consul-ui

Prerequisites

You will need the following things properly installed on your computer.

• Git
• Node.js (with npm)
• yarn
• Ember CLI
• Google Chrome

Installation

• git clone https://github.com/hashicorp/consul.git this repository
• cd ui-v2
• yarn install

All tooling scripts below primarily use make which in turn call node package scripts.

Running / Development

The source code comes with a small development mode that runs enough of the consul API as a set of mocks/fixtures to be able to run the UI without having to run consul.

• make start or yarn start to start the ember app
• Visit your app at http://localhost:4200.

To enable ACLs using the mock API, use Web Inspector to set a cookie as follows:

CONSUL_ACLS_ENABLE=1

This will enable the ACLs login page, to which you can login with any ACL token/secret.

You can also use a number of other cookie key/values to set various things whilst developing the UI, such as (but not limited to):

CONSUL_SERVICE_COUNT=1000
CONSUL_NODE_CODE=1000
// etc etc

See ./node_modules/@hashicorp/consul-api-double for more details.

If you wish to run the UI code against a running consul instance, uncomment the proxy line in .ember-cli to point ember-cli to your consul instance.

You can also run the UI against a normal Consul installation.

make start-consul or yarn run start:consul will use the CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR environment variable to locate the Consul installation. If that it not set start-consul will use http://localhost:8500.

Example usage:

CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR=http://10.0.0.1:8500 make start-consul

Code Generators

Make use of the many generators for code, try ember help generate for more details

Running Tests

Please note: You do not need to run make start-api/yarn run start:api to run the tests, but the same mock consul API is used.

• make test or yarn run test
• make test-view or yarn run test:view to view the tests running in Chrome

Linting

make lint currently runs linting on the majority of js files and hbs files (using ember-template-lint).

See .eslintrc.js and .eslintignore for specific configuration.

Building

• make build builds the UI for production usage (env=production)
• make build-ci builds the UI for CI/test usage (env=test)

Static files are built into ./dist

Running Tests in Parallel

Alternatively, ember-exam can be used to split the tests across multiple browser instances for faster results. Most options are the same as ember test. To see a full list of options, run ember exam --help.

Note: The EMBER_EXAM_PARALLEL environment variable must be set to override the default parallel value of 1 browser instance in testem.js.

To quickly run the tests across 4 parallel browser instances:

make test-parallel

To run manually:

$ EMBER_EXAM_PARALLEL=true ./node_modules/.bin/ember exam --split <num> --parallel

More ways to split tests can be found in the ember-exam README.md.
