NationalParks backend application

Installation

As the application needs to interact with openshift’s API, you’ll need to provide some permissions to the default ServiceAccount for that.

Assuming you’re using the project workshop:

oc new-project workshop
oc policy add-role-to-user view system:serviceaccount:workshop:default

Deploy from source code

oc new-app https://github.com/openshift-roadshow/nationalparks.git

Deploy via Template

oc create -f ./ose3/application-template.json
oc new-app nationalparks

There’s some options that can be parameterized:

• APPLICATION_NAME: Name of the application

• MAVEN_MIRROR_URL: Url of a maven mirror

• APPLICATION_HOSTNAME: Hostname/route to access your application

Example:

oc new-app nationalparks -p APPLICATION_HOSTNAME=nationalparks-roadshow.127.0.0.1.xip.io -p MAVEN_MIRROR_URL=http://nexus.ci:8081/content/groups/public
