This repository contains a collection of useful tools for use with Taskcluster. Generally, we strive to not add UI to Taskcluster components, but instead offer well documented APIs that can be easily consumed using a client library for Taskcluster. See Taskcluster documentation site for details.

• Node version v6+
• Yarn

First, fork this repository to another GitHub account. Then you can clone and install:

git clone https://github.com/<YOUR_ACCOUNT>/taskcluster-tools.git
cd taskcluster-tools
yarn

• src/: source code
• src/App: top-level component, holds page layout, route rendering, and login handling
• src/views: route-based components typically matching a URL, e.g. /groups maps to src/views/UnifiedInspector
• src/components: generic components that can be used in any view (not view-specific)

Building this project uses Neutrino, neutrino-preset-mozilla-rpweb to:

• Compile ES2015+ syntax to ES5-compatible JS
• Compile React JSX to de-sugared JS
• Show ESLint errors based on R&P rules
• Build views into cacheable bundles
• Importing files directly via JS and output to the bundle

Install npm dependencies and start it up:

• yarn
• yarn start

This will start a local development server on port 9000 (http://localhost:9000).

Any ESLint errors across the project will be displayed in the terminal during development.

• yarn start: the default development build, watches src/, and serves on http://localhost:9000/
• yarn build: builds src/ files into a build/ directory

It's possible that when building a larger project like taskcluster-tools that Node.js will run out of memory for the amount of files being built during development. As a workaround, instead of running yarn start, run the following to run the same command with more memory:

node --max-old-space-size=4096 node_modules/.bin/neutrino start

You may need to adjust the memory size to your machine specs accordingly.

Until someone comes up with something better, all testing is manual. Open the tools and check that they work. :)

Ngrok allows you to expose a web server running on your local machine to the internet. Ngrok is used to create an https connection, so that you can login to the taskcluster-tools. For using ngrok:

• Create a free account on ngrok.
• Install ngrok - npm install -g ngrok or yarn global add ngrok
• Run ngrok - ngrok http 9000

^{Note: You have to run ngrok in a separate terminal/console.}
