Rework helloworld Go operator example to Ansible operator #391

Closed t-fine closed 3 years ago

t-fine commented 3 years ago

Originally this issue was opened in the docs repo here: https://github.ibm.com/Edge-Fabric/docs/issues/629

Instead of having an the examples operator service example being based on go, it should probably be done in either helm or ansible to make it a bit simpler. Go operators have a large controller file where the image that you're trying to deploy needs to be specified (along with any options like exposed ports) and it just seems a little unnecessarily complex. Instead if it's an sensible or helm operator we should be able to guide them thru the process from operator-sdk new to taring it up and deploying it with the agent

Slack comments about this:

Glen: How about just showing the steps needed to publish an already existing docker container? Maybe use one that need a port exposed. Kind of like the steps I show in https://github.com/TheMosquito/easy-open-horizon but for operators instead of just docker.

And maybe make a short video like this one to show it being used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk9zJyExELU&list=PLgohd895XSUddtseFy4HxCqTqqlYfW8Ix&index=5
