Deviota Nelson GUI/Monitor

This is a small http server that monitors the Nelson instance and outputs the status as a web page.
Based on create-react-app.

Getting Started

$3

- A Nelson instance (including IRI) should be running locally on your machine.
- node (version >6.9) and yarn and npm should be installed
- install serve globally: sudo npm install -g serve
- Use Firefox or Chrome browsers; there may be problems with IE (specially everything before Edge)

$3

Globally install Nelson

``
npm install -g @semkodev/nelson.gui
`

And run it

`
nelson.gui -p 5000
`

$3

You can use the node process manager to run Nelson GUI as a service.
Just do the following:

`


Install the process manager:

npm install pm2 -g

Make pm2 start at startup:

pm2 startup

Start the Nelson GUI as service

pm2 start nelson.gui --port 3333

Save current processes runing with pm2 to startup on boot:

pm2 save
`

$3

Provided you have docker installed, Nelson GUI can be started as follows:

`
docker run semkodev/nelson.gui
`

$3

Clone the project

`
git clone git@gitlab.com:semkodev/nelson.gui.git
cd nelson.gui
yarn install --pure-lockfile
node build/nelson.gui.js
`

Now your server runs at http://localhost:5000

$3

Is your Nelson's API running on a non-standard host:port (localhost:18600)?
Simply provide it when starting the GUI:

`
nelson.gui -p 5000 --apiHostname another.hostname.com --apiPort 123456
`

The data is refreshed automatically each 5 seconds (or at the heartbeat rate of your Nelson)

$3

If your Nelson's API is username/password protected (strongly recommended!),
you can specify the credentials in the URL:

`
http://www.your.gui.host.com:/#/:
`

This is the simplest way. A better login window is coming soon.

NOTE: If your Nelson API is not password protected, the GUI will
scramble all the hostnames and IPs for security reasons.

Development

The monitor is under heavy development. Please be patient.
Contribution / Pull Requests are welcome, but at this early stages where so much changes, your
work might become quickly non-mergeable and thus be in vain.
Please, for now, refrain to small PRs, thank you!
