install.sh script.
