Cockpit user interface for wicked.
Although it is in a very early stage of development, it already supports a set of basic uses cases:
- Browse interfaces and configurations.
- Configure basic IPv4/IPv6 settings.
- Set up wireless devices (only WEP and WPA-PSK are supported by now).
- Set up bridges, bonding and VLAN devices (experimental).
- Manage routes (work in progress).
- Set basic DNS settings (policy, static name servers and search list).
However, many features are still missing:
- Complete support for wireless devices.
- Support for advanced devices, like TUN/TAP or Infiniband.
- Handle IP forwarding configuration.
- Devices renaming.
- Other goodies like displaying Wicked's logs or device statistics, as the NetworkManager module already does.
make install compiles and installs the package in /usr/share/cockpit/. The
convenience targets srpm and rpm build the source and binary rpms,
respectively. Both of these make use of the dist-gzip target, which is used
to generate the distribution tarball. In production mode, source files are
automatically minified and compressed. Set NODE_ENV=production if you want to
duplicate this behavior.
For development, you usually want to run your module straight out of the git
tree. To do that, link that to the location were cockpit-bridge looks for packages:
make devel-install
After changing the code and running make again, reload the Cockpit page in
your browser.
You can also use watch mode to automatically update the webpack on every code change with
npm run watch
or
make watch
If you are interested in contributing to the development, you might be interested in checking the DEVELOPMENT.md file. It contains some interesting information about the module is organized.
- This module is based on the awesome Cockpit Starter Kit.
