# Red Hat OpenShift Developer Sandbox

This is a course showing you how to try out the PEcAn Ecological Forecasting platform for free in the Red Hat OpenShift Developer Sandbox.

## How to start an OpenShift Developer Sandbox

Start a [free Red Hat OpenShift Developer Sandbox
here](https://developers.redhat.com/developer-sandbox).

Click on the

button in the top right corner.

### Register for a free Red Hat account

## Using the OpenShift Developer Sandbox

### Download the oc command
- Click the

button in the top right of the Developer Sandbox.

- Click
.
- Click the download link for your operating system.


- You'll need to extract the `oc` command and place it in your path,
for example in a `bin` directory in your `$HOME` directory.

```bash
mkdir -p ~/bin
tar xvf ~/Downloads/oc.tar -C ~/bin/
```

### Log into the OpenShift CLI in your terminal

you can click the

button at the top.

Start your terminal with the

button.

### Grant default service account edit role in namespace

To grant the default service account edit role privileges, you will use
either your own terminal where you have logged in to OpenShift, or use
the built-in OpenShift Terminal. We will grant edit privileges on the
default service account, as well as edit privileges on roles and
rolebindings in the namespace so that the default service account can
deploy resources in your namespace.

```
oc create rolebinding python-edit --clusterrole=edit \
--serviceaccount=$(oc project -q):python

oc create role python-edit-rolebindings \
--verb=get,list,watch,create,update,patch,delete \
--resource=roles,rolebindings

oc create rolebinding python-edit-rolebindings --role=python-edit-rolebindings \
--serviceaccount=$(oc project -q):python
```
