ingress controller about hcloud-cloud-controller-manager HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @vukomir, I guess you could try putting the LB before your ingress controller.

from hcloud-cloud-controller-manager.

A LoadBalancer is a special type of a service (traffic redirection), an ingress controller is a special type of software running in your Kubernetes environment. So you can't (never) use a LoadBalancer/Service as an Ingress Controller, because it's completely different.

However, the idea of @fhofherr works like a charm: Install an Ingress Controller (e.g. nginx-ingress), and give it a Service type LoadBalancer. E.g., when you want to use the nginx-ingress helm chart, you can use a configuration similar to this one:

controller:
  config:
    use-proxy-protocol: "true"
  replicaCount: 3
  service:
    type: LoadBalancer
    annotations:
      load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/name: k8s1lb1
      load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/location: fsn1
      load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/use-private-ip: true
      load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/algorithm-type: least_connections
      load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/uses-proxyprotocol: true
      load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/hostname: k8s1lb1.example.com

Then, if you have the hcloud-cloud-controller-manager installed, it will create the LoadBalancer for you, forwards the traffic to nginx-ingress and nginx-ingress will do the rest.
