+# git-blog-demo
+
+This demo shows how to use the `git-sync` sidekick container along side `volumes` and `volumeMounts` to create a markdown powered blog.
+
+## How it works
+
+The pod is composed of 3 containers that share directories using 2 volumes:
+
+- The `git-sync` container clones a git repo into the `markdown` volume
+- The `hugo` container read from the `markdown` volume and render it into the `html` volume.
+- The `nginx` container serve the content from the `html` volume.
+
+## Usage
+
+Build the demo containers, and push them to a registry
+``
+docker build -t <some-registry>/git-sync ..
+docker build -t <some-registry>/hugo hugo/
+docker push <some-registry>/hugo <some-registry>/git-sync
+```
+
+Create the pod and the service for the blog
+```
+kubectl pods create config/pod.html
+kubectl services create config/pod.html
+```
+
+Open the external ip in your browser
