Running the Admin Console

Setting up Fabric App

User Store Setup

You need to set up a few users to gain access to the Admin Console. Follow these steps to set up the user store:

Box account setup

For using the Image Gallery component, you need to have a box account (as mentioned in the Prerequisites). In your box account, you need to create a JWT Application. This requires you to sign in to the box developer console. Once the app is created, you need to configure the app and download the generated config.json file.

Please follow the steps mentioned in the Box Documentation to create and configure your JWT Application at Box.

Once you download the config.json file, copy its content. You will use it later to create the appropriate JAR file for Box integration.

Download the java project from the Kony Dev GitHub. You can use this java program and the config.json file to configure the Box Account.

Open the program in Eclipse and follow the given steps:

Once you complete the configuration steps, you can create a JAR file from the java program. You need to upload this JAR file in the Kony Fabric app to link the Box account methods

Now that you downloaded the refreshed JAR file, let us move back to Visualizer and upload the JAR file to Kony Fabric.

Google account setup

The Events app makes use of Google’s Map API to provide the location of the event on a map widget. The map widget requires a map key to be set up in the visualizer settings in order to view the map in an app. Follow these steps to setup a Google account:

Building Visualizer App

Once you complete all the set up, you need to build the app to render the desktop web app on a browser.

Publishing the Visualizer App

Once the app is built, you need to publish the app to Kony Fabric.

Note:
  • You need to wait for 5-7 minutes after you publish the app on Kony Fabric. The server takes some time to deploy the new WAR that contains the desktop version of the app.
  • In case, you open the link before the app is ready, the page shows a Proxy Error message.
