# emc
|
|
|
|
_The minimally declarative service catalog._
|
|
|
|
Pronounced "MC" as in the master of ceremonies.
|
|
|
|
## Background
|
|
|
|
In the last three jobs I've worked at, it's always been a hassle trying to locate the various dashboards, documentation,
|
|
and support for a given project. I joined effx to try and help address just that. As I've been spinning up a new cluster,
|
|
I found myself wanting a landing page for the systems that I use regularly.
|
|
|
|
## Building your catalog
|
|
|
|
The `emc` service catalog is defined using a simple Golang script. This makes it easy for engineers to drop in their
|
|
own functionality for rendering links, link groups, or services. For an example, see the provided `grafana` package
|
|
which includes several of my personal dashboards for different systems.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// catalog.go
|
|
|
|
//go:build ignore
|
|
// +build ignore
|
|
|
|
package main
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"github.com/mjpitz/emc/catalog"
|
|
"github.com/mjpitz/emc/catalog/grafana"
|
|
"github.com/mjpitz/emc/catalog/linkgroup"
|
|
"github.com/mjpitz/emc/catalog/service"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
catalog.Serve(
|
|
catalog.Service(
|
|
"Drone",
|
|
service.LogoURL("https://path/to/drone-logo.png"),
|
|
service.URL("https://drone.example.com"),
|
|
service.Description("Drone is a self-service Continuous Integration platform for busy development teams."),
|
|
service.Metadata("Contact", "drone@example.com"),
|
|
service.LinkGroup(
|
|
"Dashboards",
|
|
linkgroup.Link("Drone", grafana.Drone("cicd", "drone")),
|
|
linkgroup.Link("Golang", grafana.Golang("cicd", "drone")),
|
|
linkgroup.Link("Litestream", grafana.Litestream("cicd", "drone")),
|
|
linkgroup.Link("Redis Queue", grafana.Redis("cicd", "drone-redis-queue")),
|
|
),
|
|
service.LinkGroup(
|
|
"Documentation",
|
|
linkgroup.Link("docs.drone.io", "https://docs.drone.io/"),
|
|
),
|
|
),
|
|
// ...
|
|
)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Hosting your catalog
|
|
|
|
Once you've built your catalog, you can easily run a landing page by executing the catalog file.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ go run ./catalog.go
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This starts a web server for you to interact with on `localhost:8080`. If `:8080` is already in use, you can configure
|
|
the bind address be passing the `-bind_address` flag with the desired host and port.
