!!STOP RUNNING YOUR APPS (AND WEB BUILDS) AS ROOT!!

To use this source-to-image builder, your application will need to listen on 8080 when initialized via npm start

Build, Installation, Usage notes, and sources are all available at github.com/ryanj/origin-s2i-nodejs

Available Node.JS releases are listed as tags on this repo. The "latest" runtime builds are:

• 6.3.1, 6, current
• 5.12.0, 5
• 4.4.7, 4, lts
• 0.12.15, 0.12
• 0.10.46, 0.10

You can run a build (without requiring root context), using the s2i command line tool:

s2i build https://github.com/ryanj/pillar-base ryanj/centos7-s2i-nodejs:current pillarjs

If you prefer using standard "docker build" tooling, an ONBUILD-style image is available at: ryanj/centos7-nodejs

OpenShift and the oc command-line tool can also be used to schedule a NodeJS application build (and deployment) using tagged releases from this image:

oc new-app ryanj/centos7-s2i-nodejs:current~http://github.com/ryanj/pillar-base

For the official SCL-packaged NodeJS binaries, see github.com/sclorg/s2i-nodejs-container

Installation

OpenShift administrators can make these NodeJS releases available globally (visible in all projects, by all users) by adding them to the openshift namespace:

oc create -n openshift -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ryanj/origin-s2i-nodejs/master/image-streams.json

To replace the default SCL-packaged openshift/nodejs image (admin access required), run:

oc delete is/nodejs -n openshift ; oc create -n openshift -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ryanj/origin-s2i-nodejs/master/centos7-s2i-nodejs.json

Installation for OpenShift Online Next-Gen Developer Preview

Normal users, or those without admin privileges (as with OpenShift Online) can install the latest nodejs releases within their project context with:

oc create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ryanj/origin-s2i-nodejs/master/image-streams.json

To ensure that each of the latest NodeJS release tags are available and displayed correctly in the web UI, try upgrading / reinstalling the imageStream:

oc delete is/centos7-s2i-nodejs ; oc create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ryanj/origin-s2i-nodejs/master/image-streams.json

If you've (automatically) imported this image using the oc new-app example command, then you may need to replace the auto-generated image stream reference (as described above) in order to gain access to the full list of nodejs runtime releases.
