Forest Guard is a Taiga dashboard where managers (and any logged user) can see what their teammates are working on (tasks and issues). It is built using the great admin-on-rest framework.

The main view is a grid list of users and their assigned tasks and issues that are not closed yet.

Start the project

Using yarn

You need to have yarn installed on your computer. First, install dependencies with

$ yarn install

Then you are ready to run the project using

$ yarn start

If you have a custom Taiga instance, set REACT_APP_API_URL and REACT_APP_API_URL variables as you start the project or place them in a .env file:

$ REACT_APP_BASE_URL=http://taiga.tag-ip.com REACT_APP_API_URL=http://taiga.tag-ip.com/api/v1 yarn start

Using docker

Build the docker image with

$ docker build -t forest-guard .

You can set the REACT_APP_API_URL and REACT_APP_API_URL variables if needed using

$ docker build --build-arg REACT_APP_API_URL=http://taiga.tag-ip.com/api/v1 --build-arg REACT_APP_BASE_URL=http://taiga.tag-ip.com -t forest-guard .

Then you run the image (here on port 8056) with

$ docker run -p 8056:80 --name forest-guard --rm forest-guard

Finally, you can push the image in a registry (either docker hub or a private registry) so it can be used from anywhere else :

$ docker tag forest-guard registry.example.org/forest-guard:latest
$ docker push registry.example.org/forest-guard:latest
