quick-ocp

Quickly spawns an OCP cluster using OpenShift Local for use on Github Actions.

This will work on the free tier lowest resource runners at the moment with additional runner support added later if needed.

Read more about Github Actions runners here.

If you are looking to quickly spawn Kubernetes in your Action runner, try quick-k8s.

Known Limitations:

• This does not run correctly on ubuntu-20.04 runners due to the version of libvirt available in the mirrors isn't the minimum version required by OpenShift Local.

OpenShift Version Selection

You can control which OpenShift version is deployed by setting the desiredOCPVersion input variable. For example:

with:
  desiredOCPVersion: 4.18

• The default is latest, which will use the most recent supported version. If you leave desiredOCPVersion blank, you will get the latest version.
• Supported values are 4.18, 4.19, and latest.
