# 1. Introduction
-----
## General
**CAUTION: this is experimental. Still a lot to be done.**
What follows is a tutorial on how to build images on an OpenShift cluster in a three-step process
(base image, build artifact image, target image). Note that all image
streams/build configs assume the OC project/namespace `oaicicd-ran`.
-----
If you want to regenerate images from modified sources, you have to rebuild
the ran-build image. If you reinstalled dependencies, you have to restart from
ran-base.
# 1. Build pre-requisites #
You first need to login. Do:
```bash
oc login -u <username> -p <password> --server <url>
```
To build our RAN images, we SHALL use the `codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms` repository with all the proper development libraries.
## RHEL8 Entitlements
To build the RAN images, we use the `codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms` repository with all the proper development libraries.
This repository is not directly accessible from the UBI RHEL8 image (`registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi:latest`).
Therefore, we need to copy certificates and subscription manager configuration files from a registered RHEL8 machine.
So we need to copy from a register RHEL8 machine certificates and subsccription manager configuration files.
SO on a `RHEL8` physical machine (or a virtual machine) connected to the OpenShift Cluster, recover the entitlement and the RH subscription manager configs:

These configmaps and secret will be shared by all the build configs in your OC project. No need to do it each time.
**CAUTION: these files expire every month or so. If you have done a build on your OC project and try again a few weeks later, you may need to re-copy them**.

# 2. Build of `base` shared image
# 2. Build the Builder shared image #
In our Eurecom/OSA environment we need to pass a GIT proxy.
2 things are impacted by this situation:
* In `openshift/oai-ran-rh8-build-config.yml` file
* `httpProxy: http://proxy.eurecom.fr:8080`
* `httpsProxy: https://proxy.eurecom.fr:8080`
* Add a environment variable to the build config
Create an image stream and build config that specify image properties and build parameters, then start the build:
```bash
oc apply -f openshift/oai-ran-rh8-image-stream.yml
oc apply -f openshift/oai-ran-rh8-build-config.yml
oc set env bc/oai-ran-rhel8-build-config NEEDED_GIT_PROXY=http://proxy.eurecom.fr:8080
oc start-build oai-ran-rhel8-build-config --follow
oc create -f openshift/ran-base-is.yaml
oc create -f openshift/ran-base-bc.yaml
oc start-build ran-base --from-file=<oai-repo-directory> --follow
```
In case you do NOT require a GIT proxy: **you SHALL remove the 2 lines in `openshift/oai-ran-rh8-build-config.yml` file.**
The `--from-file=<oai-repo-directory>` uploads the repository (from which the
build is done) as a binary blob. It is therefore possible to make
merges or other modifications and build an image.
And no need to add a `NEEDED_GIT_PROXY` variable to the build config.
# 3. Build of `build` shared image
The same as for the `base` image.
```bash
oc apply -f openshift/oai-ran-rh8-image-stream.yml
oc apply -f openshift/modified-oai-ran-rh8-build-config.yml
oc start-build oai-ran-rhel8-build-config --follow
oc create -f openshift/ran-build-is.yaml
oc create -f openshift/ran-build-bc.yaml
oc start-build ran-build --from-file=<oai-repo-directory> --follow
```
After a while it should be successful.
# 4. Build of a target image
# 3. Build an OAI target image #
For the example the eNB:
The same as for the `base` image:
```bash
oc apply -f openshift/oai-enb-rh8-image-stream.yml
oc apply -f openshift/oai-enb-rh8-build-config.yml
oc start-build oai-enb-rh8-build-config --follow
oc create -f openshift/oai-gnb-is.yaml
oc create -f openshift/oai-gnb-bc.yaml
oc start-build oai-gnb --from-file=<oai-repo-directory> --follow
```
**CAUTION: if you are pushing modifications to the branch you are using, it won't be taken into account besides the Dockerfile.**
# 5. Retrieval of Build Container Images and Build Artifacts
**Because the source files are copied during the shared image creation.**
Build artifacts, such as build logs, can be retrieved by checking the logs of
the individual build steps. For example, for the `ran-build` step, you can do:
```bash
oc logs ran-build-1-build
```
where `ran-build-1-build` is the name of the `ran-build` build (type `oc get
pods` to get a list of all pods).
**Only way to regenerate images w/ modified source code is to re-start from step #2.**
It is also possible to retrieve the build logs from a running pod. Currently,
this is only used for the `ran-base` step (the others using a python script to
scrape it from stdout):
```bash
oc create -f openshift/ran-base-log-retrieval.yaml
oc rsync ran-base-log-retrieval:/oai-ran/cmake_targets/log cmake_targets/log/ran-base
oc delete -f openshift/ran-base-log-retrieval.yaml
```
# 4. Deployment using HELM charts #
The images are uploaded into the OpenShift image registry. To download, login
using podman, then pull an image:
```bash
oc whoami -t | sudo podman login -u <username> --password-stdin <url> --tls-verify=false
sudo podman pull <url>/oaicicd-ran/<image>:<tag> --tls-verify=false
sudo podman logout <url>
```
The `<image>` could be `oai-gnb`, and the `<tag>` `ci-temp`.
# 6. Deployment using HELM Charts
**CAUTION: even more experimental.**
