This repo demonstrates openshift v3 s2i scripts usage

In order to use openshift s2i image create directory .s2i and files under s2i as follows
To Install s2i command line tool https://github.com/debianmaster/Notes/wiki/Source-2-Image---(s2i)--on-openshift

This file is used dynamically adding artifacts into base image and creating a app image as a result.

cp -Rf /tmp/src/. $CATALINA_HOME/webapps
echo "WAR's copied"

This file is used for mentioning startup script.

${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/catalina.sh run

tomcat8-jdk8 is my future builder image name

docker build -t tomcat8-jdk8 .

on base image tomcat8-jdk8 deploy the war (contents) that is present in test/test-app and make a app image called (tomcat8-jdk8-app)

s2i build test/test-app tomcat8-jdk8 tomcat8-jdk8-app

docker run -d  -p 8080:8080  tomcat8-jdk8-app 

oc import-image --from=openshift/base-centos7 openshift/base-centos7 -n openshift --confirm
oc new-build --strategy=docker --name=tomcat8-jdk8 https://github.com/debianmaster/openshift-s2i-example.git -n openshift
oc create -f tomcat8-jdk8-war.template

Goto ui -> Add to project and look for tomcat8-jdk8-war template. In the step above we are creating a base image with tomcat and java and storing it on openshift namespace

You can skip the part below unless you want to know how i have create the tomcat8-jdk8-war.template file in this repo

i have arrived at the template tomcat8-jdk8-war.template in this repo by creating following objects indivudually and then creating a template out of it. (with few modifications)

oc new-app tomcat8-jdk8~https://github.com/debianmaster/sample-binaries.git --name='tomcat8-jdk8-war'
oc export is,bc,dc,svc --as-template=tomcat8-jdk8  > template

Modify the template above and rename it as tomcat8-jdk8-war.template
