Docker

docker run --rm eromanovskyj/gongfig:latest --version

docker run --rm eromanovskyj/gongfig:latest flush --url=http://localhost:8001

docker run --rm -v `pwd`/config.json:/tmp eromanovskyj/gongfig:latest import --url=http://localhost:8001 --file /tmp/config.json

Deployment

As usually Kong admin api is not reachable externally, you can forward port to your local computer:

kubectl port-forward <kong_pod> 8001:8001

Another option is deploing docker container with gongfig and use it as sidecar application. The image name is eromanovskyj/gongfig. You can also deploy a corresponding pod inside your kubernetes cluster, use deployment.yml for it.

Note

As routes and services are requested simultaneously during config export, you need to use kong 0.14 or later in order to avoid this bug
