How to use Thundernetes UI

How to config the app

The app needs a file called config.js with the endpoints to the GameServer API and to the Thundernetes manager (this is only to allocate game servers). Inside the file you need to define a variable called clusters with the following structure:

var clusters = {
  "cluster1": {
    "api": "http://{cluster1_api_IP}:5001/api/v1/",
    "allocate": "http://{cluster1_manager_IP}:5000/api/v1/allocate"
  },
  "cluster2": {
    "api": "http://{cluster2_api_IP}:5001/api/v1/",
    "allocate": "http://{cluster2_manager_IP}:5000/api/v1/allocate"
  }
}
 

How to run locally

If you want to run the project locally, first you need to install Node.js. Then clone the project:

git clone https://github.com/PlayFab/thundernetes-ui.git

And install the dependencies:

npm install

After this, you can create the config.js file inside the public folder, then you can simply run the app with the npm start command. This will start a server and open a browser to http://localhost:3000.

How to run using the Docker image

You can also run the Docker container image, all you have to do is mount a volume to pass your config.js file to the app, you can do this like this:

docker run -d -p 80:80 -v [path to your config.js]:/usr/share/nginx/html/config.js ghcr.io/playfab/thundernetes-ui:[current tag]
