OpenShift DIY cartridge
A quickstart guide for deploying Vert.x 3 applications on OpenShift using the DIY cartridge.
Overview
This project provides a template and instructions for deploying Vert.x 3 applications on the OpenShift platform using the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) cartridge. It enables developers to run reactive, non-blocking applications on OpenShift with Java 8 support, even though the DIY cartridge does not support automatic scaling.
Key Features
- OpenShift DIY Cartridge Integration — Uses the DIY cartridge to deploy Vert.x applications on OpenShift.
- Java 8 Provisioning — Includes scripts to install Java 8 if not already available on the OpenShift environment.
- Fat Jar Deployment — Supports deploying Vert.x applications packaged as executable fat jars.
- Environment-Aware Binding — Configures the HTTP server to bind to OpenShift-provided IP and port via environment variables.
- Git-Based Deployment — Leverages Git pushes to trigger application redeployment on OpenShift.
Philosophy
The project focuses on simplicity and practicality, providing a straightforward method to run Vert.x applications on OpenShift despite the cartridge's scalability limitations, making it accessible for development and testing scenarios.
