### Run in daemon mode
Mizu can be ran detached from the cli using the daemon flag: `mizu tap --daemon`. This type of mizu instance will run indefinitely in the cluster.
Please note that daemon mode requires you to have RBAC creation permissions, see the [permissions](docs/PERMISSIONS.md) doc for more details.
In order to access a daemon mizu you will have to run `mizu view` after running the `tap --daemon` command.

## Stop mizu daemon
To stop the detached mizu instance and clean all cluster side resources, run `mizu clean`
```bash
$ mizu clean # mizu will continue running in cluster until clean is executed
Removing mizu resources
```
## Expose mizu web app
Mizu could be exposed at a later stage in any of the following ways:
### Using mizu view command
In a machine that can access both the cluster and a browser, you can run `mizu view` command which creates a proxy.
Besides that, all the regular ways to expose k8s pods are valid.
```bash
$ mizu view
Establishing connection to k8s cluster...
Mizu is available at http://localhost:8899
^C
..
```
### Port Forward
```bash
$ kubectl port-forward -n mizu deployment/mizu-api-server 8899:8899
```
### NodePort
```bash
$ kubectl expose -n mizu deployment mizu-api-server --name mizu-node-port --type NodePort --port 80 --target-port 8899
```
Mizu's IP is the IP of any node (get the IP with `kubectl get nodes -o wide`) and the port is the target port of the new
service (`kubectl get services -n mizu mizu-node-port`). Note that this method will expose Mizu to public access if your
nodes are public.
### LoadBalancer
```bash
$ kubectl expose deployment -n mizu --port 80 --target-port 8899 mizu-api-server --type=LoadBalancer --name=mizu-lb
service/mizu-lb exposed
..
$ kubectl get services -n mizu
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
mizu-api-server ClusterIP 10.107.200.100 <none> 80/TCP 5m5s
mizu-lb LoadBalancer 10.107.200.101 34.77.120.116 80:30141/TCP 76s
```
Note that `LoadBalancer` services only work on supported clusters (usually cloud providers) and might incur extra costs
If you changed the `mizu-resources-namespace` value, make sure the `-n mizu` flag of the `kubectl expose` command is
changed to the value of `mizu-resources-namespace`
mizu will now be available both by running `mizu view` or by accessing the `EXTERNAL-IP` of the `mizu-lb` service
through your browser.
