Error when pulling image built locally without a registry

I’ve followed the instructions from https://microk8s.io/docs/working “Working with locally built images without a registry” and I’m building a JVM app from Maven with the jib-maven-plugin outputting to <image>outlooktoslack:local</image>.

# microk8s.ctr -n k8s.io images ls
docker.io/library/outlooktoslack:local  application/vnd.oci.image.manifest.v1+json 
 sha256:daa6391342d9283046fd75c55c4e255f1a3ae58afb005617e6d56e7607e1fd8e 74.3 MiB  linux/amd64  io.cri-containerd.image=managed

I’ve tried with deployment as:

      containers:
        - name: outlooktoslack
          image: outlooktoslack:local

and

      containers:
        - name: outlooktoslack
          image: docker.io/library/outlooktoslack:local

but to no avail:

I’m probably the one doing something wrong but you might be better at understanding what it is? Would be super happy with any help!

@gostaj Can you add imagePullPolicy: Never ? or IfNotPresent

[balchua]

@gostaj, the registry addon is used by microk8s.ctr. The microk8s guide you pointed out explains how to use.

I have this project in github (shameless plug) https://github.com/balchua/demo

Checkout the skaffold.yaml file there. For example https://github.com/balchua/demo/blob/master/votes/skaffold.yaml

I may have some skaffold there still using dockercli, but its safe to turn it to false.

My normal dev workflow is building images using jib, push it to the registry addon in microk8s. Then deploy the apps in microk8s. All using skaffold run -p <profile> or sometimes skaffold dev -p <profile>.
