Just replace `localhost` by the host -name or ip when XDS server is running on another host. So you can now connect -your browser to this url and use what we call the **XDS dashboard**. - -```bash -xdg-open http://localhost:8000 -``` - -Then follow instructions provided by this dashboard, knowing that the first time -you need to download and start `xds-agent` on your local machine. - -To download this tool, just click on download icon in dashboard configuration -page or download one of `xds-agent` released tarball: [https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-agent/releases](https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-agent/releases). - -See also `xds-agent` [README file](https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-agent) for more details. - -## Build xds-server from scratch - -### Dependencies - -- Install and setup [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) version 1.7 or -higher to compile this tool. -- Install [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) -- Install [gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) - -Ubuntu: - -```bash - sudo apt-get install golang npm curl git zip - sudo npm install -g gulp-cli -``` - -openSUSE: - -```bash - sudo zypper install go npm git curl zip - sudo npm install -g gulp-cli -``` - -Don't forget to open new user session after installing the packages. - -### Building - -#### Native build - -Create a GOPATH variable(must be a full path): - -```bash - export GOPATH=$(realpath ~/workspace_go) -``` - -Clone this repo into your `$GOPATH/src/github.com/iotbzh` and use delivered Makefile: - -```bash - mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/iotbzh - cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/iotbzh - git clone https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-server.git - cd xds-server - make all -``` - -And to install `xds-server` (by default in `/opt/AGL/xds/server`): - -```bash - make install -``` - ->**NOTE:** Used `DESTDIR` to specify another install directory ->```bash ->make install DESTDIR=$HOME/opt/xds-server ->``` - -#### XDS docker image - -As an alternative to a pre-build image, you can rebuild the container from scratch. -`xds-server` has been integrated as a flavour of AGL SDK docker image. -So to rebuild docker image just execute following commands: - -```bash -# Clone docker-worker-generator git repo -git clone https://git.automotivelinux.org/AGL/docker-worker-generator -# Start build that will create a docker image -cd docker-worker-generator -make build FLAVOUR=xds -``` - -### Configuration - -`xds-server` configuration is driven by a JSON config file (`config.json`). - -Here is the logic to determine which `config.json` file will be used: - -1. from command line option: `--config myConfig.json` -1. `$HOME/.xds-server/config.json` file -1. `/etc/xds-server/config.json` file -1. `<xds-server executable dir>/config.json` file - -Supported fields in configuration file are (all fields are optional and example -below corresponds to the default values): - -- **httpPort** : HTTP port of client webapp / dashboard -- **webAppDir** : location of client dashboard (default: webapp/dist) -- **shareRootDir** : root directory where projects will be copied -- **logsDir** : directory to store logs (eg. syncthing output) -- **sdkRootDir** : root directory where cross SDKs are installed -- **syncthing.binDir** : syncthing binaries directory (default: executable directory) -- **syncthing.home"** : syncthing home directory (usually .../syncthing-config) -- **syncthing.gui-address** : syncthing gui url (default http://localhost:8384) -- **syncthing.gui-apikey** : syncthing api-key to use (default auto-generated) - -```json -{ - "httpPort": 8000, - "webAppDir": "webapp/dist", - "shareRootDir": "${HOME}/.xds-server/projects", - "logsDir": "/tmp/logs", - "sdkRootDir": "/xdt/sdk", - "syncthing": { - "binDir": "./bin", -
