### Compile from source
### Manual installation (Linux)
#### Clone and build
I really don't anticipate people to use this, so go forth at your own risk.
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/phntxx/dashboard.git
$ cd dashboard/
$ yarn
$ yarn build
$ yarn serve:production
```sh
git clone https://github.com/phntxx/dashboard.git
cd dashboard
yarn
yarn build
```
### Manual install
#### Move the files
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/phntxx/dashboard.git
$ cd dashboard/
$ yarn
$ yarn build
$ cp -R build/* .
You can move the files to any different location. This is an example, that the rest of the guide will work with.
```sh
mkdir /var/www/dashboard/html
cp -r build/ data/ src/ /var/www/dashboard/html
```
#### `/etc/nginx/conf.d/dashboard.conf`
#### Configure users and permissions
Only do the next two steps if your `www-data` user does __not__ exist. Check `grep www-data /etc/passwd`
```sh
groupadd www-data
useradd -a -G www-data www-data
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/dashboard
```
server {
server_name localhost;
listen 8080;
#### Configure nginx
Edit the `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf` file. Append the `server {...}` section as shown below, or you can refer to [example nginx.conf config](./nginx.conf) if in doubt. Be mindful of the `user www-data` if you're running other services.
```nginx
user www-data;
# ...
http {
# ...
# dashboard server listener
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost; # edit as needed if using your own domain
root /var/www/dashboard/html/;
location / {
index index.html index.htm;
index index.html index.htm;
}
}
}
```
```bash
$ cd ..
$ mkdir /var/www/dashboard
$ mv dashboard/ html
$ mv html/ /var/www/dashboard
$ chown -R www-data:www-data
$ systemctl nginx reload
```
#### Last step
As a last step, reload nginx
`systemctl reload nginx`
Now you should be able to visit your dashboard at `http://localhost/`
## Configuration
There's a couple of things you can / need to configure to get Dashboard to look and behave just as you want it to.
If you don't require a specific component, just remove the file from your `data`-directory. Dashboard won't render the components whose files are not present. With no files present, only the greeter will be shown.
