Usage with minikube

First of all start minikube on your machine:

minikube start

You can always get an overview and see what's going on with your minikube:

minikube dashboard

Build Docker images, using the Minikube Docker daemon:

eval $(minikube docker-env)
docker build -t humanconnection/backend:latest .
docker build -t humanconnection/neo4j:latest -f Dockerfile.neo4j .

check that the image is in Minikubes Docker registry:

minikube ssh docker images 

Now change into directory kubernetes and create services and deployments:

cd kubernetes

kubectl create -f neo4j-deployment.yaml,neo4j-data-persistentvolumeclaim.yaml,backend-deployment.yaml,neo4j-service.json,backend-service.json

You can see the backend in action with:

minikube service backend
