Release Notes and Known Issues

Relative pathnames are now supported, so the full path does not need to be specified with the --path option. For example, the following should now work:

C:\> mkdir test
C:\> vagrant.exe service-manager install-cli openshift --path test

Container Development Kit 2.4 now includes OpenShift Container Platform 3.4.0.40.

Red Hat Container Development Kit is available as Red Hat Container Development Kit 3.0 beta. No technical support is provided for this beta version.

A Vagrantfile for a specific user does not use the supplied username and password if configured to use a proxy. The following file created in ~/.vagrant.d/Vagrantfile does not work as expected:

Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
  config.registration.username = "actual_username"
  config.registration.password = "actual_password"
end

Specifying the username and password by using environment variables has the same result:

~]$ export PROXY="proxy_addr"
~]$ export PROXY_USER="actual_user"
~]$ export PROXY_PASSWORD="actual_password"

The user will be prompted interactively for the username and password in either case.

If no proxy is set, Container Development Kit uses the username and password supplied in ~/.vagrant.d/Vagrantfile.

The output from vagrant service-manager does not follow Microsoft Windows CMD.exe syntax. The path given does not work outside of Cygwin. The following error is shown:

C:\DevelopmentSuite\cdk\componenets\rhel\rhel-ose> mkdir C:\tmp
C:\DevelopmentSuite\cdk\componenets\rhel\rhel-ose> vagrant service-manager install-cli openshift --path C:\tmp

# Binary now available at /cygdrive/c/tmp
# run binary as:
# oc <command>
export PATH=/cygdrive/c/tmp:$PATH

# run following command to configure your shell:
# eval "$(VAGRANT_NO_COLOR=1 vagrant service-manager install-cli openshift --path /cygdrive/c/tmp | tr -d '\r')"

The correct syntax for Microsoft Windows paths includes the drive letter and path available in Microsoft Windows outside of Cygwin, in this case C:\tmp

The vagrant service-manager install-cli command with --path option does not work when using Cygwin syntax on both Microsoft Windows 7 and 10. The following error is shown:

~] $ vagrant.exe service-manager install-cli openshift --path /cygdrive/c/test
undefined local variable or method `dir_name' for #<VagrantPlugins::ServiceManager::Installer:0x492b130>

To workaround this issue, use the CMD.exe syntax with drive letter for the path, like vagrant.exe service-manager install-cli openshift --path c:/test
