Create an echo server in Kubernetes
Raw
kubectl-echo.md

Creates a pod called echo that listens on port 8080, echoing everything it receives.

kubectl run echo --image=busybox -- nc -lk -p 8080 -e cat

To test it out, you can do this, to listen on local port 8080 and forward all connections to the echo pod:

kubectl port-forward echo 8080:8080

Then connect:

nc localhost 8080
