+ Download the MySQL deployment configuration file.

curl -LO https://k8s.io/examples/application/wordpress/mysql-deployment.yaml

+ Download the WordPress configuration file.

curl -LO https://k8s.io/examples/application/wordpress/wordpress-deployment.yaml

+ Create a kustomization.yaml.

#Add a Secret generator in kustomization.yaml from the following command. 

tung@node1:~$ cat kustomization.yaml 
secretGenerator:
- name: mysql-pass
  literals:
  - password=YOUR_PASSWORD
resources:
  - mysql-deployment.yaml
  - wordpress-deployment.yaml

+ Apply and Verify

microk8s kubectl apply -k ./

+ Verify all objects exist.

microk8s kubectl get secrets

+ Verify a PersistentVolumeClaims (PVC) got dynamically provisioned.

microk8s kubectl get pvc

+ Verify the Pod is running.

microk8s kubectl get pods

+ Verify the Service is running.

microk8s kubectl get service wordpress

+ Access the WordPress site.

+ Check Kubernetes is running.

microk8s kubectl get all --all-namespaces
