Have you ever thought about joining forces with the webvirtmgr project to add lxc to it and of course just improve things for both of you as a whole? You have done an amazing job with this panel and I currently use both projects, but would be even better if there was a single solution that did both! Just a thought.

No, i've not heard about it before. I want a stable version of LWP before integrate other things

MACscr commented Jun 19, 2014

I understand. Though obviously it wouldn't really be an integration. Would be more of a collaboration with their project since since it has much more features and appears to have more active contributors. Anyway, it was just an idea. Looking forward to the new release.

Will the current version of LWP work on the latest LXC? I use sudo when running the wget command, then I see the output "Saving to STDOUT", then the large graphic LXC WebPanel, then "Automatic Installer", then "You must be root to install LXC WebPanel".

would multi-user ACL include ACL against different LXC containers, such that an LXC container could be "assigned" to a user, and only admins or that user could access it? That would be ideal. Also, a console feature would be very helpful, so that users could get into their machines. Here's one I found recently:

http://www.web-console.org/

@ElieDeloumeau

Yes, actually i can add or remove containers for a user with a rule "deny" or "allow".
So if you add "ct1" and "ct2" with deny rule, the user can see all containers except "ct1" and "ct2".

I'll try to set containers ACL for groups too and the more restrictive acl will be applied

For the web console, i'm not able to translate PHP to Python and i don't know how to do this by myself :s if someone want to do that... :)

I would only recommend novnc for web console access as its almost an industry standard for large virt projects (openstack, cloudstack, cloudmin, etc).

This plan is great, and I can't wait to have a web panel for lxc 1.x.

Are there any taks or is there any schedule for the work to be done? I would like to help you out, but I don't know where to start.

Hi guys :)
I wonder if we could yet add other new features to the above todo list :

  • Backup containers (locally and remotely via NFS for example).
  • Perfom some actions (creation, cloning, etc of container(s)) in background (using workers) to avoid blocking the web application. This also should be interessting for example when we would create several containers in "parallel".
    I could work on these features on the current LWP version and I think it'll be easy to test code after on 1.0.
    what do you think?

@ElieDeloumeau

Hi abessifi,

  • Yes i look for features in lwp's forks (i will rewrite your backup function for lwp 1.0)
  • GOOD IDEA I don't know how to do that and after a small google search, i see a complicated work for me (cause i'm not developer). Can do this feature for me/us ? (this feature is needed for multiple users and multiple applications using the REST API)

Push your code in a public repository, so real developers can help you.

Yes but i must write a doc
EDIT : Next week maybe?

Hi googley,
I'm not a developer too, however I like contribute with some code snippets to some smart projects ;)

@zidarsk8

I would agree with @alexkn. It would be nice to see the code, so we can start helping, even if the doc is missing.

@Googley, do consider spending a few minutes pushing the whatever progress you have on the code to a branch. And possibly add @claudyus as a maintainer; he's doing some great work on his fork. Shame to see an awesome project go out of date..

@Googley do you have any updates?

@Googley I am more than happy to help on this. Please say what's the current status and push your current code and we will help you making it beautiful and working.

@ElieDeloumeau

Hi, current status: i'm very busy :-(
What's the best solution ? :

  • Stay with one repo with backend + frontend
    or
  • Split repo with one for backend/REST API and one for frontend

@sergey-dryabzhinsky
Copy link

Split.
You'll can transform backend into something like standalone/node/SaaS with API.
Frontend(s) will follow.

Hum hum... Sorry for the long wait...

Voilà : https://github.com/lxc-webpanel/lxc-rest

@fossxplorer

@Googley THX. But lxc-rest is similar to LXD REST API?
Also, please strongly consider a merger with https://github.com/retspen/webvirtcloud as suggested by ohters. Whenever webvirtcloud also supports LXC it's gonna be an awesome project.

If anyone want to test the API pre-release : https://github.com/lxc-webpanel/lxc-rest/releases/tag/1.0-beta1

@jinnatar

Cool. Got the API running and some functions seem to be working (GET /api/v1/lxc/containers sadly didn't return anything) .. Not so lucky with the dashboard, npm install fails. Is it too early for bug reports or do you want more details filed against the new projects?

@ElieDeloumeau

Member Author

Oh! Thanks for trying it 😸 The dashboard isn't ready (and there is only a login page for now).
Did you logged in before GET /api/v1/lxc/containers? And did you pass the token?
Please open an issue if you get an error on https://github.com/lxc-webpanel/lxc-rest/issues/new
