Keep secrets out of your source when working with OpenShift

These steps assume that you already have a working app on OpenShift. If you need help, you can get started here!

1. Find your app's ssh address

rhc app show YOUR_APP_NAME

2. ssh into your gear to set your environment variables:

ssh YOUR_APP_SSH_URL

Want to deploy an existing node.js Github project on OpenShift?

Give this recipe a try:

Add our OpenShift starter-code to your existing GitHub-hosted node.js application code:

cd $YOUR_PROJECT_FOLDER # This script assumes that your project is a git repo, with a git remote hosted on github.com
git remote add upstream -m master [email protected]:ryanj/nodejs-custom-version-openshift.git
git pull -s recursive upstream master # merge in a basic OpenShift skeleton

Open Source Mapping with PHP and MongoDB

In response to Steve's call for a shift toward civic-focused applications that are a better suited for adoption and maintenance by PHP-friendly IT departments, I've momentarily set aside OpenShift's shiny new nodejs-0.10 cartridge in order to show you how easy it is to write a basic single-page mapping application in PHP.

Those of you who are familiar with Steve's mapping quickstarts may recognize this application as a port of his own MongoDB-Python-Flask example which uses MongoDB's spatial features to perform a classic bounding-box query.

#Open Source Ribbons for OpenShift

Copy the following code into the bottom of your page:

<span id="fossribbon"><a href="https://openshift.redhat.com/app/console/application_types/custom?name=parks&initial_git_url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com/ryanj/restify-postGIS.git&cartridges[]=nodejs-0.10&cartridges[]=postgresql-9.2" >Run me on OpenShift</a></span>
Update your git repo url and cartridge dependencies
Include the attached CSS stylesheet

	#Add the following lines to your `~/.bashrc` to run "rhclone $app_name $cart_type $git_uri"
	# in order to quickly initialize an openshift gear
	# with an openshift-compatible cart (via a git repo uri).
	#
	# 'git' and 'rhc' command-line tools are required:
	function rhclone()
	{
	rhc app create $1 $2 && cd $1 && git remote add upstream -m master $3 && git pull -s recursive -X theirs upstream master && git push
	}
	export rhclone
