Cloud Foundry Applications (and buildpacks) on OpenShift

This repository contains the source for the bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry Docker image which lets you run applications that use Cloud Foundry buildpacks on top of OpenShift 3.

If you're interested in running Cloud Foundry applications on OpenShift then you should also check out https://github.com/bbrowning/ocf. That's a command-line tool that emulates cf push but deploys the applications to OpenShift instead of Cloud Foundry.

Note: As of right now, this only bundles the Java, Node.js, and Ruby buildpacks. Custom buildpacks can be provided by setting the BUILDPACK_URL environment variable in the build and deployment configurations.

Please report any bugs you find via GitHub issues.

Deploying a locally built Java application

This emulates the cf push target/some-app.jar command in Cloud Foundry. Replace target/some-app.jar with any executable jar or deployable war file. Read https://github.com/cloudfoundry/java-buildpack/blob/master/README.md for more information on supported application types.

Note: The -docker19 suffix here is temporary until OpenShift and/or the Red Hat CDK update to a newer Docker version that can consume automated builds from Docker Hub again.

oc new-build bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry-docker19 --binary=true --name=cf-test
oc start-build cf-test --from-file=target/some-app.jar --follow

Once the initial build is done, create a new application from this image and expose it to the outside world.

oc new-app cf-test
oc expose svc/cf-test

After the deploy finishes (check via oc status), use oc get routes to lookup the hostname and copy/paste that into your browser to test.

After making changes to the app locally, just run the oc start-build command and the application will redeploy after the new build finishes.

Deploying the Cloud Foundry sample Node application

oc new-app bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry-docker19~https://github.com/cloudfoundry-samples/cf-sample-app-nodejs.git --follow
oc expose svc/cf-sample-app-nodejs

Testing changes to this Docker image on OpenShift

First, clone this repository and cd into the newly cloned repo.

oc new-build --binary=true --name=cloudfoundryish
oc start-build cloudfoundryish --from-dir=. --follow

Then, use cloudfoundryish instead of bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry to subsequent oc new-build commands to use the locally changed image.

Releasing new versions of this image to Docker Hub

Automated builds are performed on every commit of this repo to the bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry Docker repository.

However, there's an additional repository that needs to be manually updated for Docker 1.9 users of bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry-docker19. To do that from inside the Red Hat CDK:

git clone git clone https://github.com/bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry
cd openshift-cloudfoundry
docker build -t bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry-docker19 .
docker tag bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry-docker19 registry-1.docker.io/bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry-docker19
docker login registry-1.docker.io
docker push registry-1.docker.io/bbrowning/openshift-cloudfoundry-docker19
