Kubernetes - connection refuse using nginx ingress

I am learning Kubernetes, and I did create a LAB on a Bare-Metal, So I'm a Kubernetes noob!

I did create my deployment and it is running and accessible using NodePort, But when I use nginx-ingress, The nginx container is running and it is responding inside its container using curl localhost, but when I try from the outer world, I see this message: curl: (7) Failed to connect to app.example.com port 80: Connection refused

These are my app-service.yml and app-ingress.yml which they are running.

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: my-app-service
spec:
  ports:
  - port: 80
    targetPort: 3010
    protocol: TCP
    name: http
  selector:
    app: my-app

kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: my-ingress
  labels:
    app: my-app
  annotations:
    # use the shared ingress-nginx
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx"
spec:
  rules:
  - host: app.example.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /
        backend:
          serviceName: my-app-service
          servicePort: 80

Also my deployment:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: my-app-deployment
  labels:
    app: my-app
spec:
  replicas: 2
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: my-app
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: my-app
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: my-app
          image: my-app:1.0
          ports:
            - containerPort: 3010

The command: kubectl get all --namespace ingress-nginx is showing:

and the command: kubectl get ing is showing:

Another way is to add externalIPs: to ingress-nginx-controller. In such scenario you will be able to access your services as follows:

curl -i http://${externalIP}:80 -H "Host: app.example.com"

You can add app.example.com to /etc/hosts and access your services via hostnames.

ClusterIP is not accessible from outside kubernetes cluster. ClusterIP provides L4 layer loadbalancing.

From the docs here you few options for nginx ingress on bare metal

  1. Use MetalLB as pure software loadbalancer implementation
  2. Use NodePort service to expose nginx ingress controller. Note you are not using NodePort to expose the regular pod.You are getting benefit of L7 layer load balancing by nginx.
  3. Run nginx with hostNetwork:true

If you choose option 3 which is easiest in my opinion you can access the kubernetes pod via ingress using curl http://<NODEIP> -H "Host: app.example.com"
