Implement _hw#1. This actually works but there are some differences between the instruction and my solution:

• Instruction: Install Nginx as ingress controller. Nginx should be avialible on http://localhost:8080/

  My solution: Using Ingress, we cannot specify spec.rules.host field as "localhost", cause it is like the exception host. Generally speaking, as I understood, using localhost is for debug/development thus a simple port forwarding does the trick. But I didn't find the solution how to automate kubectl port-forward command. That's why I've named host as "localhst" and it worked on the url: http://localhst , but in instruction nginx should be available on 8080 port. I've read that Ingress does not support 8080 port, only defaults 80 and 443, thats why I cannot use 8080 port. Also I can use Nodeport but It is not compatible with Ingress. If I try to use NodePort and make changes in /etc/hosts, I'll face the another problem: service's default node port range is 30000-33000, therefore I need to change it, but I cannot find the solution how to automate doing that just terminating kubectl create -f <yml filename> command. That's why I can use port number in default range (30036). In this case it should work on http://localhst:30036/. I've chosen an Ingress option.

To check this home task you need to add to /etc/hosts file the string below:

<minikube ip>      localhst
