# Helm dashboard V2
|
||||
|
||||
Welcome to our new project, upgrading helm dashbord, we call it, Helm Dashboard version... 2! 🤩
|
||||
|
||||
Helm dashboard V2 is an open source effort to modernize the helm-dashboard.
|
||||
Our goals are to create a version which is more:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Maintable
|
||||
2. Extendable
|
||||
3. Contributor friendly
|
||||
|
||||

# Legacy dashboard vs dashboard V2
|
||||
|
||||
The legacy dashboard found [here](https://github.com/komodorio/helm-dashboard/tree/main/pkg/dashboard/static) is a static webapp and was written vanilla css, jquery, javascript and html. If you inspect the code abit you may notice that its relitvly hard to extend and maintain such a project.
|
||||
|
||||
Our goal with dashboard V2 is to improve the ability to maintain and extend our dashboard app. To achive this we are using a more modern frontend stack.
|
||||
|
||||
- Vite, as our build tool.
|
||||
- React will be used to make this project more inviting for developers to contribute too.
|
||||
- TypeScript and ESLint will keep the project safe, please keep them clean.
|
||||
- Tailwind will be used for styling.
|
||||
- React-Query will be used to fetch data from the backend.
|
||||
- Storybook is utilized to develop a component library.
|
||||
|
||||
Please follow through the file structure to understand how things are structured and should be used.
|
||||

## Running legacy dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
The legacy dashboard is great for refrence and checking that you have implemented the UI correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install [helm](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/) and [kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/).
|
||||
2. `git clone https://github.com/komodorio/helm-dashboard.git`.
|
||||
3. `go build -o bin/dashboard .`
|
||||
4. `bin/dashboard`
|
||||
|
||||
The UI should now be running on http://localhost:8080/
|
||||
If you're having issues with that please follow the main README in the main folder.
|
||||
If you still having troubles please contact us on our [Slack community channel](https://join.slack.com/t/komodorkommunity/shared_invite/zt-1lz4cme86-2zIKTRtTFnzL_UNxaUS9yw)
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting up your development environment
|
||||
|
||||
1. First you should fork this repositroy.
|
||||
2. Clone your new repository using `git clone <https_or_ssh_url>`.
|
||||
3. Make sure to checkout branch `helm-dashboard-v2`.
|
||||
- `git fetch`
|
||||
- `git checkout helm-dashboard-v2`
|
||||
|
||||
## Running dashboard V2
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make sure you cloned the project correctly. This is explained in this [stage](https://github.com/komodorio/helm-dashboard/blob/helm-dashboard-v2/dashboard/README.md#setting-up-your-development-environment).
|
||||
2. go to `helm-dashboard-v2/dashboard` in your local project.
|
||||
3. inorder to install dependncies and start the development server
|
||||
- `npm i`
|
||||
- `npm run dev`
|
||||
4. with the default integration the dashboard should run on http://localhost:5173/
|
||||
|
||||
## Setting up a local cluster with ease
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/)
|
||||
2. Install [Minikube](https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/)
|
||||
3. Start your cluster `minikube start`
|
||||
|
||||
You should now be able to follow the [Helm tutorial](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/quickstart/) and interact with Helm normally.
|
||||
|
||||
## Choosing a task
|
||||
|
||||
If you are completely new to the project its recommended to look for tasks labled: `good first issue`.
|
||||
These tasks should be simple enough for a begginer or for someone looking to learn the code base.
|
||||
|
||||
You are also free to reachout to us on [Slack](https://join.slack.com/t/komodorkommunity/shared_invite/zt-1lz4cme86-2zIKTRtTFnzL_UNxaUS9yw), we can help you find a task that suits your perfectly.
|
||||

||||
for example) and get your pull request reviewed.
|
||||
|
||||
# Component library
|
||||
|
||||
We created a components library to have a consistent design system throughout the project. Please rely on these components.
|
||||
Additional information and examples on how to use them are available when you run Storybook, which shows them in an interactive way and in different scenarios.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you run it, you'll be able to see pre-made scenarios, documentation, and play with the component properties.
|
||||
|
||||
To run Storybook, make sure that all the dependencies are installed and run:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
npm run storybook
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Refer to the [official documentation](https://storybook.js.org/docs/react/get-started/install) for more information.

# Coding Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
- Use only functional components
|
||||
- Please prefer async/await over .then
|
||||
- wrap every function with try/catch unless you want to display the error to the user
|
||||
in such case we have a general error handler in the app.tsx file which will display the error to the user in a modal
|
||||
- Please use the component library we created, it will help us keep a consistent design system
|
||||
- Please use the react-query library to fetch data from the backend
|
||||
- Prefer use fetch API over axios, if you see axios in the code, replace it with fetch.
|
||||
- Use <Outlet> for inner routes
|
||||
- User query params in the url for filters or any other state that can be represented
|
||||
- Hooks:
|
||||
- useCustomSearchParams - for search params
