Web gui

[gedw99]

Is there a web GUI ? I did not see one so asking here

if not can design one in golang that is real time so that all parties see the latest state.

I don’t need it to be able to edit things , just to be screws only view .

The reason I need this is so that operators have an easy way to see what’s running .

Task File also has a TUI and a Web GUI, and I use Process Compile with Task File.

Happy to discuss ..

polite ping :)

if there is a API I can make a reactive web gui in golang and you can take a look.

if there is no api i can wraps the cli and parse the inputs and outputs .

Found the app.

It’s using web sockets so I can build off that .

I’m going to wrap that api and see if I can also built a dash board as well as a global monitor so that you can control and upgrade your process compose based systems anywhere .

if you have any thoughts feel free to shout .

My intent is that you can have replicas and singletons to build trees of servers of process compose machines .

kind of like docker swarm but synergistic with how process compose api works.

I need this because I support scientists that run their work loads in their labs , and don’t use docker containers . Instead I am using WASM and wazero to allow other scientists to exchange WASM with each other and so run each others workloads without needing too trust the WASM is not doing naughty things .

they need a way to control a cluster of servers with lots of process compose things running . I’m planning to control each process compile binary and give each a random port , so that they are isolated from each other , with a simple registry tracking system .

Hey @gedw99,

I think that a web GUI can be an amazing addition to the process compose users.
The attach PC client uses REST API and WebSockets to perform everything remotely.
Everything is documented in the Open API definitions file:
https://github.com/F1bonacc1/process-compose/blob/main/src/docs/swagger.json
Also, when PC is running, you can open the Swagger documentation page:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/swagger/index.html

Thanks will have a go at it .

Will use htmx, so it’s easy for golang coders to modify . Nice and simple

In this case I would recommend using the client package in PC.

Makes sense

hey @F1bonacc1

Is there any events that PC can throw ?

For the WEB GUI to stay in real time sync I need events. I do not want it to get behind.
I also want to be able to see many PC Servers from one Web GUI and so events make it very easy.

Here is one obvious candidate where we can through events.

I can then catch the events and then rebuild my Dat structure as projection off the Events Stream.
