Connector Login Credentials
Below are useful scripts and CLI commands to setup and manage connector applications. A proper connector deployment has about 9 services but the manager-ui
is the most important. It provides the admin UI portal for a user to create connectors, trigger a job and create organizations.
Connector services:
beehive
configuration-api
events-consumer
login
manager-ui
monitor
plugin-api
token-proxy
webhooks
webhooks-consumer
Connectors Domain
By default, the self-managed installation configures the connectors-admin-bare.lilt.com and connectors-api-bare.lilt.com subdomains with the corresponding certificates. Once the LILT installation is complete and all the LILT apps are running correctly, you should be able to access the connectors-admin UI by mapping the IP of the worker node on your local machine to connectors-admin-bare.lilt.com and connectors-api-bare.lilt.com (in Linux distributions, /etc/hosts is often the main file that holds such mappings).
The new entry at /etc/hosts, will be similar to this:
34.121.21.233 connectors-admin-bare.lilt.com connectors-api-bare.lilt.com
Once that's done, you could ping the URL connectors-admin-bare.lilt.com, and you should get the IP of the node. If that's correct and the LILT apps are running properly, you should be able to go to the browser and enter the following: https://connectors-admin-bare.lilt.com
Create user credentials for UI portal
NOTE: From Lilt versions lilt-enterprise-2024.02.08
or later, the username and password are admin
/admin
by default.
The admin portal UI doesn't have the capability to add users with buttons and also it doesn’t manage user privileges. To put it briefly, every user is an admin. There is python command tools.manage_users
for creating login users.
python -m tools.manage_users create --username <name> --password <pass>
NOTE: You must run the script inside one of the connectors Kubernetes pods, preferably the manager-ui
pod.
First display all the running connectors pods from your kubernetes namespace
$ kubectl get pods -n <NAMESPACE>
# output
lilt-manager-ui-dcfddd97c-5xd26 1/1 Running 5 (11h ago) 11h
lilt-monitor-58df986bc9-c86d9 1/1 Running 5 (11h ago) 11h
lilt-plugin-api-5b9f4c6f4f-mc5jt 1/1 Running 5 (11h ago) 11h
lilt-token-proxy-fb997f96b-pql9m 1/1 Running 0 11h
lilt-webhooks-85475cc977-wzqfw 1/1 Running 5 (11h ago) 11h
lilt-webhooks-consumer-7c98b956f8-pz67p 1/1 Running 0 11h
....
You can now attach your console to the manager-ui
pods
$ kubectl exec -it lilt-manager-ui-dcfddd97c-5xd26 bash
Create a login user admin
with password admin
python -m tools.manage_users create --username admin --password admin
Now go to your browser and login to portal, you should see:
