Kubernetes: Cannot deploy a simple "Couchbase" service - kubernetes

Question

I am new to Kubernetes I am trying to mimic a behavior a bit like what I do with docker-compose when I serve a Couchbase database in a docker container.
couchbase:
image: couchbase
volumes:
- ./couchbase:/opt/couchbase/var
ports:
- 8091-8096:8091-8096
- 11210-11211:11210-11211
I managed to create a cluster in my localhost using a tool called "kind"
kind create cluster --name my-cluster
kubectl config use-context my-cluster
Then I am trying to use that cluster to deploy a Couchbase service
I created a file named couchbase.yaml with the following content (I am trying to mimic what I do with my docker-compose file).
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: couchbase
namespace: my-project
labels:
platform: couchbase
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
platform: couchbase
template:
metadata:
labels:
platform: couchbase
spec:
volumes:
- name: couchbase-data
hostPath:
# directory location on host
path: /home/me/my-project/couchbase
# this field is optional
type: Directory
containers:
- name: couchbase
image: couchbase
volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /opt/couchbase/var
name: couchbase-data
Then I start the deployment like this:
kubectl create namespace my-project
kubectl apply -f couchbase.yaml
kubectl expose deployment -n my-project couchbase --type=LoadBalancer --port=8091
However my deployment never actually start:
kubectl get deployments -n my-project couchbase
NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE
couchbase 0/1 1 0 6m14s
And when I look for the logs I see this:
kubectl logs -n my-project -lplatform=couchbase --all-containers=true
Error from server (BadRequest): container "couchbase" in pod "couchbase-589f7fc4c7-th2r2" is waiting to start: ContainerCreating

As OP mentioned in a comment, issue was solved using extra mount as explained in documentation: https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/configuration/#extra-mounts
Here is OP's comment but formated so it's more readable:
the error shows up when I run this command:
kubectl describe pods -n my-project couchbase
I could fix it by creating a new kind cluster:
kind create cluster --config cluster.yaml
Passing this content in cluster.yaml:
kind: Cluster
apiVersion: kind.x-k8s.io/v1alpha4
name: inf
nodes:
- role: control-plane
extraMounts:
- hostPath: /home/me/my-project/couchbase
containerPath: /couchbase
In couchbase.yaml the path becomes path: /couchbase of course.
