openstack-health

webclient for visualizing test results of OpenStack CI jobs.

Installation

API

Frontend

Installation of the frontend requires Node.js and Gulp. On Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install nodejs npm nodejs-legacy
sudo npm install -g gulp

Then, install the Node modules by running, from the project directory:

npm install

Usage - Development

API

To run the REST API for development you either install the openstack_health python package and run:

$ openstack_health_api config_file

or alternatively just can just run the api.py file manually. For example, from the top of the repo you would run:

$ python2 openstack_health/api.py config_file

This will start up a local webserver listening on the localhost. You can then send requests to the specified port on stdout to see the response.

Frontend

A development server can be run as follows:

gulp dev

This will open a web browser and reload code automatically as it changes on the filesystem.

Usage - Production

API

The rest api is a flask application so any of the methods for deploying a flask application can be used. The standalone entrypoint used for development isn't suitable for production because it's single threaded. For example you can use something like uwsgi or mod_wsgi to deploy it for real.

Frontend

The production application can be build using:

gulp prod

The result will be written to ./build and should be appropriate for distribution. Note that all files are not required:

• Directory structure (js/, css/, fonts/, images/): required.
• Static resources (fonts/, images/): required.
• Core files (index.html, js/main.js, css/main.css): required unless gzipped versions are used.
• Gzipped versions of core files (*.gz): not required, but preferred. Use instead of plain core files to save on disk usage and bandwidth.
• Source maps (js/main.js.map, js/main.js.map.gz): only required for debugging purposes.
