Install MetaStore Frontend

Requirements

• Apache2
• Git

Build Indexing-Service

The first step is to download the repository from git:

user@server:~# git clone https://github.com/kit-data-manager/frontend-collection.git
Cloning into 'frontend-collection'...

remote: Counting objects: 100% (329/329), done.

Receiving objects: 100% (1437/1437), 10.75 MiB | 7.28 MiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (616/616), done.
user@server:~# cd frontend-collection/

Checkout branch ‘docker-metastore’ to reduce configuration effort.

user@server:~/frontend-collection# git checkout docker-metastore
Branch 'docker-metastore' set up to track remote branch 'docker-metastore' from 'origin'.
Switched to a new branch 'docker-metastore'
user@server:~/frontend-collection# 

Setup frontend for specific server. Edit ‘js/metastore.settings.js’. It may look like this:

export let ajaxBaseUrl = "https://'FQDN'/api/v1/";

export const keycloak = undefined;

export const showServiceUrl = false;

export const appDescription = {
    "app-logo":"./images/metadata.jpg",
    "app-title":"MetaStore Frontend 4 Docker",
    "app-subtitle":"Schema and Metadata Management"
};

---

NOTE

Replace ‘FQDN’ by the fully qualified hostname of your MetaStore Server.(e.g.: export let ajaxBaseUrl = “https://www.example.org/api/v1”;)

If you are using a proxy, there is no need for a port.

---

Copy all files to apaches ‘DocumentRoot’ you may have configured in beforehand. (Default: /var/www/html)

user@server:~/frontend-collection# sudo cp -R ../frontend-collection/ /var/www/'FQDN'/frontend

Check installation: Use your favourite browser to go to http(s)://’FQDN’/frontend. If you see the schema management page without any errors, everything is fine.:-)

Congratulations: You are done!
