Chapter 4. Creating a GitHub personal access token
To install the Fabric8 Launcher tool on a Single-node OpenShift Cluster, you must provide the Fabric8 Launcher tool with a GitHub personal access token. This enables the Fabric8 Launcher tool to create booster applications and save them as Git repositories in your GitHub namespace.
Procedure
-
Using a web browser, navigate to
https://github.com/settings/tokens. - Select Generate new token.
-
Add a token description, for example
Fabric8 Launcher tool on a Single-node OpenShift Cluster. Select the check boxes of the following parent scopes and all their children:
-
public_repo -
read:org -
admin:repo_hook
-
- Click Generate token.
Save the hex code of the personal access token. You need this to complete the installation of the Fabric8 Launcher tool on your Single-node OpenShift Cluster.
ImportantThis hex code is displayed only once and cannot be retrieved after you leave the page. If you lose the code, you will need to create a new personal access token to install the Fabric8 Launcher tool on a Single-node OpenShift Cluster again.
