How to access a RHDM 7.0 git repository in OCP environment? - drools-guvnor

Question

Trying to access RHDM7 git repository hosted in an OCP environment.
This is what I have tryied so far:
Create a project in my OCP instance with :
oc new-project demo-rhdm7-dtf
oc create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gpe-mw-training/bxms_decision_mgmt_foundations_lab/master/resources/rhdm7-only.yaml
oc new-app --name=dm-demo -n demo-rhdm7-dtf --template=rhdm7-only -p RHT_IMAGE_STREAM_NAMESPACE=openshift -p KIE_ADMIN_PWD=test1234! -p MAVEN_REPO_PASSWORD=test1234! -p APPLICATION_NAME=demo
Notes:
rhdm7-only is a template created from github repository
the openshift namespace should include the imagestreams from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jboss-container-images/rhdm-7-openshift-image/rhdm70-dev/rhdm70-image-streams.yaml
The Deployment configs are paused by default, please take a moment to resume the rollout.
Create an space using Decision Central. In my case I am creating the Acme space.
In the created space create a new project, in my case demoinsurance project.
Do a port-forward for the nio git ssh port: 8001. I am following this tutorial example: http://www.schabell.org/2017/03/how-to-access-jboss-brms-internal-git-repo-in-container.html
oc new-project demo-rhdm7-dtf
oc port-forward $(oc get pod -l=deploymentconfig=gpte-rhdmcentr --template='{{ range .items }} {{ .metadata.name }} {{ end }}') 8001:8001
Try to use your favorite git client and clone:
When trying to clone as in the example (using git protocol through the ssh port) I get:
git clone git://127.0.0.1:8001/Acme-myrepo
...
fatal: protocol error: bad line length character: SSH-
When trying with ssh protocol:
git clone ssh://adminUser#127.0.0.1:8001/Acme-myrepo
...
ssh_dispatch_run_fatal: Connection to 127.0.0.1 port 8001: incorrect signature
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
When forwarding and using git port (9418)
git clone git://127.0.0.1:9418/Acme-myrepo
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
And by the way, by checking the pod's .niogit repository you can see Acme-myrepo.git repository:
$ oc rsh $(oc get pod -l=deploymentconfig=gpte-rhdmcentr --template='{{ range .items }} {{ .metadata.name }} {{ end }}')
$ ls $JBOSS_HOME/standalone/data/bpmsuite/.niogit
Acme-myrepo.git datasets.git datasources.git myrepo.git plugins.git preferences.git security.git system.git system_ou

Please Close.
After further review:
https://github.com/jboss-container-images/rhdm-7-openshift-image/blob/rhdm70-dev/decisioncentral/image.yaml#L67
allows the use of the following environment variable in the template configuration:
JAVA_OPTS_APPEND = "-Dorg.uberfire.nio.git.ssh.algorithm=RSA"
which allows to use ssh protocol:
git clone ssh://#localhost:8001/
and the ssh protocol will request the password for the decision central user.
Note that there is a port-forward from OCP pod to localhost: oc port-forward $(oc get pod -l=deploymeconfig=gpte-rhdmcentr --template='{{ range .items }} {{ .metadata.name }} {{ end }}') 8001:8001
