Simple demo for nginx-controller ingress

Pre-requisites

• An up and running Kubernetes cluster
• OpenSSL for certificate generation

Launch the demo

git clone https://github.com/k8s-school/demo-nginx-controller
cd demo-nginx-controller
./setup.sh

HTTPS Support

This demo includes automatic generation of self-signed certificates for HTTPS ingress. The setup script:

1. Generates self-signed certificates using generate-certs.sh
2. Creates a Kubernetes TLS secret with the certificates
3. Configures the ingress to use TLS

Manual certificate generation

You can also generate certificates manually:

./generate-certs.sh [domain-name]

Default domain is hello-world.info. Certificates are stored in ./certs/ directory.

Accessing the application

After running ./setup.sh -s, you can access the application via:

• HTTP: curl hello-world.info:<node-port>
• HTTPS: curl -k https://hello-world.info:<https-node-port>

The -k flag ignores the self-signed certificate warnings.
