Kubernetes Ingress Config

What it does

This skill allows you to configure Kubernetes Ingress resources. It can generate YAML manifests for defining ingress rules, including routing traffic based on hostnames and paths to specific services within your cluster. The skill simplifies the process of exposing applications running in a Kubernetes cluster to external access.

When to use it

• You need to expose an application running inside a Kubernetes cluster to the internet.
• You want to route traffic to different services based on the hostname used by clients (e.g., app1.example.com goes to service A, app2.example.com goes to service B).
• You need to configure path-based routing within your Kubernetes cluster (e.g., /api goes to API service, /web goes to web application).
• You are automating the deployment and configuration of ingress resources as part of an infrastructure-as-code workflow.

Key capabilities

• Generates Kubernetes Ingress YAML manifests.
• Supports routing based on hostnames.
• Supports path-based routing.
• Simplifies ingress resource definition.

Example prompts

• "Create a Kubernetes Ingress that routes traffic for myapp.example.com to service my-app on port 80."
• "Generate an Ingress rule that sends requests to /api to the service named 'api-service'."
• “Write an ingress configuration for site1.com pointing to deployment frontend and site2.com pointing to deployment backend.”

Tips & gotchas

• Requires a working Kubernetes cluster and understanding of basic Ingress concepts.
• The skill generates YAML; you'll need to apply it to your cluster using kubectl.
