Changes: 1. npm electron start is run with local node / npm: /<airshipui_root>/tools/node-v12.16.3/bin 2. The Makefile now will install node by default 3. The Makefile will now add the node modules on command 4. Seperated out the go linter and the js linter installers Change-Id: I03904218082e73ef757e06073b548b9c3f499784

Airship UI
Airship UI is an electron that is designed to allow you to interact with Airship components, find and connect to the kubernetes cluster and use plugins to tie together a singular dashboard to view addons without the need to go to a separate url or application for each.
Prerequisites
- A working kubernetes or airship installation
- Go 1.13+
- npm
Getting Started
git clone https://opendev.org/airship/airshipui
cd airshipui
make
make install-npm-modules # Note running behind a proxy can cause issues, notes on solving is in the Appendix of the Developer's Guide
Adding Additional Functionality
Airship UI can be seamlessly integrated with service dashboards and other web-based tools by providing the necessary configuration in $HOME/.airship/airshipui.json.
To add service dashboards, create a section at the top level of airshipui.json as follows:
"clusters": [
{
"name": "clusterA",
"baseFqdn": "svc.cluster.local",
"namespaces": [
{
"name": "ceph",
"dashboards": [
{
"name": "Ceph",
"protocol": "https",
"fqdn": "ceph-dash.example.domain",
"port": 443,
"path": ""
}
]
},
{
"name": "openstack",
"dashboards": [
{
"name": "Horizon",
"protocol": "http",
"hostname": "horizon",
"port": 80,
"path": "dashboard/auth/login"
}
]
}
]
}
]
For dashboards that are made available through service endpoints in your cluster, the FQDN for the dashboard will be constructed using the format "hostname.namespace.baseFqdn". In the above example, the configuration for Horizon specifies a service dashboard available at "http://horizon.openstack.svc.cluster.local:80/dashboard/auth/login"
Alternatively, you may choose to specify the FQDN directly, as in the above Ceph example. This configuration specifies a Ceph dashboard available at "https://ceph-dash.example.domain:443/"
If both "hostname" and "fqdn" are provided, "fqdn" will take precedence.
The airshipui.json configuration file can also be used to launch "plugins", or external executables, in the background as Airship UI starts. Any processes launched by Airship UI will be terminated when Airship UI exits, including any child processes started by the plugins. If the plugin launches a web dashboard, it can be also be included in the list of service dashboards within Airship UI. The following example demonstrates how to add configuration to launch and use Octant within Airship UI:
"plugins": [
{
"name": "Octant",
"dashboard": {
"protocol": "http",
"fqdn": "localhost",
"port": 7777,
"path": ""
},
"executable": {
"autoStart": true,
"filepath": "/usr/local/bin/octant",
"args": [
"--disable-open-browser",
"--kubeconfig",
"/home/ubuntu/.airship/kubeconfig"
]
}
}
]
To prevent a plugin from launching but retain its configuration for later use, simply set "autoStart" to false.
