Burrow Dashboard UI not showing up

I have modified Burrow charts available at https://github.com/Yolean/kubernetes-kafka/tree/master/linkedin-burrow

Things are working fine.

I have port-forwarded my burrow deployment to localhost:8000

When I hit the API endpoints, I am receiving the correct output.

However the Burrow dashboard API is not coming up.

How to get the UI?

Solution

  • Create a service object that exposes your deployment:

    $ kubectl expose deployment your-deployment --type=LoadBalancer --name=your-service

    Check some information about the Service:

    $ kubectl get services your-service

    The output should be similar to this:

    NAME             TYPE           CLUSTER-IP     EXTERNAL-IP      PORT(S)    AGE
your-service   LoadBalancer      x.y.a.b       c.d.e.f          8080/TCP   10s

    If the external IP address is in status, wait a while and execute the same command again.

    To get to Burrow UI you need to define IP and add them to host file (on Linux is /etc/hosts)

    vi /etc/hosts

your_borrow_external_ip www.preffered-name-of-site.com

    Egg:

    vi /etc/hosts

10.107.12.12 www.example.com

    Then use the external IP address (LoadBalancer Ingress) to access the your application:

    http://<external-ip>:<port>

    More information you can find here: exposing-application.

    I hope it helps.
