Odo - OpenShift do
What's Odo?
Odo (OpenShift do...) is a CLI tool that provides developers with fast and automated source code deployments. Odo supplements iterative development by using the power of OpenShift's Source-to-Image with the stableness of Kubernetes. Developers can immediately start coding while Odo builds, pushes and deploys the application in the background.
Features
- Multiple languages: Odo supports Node.JS, Ruby, .Net Core, Perl, PHP, Python and Java (including popular runtimes such as WildFly / JBoss EAP, Vert.x, Spring Boot etc.).
- Speed: Building your source code immediately after saving and deployed to your cluster.
- Reproducible: Allows for easy reproducibility by using tightly versioned Docker containers for your source code environment.
- Deployability: Easily deploy a new version, or have Odo automatically build and re-deploy your code on each change.
- Support for multiple components and microservices: Deploy only what you need. For example, having both a Ruby and a JavaScript application side-by-side.
- Serverless: No requirement for running a server to automate tasks. Odo talks to OpenShift directly through an API.
- Instant feedback: Deploy while making edits to files, showing direct and instant feedback.

Getting started with Odo
Wanted to get started? Follow the instructions below or our Katacoda tutorial:
Requirements
minishift
or an OpenShift environment 3.9.0+, the best way to deploy a development environment is using Minishift.
oc
If you do not have it, there's an excellent guide on the OpenShift site on how to install the latest client.
Deploying a Node.js application using Odo
For a quick tutorial on how Odo works, follow the instructions below! Otherwise, we have an excellent Katacoda tutorial or an in-depth getting started guide.
# Download the latest release!
$ curl -L https://github.com/redhat-developer/odo/raw/master/scripts/install.sh | bash
# Start your development environment
$ minishift start
# Download the Node.JS example directory
$ git clone https://github.com/openshift/nodejs-ex
$ cd nodejs-ex
# Create new nodejs component
$ odo create nodejs
# Now let's deploy your application!
$ odo push
# Last, we'll create a way to access the application
$ odo url create
nodejs - nodejs-myproject.192.168.42.147.nip.io
# Test it / visit the URL
$ curl nodejs-myproject.192.168.42.147.nip.io

Glossary
- Application: Is, well, your application! It consists of multiple microservices or components, that work individually to build the entire application.
- Component: can be thought of as a microservice. Multiple components will make up an application. A component will have different attributes like storage, etc.
Multiple component types are currently supported, like nodejs, perl, php, python, ruby, etc.
