This is the frontend application for Insights Inventory. It is based on the insights-frontend-starter-app.

There is a comprehensive quick start guide in the Storybook Documentation to setting up an Insights environment complete with:

• A frontend application
• Insights Chroming
• [Insights Proxy]

Note: You will need to set up the Insights environment if you want to develop the inventory app due to the consumption of the chroming service as well as setting up your global/app navigation through the API.

Insights Proxy is required to run the inventory frontend application. Note that a inventory-specific proxy configuration is required for now for the frontend application to be able to talk to the Inventory API POC. To run the proxy with inventory-specific configuration run:

SPANDX_CONFIG="$(pwd)/insights-inventory-frontend/config/spandx.config.js" bash insights-proxy/scripts/run.sh

1. npm install

2. npm run start

   • starts webpack bundler and serves the files with webpack dev server

You don't have to run insights proxy to serve your application, you can use built in webpack-proxy by running

npm run start:proxy

If you want to run inventory app in beta environment accessible on /beta/insights/inventory you can do that by add BETA=true before each start command

BETA=true npm start

or

BETA=true npm run start:proxy

or building for beta environment

BETA=true npm run build

If you want to see changes made in inventory table in another application you will have to run both inventory and desired application. We'll take for example insights-advisor-frontend application as app that uses system detail.

Run the inventory application

npm start

Open new terminal and navigate to desired application (for instance insights-adviror-frontend) and run it (make sure to run it on different port)

npm start

Open new terminal, navigate to insights-proxy and run it with

LOCAL_API=advisor:8003~https SPANDX_CONFIG="$(pwd)/insights-inventory-frontend/config/spandx.config.js" bash insights-proxy/scripts/run.

If you want to run advisor and for instance vulnerability just add new entry to LOCAL_API

LOCAL_API=advisor:8003~https,vulnerability:8004

Open new terminal and navigate to desired application (for instance insights-adviror-frontend) and run it (make sure to run it on different port)

npm start

Run the inventory application with proxy enabled and list of additional applications

LOCAL_API=advisor:8003~https npm run start:proxy

If you want to run advisor and for instance vulnerability just add new entry to LOCAL_API

LOCAL_API=advisor:8003~https,vulnerability:8004

There is an npm script that runs the build, JS and CSS linters and unit tests. The script can be invoked by npm run verify
