---------------------------------------
Hi [~Jayamal],
Welcome aboard!
I would encourage you to:
- Get a running WebAdmin API and query it a bit. You could use docker version
of James for this. Note: Sprint do not support web-admin.
- work on some issues related to James:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20JAMES%20AND%20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20newbie%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC%2C%20updated%20DESC
or
https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20JAMES%20AND%20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20easyfix%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC%2C%20updated%20DESC
This will enable us to start working together with the community. Furthermore,
you will get more familiar with the James code base.
- Prepare a more precise plan regarding this issue.
- What tool would you use to implement this administration website?
- What endpoints would we need to add in the web-admin API?
- Start thinking about a possible list of sub-tasks....
Cheers,
Benoit
> Implement a web ui for James administration
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JAMES-1931
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1931
> Project: James Server
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: webadmin
> Reporter: Matthieu Baechler
> Priority: Major
> Labels: backend, feature, frontend, gsoc2018, java, js, json,
> rest, sse
>
> James today provides a command line tool to do administration tasks like
> creating a domain, listing users, setting quota, etc.
> It requires access to JMX port and even if lot of admins are confortable with
> such tools, to make our user base broader, we probably should expose the same
> commands in Rest and provide a fancy default web ui.
> The task would need some basic skills on frontend tools to design an
> administration board, knowledge on what REST mean and enough Java
> understanding to add commands to existing Rest backend.
> In the team, we have a strong focus on test (who want a mail server that is
> not tested enough ?) so we will explain and/or teach the student how to have
> the right test coverage of the features using modern tools like Cucumber,
> Selenium, rest-assured, etc.
