Ghost is a popular blogging engine with a clean UI, built on JS.

Imperative Steps to Deploy:

(Once you have all the files in ~/infra)

• Ghost is configured using a JS file (infra/ghost-config.js) which we will store as a ConfigMap.
  • kubectl create cm --from-file infra/ghost-config.js ghost-config-yaml
• Create your mysql database:
  • kubectl apply infra/mysql/mysql-configmap.yml
  • kubectl apply infra/mysql/mysql-services.yml
  • kubectl apply infra/mysql/mysql-statefulset.yml
• Then, exec into the mysql master container to create the db table we want to use:
  • kubectl exec -it mysql-0 -- mysql -u root -p
  • create database ghost_db
  • exit
• kubectl apply infra/ghost.yml To create your deployment.
• Then, to expose and test it locally:
  • kubectl expose deployments ghost --port=2368
  • kubectl proxy
  • Navigate to http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/default/services/ghost/proxy/ in your browser.
