  • docker push us.icr.io/$MY_NAMESPACE/books:v1
  • ibmcloud cr images
  • oc tag us.icr.io/$MY_NAMESPACE/books:v1
  • books:v1 –reference-policy=local –scheduled

Let’s edit the title <h1>books – v1</h1>,

  • change it to include your name. <h1>Lovelake4u books – v1</h1>.
  • and Save File…

Step 5) its time to Deploy Redis

  • Deploy Redis master and slave
  • cd ../../v2
  • cat redis-master-deployment.yaml
  • oc apply -f redis-master-deployment.yaml
  • oc get deployments
  • oc get pods

 

  • cat redis-master-service.yaml
  • oc apply -f redis-master-service.yaml
  • cat redis-slave-deployment.yaml
  • oc apply -f redis-slave-deployment.yaml
  • oc get deployments
  • oc get pods
  • cat redis-slave-service.yaml
  • oc apply -f redis-slave-service.yaml
  • Deploy v2 books app

  • Create a Tone Analyzer service instance
  • Go to the IBM Cloud catalog. Click Here
  • login with your ibm account.
  • Search Tone Analyzer
  • Click on it …. select lite version click create..

 

Get Back to Virtual Lab…

  • ibmcloud login -u [your id]
  • it will ask your password ttpe and verify it
  • after this Set organizatrion
  • ibmcloud target -o [org_name]
  • after this Set space name
  • ibmcloud target -s [space_name]

 

 

Run this to get your id name

oc project

//Copy id and paste it on <resource_group> it look like 55417815442sdas1asd4

ibmcloud target -g <resource_group>

Use the Explorer to edit binding-hack.sh.

  • The path to this file is
  • books/v2/binding-hack.sh.
  • You need to insert your OpenShift project where it says <my_project>.

 

After Run This..

./binding-hack.sh

  • Log back into the lab account.
  • ibmcloud login –apikey $IBMCLOUD_API_KEY

 

cd analyzer

  • docker build . -t us.icr.io/$MY_NAMESPACE/analyzer:v1 && docker push us.icr.io/$MY_NAMESPACE/analyzer:v1
  • cd ..

echo $MY_NAMESPACE

// Copy your namespace…

Use the Explorer to edit this file ( analyzer-deployment.yaml )

file path: books/v2/analyzer-deployment.yaml

You need to insert your Container Registry namespace where it says <my_namespace>

 

Step 7) analyzer Deployment.

  • memory: 40Mi
  • Click Save.

Switch to the Administrator perspective.

  • Switch to Administrator perspective.

  • kind: Deployment
  • name: books
  • minReplicas: 1
