iNethi Monitoring System

A dashboard for network managers to register/login, create networks, and assign devices, using a cloud API or local mock data.

Getting Started

1. Install dependencies:

   npm install

2. Configure environment variables:

   • Copy the .example file to .env.local:

     cp monitoring-ui/.example monitoring-ui/.env.local

   • Edit monitoring-ui/.env.local as needed:
     • Set NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND=true to use the backend API.
     • Set NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND=false to use local mock data from the _data folder.

3. Run the development server:

   npm run dev

   The app will be available at http://localhost:3000.

Switching Between Backend and Local Data

• Backend:
  • Set NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND=true in your .env.local file.
  • The app will fetch device data from the backend API.
• Local Data:
  • Set NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND=false in your .env.local file.
  • The app will use mock device data from monitoring-ui/_data/*.json.

Notes

• You may need to restart the dev server after changing environment variables.
