[Django]-Disallowed host with Django, Kubernetes and a Load Balancer on Google Cloud Platform

Turns out, it’s the IP of the load balancer. In the settings.py file I changed the allowed hosts to

ALLOWED_HOSTS = [os.environ.get('LOAD_BALANCER_IP', '127.0.0.1')]

and in my deployment yaml I added the load balancer IP as an evironment variable to my container:

spec:
  containers:
    - env:
      - name: LOAD_BALANCER_IP
        value: xx.xx.xx.xx

This way I can have the app work automatically both on deploy to the kubernetes cluster and on localhost for development.
