+# [Quarkus.io](http://quarkus.io) GraalVM Native S2I
+
+## OpenShift
+
+### Minishift 8 GB Set-Up recommendation
+
+    minishift profile delete quarkus-s2i-native
+    minishift profile set quarkus-s2i-native
+    minishift config set memory 8192
+    minishift start
+
+### OpenShift Build
+
+    oc new-build https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus.git --context-dir=docker/centos-graal-maven-s2i --name quarkus-native-s2i
+    oc logs -f bc/quarkus-native-s2i
+
+### OpenShift Use
+
+    oc new-app quarkus-native-s2i~https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus-quickstarts --context-dir=getting-started --name=getting-started-native
+    oc logs -f bc/getting-started-native
+    oc expose svc/getting-started-native
+
+Note that GraalVM-based native build are more memory & CPU intensive than regular pure Java builds.
+[By default, builds are completed by pods using unbound resources, such as memory and CPU](https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.11/dev_guide/builds/advanced_build_operations.html),
+but note that [your OpenShift Project may have limit ranges defined](https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.11/admin_guide/limits.html#admin-guide-limits).
+
+Testing indicates that the "hello, world" getting-started demo application builds in around 2 minutes on typical hardware when the build is given 4 GB of RAM and 4 (virtual) CPUs for concurrency. You therefore may need to increase the respective limits for OpenShift's S2I build containers like so:
+
+    apiVersion: "v1"
+    kind: "BuildConfig"
+    metadata:
+      name: "getting-started-native"
+    spec:
+      resources:
+        limits:
+          cpu: '4'
+          memory: 4Gi
+
+The following `oc patch` command does this:
+
+    oc patch bc/getting-started-native -p '{"spec":{"resources":{"limits":{"cpu":"4", "memory":"4Gi"}}}}'
+
+## Locally (only for testing)
+
+### Local Build
+
+    docker build . -t quarkus-native-s2i
+
+### Local use
+
+    sudo dnf install source-to-image
+
+    s2i build --copy ../../../quarkus-quickstarts/getting-started quarkus-native-s2i getting-started-native
+
+    docker run --rm -it -p 8080:8080 getting-started-native
+
+    curl http://localhost:8080/hello/greeting/quarkus
