Minikube Django Application

This project demonstrates how to deploy a Django web application on Minikube, a tool that enables you to run Kubernetes locally. The web application is built using Django, a high-level Python web framework.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following prerequisites installed on your local machine:

• Minikube
• kubectl
• Docker
• Python (for local development)
• Django (for local development)

Installation

1. Clone this repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/sohitdeveloper/minikube-python-app.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd minikube-python-app

3. Install the required Python packages:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

To run the Django web application locally, use the following command:

python manage.py runserver

This will start the Django development server, and you can access the web application by visiting http://localhost:8000 in your web browser.

Deployment on Minikube

To deploy the Django application on Minikube, follow these steps:

1. Start Minikube:

   minikube start

2. Build the Docker image:

   docker build -t minikube-django-app .

3. Apply the Kubernetes manifests:

   kubectl apply -f deployment.yml
   kubectl apply -f service.yml

4. Access the deployed application:

   minikube service minikube-django-app-service

5. Docker image URL - pick V1

This will open the Django web application in your default web browser.
