Running the example in fabric8

It is assumed a running Kubernetes platform is already running. If not you can find details how to get started.

The example can be built and deployed using a single goal:

mvn fabric8:run

When the example runs in fabric8, you can use the OpenShift client tool to inspect the status

To list all the running pods:

oc get pods

Then find the name of the pod that runs this quickstart, and output the logs from the running pods with:

oc logs <name of pod>

You can also use the fabric8 web console to manage the running pods, and view logs and much more.

Access services using a web browser

When the application is running, you can use a web browser to access the service. Assuming that you have a Vagrant setup you can access the service with http://vertx-simplest-default.vagrant.f8/.

Notice: As it depends on your OpenShift setup, the hostname (route) might vary. Verify with oc get routes which hostname is valid for you.
