Lab Setup

Throughout the lab, we use two namespaces/projects:

  • d8f105-tools: This namespace/project will have all of the builds related objects
  • d8f105-dev: This namespace/project will have all the deployment related objects

If you're doing the self-paced training, use the tools and dev namespace that you created.

Assign yourself a unique name to be used during your application deployments.

For example, if the lab says to create an application named app1-[username], I would create an app named app1-stewartshea. This follows for any commands written in square grackets throughout the lab.

Lab Requirements

These labs will require access to the lab ocp environment:

Access requires an IDIR account. You can log in to OpenShift's web console via IDIR (preferred). For the self paced lab, your namespace access will be provisioned to your IDIR account, so you must use IDIR login. If your github account is a member of the bcgov github organisation and linked to an IDIR, it is also possible login with github, but your access will need to be set up manually. Github and IDIR accounts are treated seperately by OpenShift, so namespace access between these is independent.

Installing OC

You may already have oc installed on your machine. Your oc version should match the version of the cluster.

If you have oc installed run oc version. It should look something like this

Client Version: openshift-clients-4.6.0-202006250705.p0-176-g5797eaeca

If you do not have oc installed or your version is incorrect follow these instructions.

Login with OC command line

  1. In your command line interface, run the command oc login -w. This prompts your web browser to open.

  2. Login with your IDIR account (unless you've manually setup access via github)

Other Requirements

In addition, developers require GIT locally installed and must have a 2FA device to support access to GitHub.

Command Line Interfaces

You will find many examples commands and tricks that highly depend on your OS. These commands were developed on unix based systems. Window's Command Prompt will not work with these examples. You will need to either use WSL, Powershell, Gitbash, or similar.
