The Developing with odo Workshop provides a deep introduction to the OpenShift Do (odo) command line tool. odo provides a simplified command line client for deploying applications to OpenShift. Participants will learn how to create and deploy applications, how to use interactive mode, how to link components and services, and how to do iterative development.

The workshop is found in the catalog under the Workshops folder and is named OCP4 Workshop Developing with ODO.
Once the cluster is deployed, follow the directions in the next section to begin the workshop itself.
Login to the cluster.

Access homeroom URL with OpenShift authentication. Users will enter the following information:
| Key | Value |
|---|---|
| Username | userX (e.g. user1) |
| Password | openshift |
After logging in, the workshop takes a few seconds to start:
Once the workshop begins, users are presented with a two panel interface:
On the left are the instructions users will follow for the workshop. The workshop itself explains how to use the interface, but generally speaking users will follow the directions on the left, with navigation buttons appearing at the end of each section. Text that is highlighted with a yellow background may be clicked to have the operation automatically executed in the cluster on the right.
By default, users are presented with the terminal, which contains (among other things) an authenticated oc client.
WARNING: Homeroom is EOL, this way to deploy it outside RHPDS is not supported anymore.
To deploy the workshop, first clone a copy of the master branch of this Git repository to your own machine using the command:
git clone --single-branch --branch master --recurse-submodules //github.com/openshift-labs/lab-developing-with-odo.gitChange the working directory to lab-developing-with-odo.
If you forgot to use the --recurse-submodules option when cloning the repository, run:
git submodule update --init --recursiveNext create a project in OpenShift into which the workshop is to be deployed.
oc new-project labs
From within the top level of the Git repository, now run:
./.workshop/scripts/deploy-spawner.sh
The name of the deployment will be developing-with-odo.
To delete the spawner and any active sessions, including projects, run:
./.workshop/scripts/delete-spawner.sh
To delete the build configuration for the workshop image, run:
./.workshop/scripts/delete-workshop.sh
To delete special resources for CRDs and cluster roles for the Kafa operator, run:
./.workshop/scripts/delete-resources.sh
Only delete these last set of resources if the Kafa operator is not being used elsewhere in the cluster. Ideally this workshop environment should only be deployed in an expendable cluster, and not one which is shared for other work.
The deployment created above will use a version of the workshop which has been pre-built into an image and which is hosted on quay.io.
To make changes to the workshop content and test them, edit the files in the Git repository and then run:
./.workshop/scripts/build-workshop.sh
This will replace the existing image used by the active deployment.
If you are running an existing instance of the workshop, from your web browser select "Restart Workshop" from the menu top right of the workshop environment dashboard.
When you are happy with your changes, push them back to the remote Git repository. This will automatically trigger a new build of the image hosted on quay.io.
If you need to change the RBAC definitions, or what resources are created when a project is created, change the definitions in the templates directory. You can then re-run:
./.workshop/scripts/deploy-spawner.sh
and it will update the active definitions.
Note that if you do this, you will need to re-run:
./.workshop/scripts/build-workshop.sh
to have any local content changes be used once again as it will revert back to using the image on quay.io.
NOTE: If you want to update the version of the workshop scripts used with your workshop, run again the git submodule update --remote command. Then update the version of the dashboard base image in the Dockerfile to match.
git submodule update --remote
(. .workshop/scripts/default-settings.sh; sed -i -e "s%^FROM .*$%FROM $DASHBOARD_IMAGE%" Dockerfile)
