How can I run the Errsole Web Dashboard as a standalone app, separate from my main app?

1. Disable the Web Dashboard in your main app

In your main app's Errsole configuration, set enableDashboard to false. This ensures that Errsole only collects and stores logs without starting the web dashboard.

errsole.initialize({
  storage: new ErrsoleSQLite('path/to/logs/file.sqlite'),
  appName: 'your-app-name',
  enableDashboard: false
});

2. Run the Web Dashboard as a standalone app

On a separate server or the same server, create a new app and configure Errsole with enableDashboard set to true. Use the same storage configuration as your main app so this standalone app can access the logs generated by your main app. Once set up, you can access the web dashboard from this new app, independent of your main app.

dashboard.js

const errsole = require('errsole');
const ErrsoleSQLite = require('errsole-sqlite');

errsole.initialize({
  storage: new ErrsoleSQLite('path/to/logs/file.sqlite'),
  appName: 'your-app-name',
  enableDashboard: true
});

node dashboard.js

For more details, refer to the Setup documentation.

Thanks. Got it. The ersole-web is just index.mjs with:

import errsole from "errsole";
import ErrsolePostgres from "errsole-postgres";

errsole.initialize({
  storage: new ErrsolePostgres({
    host: "localhost", // Replace with your actual PostgreSQL host
    user: "postgres", // Replace with your actual PostgreSQL user
    password: "postgres", // Replace with your actual PostgreSQL password
    database: "errsole", // Replace with the name of your PostgreSQL database
  }),
});
