IngressRoute for Kubernetes-Dashboard using Traefik

I'm moving my project to Kubernetes using Traefik for routing and MetalLB as my load balancer.

I've deployed several apps and I'd like to make use of official Kubernetes-Dashboard. So I deployed the Kubernetes-Dashboard using recommended config and created IngressRoute:

# dashboard.yaml
apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1
kind: IngressRoute
metadata:
  name: kubernetes-dashboard
  namespace: kubernetes-dashboard
spec:
  entryPoints:
    - websecure
  routes:
    - match: Host(`k8s.example.com`, `www.k8s.example.com`)
      kind: Rule
      middlewares:
        # - name: https-redirectscheme
        # - name: nginx-basic-auth
      services:
        - kind: Service
          name: kubernetes-dashboard
          # namespace: kubernetes-dashboard
          port: 443
  tls:
    secretName: k8s.example.com-tls

It shows up in the Traefik Dashboard, but when I try to access k8s.example.com I get Internal Server Error.

Thank you

I had the same problem - which is why I ended on this question. When I find out how to use the IngressRoute I'll update this answer.

This answer describes how to use NodePort instead.

kubectl patch svc kubernetes-dashboard -p '{"spec": {"type": "NodePort"}}'
# Confirm
kubectl get svc -n kubernetes-dashboard kubernetes-dashboard -o yaml

# patch the dashboard
tee ~/nodeport_dashboard_patch.yaml<<EOF
spec:
  ports:
  - nodePort: 32000
    port: 443
    protocol: TCP
    targetPort: 8443
EOF

kubectl patch svc kubernetes-dashboard --patch "$(cat ~/nodeport_dashboard_patch.yaml)"

Now the dashboard can be reached on the external IP Traefik gave you - in collaboration with MetalLB - with port :32000.
If you have a website routed to your cluster, you can use:

https://yourwebsite.com:32000

As described in the link you shared, fetch the token by using:

export SA_NAME= # admin user from the ServiceAccount
kubectl -n kube-system describe secret $(kubectl -n kube-system get secret | grep ${SA_NAME} | awk '{print $1}')

(I could change this answer for a complete script to do this; If you'd like)
