Using a custom builder image on Red Hat OpenShift with OpenShift Do

Daniel Helfand

One of the things I enjoy most about using Red Hat OpenShift is the Developer Catalog. The Developer Catalog is a central location where a team working with Red Hat OpenShift can encapsulate and share how application components and services are deployed. The Developer Catalog is often used to define an infrastructure pattern referred to as a builder image. A builder image is a container image that supports a particular language or framework, following best practices and Source-to-Image ( s2i)...

Getting started with go-toolset

Jakub Čajka

One of the new software collections we’ve introduced this fall is for Go, the programming language that aims to make it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software. Go is a compiled, statically typed language in the C/C++ tradition with garbage collection, concurrent programming support, and memory safety features. In go-toolset-7, we’re including everything you need to start programming in Go on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, in the familiar format of software collections. In this release, we’re shipping...

Testing acts as our safety net to allow for fast-paced feature development. This blog post is about our recent change in our testing strategy. It is not as boring as it might sound at first. ;-) Problem description We've changed out the data-model quite a lot and it took us a...

Basics of Go in Fedora

Jakub Čajka

Why use RPMs (distribution packages in general) at all ?! Distribution RPMs enables you to get signed curated content, with security updates, bug fixes, general updates, some level of testing, and known ways of reproducing the build locally. Of course, it has its cost mostly in the package size overhead and packaging infrastructure overhead (yum, dnf, apt....). Why package and use distribution (Fedora) packages? This helps to manage a stable subset of the go world. As many upstreams do not...

Using the Kubernetes Client for Go

Mike Dame

The Kubernetes client package for Go provides developers with a vast range of functions to access data and resources in a cluster. Taking advantage of its capabilities can allow the opportunity to build powerful controllers, monitoring and managing your cluster, beyond the scope of what is offered by stock OpenShift or Kubernetes setups. For example, the PodInterface allows you to list, update, delete, or get specific pods either by namespace or across all namespaces. This interface is complemented by similar...
