This example shows how to run OpenShift Origin as a pod on an existing Kubernetes cluster.

This example demonstrates usage of a pod with a secret volume mount.
OpenShift Origin runs with a rich set of role based policy rules out of the box that requires authentication from users
via certificates. When run as a pod on an existing Kubernetes cluster, it proxies access to the underlying Kubernetes services
to provide security.

As a result, this example is a complex end-to-end configuration that shows how to configure certificates for a service that runs
on Kubernetes, and requires a number of configuration files to be injected dynamically via a secret volume to the pod.

### Step 0: Prerequisites

This example assumes that you have a basic understanding of Kubernetes and that you have forked the repository and [turned up a Kubernetes cluster](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes#contents):
This example assumes that you have an understanding of Kubernetes and that you have forked the repository.

OpenShift Origin creates privileged containers when running Docker builds during the source-to-image process.

This example has been tested against the **gce** and **vagrant** based KUBERNETES_PROVIDER.
If you are using a Salt based KUBERNETES_PROVIDER (**gce**, **vagrant**, **aws**), you should enable the
ability to create privileged containers via the API.

```shell
$ cd kubernetes
$ vi cluster/saltbase/pillar/privilege.sls

# If true, allow privileged containers to be created by API
allow_privileged: true
```

Now spin up a cluster using your preferred KUBERNETES_PROVIDER

```shell
$ export KUBERNETES_PROVIDER=gce
$ hack/dev-build-and-up.sh
$ cluster/kube-up.sh
```

### Step 1: Generate resources
Next, let's setup some variables, and create a local folder that will hold generated configuration files.

The demonstration will require the following resources:
```shell
$ export OPENSHIFT_EXAMPLE=$(pwd)/examples/openshift-origin
$ export OPENSHIFT_CONFIG=${OPENSHIFT_EXAMPLE}/config
$ mkdir ${OPENSHIFT_CONFIG}
```

1. A Kubernetes Secret that contains information needed to securely communicate to your Kubernetes master as an administrator
2. A Kubernetes Pod that contains information for how to run OpenShift Origin that consumes this Secret securely
3. A Kubernetes Service that exposes OpenShift Origin API via an external load balancer
4. A Kubernetes Service that exposes OpenShift Origin UI via an external load balancer
### Step 1: Export your Kubernetes configuration file for use by OpenShift pod

To generate these resources, we will run a script that introspects your configured KUBERNETES_PROVIDER:
OpenShift Origin uses a configuration file to know how to access your Kubernetes cluster with administrative authority.

```shell
$ examples/openshift-origin/resource-generator.sh
```
A Kubernetes Secret was generated that contains the following data:
$ cluster/kubectl.sh config view --output=yaml --flatten=true --minify=true > ${OPENSHIFT_CONFIG}/kubeconfig
```

The output from this command will contain a single file that has all the required information needed to connect to your
Kubernetes cluster that you previously provisioned. This file should be considered sensitive, so do not share this file with
untrusted parties.

1. kubeconfig: a valid kubeconfig file that is used by OpenShift Origin to communicate to the master
2. kube-ca: a certificate authority for the Kubernetes master
3. kube-auth-path: a Kubernetes authorization file
4. kube-cert: a Kubernetes certificate
5. kube-key: a Kubernetes key file
We will later use this file to tell OpenShift how to bootstap its own configuration.

As required by a Kubernetes secret, each piece of data is base64 encoded - with no line wraps.
### Step 2: Create an External Load Balancer to Route Traffic to OpenShift

An external load balancer is needed to route traffic to our OpenShift master service that will run as a pod on your
Kubernetes cluster.

You can view the file by doing:

```shell
$ cat examples/openshift-origin/secret.json
$ cluster/kubectl.sh create -f $OPENSHIFT_EXAMPLE/openshift-service.yaml
```

Caution: This file contains all of the required information to operate as a Kubernetes admin on your cluster, so only share this file with trusted parties.
### Step 3: Generate configuration file for your OpenShift master pod

The OpenShift master requires a configuration file as input to know how to bootstrap the system.

In order to build this configuration file, we need to know the public IP address of our external load balancer in order to
build default certificates.

A Kubernetes Pod file was generated that can run OpenShift Origin on your cluster.
Grab the public IP address of the service we previously created.

The OpenShift Origin pod file has a volume mount that references the Kubernetes secret we created to know how to work with the underlying Kubernetes provider.
```shell
$ export PUBLIC_IP=$(cluster/kubectl.sh get services openshift --template="{{ index .spec.publicIPs 0 }}")
$ echo $PUBLIC_IP
```

You can view the file by doing:
Ensure you have a valid PUBLIC_IP address before continuing in the example.

We now need to run a command on your host to generate a proper OpenShift configuration. To do this, we will volume mount the configuration directory that holds your Kubernetes kubeconfig file from the prior step.

```shell
$ cat examples/openshift-origin/pod.json
docker run --privileged -v ${OPENSHIFT_CONFIG}:/config openshift/origin start master --write-config=/config --kubeconfig=/config/kubeconfig --master=https://localhost:8443 --public-master=https://${PUBLIC_IP}:8443
```

Finally, a Kubernetes service was generated for the UI and the API and available via an external load balancer:
You should now see a number of certificates minted in your configuration directory, as well as a master-config.yaml file that tells the OpenShift master how to execute. In the next step, we will bundle this into a Kubernetes Secret that our OpenShift master pod will consume.

### Step 4: Bundle the configuration into a Secret

``shell
$ cat examples/openshift-origin
We now need to bundle the contents of our configuration into a secret for use by our OpenShift master pod.

### Step 2: Create the secret in Kubernetes
OpenShift includes an experimental command to make this easier.

First, update the ownership for the files previously generated:

```
$ sudo -E chown ${USER} -R ${OPENSHIFT_CONFIG}
```

To provision the secret on Kubernetes:
Then run the following command to collapse them into a Kubernetes secret.

```shell
$ cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/openshift-origin/secret.json
docker run -i -t --privileged -e="OPENSHIFTCONFIG=/config/admin.kubeconfig" -v ${OPENSHIFT_CONFIG}:/config openshift/origin ex bundle-secret openshift-config -f /config &> ${OPENSHIFT_EXAMPLE}/secret.json
```

You should see your secret resource was created by listing:
Now, lets create the secret in your Kubernetes cluster.

```shell
$ cluster/kubectl.sh get secrets
$ cluster/kubectl.sh create -f ${OPENSHIFT_EXAMPLE}/secret.json
```

### Step 3: Provisioning OpenShift Origin
**NOTE: This secret is secret and should not be shared with untrusted parties.**

### Step 5: Deploy OpenShift Master

To create the OpenShift Origin pod:
We are now ready to deploy OpenShift.

We will deploy a pod that runs the OpenShift master. The OpenShift master will delegate to the underlying Kubernetes
system to manage Kubernetes specific resources. For the sake of simplicity, the OpenShift master will run with an embedded etcd to hold OpenShift specific content. This demonstration will evolve in the future to show how to run etcd in a pod so that content is not destroyed if the OpenShift master fails.

```shell
$ cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/openshift-origin/pod.json
$ cluster/kubectl.sh create -f ${OPENSHIFT_EXAMPLE}/openshift-controller.yaml
```

### Step 4: Provisioning OpenShift Origin Services

To create the OpenShift Origin Services that expose the API and UI:
You should now get a pod provisioned whose name begins with openshift.

```shell
$ cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/openshift-origin/ui-service.json
$ cluster/kubectl.sh create -f examples/openshift-origin/api-service.json
$ cluster/kubectl.sh get pods | grep openshift
$ cluster/kubectl.sh log openshift-t7147 origin
Running: cluster/../cluster/gce/../../cluster/../_output/dockerized/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl log openshift-t7t47 origin
2015-04-30T15:26:00.454146869Z I0430 15:26:00.454005 1 start_master.go:296] Starting an OpenShift master, reachable at 0.0.0.0:8443 (etcd: [https://10.0.27.2:4001])

```

### Step 5: Open Firewall Ports
Depending upon your cloud provider, you may need to open up an external firewall rule for tcp:8443

If you are running on GCE, you need to open the following ports:
Consult your cloud provider's documentation for more information.

```shell
$ gcloud compute instances list
Open a browser and visit the OpenShift master public address reported in your log.

FIND THE MINION NAME PREFIX
You can use the CLI commands by running the following:

$ gcloud compute firewall-rules create openshift-origin-node-8444 --allow tcp:8444 --target-tags kubernetes-minion-prq8
$ gcloud compute firewall-rules create openshift-origin-node-8443 --allow tcp:8443 --target-tags kubernetes-minion-prq8
```shell
$ docker run --privileged --entrypoint="/usr/bin/bash" -it -e="OPENSHIFTCONFIG=/config/admin.kubeconfig" -v ${OPENSHIFT_CONFIG}:/config openshift/origin
$ osc config use-context public-default
$ osc --help
```
### Step 4: Try out OpenShift Origin
