Openshift Cheat SheetEdit Cheat Sheet

Helm

Client Setup
# Follow instructions from GUI setup and download client
oc login

Settings are stored in ~/.kube/config

CLI Commands
Note: all Kubernetes commands work with the oc client. So also check Kubernetes

oc login [<cluster>]
oc projects # List projects
oc project <project> # Switch project
oc new-project <project>
oc whoami -t # Get current session API token

Creating application from remote repo

oc new-app https://github.com/name/project
oc new-app https://github.com/name/project --context-dir=<build dir>

For actual builds from a directory. Careful! If this is a git repo this won't work as the remote git
repo will be used!

oc new-app --name=<application> .
oc start-build <application> --from-dir . # Force build from dir (even if it is a
git repo)
oc start-build <application> -F # Wait for completion and print full
build log
oc start-build <application> -w # Wait for completion

List available S2I templates

oc new-app --list

Use specific template


oc new-app https://github.com/name/project --template=<template>

Cluster Administration
Removing/Readding nodes

oc adm drain <node> # Evacuates all pods with replication controllers


oc adm uncordon <node> # Readd node for pod scheduling

Initial Setup
Commands derived from jaxenter.com for Openshift:

Set initial admin pwd

Either use

oc login -u system:admin

or create credential on master

sudo htpasswd -b /etc/openshift/openshift-passwd admin <your_pass>

Print per cluster node resource usage

oc get nodes --no-headers | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -I {} sh -c 'echo {}; oc describe
node {} | grep Allocated -A 5 | grep -ve Event -ve Allocated -ve percent -ve -- ;
echo'

Creating service accounts

Creating a "root" service account:

oc create serviceaccount <name>


oc adm policy add-cluster-role-to-user cluster-admin -z <name>
oc sa get-token <name>

Working with Templates


Create a template from an existing project

oc export all [-l app=<name>] --as-template my_project >template.yaml

Note that the resulting JSON will have no parameters yet. You'll have to identify places to
replace with parameters (syntax is "${PARAMETER}") and to declare those parameters.

Orchestration
 Using Terraform with Openshift

Migrating Services to Openshift


 Middleware
 Couchbase
 Kafka (using Helm)
 Runtimes
 Nodejs
 Ruby
 Frameworks
 Spring Boot Stack

Misc
 Turning off sticky sessions:

oc annotate route haproxy.router.openshift.io/disable_cookies='true'

 Securing inter-service communication with certificates: done via annotations at the


service indicating a TLS cert/key in a secret

apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata: annotations: service.alpha.openshift.io/serving-


cert-secret-name:
