Minikube

This example deploy a 3 nodes Elasticsearch 8.5.1 cluster on Minikube using custom values.

If helm or kubectl timeouts occur, you may consider creating a minikube VM with more CPU cores or memory allocated.

Note that this configuration should be used for test only and isn't recommended for production.

Requirements

In order to properly support the required persistent volume claims for the Elasticsearch StatefulSet, the default-storageclass and storage-provisioner minikube addons must be enabled.

minikube addons enable default-storageclass
minikube addons enable storage-provisioner

Usage

• Deploy Elasticsearch chart with the default values: make install

• You can now setup a port forward to query Elasticsearch API:

  kubectl port-forward svc/elasticsearch-master 9200
  curl localhost:9200/_cat/indices
