Webapp AS Visualization

More installation and usage information is available on the SCION Tutorials web page for webapp.

Webapp

Webapp is a Go application that will serve up a static web portal to make it easy to visualize and experiment with SCIONLab test apps on a virtual machine.

Packaged Setup/Run

For running webapp in a packaged environment, like the default SCIONLab environment, it now uses command-line options for webapp to find the tools it requires.

To install from our packages, install webapp including its scion-apps dependencies:

sudo apt install scion-apps-webapp

Alternatively, the following will install all scion-apps binaries:

sudo apt install scion-apps-*

Start the webapp service:

sudo systemctl start scion-webapp

Ensure the webapp service is running:

sudo systemctl status scion-webapp

Now, open a web browser at http://127.0.0.1:8000, to begin.

Logs from webapp can be monitored:

journalctl -u scion-webapp -e

You won't need to add all the parameters yourself as the scion-webapp.service will do this for you. You may view the service command line options used with cat:

systemctl cat scion-webapp

Development Setup/Run

For maintenance of webapp details of its structure and operation can be found at development.md.

For running webapp in a development environment for the SCION Infrastructure, follow the SCIONLab development install and run process at https://github.com/netsec-ethz/scion.

Then, follow these steps to install SCIONLab Apps to run webapp in development.

Development Install:

mkdir ~/go/src/github.com/netsec-ethz
cd ~/go/src/github.com/netsec-ethz
git clone https://github.com/netsec-ethz/scion-apps.git

Development Build: Install all SCIONLab apps and dependencies, including webapp:

cd scion-apps
./deps.sh
make build

Development Run on ScionLab Topology: You can alter the defaults on the command line, all of which are listed below:

./bin/scion-webapp \
-a 127.0.0.1 \
-p 8000 \
-r $GOPATH/src/github.com/netsec-ethz/scion-apps/webapp/web/data \
-srvroot $GOPATH/src/github.com/netsec-ethz/scion-apps/webapp/web \
-sgen /etc/scion \
-sgenc /var/lib/scion

or can you run webapp like this, which will use the defaults above:

./bin/scion-webapp

Development Run on Local Topology:

./bin/scion-webapp \
-a 127.0.0.1 \
-p 8080 \
-r $GOPATH/src/github.com/netsec-ethz/scion-apps/webapp/web/data \
-srvroot $GOPATH/src/github.com/netsec-ethz/scion-apps/webapp/web \
-sgen $HOME/scion/gen \
-sgenc  $HOME/scion/gen-cache

Dependencies

A list of dependencies for webapp can be found at dependencies.md.
