Docker for Mac - Kubernetes - reference local image

Question

I am using Docker for Mac with Kubernetes support and I\'m struggling to create a Kubernetes Deployment that references a locally built image.

Output of docker

Answer 1

I was able to run a local image by setting the imagePullPolicy to Never.

For example:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: local-image-test
spec:
  containers:
  - name: local-image-container
    image: local-image:latest
    imagePullPolicy: Never
