   To do it from a local clone only, without having your own fork on GitHub with the changes, entails using a binary build. The first steps for this are:

   oc new-build python:3.5 --binary --name=srpminfo
   oc start-build srpminfo --from-dir=.
   

   Once the first build has completed, then run:

   oc new-app srpminfo
   oc expose sac srpminfo
   

   After every code change you make and for which you want to do a build, you need to run again:

   oc start-build srpminfo --from-dir=.
   

   Because this is a binary build linked to your local checkout, you cannot use the start build button in the web console as it doesn't have access to the code files and the build will fail.

   The approach I've been taking is this:

   • use a local virtualenv & python wsgi.py for dev iterations
   • commit and do a proper deployment to update the cluster

   I could do an intermediate step with oc cluster up to get a more complete deployment working locally, but the minimalist approach is actually working pretty well so far.

   That is, deployments are a matter of:

   git commit -m "Whatever I changed"
   git push
   oc start-build srpminfo
   

   And then the redeployment once the build finishes is automatic.
