## Introduction
|
|
|
|
We show how to deploy the Dashboard (devnet) on a full VM. To do so, we set an SSH tunnel and use the VSCodium Remote Explorer function. We will then be able to use a source-code editor to explore the code and see changes on a local browser.
|
|
|
|
We also show how to provide a public access to the Dashboard by setting a gateway domain to your full VM deployment. Note that this method is not production-ready and should only be used to test the Dashboard.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- TFChain account with TFT
|
|
- [Deploy full VM with WireGuard connection](../../system_administrators/getstarted/ssh_guide/ssh_wireguard.md)
|
|
- [Make sure you can connect via SSH on the terminal](../../system_administrators/getstarted/ssh_guide/ssh_openssh.md)
|
|
|
|
In this guide, we use WireGuard, but you can use other connection methods, such as [Mycelium](../../system_administrators/mycelium/mycelium_toc.md).
|
|
|
|
## Create an SSH Tunnel
|
|
|
|
- Open a terminal and create an SSH tunnel
|
|
```
|
|
ssh -4 -L 5173:127.0.0.1:5173 root@10.20.4.2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Simply leave this window open and follow the next steps.
|
|
|
|
If you use an IPv6 address, e.g. with Mycelium, set `-6` in the line above instead of `-4`.
|
|
|
|
## Editor SSH Remote Connection
|
|
|
|
You can connect via SSH through the source-code editor to a VM on the grid. In this example, WireGuard is set.
|
|
|
|
- Add the SSH Remote extension to [VSCodium](https://vscodium.com/)
|
|
- Add a new SSH remote connection
|
|
- Set the following (adjust with your own username and host)
|
|
```
|
|
Host 10.20.4.2
|
|
HostName 10.20.4.2
|
|
User root
|
|
```
|
|
- Click on `Connect to host`
|
|
|
|
## Set the VM
|
|
|
|
We set the VM to be able to build the Dashboard.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
apt update && apt install build-essential python3 -y
|
|
|
|
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.7/install.sh | bash
|
|
|
|
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
|
|
|
|
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
|
|
|
|
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" # This loads nvm bash_completion
|
|
|
|
nvm install 18
|
|
|
|
npm install -g yarn
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Build the Dashboard
|
|
|
|
We now build the Dashboard.
|
|
|
|
Clone the repository, then install, build and run the Dashboard. Note that here it is called `playground`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/threefoldtech/tfgrid-sdk-ts
|
|
|
|
cd tfgrid-sdk-ts/
|
|
|
|
yarn install
|
|
|
|
make build
|
|
|
|
make run project=playground
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can then access the dev net Dashboard on your local browser.
|
|
|
|
To stop running the Dashboard, simply enter ̀`Ctrl-C` on the terminal window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Dashboard Public Access
|
|
|
|
> Note: This method is not production-ready. Use only for testing purposes.
|
|
|
|
Once you've tested the Dashboard with the SSH tunnel, you can explore how to access it from the public Internet. For this, we will create a gateway domain and bind the host to `0.0.0.0`.
|
|
|
|
On the Full VM page, [add a domain](../../dashboard/solutions/add_domain.md) to access your deployment from the public Internet.
|
|
|
|
- Under `Actions`, click on `Manage Domains`
|
|
- Go to `Add New Domain`
|
|
- Choose a gateway domain under `Select domain`
|
|
- Set the port 5173
|
|
- Click on `Add`
|
|
|
|
To run the Dashboard from the added domain, use this instead of the previous `make run` line:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd packages/playground
|
|
yarn dev --host 0.0.0.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can then access the Dashboard from the domain you just created.
|
|
|
