This guide will help to get quickly working with the openshift API from a linux console. It provides some initial setup bash variables and functions so that you can run simple rest verbs from the command line (i.e. GET /some/path).
- Log in to OpenShift using the CLI ( 'oc login --server=')
- Copy paste the 'Setup Script' into the command line, making sure to set the SERVER variable to the IP address of your master.
- Once the Setup script is run in your terminal session, you should be able to copy/paste from the Sample API Requests below to get started making API requests.
TOKEN=`oc whoami -t`
SERVER=master.d1.rhc-ose.labs.redhat.com # Master IP
