Red Hat OpenShift is the industry’s most comprehensive enterprise Kubernetes platform, and operators are the modern way to automate infrastructure management tasks. A new Joget Operator has now been released to further simplify and accelerate app development on Red Hat OpenShift. It has achieved Red Hat OpenShift Operator Certification, and is now available in the OpenShift Embedded OperatorHub.

Tutorial Part 1: Install Joget Operator from the OperatorHub

...

  1. Now that the Joget Operator has been installed, login to the OpenShift console as a normal user.



  2. Browse to Projects and click on the Create Project button. Enter a name and click on Create.



  3. As a prerequisite, you will need to deploy either a MySQL or MariaDB database in the project.

  4. The fastest way to deploy MySQL would be to use the OpenShift CLI e.g.: 

    Code Block
    # deploy persistent mysql
export DB_APP_NAME=joget-mysql
export MYSQL_DATABASE=jwdb
export MYSQL_USER=joget
export MYSQL_PASSWORD=joget

oc new-app openshift/mysql-persistent --name $DB_APP_NAME -p DATABASE_SERVICE_NAME=$DB_APP_NAME -p MYSQL_USER=$MYSQL_USER -p MYSQL_PASSWORD=$MYSQL_PASSWORD -p MYSQL_DATABASE=$MYSQL_DATABASE
  5. Alternatively, you can deploy using the OpenShift Console. For MySQL, you can use either the public docker hub image centos/mysql-57-centos7, or the certified one from the Red Hat Registry registry.redhat.io/rhscl/mysql-57-rhel7. 

  6. To access images from the Red Hat Registry, you will need to create a Secret containing a valid Red Hat login. If you do not have an account, you can acquire one by registering for one of the following options:
    1. Red Hat Developer Program. This account gives you access to developer tools and programs.
    2. 30-day Trial Subscription. This account gives you a 30-day trial subscription with access to select Red Hat software products.

  7. Browse to Workloads > Secret, select Image Pull Secret from the Create dropdown and key in the Red Hat registry server and login information e.g.

    1. Registry Server Address: registry.redhat.io
    2. Username: Red Hat login username
    3. Password: Red Hat login password
       
  8. Browse to the project, and click on Add > Deploy Image.



  9. For MySQL, enter either centos/mysql-57-centos7 or registry.redhat.io/rhscl/mysql-57-rhel7 for the Image Name and click on the Search icon.



  10. Key in the following configuration and click on Deploy.  



    1. Name: joget-mysql
    2. Environment Variables:
      1. MYSQL_DATABASE: jwdb
      2. MYSQL_USER: joget
      3. MYSQL_PASSWORD: joget 

  11. Click on the name to verify that the MySQL database has been deployed successfully.



    Info
    IMPORTANT NOTE: By default, the data in this MySQL image is not persistent across container restarts. You will need to mount the volume to make the data persistent. Alternatively, deploy a persistent MySQL using a template using the OpenShift CLI described earlier.
