Kubeflow Dashboard Operator - a component of the Charmed Kubeflow distribution from Canonical

This repository hosts the Kubeflow Dashboard operaotr (see CharmHub.

Upstream documentation can be found at https://www.kubeflow.org/docs/components/central-dash/overview/

Usage

The Kubeflow Dashboard Operator may be deployed using the Juju command line as follows

juju deploy kubeflow-dashboard --trust

The dashboard can't be deployed without the Kubeflow profiles service (otherwise the charm will stuck in waiting state). Please deploy the kubeflow-pipelines operator with

juju deploy kubeflow-pipelines --trust

And create a relation to dashboard:

juju relate kubeflow-profiles kubeflow-dashboard

Managing Dashboard Sidebar Links

Links in the dashboard can be managed through:

• relating applications to this charm on the sidebar relation
• adding sidebar links through the additional-sidebar-links config option.

Sidebar item ordering can be managed through the sidebar-link-order config option.

Adding Sidebar Links through the sidebar Relation

To relate an application to this charm, use the charm library for the KubeflowDashboardSidebarRequirer. See that file for usage instructions.

Adding Sidebar Links through the additional-sidebar-links Config

The additional-sidebar-links config allows for users to specify YAML or JSON input defining sidebar links. For example, you can define a file my_links.yaml:

- text: Some link
  link: /some-page
  type: item
  icon: book
- text: Some other link
  link: /some-other-page
  type: item
  icon: book

Where:

• text: the text shown on the sidebar
• link: the relative link within the platform (cannot be an external link - must be something that shares our gateway)
• type: always item
• icon: any icon from here

To pass this to Juju, do:

juju config kubeflow-dashboard additional-sidebar-links=@my_links.yaml

To edit existing links, export them to a file, edit the file, then import back to Juju:

juju config kubeflow-dashboard additional-sidebar-links > links_to_edit.yaml

# edit the file

juju config kubeflow-dashboard additional-sidebar-links=@links_to_edit.yaml

Define the Order of Sidebar Links

You can define the order of the sidebar links via a YAML or JSON list of strings in the sidebar-link-order config. For example:

juju config kubeflow-dashboard sidebar-link-order='["link1 text", "link2 text"]'

Where each string in the list is the text value that shows in the sidebar. The charm will order the sidebar links such that:

• links that are included in sidebar-link-order, in the order from that configuration
• any remaining links, in alphabetical order

Any link text that is defined in sidebar-link-order but not matching a sidebar item will be silently ignored, this way you can set defaults without needing to update them if links are removed.
