generic api-agnostic admin dashboard interface, like ng-admin but less javascript-ish.

NOTE: under construction / do not use

Usage

<script type="text/javascript" src="dist/riot-admin.js"/>

<!-- customize collection header here -->
<script type="riot/tag">
  <collection-header>
    <h3>{ title }</h3>
  </collection-header>
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
  riotadmin({
    "project":{
      "title": "riotadmin.io",
      "logo": "<i class='fa fa-fw fa-globe'/>&nbsp;",
      "url": "http://mylandingpage.com"
    },
    "menu":{
      "items":[

        .....

        { 
          "icon":"<i class='fa fa-fw fa-area-chart'></i>&nbsp;",
          "label": "Link",
          "href":"/foo",
          "target": "_blank",
          "type":"link"
        },

        .....

        },{
          "icon":"<i class='fa fa-fw fa-exchange'></i>&nbsp;",
          "label":"REST items",
          "href":"#/rest-items",
          "type":"collection",
          "data": function(cb,options){
            // replace data with an ajax/rest call (use options object to pass on query,sort,order,limit,offset etc)
            cb({
              title: "This is a collection",
              data:[
                {"name":"bar","age":12,"type":"human","sex":"male","likes fishing":"no"},
                {"name":"bar","age":13,"type":"human","sex":"male","likes fishing":"no"},
                {"name":"bar","age":14,"type":"human","sex":"male","likes fishing":"no"},
                {"name":"bar","age":15,"type":"human","sex":"male","likes fishing":"yes"},
                {"name":"bar","age":16,"type":"human","sex":"male","likes fishing":"yes"},
                {"name":"bar","age":17,"type":"human","sex":"male","likes fishing":"yes"},
                {"name":"bar","age":18,"type":"human","sex":"male","likes fishing":"yes"}
              ]
            });
          }

       ..... and so on

Building

This is optional (for those who want to fiddle with the source), but here goes:

$ npm install riot-admin 
// now run test/index.html in your browser

finally this will bundle everything into dist/riot-admin.js

$ npm run-script compile

Philosophy

• built to re-use
• configure from json
• extend to own flavor
• no steep javascript learning curve (ng-admin)
• you need to provide data using ajax/rest/websocket etc
