Make two webpack plugin modifications First, remove the preload plugin installed by default. Given that the login page requires the complete javascript package to be loaded before the page can be rendered, and doing the rendering inside of bmcweb before javascript is loaded[1] doesn't seem to be desired by the community, preloading it does us essentially no good. The DOM itself is tiny. This fixes a split second flash that's seen on refresh, where the DOM is loaded, but the javascript has not, so there's no content to render. Second, modify the html loader plugin to produce the hash of the file at output, thus allowing the index file to be cached, and allowing the etag machinery[2] to work. [1] https://gerrit.openbmc.org/c/openbmc/bmcweb/+/35456 [2] https://gerrit.openbmc.org/c/openbmc/bmcweb/+/70644 Tested: After this patch, nearly all resources on refresh return 304, not modified from bmcweb. This significantly reduces the requirements for TLS encryption on the BMC. Change-Id: I7189c6024cacba099705ff6d27e4567bf88f3df4 Signed-off-by: Ed Tanous <ed@tanous.net>
webui-vue is a web-based user interface for the OpenBMC firmware stack built on Vue.js.
phosphor-webui was built on AngularJS and AngularJS went End of Life on June 30, 2021. This repository is its replacement.
A few, mostly minor, features remain for feature parity. See GitHub Issues label:phosphor-webui-feature-parity for the complete list.
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.
It is recommended you switch from phosphor-webui if you haven't already.
webui-vue has the following additional features:
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.
