The IBM DataPower operator v1.0.1 is now available. The IBM DataPower Operator deploys and manages configurations defined by the DataPowerService Custom Resource specification. The documentation for the operator can be accessed from the link https://ibm.github.io/datapower-operator-doc/.

This repository has the artifacts to deploy an IBM DataPowerService instance using a custom application domain in Red Hat OpenShift Cluster Platform v4.4.

The following steps can be followed to deploy the IBM DataPowerService instance.

1. Setup custom repository
2. Test the sample DataPower application domain locally
3. Install DataPower Operator
4. Install DataPowerService instance
5. Test DataPowerService instance running on OpenShift Cluster
6. Uninstall DataPowerService instance

Follow GitHub’s documentation on how to fork a repo to create your own fork of the cp4i-datapower repository.

After forking the repository, you can download the copy of your repository to the sandbox.

Related commands are listed below.

cd ~
git clone [email protected]:rsundara/cp4i-datapower.git

For testing the sample application domain, it is required to have docker running locally in your sandbox. The link https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/ can be used as a reference to jump-start the docker setup process.

The script testLocalDataPower.sh can be used to test application domain locally. The script starts IBM DataPower in a container and uses local directories to load the DataPower configuration.

The following commands can be run to test the application domain locally.

cd ~/cp4i-datapower/utils
./testLocalDataPower.sh

Sample startup log is available for reference testLocalDataPower.log.

The admin access can be verified by accessing port 9090 using the link https://localhost:9090/

The demo service access can be verified by accessing port 6443 using the link https://localhost:6443/demo.html

The script createCatalog.sh can be run to create custom catalog source.

cd ~/cp4i-datapower/utils
./createCatalog.sh

Once the custom catalog source has been created, Login to the OpenShift Cluster and using the Operator Hub, IBM DataPower Operator can be installed.

The following page will be displayed, and you can click Subscribe to have the IBM DataPower operator installed.

The script install.sh can be run to install DataPowerService instance. The script performs the following tasks:

• Create configMap to enable web-mgmt service
• Create configMap to hold DataPower config (IDP.cfg) used by the sample application domain
• Create configMap to hold all the local files referenced by the sample application domain
• create secrets to hold the crypto certfificate (IDP-sscert.pem) and crypto key (IDP-privkey.pem) referenced by the application domain
• Create secret to hold the admin-credentials
• Create Serivce to expose port 6443 and 9090
• Create Routes dp-admin and dp-demo to expose the service
• Create DataPowerService

cd ~/cp4i-datapower/datapower-services/dp-demo/scripts/
./install.sh

Sample install log is available for reference installDataPower.log.

The following command can be run to retrieve the route for the admin service:

oc get routes -n datapower | grep dp-admin | awk -F' ' '{print $2 }'

The admin access can be verified by accessing route for the target port 9090 using the link https://dp-admin.OPENSHIFT_CLUSTER_DOMAIN_SUFFIX:9090/

The following command can be run to retrieve the route for the demo service:

oc get routes -n datapower | grep dp-demo | awk -F' ' '{print $2 }'

The demo service can be verified by accessing route for the target port 6443 using the link https://dp-demo.OPENSHIFT_CLUSTER_DOMAIN_SUFFIX:6443/demo.html

The script uninstall.sh can be run to uninstall an DataPowerService instance. The script deletes all of the resources (DataPowerService, ConfgMaps, Secrets, Service and Routes) created by the install script.

cd ~/cp4i-datapower/datapower-services/dp-demo/scripts/
./uninstall.sh

Sample uninstall log is available for reference uninstallDataPower.log.
