<p>I have created a ClusterIP service according to configuration files below, however I can't seem to get the URL from minikube for that service</p>

<pre class="lang-sh prettyprint-override"><code>k create -f service-cluster-definition.yaml

<p>And if I try to add NodePort into the <strong>ports</strong> section of service-cluster-definition.yaml it complains with error, that such key is deprecated.</p>

<h3>First let's clear some concepts from <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#publishing-services-service-types" rel="noreferrer">Documentation</a>:</h3>

<blockquote>
  <ul>
  <li><p>ClusterIP: Exposes the Service on a cluster-internal IP.
    Choosing this value <strong>makes the Service only reachable from within</strong> the cluster.</p></li>
  <li><p><a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#nodeport" rel="noreferrer">NodePort</a>: Exposes the Service on each Node’s IP at a static port (the NodePort).
  You’ll be able to contact the NodePort Service, <strong>from outside the cluster</strong>, by requesting  <code>NodeIP:NodePort</code>.</p></li>
  </ul>
</blockquote>

<hr>

<p><strong>Question 1:</strong></p>

<blockquote>
  <p>I have created a ClusterIP service according to configuration files below, however I can't seem to get the URL from minikube for that service.</p>
</blockquote>

<ul>
<li>Since Minikube is a virtualized environment on a single host we tend to forget that the cluster is isolated from the host computer. If you set a service as <code>ClusterIP</code>, Minikube will not give external access.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Question 2:</strong></p>

<blockquote>
  <p>And if I try to add NodePort into the  <strong>ports</strong>  section of <em>service-cluster-definition.yaml</em> it complains with error, that such key is deprecated.</p>
</blockquote>

<ul>
<li>Maybe you were pasting on the wrong position. You should just substitute the field <code>type: ClusterIP</code> for <code>type: NodePort</code>. Here is the correct form of your yaml:</li>
</ul>

<pre class="lang-yaml prettyprint-override"><code>apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: myapp-frontend
spec:
  type: NodePort
  ports:
    - targetPort: 80
      port: 80
  selector:
    app: myapp
    type: etl

</code></pre>

<ul>
<li>As you can see, with the service set as <code>NodePort</code> the minikube start serving the app using <code>MinikubeIP:NodePort</code> routing the connection to the matching pods.

<ul>
<li>Note that <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#nodeport" rel="noreferrer">nodeport</a> will be chosen by default between 30000:32767</li>
</ul></li>
</ul>
