To deploy a simple Python HTTPS server in a Kubernetes cluster, you can follow these steps:

1. Create a Dockerfile for your Python HTTPS server application. Here's an example of a Dockerfile for a simple Python HTTPS server:

1

FROM python:3.8
WORKDIR /app
COPY requirements.txt .
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
COPY . .
CMD ["python", "server.py"]

1. Create a Kubernetes Deployment manifest file for your Python HTTPS server application. Here's an example of a Deployment manifest file:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: python-https-server
spec:
  replicas: 3
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: python-https-server
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: python-https-server
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: python-https-server
        image: your-dockerhub-username/python-https-server:latest
        ports:
        - containerPort: 443

1. Create a Kubernetes Service manifest file to expose your Python HTTPS server application. Here's an example of a Service manifest file:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: python-https-service
spec:
  selector:
    app: python-https-server
  ports:
    - protocol: TCP
      port: 443

1. Apply the Deployment and Service manifest files to your Kubernetes cluster using the following command:

1
2

kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml
kubectl apply -f service.yaml

1. Verify that your Python HTTPS server application is running in the Kubernetes cluster by checking the status of the Deployment and Service:

1
2

kubectl get deployments
kubectl get services

Your Python HTTPS server should now be deployed and accessible within your Kubernetes cluster. You can access it using the Service's Cluster IP or NodePort, depending on how you configured the Service.
