devspaces-developer-image Project

Used to describe the process of creating custom images in a cicd way for OpenShift Dev Spaces. Image gets pushed to quay, so a user secret is needed.

Prerequisites

Assuming you are using this project as a part of the devspaces-demo project, you will have the steps described in the Readme there already completed. You will need to create the quay.io secret in the devspaces-image namespace as well.

oc project devspaces-image

oc get secret quay-secret -o json \
| jq 'del(.metadata["namespace","creationTimestamp","resourceVersion","selfLink","uid"])' \
| oc apply -n devspaces-demo -f -

oc secret link pipeline quay-secret

This project shows a full circle for a workspace environment with connected pipelines and gitops. To deploy (and after you have completed the prerequisites), configure the argoapp.yaml file and apply it in your namespace via:

oc apply -f argoapp.yaml

Bugfixing:

PVC stuck - delete pvc

The pvcs are configured to be not deleted at helm uninstall. You should always delete them manually.

If some pvc gets stuck you can fix this via

oc patch pvc <pvc-name> -p '{"metadata":{"finalizers": []}}' --type=merge
