Kind Setup

Create a Kind Kubernetes cluster inside a DinD (Docker-in-Docker) container.

When to use

  • Setting up Kubernetes for testing
  • Need a Kind cluster inside this container

Steps

  1. Verify Docker available

    bash
    docker info

    If this fails, STOP. DinD is not available.

  2. Delete existing cluster

    bash
    kind delete cluster --name ark-cluster 2>/dev/null || true

  3. Create cluster

    bash
    kind create cluster --name ark-cluster

  4. Configure kubeconfig with container IP

    bash
    CONTROL_PLANE_IP=$(docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' ark-cluster-control-plane)
kind get kubeconfig --name ark-cluster --internal | sed "s/ark-cluster-control-plane/$CONTROL_PLANE_IP/g" > ~/.kube/config

  5. Verify connection

    bash
    kubectl cluster-info

Why the IP replacement?

This container connects to Kind via Docker networking. The default 127.0.0.1 or hostname won't work. Using the container's actual IP ensures connectivity.
