toc::[] = Kiali UI

== Introduction

A UI for the Kiali Istio Observability Project

== Technologies

• React.js
• Redux

== Quick Start [source,shell]

npm install -g yarn yarn yarn start

A new browser window should automatically open. But, if it doesn't then use: http://localhost:3000

This launches a development environment that instantly reloads any changes to the browser for rapid development.

== Directory Structure

• build: Production build output
• public: Home of index.html
• src: Source and test code
• src/actions: Redux actions
• src/app: React top level component
• src/assets: Images and other assets
• src/config: Configuration
• src/containers: [.line-through]#Redux connected containers# Deprecated
• src/components: React Components
• src/fonts: Fonts
• src/images: Patternfly Images
• src/pages: Top level pages and nested components
• src/reducers: Redux reducers
• src/services: Api services
• src/store: Redux store definitions
• src/types: Typescript definitions for all kinds of types
• src/utils: Various Utilities

== Developing

We use yarn as the package manager, if adding dependencies to package.json make sure you install them with yarn and commit the yarn.lock file.

=== Testing with Kiali

When developing, it is usual to run this application outside of https://github.com/kiali/kiali[kiali].

It is possible to proxy the API requests without having to push the changes to kiali. Add the https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/blob/master/packages/react-scripts/template/README.md#proxying-api-requests-in-development[proxy] property to package.json with the url of kiali. [source, json]

{ "name": "kiali-ui", "version": "0.2.1", "proxy": "http://kiali-istio-system.127.0.0.1.nip.io", "bugs": { ...

If Kiali is configured with a specific web root, make sure to append it to the URL. On many setups with Kubernetes, the web root will be /kiali by default.

Run yarn start and try it! [source, bash]

$ curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:3000/api Namespaces: [default istio-system kube-public kube-system myproject openshift openshift-infra openshift-node]

Namespace: default Services [docker-registry kubernetes router]

Service Name: docker-registry Service Labels: docker-registry = default Type: ClusterIP ...

=== Styling https://www.patternfly.org/[PatternFly] is the main UI components framework. It defines style based on SASS preprocessor. All Patternfly build assets are copied to src. Any React component may have its related SCSS file (such as App.scss - this one includes all PatternFly Sass along with PatternFly React Sass extensions). Once Sass compiles, the resulting CSS can be found next to its SCSS counterpart (ex: src/app/App.css).

To compile CSS, run: [source,shell]

yarn build-css

Note: Only static assets which are import 'ed into your application will be included in your resulting build output.

=== RCUE Styling To use the https://redhat-rcue.github.io/[RCUE] styled css instead of normal Patternfly

For development run: [source,shell]

env REACT_APP_RCUE=true yarn start

For production build run: [source,shell]

env REACT_APP_RCUE=true yarn build

=== Style Code Guide

See the link:./STYLE_GUIDE.adoc[STYLE CODE GUIDE file].

=== Testing To run the tests, the standard command yarn test is valid, but since some tests are using link:https://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/en/snapshot-testing.html[snapshots] the preferred command is to update them in the same time: [source,shell]

yarn test -u

Then hit a to run all tests.

After running the tests, if any snapshot has been modified (check git status), the diff should be reviewed to make sure it's an intentional or trivial change. Modified snapshots must be part of the commit so that they're reviewed collectively and won't make CI build fail.

Note: for OS/X users testing requires watchman to be installed [source,shell]

brew install watchman

== Testing Libraries for Vulnerabilities We use https://snyk.io/[Snyk] for JS vulnerability testing. Snyke will run automatically on every commit pushed to kiali-ui.

If you wish to run Snyk manually to test before you push, then the following command can be used: [source,shell]

yarn run snyk

== Production Builds Use yarn build which will bundle the build artifacts using webpack into the build directory.

== Analyze Javascript Library Size To produce a graphical representation of the all the libraries in the project (showing what % of total each one is). [source,shell]

yarn build yarn run analyze

Which will then launch a browser with your graphical source map displayed.

== Configure Kiali Use the link:https://github.com/kiali/kiali-ui/blob/master/src/Config.ts[config file] to configure Kiali-UI.
