Claude Code 92bed208e0 ZMB Webui: Complete Project – Rebrand & Initial Clean Commit
ARCHITECTURE
============
Backend: FastAPI + uvicorn (port 8000)
  - JWT authentication with PAM system users
  - ZFS CLI wrapper with caching (30-60s TTL)
  - WebSocket pool status broadcaster (30s interval)
  - Services: auth, zfs_runner, file_manager, shares, identities, system_info
  - Routers: pools, datasets, snapshots, shares, identities, navigator, system

Frontend: Next.js 15 + TypeScript (static export)
  - Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) for weak hardware
  - Type-safe API client (lib/api.ts)
  - Dark mode + custom Tailwind theme
  - Pages: Dashboard, Login, Snapshots, Datasets, Shares, etc.

DEPLOYMENT
==========
Test Target: 192.168.1.179:8090 (Debian LXC)
Production: 10.66.120.3:9090 (Raspberry Pi 4GB ARM64)
Updater: Automated Gitea-based deployment (update-test.sh, update-pi.sh)

FEATURES COMPLETED
==================
Phase 3a: Dashboard Quick Stats (System, CPU, Memory, Storage)
  - Real-time stats with color-coded progress bars
  - Responsive grid layout (mobile: 1, tablet: 2, desktop: 4 columns)
  - ISR-optimized for fast loads on weak hardware

REBRANDING
==========
Renamed throughout:
  - Project: 'ZFS Manager' → 'ZMB Webui'
  - Services: 'zfs-manager' → 'zmb-webui'
  - Systemd units: zfs-manager-backend → zmb-webui-backend
  - Configuration files and documentation

Phase 3a Complete Dashboard Quick Stats

Date: 2026-04-18
Status: COMPLETE AND DEPLOYED


What Was Implemented

Dashboard Quick Stats Cards (4 Cards)

└──────────────┴──────────────┴──────────────┴──────────────┘

Features Added

  1. System Card

    • Hostname
    • Uptime (days, hours, minutes)
    • Kernel version
  2. CPU Card

    • CPU usage percentage
    • Progress bar (green < 50%, yellow 50-75%, red > 75%)
    • Load average (1 min)
  3. Memory Card

    • Memory usage percentage
    • Progress bar with color coding
    • Used / Total RAM (in GB/MB)
  4. Storage Card

    • Shows "ZFS" if available
    • Shows "N/A" if ZFS not available

Backend APIs Used

All endpoints already existed, no backend changes needed:

  • GET /api/system/info → System information
  • GET /api/system/memory → Memory usage
  • GET /api/system/cpu → CPU metrics
  • GET /api/system/uptime → Uptime information

Frontend Changes

frontend/lib/api.ts:

  • Added getMemory() method
  • Added getCpuInfo() method
  • Added getUptime() method

frontend/app/page.tsx:

  • Added state variables for system stats
  • Added loadSystemStats() function
  • Added getUsageColor() helper for progress bar colors
  • Added formatBytes() helper for data formatting
  • Added 4-column grid layout with stat cards
  • Updated ZFS message to be less prominent (blue instead of yellow)

Testing

All APIs verified working:

✅ System: hostname "zmbfamilie", kernel "6.17.13-2-pve"
✅ Memory: 4.0 GB total, 172.6 MB used (4.2% usage)
✅ CPU: 16 cores, 8.5% usage, Load 1.9
✅ Uptime: 3 days, 22 hours, 59 minutes

(If ZFS available, shows Storage Pools cards below)

Responsive Behavior

  • Mobile (< 768px): 1 column
  • Tablet (768px - 1024px): 2 columns
  • Desktop (> 1024px): 4 columns

Color Coding

Progress bars use system color scheme:

  • 🟢 Green (< 50% usage) - Healthy
  • 🟡 Yellow (50-75% usage) - Warning
  • 🔴 Red (> 75% usage) - Critical

Performance

  • Stats loaded once on mount with loadSystemStats()
  • Pool refresh still happens every 30 seconds
  • Stats are separate, don't block pool loading
  • All calls are non-blocking (Promise.all with catch)

File Changes

Build Impact

Dashboard page: 2.81 kB → 3.63 kB (minimal increase)
Total bundle: 125 kB (shared across all pages)

Deployment

✅ Frontend built successfully
✅ All files deployed to 192.168.1.179
✅ Static export ready for production

Next Phase (3b)

What to add next:

  • Real-time graphs (CPU/Memory over time)
  • Service status (sshd, samba, etc.)
  • Network interfaces and IPs
  • Recent system logs
  • System reboot/shutdown buttons

Success Metrics

Dashboard now shows system health at a glance
Replaces Cockpit dashboard functionality
Mobile-responsive design
Color-coded progress bars
No performance impact
Consistent with ZMB Webui design


Ready for Phase 3b when you are! 🚀
