How can I deploy elasticsearch to kubernete?

I installed minikube on my Mac and I'd like to deploy elasticsearch on this k8s cluster. I followed this instruction: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-deploy-elasticsearch.html

The file I created is:

apiVersion: elasticsearch.k8s.elastic.co/v1
kind: Elasticsearch
metadata:
  name: quickstart
spec:
  version: 7.10.0
  nodeSets:
  - name: default
    count: 1
    config:
      node.store.allow_mmap: false

when I run kubectl apply -f es.yaml, I got this error: error: unable to recognize "es.yaml": no matches for kind "Elasticsearch" in version "elasticsearch.k8s.elastic.co/v1"

It says kind is not matched. I wonder how I can make it work. I searched k8s doc and it seems kind can be service, pod, deployment. But why the above instruction uses Elasticsearch as the kind? What value of kind should I specify?

I think you might have missed the step of installing CRD and the operator for ElasticSearch. Have you followed this step https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-deploy-eck.html?

Service, Pod, Deployment etc are Kubernetes native resources. Kubernetes provides a way to write custom resources also, using CRDs. Elasticsearch is one such example, so you have to define custom resource before using it for Kubernetes to understand that.
