How to create hostpath PV for db.sqlite3 database in minikube

Question

I'm building a project(frontend+backend+DB), containerize it, & deploy it on minikube(single node cluster). Due to absence of PV, I lost the data after pod update. Trying to figure out how I can create a PV for hostpath & keep that database on that storage for data persistance.

File structure

I tried out to link deployment.yml with pvc.yml & pvc.yml with pv.yml. While executing pv.yml file giving node affinity error & host path error. can't find how to resolve the error.

• settings.py for DB config

• service.yml

• pv.yml

apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume

  name: mlh-pv

  capacity:
    storage: 500Mi

  hostPath:
    path: /home/parth/storage-mlh
    type: DirectoryOrCreate

• pvc.yml
