Eclipse Che Dashboard

Requirements

• Node.js v12 and later.
• yarn v2.4.1 or higher.

Note: Below you can find installation instructions

• Node.js
• yarn

Quick start

docker build . -f build/dockerfiles/Dockerfile -t quay.io/eclipse/che-dashboard:next

Running

Install all dependencies:

yarn

and start dev-server:

The start command requires to specify a remote Eclipse Che server like:

yarn start --env.server=https://che-che.192.168.99.100.nip.io

The development server serves the project on http://localhost:3000.

Note: For Che/CRW to allow connection from localhost it should be configured in accordance.

# Note: eclipse-che is the default target namespace but if you have custom - change it below
CHE_NAMESPACE="eclipse-che"

kubectl rollout restart deployment/che-operator -n $CHE_NAMESPACE

Note: To use CodeReady Workspaces(based on Che) Hosted by Red Hat instance at https://workspaces.openshift.com, use the fully qualified host name of the cluster. URL is looking like https://codeready-codeready-workspaces-operator.apps.sandbox.x8i5.p1.openshiftapps.com

yarn start --env.server=https://codeready-codeready-workspaces-operator.apps.sandbox.x8i5.p1.openshiftapps.com

To specify a different port, add --port=3333

For redirect/authentication issues, please validate settings of Valid Redirect URIs and Web Origins on keycloak for che-public client. Valid Redirect URIs requires http://localhost:3000/* and Web Origins requires http://localhost:3000 (using default port number)

For better debugging experience you need to have React and Redux Developer Tools installed in your browser.

Production

To launch the production mode, the command is

yarn start:prod

To provide a custom remote server:

yarn start:prod --env.server=https://codeready-codeready-workspaces-operator.apps.sandbox.x8i5.p1.openshiftapps.com

Dependencies IP

To make sure all the dependencies satisfy Eclipse Intellectual Property, this repo uses https://github.com/che-incubator/dash-licenses which is a wrapper for https://github.com/eclipse/dash-licenses.

So, check .deps/prod.md for dependencies we package and .deps/dev.md for ones we use at build time only.

To generate dependencies info:

yarn license:generate

Branding

Default branding data for the User Dashboard is located in branding.constant.ts#BRANDING_DEFAULT. It can be overridden without re-building the project in product.json file which should contain only values that should overwrite default ones.

Configurability

Field "configuration.cheCliTool" should contain the name of a CLI tool that is recommended to be used to work with Che Server from the terminal. It's the "chectl" by default.

Example:

{
  "configuration": {
    "cheCliTool": "chectl"
  }
}

Field "header.warning" allows you to display a message at the top of the dashboard. You can use HTML to configure the field but only the '<a>' tag and 'href', 'target' properties are accepted. It's undefined by default.

Example:

{
  "header": {
    "warning": "Server upgrades are happening at 1:00 PM. To learn more visit <a href='foo' target='_blank'>foo</a>"
  }
}

Field "links" allows you to configure links in the masthead, like

  links: [
    {
      text: 'Make a wish',
      href: 'mailto:[email protected]'
    },
    {
      text: 'Documentation',
      href: 'https://www.eclipse.org/che/docs/che-7'
    }
  ]
