Launching eks node with spot ec2

Question

I have an EKS setup with yaml file configured to launch a node with on demand type g4dn. Since its an expensive ec2 I have decided to launch spot g4dn but I couldn't figure out how to specify in my yaml  file to use spot ec2 instead of on-demand and using self managed node.
Any suggestion would be helpful. Thanks

Attaching my yaml file code -----

nodeGroups:
  - name: ng-cpu-group01
    instanceType: g4dn.xlarge
    desiredCapacity: 1
    minSize: 1
    maxSize: 4
    labels: 
      app.pixel/turn: "true"
      app.pixel/envoy: "true"

Karpenter is an option for EKS Cluster autoscaling, which gives  “Price Optimized Allocation strategy” with EC2 Spot. The configuration is mapped to yaml files.
