Deploy the Changes

Now let’s deploy our changes.

$ pulumi up

Pulumi computes the minimally disruptive change to achieve the desired state described by the program.

Previewing update (dev):

     Type                        Name            Plan
     pulumi:pulumi:Stack         quickstart-dev
 +   └─ kubernetes:core:Service  nginx           create

 Outputs:
  + ip  : output<string>
  - name: "nginx-xw231xdt"

Resources:
    + 1 to create
    2 unchanged

Do you want to perform this update?

  details

Pulumi will create the service since it is now defined in the program.

Updating (dev):

     Type                        Name            Status
     pulumi:pulumi:Stack         quickstart-dev
 +   └─ kubernetes:core:Service  nginx           created

Outputs:
  + ip  : "10.100.249.54"
  - name: "nginx-xw231xdt"

Resources:
    + 1 created
    2 unchanged

Duration: 12s

You can see we now have an ip stack output that we can curl to get the output from the service.

Using Minikube: Note that Minikube does not support type LoadBalancer. If you are deploying to Minikube, see the following example to run the kubectl port-forward service/YOUR_SERVICE_NAME 8080:80 command to forward the cluster port to the local machine. Then, the service can be accessed via curl http://localhost:8080, which will get the same result as curl $(pulumi stack output ip) as in the environment without using Minikube.

$ kubectl get service
NAME             TYPE        CLUSTER-IP      EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)   AGE
kubernetes       ClusterIP   10.96.0.1       <none>        443/TCP   26h
nginx-3hq3kux6   ClusterIP   10.96.185.206   <none>        80/TCP    15m
$ kubectl port-forward service/nginx-3hq3kux6 8080:80
Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:8080 -> 80
Forwarding from [::1]:8080 -> 80
$ curl $(pulumi stack output ip)

Next, we’ll destroy the stack.
