Chapter 3. Creating and deploying a booster using your Single-node OpenShift Cluster

You can quickly create, build, and deploy a booster to a Single-node OpenShift Cluster using the Fabric8 Launcher tool. The Fabric8 Launcher tool creates a new repository in your GitHub account containing the booster’s code and deploys it to your Single-node OpenShift Cluster. It can also create a ZIP of the booster for you to download and run on your localhost.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the Fabric8 Launcher tool on your Single-node OpenShift Cluster using your browser.

    • Optionally, use the following command to open the Web Console of your Single-node OpenShift Cluster in your browser in order to navigate to your Fabric8 Launcher tool:

      $ minishift console
  2. Select Launch Your Project.
  3. Follow the instructions to create a booster based on a mission, runtime, and target environment.
  4. Open the README.adoc file in your booster project for more details about interacting with your booster.
