dploeger/aliasmanager-client repository overview

⁠Aliasmanager

⁠About the project

The Aliasmanager consists of a Frontend and an API-Server that manages specific attributes in an LDAP server.

When integrated in an MTA (like Postfix), these attributes can be used as aliases for the main E-Mail address.

⁠Introduction

This repository holds the Frontend for the Aliasmanager based on Vuejs⁠.

The API-Server based on Nest⁠ can be found at https://github.com/dploeger/aliasmanager⁠.

The frontend consists of these components:

• A table of aliases in the system with pagination and filtration
• A filter input
• A new alias input

Additionally, modals for logging in and editing aliases are included.

⁠Running the Frontend

The whole project is meant to be run through docker. Please check out the aliasmanager-docker repository⁠ for details.

⁠Development

⁠Event emitter

The frontend uses mitt⁠ injected into the Vue instance for global event handling. For example, when the table filter is set, an event is emitted from the filter component and the alias list component catches it and reloads the aliases.

⁠Internationalization

The i18n of the project was done using vue-i18n⁠. The localization files can be found in src/locales.

⁠Testing

The test suite uses MirageJs⁠ to mock the API-Server and uses Cypress⁠ for tests.
