You can run this example as node processes on your localhost, as pods on a local OpenShift Local installation.

To run the basic application on your local machine, just run the commands below:

$ npm install
$ npm start

This will launch the application on port 8080.

Other options:

• npm run dev same as npm start but with pretty output log.
• npm run dev:debug shows debug information.

OpenShift Local should be started, and you should be logged in with a currently active project. Then run the npm run openshift command.

$ crc setup # Set-up the hypervisor
$ crc start # Initialize the openshift cluster
$ oc login -u developer # Login
$ oc new-project my-example-project # Create a project to deploy to
$ npm run openshift # Deploys the example app
