Why isnt spin kube deploy not working by default?

[codeitlikemiley]

I run this command

spin kube deploy --from ghcr.io/$GH_USER/$PROJECT::latest
# outputs  
spinapp.spin.fermyon.com/artas configured

but when i curl curl localhost:3000

that dont work?

Is this only applicable on docker-dekstop ? and not with k3d-wasms-cluster context?

this is what i saw on the documentation:

https://www.spinkube.dev/docs/spin-operator/tutorials/integrating-with-docker-desktop/#deploying-our-spin-app-to-docker

are we limited only on using the set up with docker desktop ?

also how do we really make use of this ?

assuming we dont want to use fermyon cloud and deploy it to other service provider e.g. GKE?

Do you have any guide on about that , i believe that is not found on any documentation pertaining to spin kube

which utilize kubernetes...

Hope someone can answer this thanks

Hello @codeitlikemiley, I want to first check on the reference you are attempting to deploy: ghcr.io/$GH_USER/$PROJECT::latest.

Is this a Spin app that has been published via eg spin registry push ghcr.io/$GH_USER/$PROJECT::latest? Or is it a Spin app wrapped in a Dockerfile and pushed via docker push? Those are the two supported paths, with the former being the preferred/suggested and the latter a carryover from earlier versions of the containerd-shim-spin.

If it is neither of those but rather a 'regular' Docker image, this won't run as a SpinApp on Kubernetes via the Spin Operator. (Though of course it can run as a standard Kubernetes Deployment/Pod!)

I also noticed the tag includes two colons instead of one. It should be ghcr.io/$GH_USER/$PROJECT:latest, not ghcr.io/$GH_USER/$PROJECT::latest.
