Using only the Kubectl command line is sometimes not intuitive. Kubernetes offers a project called Dashboard, which provides users with a visual Web interface to view various information about the current cluster.
Users can use The Kubernetes Dashboard to deploy containerized applications, monitor application status, perform troubleshooting tasks, and manage Kubernetes resources.
Check the dashboard version compatibility with Kubernetes: github.com/kubernetes/… Find dashboard V2.0.5 compatible with our Kubernetes 1.19, ok, install it!
Perform yaml files directly deployed: kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/v2.0.5/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml
In K8S, a configuration file is required to create resources. The format of the configuration file must be YAML
Of course, we can also download the yamL file, edit it and then execute it.
Check kubernetes-Dashboard application status
kubectl get pod -n kubernetes-dashboard
Enable the API Server access proxy
kubectl proxy
Access the Kubernetes Dashboard at the following URL
http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/
Configure the console access token
For the Mac environment
TOKEN=$(kubectl -n kube-system describe secret default| awk '$1=="token:"{print $2}') kubectl config set-credentials docker-for-desktop --token="${TOKEN}" echo $TOKEN
For Windows
$TOKEN=((kubectl -n kube-system describe secret default | Select-String "token:") -split " +")[1] kubectl config set-credentials docker-for-desktop --token="${TOKEN}" echo $TOKEN
When logging into the Dashboard, select the token
Enter the console output above
Or select Kubeconfig file, the path is as follows:
Mac: $HOME/.kube/config Win: %UserProfile%.kube\config
Click login to enter the Kubernetes Dashboard
