Skyline OpenStack dashboard

Skyline is a dashboard for Openstack with a modern technology stack.

Single Sign On (SSO)

Skyline supports SSO with an Openid IdP. When you configure an IdP with protocol openid, Kolla will automatically enable SSO and set up the trusted dashboard url for Keystone. If you don’t want to use SSO in Skyline, you can disable it by setting skyline_enable_sso to “no”:

skyline_enable_sso: "no"

If you want to enable it without setting up the IdP with Kolla you can simply enable it with:

skyline_enable_sso: "yes"

Customize logos

To change some of the logos used by Skyline you can overwrite the default logos. Not all images can be replaced, you can change the browser icon, the two logos on the login screen and the logo in the header once you are logged in.

To overwrite the files create the directory {{ node_custom_config }}/skyline/logos and place the files you want to use there.

Make sure you have the correct filenames and directory structure as described below.

Additionally add the files or directories you created to skyline_custom_logos, a list of files or directories that will be copied inside the container.

Logos/images that can be overwritten

Logo/image

Path in {{ node_custom_config }}/skyline/logos

Browser Icon

./favicon.ico

Login page left logo

./asset/image/logo.png

Login page right logo

./asset/image/loginRightLogo.png

Logo header logged in

./asset/image/cloud-logo.svg

To replace only the browser icon set

skyline_custom_logos: ["favicon.ico"]

To replace files in asset set

skyline_custom_logos: ["asset"]

To replace all use

skyline_custom_logos: ["asset", "favicon.ico"]

Since the files are overwritten inside the container, you have to remove the container and recreate it if you want to revert to the default logos. Just removing the configuration will not remove the files.

External Swift

If you are running an external Swift compatible object store you can add it to the skyline dashboard. Since Skyline can not use Keystone’s endpoint api, you have to tell it the url of your external service.

You have to set skyline_external_swift and skyline_external_swift_url in your configuration:

skyline_external_swift: "yes"
skyline_external_swift_url: "https://<your-host>/swift"
