Mainflux IoT Admin UI based on Angular 8+ and <a href="https://github.com/akveo/nebular">Nebular</a>

Prerequisites

The following are needed to run the UI:

Install

For a quick setup, pre-built images from Docker Hub can be used.

First, make sure that docker and docker-compose are installed. Also, stop existing Mainflux containers if any.

Then, use the following instructions:

git clone https://github.com/mainflux/ui.git
cd ui
make run

UI should be now up and running at http://localhost/.

(Note that http://localhost:3000/ is for internal use only, and is not intended to be used by the end-user.)

More configuration (port numbers, etc.) can be done by editing the .env file before make run.

Usage

A developer build from the source can be achieved using the following command:

make ui

Then, to start the Mainflux UI as well as other Mainflux services:

make run

For more developer tools, run angular-cli:

cd ui
npm install
npm start

Uninstall

To remove the installed containers and volumes, run:

make clean

Behind a proxy

When using authentication with proxy like Oauth2-proxy we dont need a login form. UI only needs to check if there is authenticated session by accessing /tokens endpoint. Request to /tokens endpoint in this use case is also handled by proxy. When UI receieves token it can be assumed that authentication is successfull, requests to backend will be authenticated by the means of authenticated session on proxy so token is not needed to authenticate requests but it may be used for restricting access to some endpoints (e.g. based on a role in token) To use UI in this mode where backend is behind authentication proxy you need to set envs in .env.
