Dashboard App for On-Premise Deployments

[hutson]

I am looking for a similar feature to the Dashboard app, now known as the Mend Developer Portal (https://developer.mend.io/).

I often find myself supporting colleagues who need assistance with:

1. Understanding how rules between shared config repositories and their local repository are merged.
2. Why an update was skipped.
3. Why a pull request hasn't been opened yet.
4. etc.

Often that means I go into the Renovate logs and search for their repository to see what is happening. To help improve timeliness, I would like the ability to offer the Developer Portal as a way for my colleagues to have access to the logs for repositories they have write access to.

It was mentioned in 2021 that it would not be available for on-premise deployments. Then in 2022 it was mentioned it might be available later in the year.

Ultimately Renovate CE/EE have remained a separate codebase to the hosted app, and adding a dashboard still remains a challenge.

@justo-mend which parts of the automated log storage + log API are supported for CE?

[justo-mend]

Renovate CE v7.0.1 currently supports storing Renovate job logs in S3.

Job Log APIs are not available on Renovate CE yet.

[rarkins]

By that do you mean they're available for Renovate CE with Postgresql?

[justo-mend]

Updated. For clarification, Job Log APIs are not available on Renovate CE for SQLite.

Renovate CE running on PostgreSQL can use APIs to fetch a job log by Job ID, or "latest".

Using Job Log APIs (v7.0.1 supports Renovate CE on PostgreSQL DB)

Latest job log for a repo:

• [GET] /api/repos/{org}/{repo}/-/jobs/latest

Get specific job log by Job ID:

• [GET] /api/repos/{org}/{repo}/-/jobs/{jobId}
• [GET] /api/job/logs/{jobId}
