# Agendash

A Dashboard for [Agenda](https://github.com/agenda/agenda).

---

### Features

- Job status auto-refreshes: 60-second polling by default.
- Schedule a new job from the UI.
- Dive in to see more details about the job, like the json data.
- Requeue a job. Clone the data and run immediately.
- Delete jobs. Useful for cleaning up old completed jobs.
- Search jobs by name and metadata. Supports querying by Mongo Object Id.
- Pagination
- Responsive UI

# Troubleshooting

### Index for sorting

It may be required to create the following index for faster sorting (see [#24](https://github.com/agenda/agendash/issues/24))

```
db.agendaJobs.ensureIndex({
"nextRunAt" : -1,
"lastRunAt" : -1,
"lastFinishedAt" : -1
}, "agendash")
```

# Roadmap

- [ ] Get more test coverage
- [ ] Add middlewares for fastify, and other express-like libraries
- [ ] You decide! Submit a feature request

### Install

```
npm install --save agendash
```

_Note_: `Agendash` requires mongodb version >2.6.0 to perform the needed aggregate queries. This is your mongo database version, not your node package version! To check your database version, connect to mongo and run `db.version()`.

### Middleware usage

#### Express

Agendash provides Express middleware you can use at a specified path, for example this will
make Agendash available on your site at the `/dash` path. Note: Do not try to mount Agendash
at the root level like `app.use('/', Agendash(agenda))`.

```js
var express = require("express");
var app = express();

// ... your other express middleware like body-parser

var Agenda = require("agenda");
var Agendash = require("agendash");

var agenda = new Agenda({ db: { address: "mongodb://127.0.0.1/agendaDb" } });
// or provide your own mongo client:
// var agenda = new Agenda({mongo: myMongoClient})

app.use("/dash", Agendash(agenda));

// ... your other routes

// ... start your server
```

By mounting Agendash as middleware on a specific path, you may provide your
own authentication for that path. For example if you have an authenticated
session using passport, you can protect the dashboard path like this:

```js
app.use(
"/dash",
function (req, res, next) {
if (!req.user || !req.user.is_admin) {
res.send(401);
} else {
next();
}
},
Agendash(agenda)
);
```

Other middlewares will come soon in the folder `/lib/middlewares/`.
You'll just have to update the last line to require the middleware you need:

```js
app.use(
"/agendash",
Agendash(agenda, {
middleware: "connect",
})
);
```

Note that if you use a CSRF protection middleware like [`csurf`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/csurf), you might need to [configure it off](https://github.com/agenda/agendash/issues/23#issuecomment-270917949) for Agendash-routes.

#### Hapi

A minimum Node.js version 12 is required for `@hapi/hapi` dependency.

```shell
npm i @hapi/inert @hapi/hapi
```

```js
const agenda = new Agenda().database(
"mongodb://127.0.0.1/agendaDb",
"agendaJobs"
);

const server = require("@hapi/hapi").server({
port: 3002,
host: "localhost",
});
await server.register(require("@hapi/inert"));
await server.register(
Agendash(agenda, {
middleware: "hapi",
})
);

await server.start();
```

Then browse to `http://localhost:3002/`.

#### Koa

```shell
npm i koa koa-bodyparser koa-router koa-static
```

```js
const agenda = new Agenda().database(
"mongodb://127.0.0.1/agendaDb",
"agendaJobs"
);

const Koa = require("koa");
const app = new Koa();
const middlewares = Agendash(agenda, {
middleware: "koa",
});
for (const middleware of middlewares) {
app.use(middleware);
}

await app.listen(3002);
```

Then browse to `http://localhost:3002/`.

#### Fastify

```shell
npm i fastify
```

```js
const agenda = new Agenda().database(
"mongodb://127.0.0.1/agendaDb",
"agendaJobs"
);

const Fastify = require("fastify");
const fastify = new Fastify();

fastify.register(
Agendash(
agenda,
{ middleware: "fastify" }
);
);

await fastify.listen(3002);
```

Then browse to `http://localhost:3002/`.

### Standalone usage

Agendash comes with a standalone Express app which you can use like this:

```bash
./node_modules/.bin/agendash --db=mongodb://localhost/agendaDb --collection=agendaCollection --port=3002
```

or like this, for default collection `agendaJobs` and default port `3000`:

```bash
./node_modules/.bin/agendash --db=mongodb://localhost/agendaDb
```

If you are using npm >= 5.2, then you can use [npx](https://medium.com/@maybekatz/introducing-npx-an-npm-package-runner-55f7d4bd282b):

```bash
npx agendash --db=mongodb://localhost/agendaDb --collection=agendaCollection --port=3002
```

Then browse to `http://localhost:3002/`.

### Docker usage

Agendash can also be run within a Docker container like this:

```bash
docker run -p 3000:3000 \
--env MONGODB_URI=mongo://myUser:myPass@myHost/myDb \
--env COLLECTION=myAgendaCollection agenda/agendash
```

Then browse to `http://localhost:3000/`.
