This is why you need to use the Kubernetes Node's IP when connecting - even if there's only one Node as in the case of Minikube. Port forwarding in Remote - Containers will allow you to specify `<ip>:<port>` in either the `forwardPorts` property or through the port forwarding UI in VS Code. + +However, GitHub Codespaces does not yet support this capability, so you'll need to use `kubectl` to forward the port to localhost. This adds minimal overhead since everything is on the same machine. E.g.: + +```bash +minikube start +minikube addons enable ingress +# Run this to forward to localhost in the background +nohup kubectl port-forward --pod-running-timeout=24h -n ingress-nginx service/ingress-nginx-controller :80 & +``` + + +## OS Support + +This Feature should work on recent versions of Debian/Ubuntu-based distributions with the `apt` package manager installed. + +`bash` is required to execute the `install.sh` script. + + +--- + +_Note: This file was auto-generated from the [devcontainer-feature.json](https://github.com/devcontainers/features/blob/main/src/kubectl-helm-minikube/devcontainer-feature.json).
