9. Install Applications

Now we will install all of the Open OnDemand system web applications:

• Dashboard App
• Shell App
• Files App
• File Editor App
• Active Jobs App
• My Jobs App

This is greatly simplified by the ood-apps-installer utility.

1. Clone and check out the latest tag for the ood-apps-installer utility:

   cd ~/ood/src
   scl enable git19 -- git clone https://github.com/OSC/ood-apps-installer.git apps
   cd apps/
   scl enable git19 -- git checkout v1.0.0
   

2. Begin building the apps (may take ~15 min):

   scl enable rh-ruby22 nodejs010 git19 -- rake
   

3. After a successful build, you will want to add a default SSH host that the Shell App will log into. It is recommended to choose one of your publicly accessible login nodes.

   echo "DEFAULT_SSHHOST=login.my_center.edu" > build/shell/.env
   

   where you replace login.my_center.edu with your public login host.

   Tip

   You can skip this step entirely if you built the apps with this environment variable defined during the build:

   scl enable rh-ruby22 nodejs010 git19 -- rake DEFAULT_SSHHOST="login.my_center.edu"
   

4. Finally, we install the apps to their system location at /var/www/ood/apps/sys with:

   sudo scl enable rh-ruby22 -- rake install
