Switch to standard Redfish auth endpoint

To be able to talk to a Redfish-compliant implementation webui should
switch from old non-standard login and logout endpoints to creating a
Session via an appropriate POST request and to DELETE it on logout. This
also gives us standard Session object with all the relevant parameters
which allows the frontend to know what session it's using, what
permissions it has etc.

This works against bmcweb which checks for the presence of
webui-vue-specific "X-Requested-With" header in the request and provides
cookies in addition to the Redfish authentication token in the header.

Tested: logging in, logging out, navigating the pages, reloading the
page doesn't require logging in (if the session isn't expired),
WebSocket connections work.

webui-vue

webui-vue is a web-based user interface for the OpenBMC firmware stack built on Vue.js.

Hold on... What happened to phosphor-webui?

phosphor-webui was built on AngularJS and AngularJS went End of Life on June 30, 2021. This repository is its replacement.

When will this new Vue.js application reach feature parity with phosphor-webui?

A few, mostly minor, features remain for feature parity. See GitHub Issues label:phosphor-webui-feature-parity for the complete list.

What improvements does webui-vue have?

As mentioned, this application is built using Vue.js, a modern open-source Model-View-ViewModel JavaScript framework supported by an active community and strong documentation. It has been architected to allow organizations to easily update the theme to support their brand. This rewrite takes advantage of front-end development best practices and does not suffer from some of the anti-patterns that exist in phosphor-webui today.

Should I switch to webui-vue from phosphor-webui?

It is recommended you switch from phosphor-webui if you haven't already.

webui-vue has the following additional features:

  • Ability to easily theme to meet brand guidelines
  • Accessibility
  • Full Redfish
  • Improved user experience based on user feedback
  • Language translation-ready
  • Modern front-end framework with an active community and future development roadmap

How can I get involved?

Documentation

The documentation for coding standards and components is located in the docs directory. It is created using the VuePress static site generator. Information about how to write documentation can be found on the VuePress website.
