Openshift Online getting started

Create yourself an Openshift Online account (account creation seems to me a bit buggish)

https://docs.openshift.com/online/getting_started/basic_walkthrough.html

I follow the instructions and create my first mongodb / nodejs Openshift project


I download the CLI https://console.starter-ca-central-1.openshift.com/console/command-line

oc login https://api.starter-ca-central-1.openshift.com --token=4zlxeYZvlO9FdfvcBEEVZpMca-JA5UftBzShxdkGITI

oc project vernetto-example

.\oc.exe status
