This project serves as a minimal template for an Openshift dynamic plugin. It shows basic operations with a Custom Resource Definition (CRD), in this case CronTab CRD, such as creating, editing and deleting.

It requires OpenShift 4.11.

The CronTab Dynamic Plugin creates a new navigation entry, list page, details page, and YAML template for the CRD.

Before you can deploy your plugin on a cluster, you must build an image and push it to an image registry.

1. Build the image:

   NOTE: If you have a Mac with Apple silicon, you will need to add the flag --platform=linux/amd64 when building the image to target the correct platform to run in-cluster.

   docker build -f Dockerfile -t $NAME/console-crontab-plugin:latest . --no-cache

2. Push the image:

   docker push $NAME/console-crontab-plugin:latest

A Helm chart is available to deploy the plugin to an OpenShift environment.

To deploy the plugin on a cluster using a Helm chart:

helm upgrade -i console-crontab-plugin charts/console-crontab-plugin -n console-crontab-plugin-ns --create-namespace --set plugin.image=docker.io/$NAME/console-crontab-plugin:latest

-i console-crontab-plugin: specifies installation of a release named console-crontab-plugin

-n console-crontab-plugin-ns --create-namespace: creates a new namespace for the helm chart

plugin.image: Specifies the location of the image containing the plugin, to be deployed

Additional parameters can be specified if desired. Consult the chart values file for the full set of supported parameters.
