This is an alternative UI for OpenZipkin/zipkin. The motivation for implementing a new UI is to try and re-invent the existing layout while improving the usability and performance of the client-side application. Zipkin View is built from scratch using React and other JavaScript technologies.
Zipkin View requires node >= 6.10.0 to build and serve assets. After cloning the zipkin-view repo, make sure to run npm install from the root directory before running any npm scripts. You'll also need to have an instance of Zipkin running.
From the root directory, run
NODE_ENV=production ZIPKIN_API=<Zipkin instance's API URL> npm run prod -- [webpack-dev-server options]
to deploy a production server. This will serve all assets and make api requests against the specified Zipkin URL.
Suggestions and contributions are greatly appreciated! Please see the contribution guidelines.
From the root directory, run
NODE_ENV=development ZIPKIN_API=<Zipkin instance's API URL> npm run dev -- [webpack-dev-server options]
If you want to serve files using a different http server (e.g nginx), you can build production assets alone by running
NODE_ENV=production ZIPKIN_API=<Zipkin instance's API URL> npm run build
If the build is successful, the scripts should exist under the static directory. You can then configure your server to serve from the static directory. You would also need to fallback on the index page if the requested resource is not found.
