Apologies at the state of some of the documentation,  in general for
EnMasse always start with the docs you can find at http://enmasse.io/ ...
the "design_docs" directory in the repo is (I'm afraid) a bit of a dumping
ground for old potentially out-of-date information which may still have
some value that can be extracted for creating our product documentation.

For you, installing Hono and EnMasse together on OpenShift, I think your
best path may be to follow the guide here:
https://www.eclipse.org/hono/deployment/openshift_s2i/ which should give a
comprehensive guide for this integration.
