I’m a Java developer with more than 15 years of coding experience, and while I’ve been working with OpenShift for over three years now, I never found it easy to use or compelling as a day to day development platform. Why? There are many reasons to this question, but the key ones are, complexity and speed. Before you call me a troll, allow me to explain. jorgemoralespou openshift development local devexp odo http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2018-07-12-care-and-feed-minishift-dev-envs/ Thu, 12 Jul 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Thu, 12 Jul 2018 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2018-07-12-care-and-feed-minishift-dev-envs/ If you’ve heard of minishift, the OpenShift environment for your laptop, or if you’re using the Container Development Kit (CDK) at work, you’re probably building applications on the OpenShift Container Platform. This post is for you. If you’re new to OpenShift and these names aren’t familiar yet, check out the this other minishift blog first to get the most value from the content below. Upgrades: The Wisdom of Impermanence Developers often ask how minishift installations should be upgraded. jorgemoralespou openshift development local devexp minishift http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-07-19-deploy-helm-charts-on-minishift/ Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:00:00 +0000 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-07-19-deploy-helm-charts-on-minishift/ For some time I’ve been hearing about Helm and have been asked by people how they could deploy into OpenShift applications defined as Charts, the format Helm uses to package an application. One of the really nice features that minishift >= 1.2.0 introduced was the concept of an addon which is a way to provide additional capabilities to your minishift local environment. As this feature is really interesting, and evolving really nicely, I have developed some addons that allow me to extend my minishift capabilities by issuing a single command. jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp minishift build helm http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-07-17-trust-your-certs/ Mon, 17 Jul 2017 00:00:00 +0000 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-07-17-trust-your-certs/ One of my biggest interests is how to make local development experience with OpenShift as easy as possible. I’m constantly exploring what needs to be enhanced to our current experience as I develop applications for OpenShift very frequently. I work hard to understand developers requirements and eventually provide solutions in the tooling we provide. I use to incubate ideas in a project my team owns, oc-cluster-wrapper. I work very close with our engineering teams to solve these use cases in “oc cluster” or “minishift” depending on the nature of the problem, as even if they both can stand up an OpenShift all-in-one instance for local development, they both have different goals. jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp minishift build http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-19-chained-builds/ Wed, 19 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 Wed, 19 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-19-chained-builds/ OpenShift provides different options for building and deploying containers on the platform. These generally include: Build and deploy from application source code - Users can specify the location of their source code in a GIT repository. OpenShift will build the application binaries, then build the container images that include those binaries and deploy to OpenShift. Users can also specify a dockerfile as the source code to build container images from. jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp minishift build http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-08-developing-locally-openshift-minishift/ Sat, 08 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 Sat, 08 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-08-developing-locally-openshift-minishift/ We finally get to the last post of the series, and in this post I will introduce you to the tool that Developers will be using soon. It’s still not final and yet many features need to be planned and included, but will overcome all the problems I described in my previous posts. There’s already a good blog post from Lalatendu Mohanty about what CDKv3 is so I will not go into many details. jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp minishift cdk http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-06-developing-locally-openshift-origin-all-in-one/ Thu, 06 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-06-developing-locally-openshift-origin-all-in-one/ At the time OpenShift started, we realized that having a local development environment was important to make iterative development work more agile. Back then, the requirements that we had for a local development environment were pretty clear: It needs to work on linux, mac and windows It needs to be easy to run It needs to be easily disposable Resources used need to be adjustable jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp allinone cdk http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-05-developing-locally-openshift-state-of-the-art/ Wed, 05 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 Wed, 05 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-05-developing-locally-openshift-state-of-the-art/ OpenShift v3 launched a year and a half ago and during this time we’ve been looking at different ways to run a local OpenShift development environment on the developer’s laptop. In this series of articles I will be introducing the options we have been providing and most importantly, I will describe the evolution in our approach.. But before digging into any particular solution, we need to set the ground rules of what a local development environment is and why it is important. jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp oc-cluster allinone minishift cdk http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2016-10-20-developing-locally-with-openshift/ Thu, 20 Oct 2016 20:39:50 +0100 Thu, 20 Oct 2016 20:39:50 +0100 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2016-10-20-developing-locally-with-openshift/ In this blog, I’m going to describe what are my requirements when looking for a way to develop locally using OpenShift, and I’ll describe a tool I have created to help me with this workflow. First of all, I have to say that I’m not only a developer, so maybe the workflow I’m looking for is too complex, so I’m still experimenting to refine not only the workflow but also the tooling. jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp oc-cluster http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-07-developing-locally-openshift-oc-cluster/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 http://jorgemoral.es/posts/2017-04-07-developing-locally-openshift-oc-cluster/ Some time after we launched, we realized how easy it was to run OpenShift itself as a Docker container, as that’s one of the possible ways to install and run OpenShift. Our lead architect, Clayton Coleman, realized that since every developer will probably have the “oc” (OpenShift client) client tool available on their machines, it could be very easy to add some behaviour to that client to bootstrap a local OpenShift instance. jorgemoralespou openshift origin development local devexp oc-cluster
