As in the title: can I specify e.g.

image: frontend:3.4

in k8s' configuration file without giving any reference to local repository/Docker Hub/any other remote registry?

In other words: can Kubernetes load local images like Docker does, e.g.:

docker --rm --name frontend frontend:3.4

CodePudding user response：

In Microk8s you need to import the image first, so direct access to the docker daemon is not possible.

For example you have your local image frontend:3.4 you need to export it from docker and import it like so:

docker save frontend:3.4 > tmp-image.tar
microk8s ctr image import tmp-image.tar

You can verify the import using

microk8s ctr images ls
