Developer Activity: Create a new Component from the Template
Please make sure you are logged in as a Developer with dev1/{common_password} as you were guided to in the previous step.
|
Create a new software Component and supporting infrastructure using the Quarkus Service template that was created by the platform engineer:
-
Select the Create item from the side menu.
-
Click the Choose button on the Quarkus Service. The Software Templates screen will be displayed.
-
In Step 1, you’ll be prompted to enter a set of application parameters. Thankfully, defaults are provided by the template, so you can simply click Next.
-
In Step 2, when prompted to Provide Image Registry Information:
-
Select the Quay image registry.
-
Enter your Quay password:
{common_password} -
Click Next.
Your username is automatically determined by the Template using your current session. 
-
-
In Step 3, select the default Repository Location and click Review.
-
Confirm you’re satisfied with your parameters and click Create.
-
After a few moments the process should be finished, and you’ll see a screen with a series of green checkmarks.
-
Click the Open Component in catalog link to view the new Component. You’ll see links to the GitLab repository (View Source link) and note that you’re listed as the owner since you created the Component.
-
Select the CI tab to view the status of the OpenShift Pipelines (Tekton) build.
-
Wait for the build to complete, and visit the dev1 organization in Quay. You’ll be able to view the new my-quarkus-app repository and see the newly pushed latest image tag.
-
In the next section you’ll learn how to enable and disable different plugin integrations with your Components, using OpenShift GitOps (Argo CD) as an example.
