 Step 1: Clone the sample app 

First, clone the Node.js hello world sample app GitHub repo.

git clone https://github.com/IBM-Cloud/get-started-node





 Step 2: Run the app locally 

Use the NPM package manager to install dependencies and run your app.



1. On the command line, change the directory to where the sample app is located.

cd get-started-node
2. Install the dependencies listed in the [package.json](https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json) file to run the app locally.

npm install
3. Run the app.

npm start
4. View your app at the following URL: http://localhost:3000



Use [nodemon](https://nodemon.io/) for automatic restarting of app on file changes.





 Step 3: Prepare the app for deployment 

To deploy to IBM Cloud, it can be helpful to set up a manifest.yml file. The manifest.yml file includes basic information about your app, such as the name, how much memory to allocate for each instance and the route. We've provided a sample manifest.yml file in the get-started-node directory.

Open the manifest.yml file, and change the name from GetStartedNode to your app name, app_name.

apps:
- name: GetStartedNode
random-route: true
memory: 128M

In this manifest.yml file, random-route: true generates a random route for your app to prevent your route from colliding with others. If you choose to, you can replace random-route: true with host: <myChosenHostName>, supplying a host name of your choice.





 Step 4: Deploy the app 

You can use the IBM Cloud CLI to deploy apps to IBM Cloud.



1. Log in to your IBM Cloud account, and select an API endpoint.

ibmcloud login
Before you begin 

Before you can use the CLI, you must install the IBM Cloud CLI and the VPC CLI plug-in. For more information, see the [CLI prerequisites](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/vpc?topic=vpc-set-up-environmentcli-prerequisites-setup).



1. Log in to IBM Cloud®.

ibmcloud login --sso -a cloud.ibm.com

This command returns a URL and prompts for a passcode. Go to that URL in your browser and log in. If successful, you get a one-time passcode. Copy this passcode and paste it as a response on the prompt. After successful authentication, you are prompted to choose your account. If you have access to multiple accounts, select the account that you want to log in as. Respond to any remaining prompts to finish logging in.
2. Select the current generation of VPC.

ibmcloud is target --gen 2







 Creating a boot volume from a snapshot for a new instance from the CLI 

Run the ibmcloud is instance-create command with the source_snapshot property in the boot volume JSON. Specify the ID or name of a bootable snapshot. The restored boot volume is used to initialize the instance.

See the following example.

bmcloud is instance-create my-instance-restore1 ea002578-ff10-41fe-9652-e63f7e0e3cba us-south-1 bx2-2x8 ba11a6f2-6c17-4fee-a4b5-5c016fe64376 --boot-volume

IBM® Cloud Foundry is deprecated and no longer supported as of 1 June 2023. For more information, see the [deprecation details](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cloud-foundry-public?topic=cloud-foundry-public-deprecationdep_details).

Before you can start coding with Node-RED, you must first configure the editor.



 Open the Node-RED flow editor 



1. After your app starts, click Routes URL or enter the following URL in a browser to display the Node-RED landing page.

http://<varname><yourhost></varname>.mybluemix.net
2. Click Go to your Node-RED flow editor to open the browser-based flow editor. The editor makes it easy to connect devices, APIs, and online services by using the wide range of nodes that are included in the palette.







 Customizing your Node-RED instance 

Before you begin, install the [Cloud Foundry command-line interface](https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cli/releases).



1. [Download and extract your starter code](https://cloud.ibm.com/) to set up your development environment.
2. Change to your new directory.

cd <varname>directory_name</varname></codeblock>
3. Connect to IBM Cloud®.

ibmcloud cf api https://api.cloud.ibm.com/
4. Log in to IBM Cloud.

It is described in the [README.md](https://github.com/IBM-Cloud/patient-health-frontend). If you run into trouble and want to start over just execute the destroy.sh script and sequentially go through the scripts that correspond to the steps to recover.





 Before you begin 

This tutorial requires:



* IBM Cloud CLI,



* IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service plugin (kubernetes-service),



* oc to interact with OpenShift.



You will find instructions to download and install these tools for your operating environment in the [Getting started with tutorials](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/solution-tutorials?topic=solution-tutorials-tutorials) guide.

To avoid the installation of these tools, you can use the [Cloud Shell](https://cloud.ibm.com/shell) from the IBM Cloud console. Use oc version to ensure the version of the Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud CLI matches your cluster version (4.12.x). If they do not match, install the matching version by following [these instructions](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/solution-tutorials?topic=solution-tutorials-tutorialsgetting-started-cloud-shell).





 Step 1: Create a Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud cluster 

With Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud, you have a fast and secure way to containerize and deploy enterprise workloads in clusters.
Availability zones FAQ 

You can create an IBM® Cloudant® for IBM Cloud® Lite or Standard plan instance on IBM Cloud in a multi-zone or single-zone region.

The following tutorials demonstrate how to create an instance:



*  Using the dashboard. For more information, see [Getting started with IBM Cloudant](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/Cloudant?topic=Cloudant-getting-started-with-cloudant).



If you want to create an IBM Cloudant Dedicated Hardware plan instance, follow the [Creating and leveraging an IBM Cloudant Dedicated Hardware plan instance on IBM Cloud](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/services/Cloudant?topic=Cloudant-creating-and-leveraging-an-ibm-cloudant-dedicated-hardware-plan-instance-on-ibm-cloudcreating-and-leveraging-an-ibm-cloudant-dedicated-hardware-plan-instance-on-ibm-cloud) tutorial.



  What is an availability zone? 

When you create an instance, after you select the IBM Cloudant tile, you must select a region. These locations are called availability zones. An availability zone is an IBM Cloud® Public location that hosts your data. All Lite and Standard plans automatically deploy into a multi-zone region. Dedicated Hardware plan instances can be deployed in most [IBM data center locations](https://www.ibm.com/cloud/data-centers/).





  What is the difference between a single-zone and a multi-zone region? 

A multi-zone region includes three availability zones that can be used by an instance that is deployed to that region. The multi-zone regions available with IBM Cloudant include the following regions:



*  Dallas
*  Frankfurt
*  London
*  Osaka
*  Sydney
*  Tokyo
*  Washington DC



A single-zone region offers only one availability zone for that region. The single-zone regions available with IBM Cloudant include the following regions:



*  Seoul
*  Chennai



For more information, see [Plans and provisioning](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/services/Cloudant?topic=Cloudant-ibm-cloud-publiclocations-and-tenancy).
Navigating the IBM Cloud console 

The [IBM Cloud® console](https://cloud.ibm.com) is the user interface that you use to manage all your IBM Cloud resources. You can create a free account, log in, access documentation, access the catalog, view pricing information, get support, or check the status of IBM Cloud components. After you log in, the menu bar contains a Navigation Menu icon ![Navigation Menu icon](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs-content/v1/content/adcecdbe4e86955f88aac7f3c1e7ec3ff44992ef/icons/icon_hamburger.svg) and more links.

2. Access to a Mac or Linux™ terminal
3. [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
4. [Node.js and npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm)
5. [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/downloads.html)
6. [Jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/), a command-line tool to process JSON data







 Step 1. Obtain an API key to deploy infrastructure to your account 

Follow the steps in [this document](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/account?topic=account-userapikey&interface=uicreate_user_key) to create an API key and make a note of it.





 Step 2. Clone the code repo and cd into the Terraform directory 

Now, you get the code and create a credentials file.



1. In a terminal window, type the following command:

git clone https://github.com/IBM-Cloud/team-directory.git
cd team-directory
2. Create a document called terraform.tfvars with the following fields:

ibmcloud_api_key = "<your_api_key_from_step_1>"
region = "eu-gb"
redis_password = "<make_up_a_password>"







 Step 3. Create the infrastructure 



1. Create all the infrastructure that you need by running the Terraform script:

terraform apply --auto-approve

The Terraform folder contains a number of simple scripts, which you can see in the following list:

main.tf
: Tells Terraform to use the IBM Cloud.

variables.tf
If not, it lets you know what software you need to install. Install the following packages if they are not installed already:



* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/)
* [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install)



The script needs information about your service instance and project to use the data and search settings that you configured for your project and apply them to the sample app. You must collect the following information so that you can share it with the script when it asks you for the information later:

Service credentials
: The following information is used by the sample app script to construct an endpoint where it can send API requests and to authenticate with your service instance:



* URL
* API key



To get this information, complete the appropriate steps for the type of deployment you are using:



IBM Cloud

From the [IBM Cloud Resource list](https://cloud.ibm.com/resources), expand the AI/Machine Learning section, and then find the service instance that you created earlier. Click the instance to open its overview page. From the Credentials section, copy the URL and API key values and store them somewhere where you can access them later, such as a local text file.
IBM Cloud Pak for Data

From the IBM Cloud Pak for Data web client main menu, expand Services, and then click Instances. Find your instance, and then click it to open its summary page. Scroll to the Access information section of the page, and then copy the URL and bearer token. Store the values somewhere where you can access them later, such as a local text file. (The bearer token serves as the apikey for installed deployments.)



Project ID
: The unique identifier for the project you created in this tutorial.

You can copy the project ID from the API Information tab of the Integrate and deploy page.

To run the script that starts the sample app, complete the following steps:



1. Do one of the following things:



* If you downloaded the repo, extract the files from the archive to a workding directory on your system.
git clone https://github.com/IBM-Cloud/get-started-aspnet-core





 Step 2: Run the app locally 



1. On the command line, change the directory to where the sample app is located.

cd get-started-aspnet-core/src/GetStartedDotnet
2. Run the app locally by running the following commands.

dotnet restore

dotnet run
3. View your app at: http://localhost:5000/.







 Step 3: Prepare the app for deployment 

To deploy to IBM Cloud, it can be helpful to set up a manifest.yml file. The manifest.yml file includes basic information about your app, such as the name, how much memory to allocate for each instance and the route. We've provided a sample manifest.yml file in the get-started-dotnet directory.

Open the manifest.yml file, and change the name from GetStartedDotnet to your app name, app_name.

apps:
- name: GetStartedDotnet
random-route: true
memory: 512M

In this manifest.yml file, random-route: true generates a random route for your app to prevent your route from colliding with others. If you choose to, you can replace random-route: true with host: myChosenHostName, supplying a host name of your choice.





 Step 4: Deploy the app 

You can use the IBM Cloud CLI to deploy apps.



1. Log in to your IBM Cloud account, and select an API endpoint.

ibmcloud login

If you have a federated user ID, instead use the following command to log in with your single sign-on ID. See [Logging in with a federated ID](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/account?topic=account-federated_id) to learn more.

ibmcloud login --sso
2. Target a Cloud Foundry org and space:

ibmcloud target --cf
Clone the fruit-counter repository, change to this directory, and then install and start the dependencies.

git clone https://github.com/IBM/CodeEngine
cd CodeEngine/fruit-counter
npm install
npm run start
4. Open a browser and go to [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080).
5. Pick your favorite fruit and submit your choice. The app accepts your choice and displays a running total of picks.



You can verify that your fruit choice was registered in the Cloudant by going to your IBM Cloudant database dashboard.

Let's look at how this program works.

This application is a simple Node.js application that uses two main packages.



* [@ibm-cloud/cloudant](https://github.com/IBM/cloudant-node-sdk) to connect to IBM Cloudant and to read and write data.
* [Express](https://expressjs.com/) to create a web server that allows users to submit their choice of fruit and see a running total of our data.



This application is made up of two main files.

server.js
: The server.js file is used to run the web server and communicates with Cloudant. After a user selects a fruit choice, the front end page submits the value to the /fruit route (see below), the app.route function stores a new document in Cloudant with the fruit choice, and then reads back the running total to return to the front end page.
: The read operation uses a Cloudant design document and a MapReduce view to aggregate documents. For more information about views and design documents, see [Creating Views (MapReduce)](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/Cloudant?topic=Cloudant-creating-views-mapreduce).

index.html
: The index.html file is the web page of the application that uses the Vue.js framework. When this page loads, it displays the available fruit options.
url: https://37c53a06-5193-23f3-b681-7c8b76ce7qaa-bluemix:e2ddc589631a0651af44ee3920f9bab02bdcb68e1908b6314c43f5b0d39c043a@337c53a06-5193-23f3-b681-7c8b76ce7qaa-bluemix.cloudantnosqldb.appdomain.cloud
username: 37c53a06-5193-23f3-b681-7c8b76ce7qaa-bluemix

Run the manifest.yaml file with the service credential information, found in the example output.

CLOUDANT_HOSTNAME=37c53a06-5193-23f3-b681-7c8b76ce7qaa-bluemix.cloudantnosqldb.appdomain.cloud CLOUDANT_USERNAME=37c53a06-5193-23f3-b681-7c8b76ce7qaa-bluemix CLOUDANT_PASSWORD=e2dbc589632a0651ae44ee3920f8cdb02bdcb68e1909b6314c42f5b0d39c043a CLOUDANT_DATABASE=cats PACKAGE_NAME=my-package RULE_NAME=my-rule TRIGGER_NAME=my-trigger ibmcloud fn deploy -m manifest.yaml





After the template deploys, you can make further edits to the code to customize it as needed, or go back and check out the catalog of available templates.





 Testing your IBM Cloudant Events package 

Now that you have your IBM Cloudant database and your IBM Cloudant events (action and trigger) set up, let's try it out! The expected data item is a cat, with a name and a color defined.
