How is cbgb configured?

How do I create a bucket?

[tleyden]

I think I may know one answer: use the same REST api call as you would with Couchbase Server?

The output states that there is web ui available, but when I try to go to http://HOST:8091, I get:

cbgb is missing its UI

cbgb was not given a usable UI and could not fetch one from the internet. The REST API will continue to work, but no admin UI will be available to you until you fix whatever got you here.

For more info, check your logs and stuff.

Same as #4. Since hosted download isn't working, point it to static folder in git repo. Should be command line arg to configure the path.

Ok thanks, that gives me enough to go on in order to dig into this

Yep, what @mschoch said. For example, I used...

$ pwd
/Users/steveyen/go/src/github.com/couchbaselabs/cbgb
$ ls ./static/
angular.min.js app.css app.html app.js bootstrap cbgb.ico d3 lodash.min.js partials
$ ./cbgb -static-path=./static

Can buckets be added via rest api? Does couchbase-cli work?

[mschoch]

I think this chunk of code shows how to create a bucket with the REST api:

cbgb/static/app.js

Lines 165 to 181 in 53841e4

	$http({
	method: 'POST',
	url: '/_api/buckets',
	data: 'name=' + encodeURIComponent(bucketName) +
	'&password=' + encodeURIComponent($scope.bucketPassword) +
	'&quotaBytes=' + encodeURIComponent($scope.bucketQuotaBytes) +
	'&memoryOnly=' + encodeURIComponent($scope.bucketMemoryOnly),
	headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}
	}).
	success(function(data) {
	$scope.bucketCreateResult = "created bucket: " + bucketName;
	retrieveBucketNames();
	}).
	error(function(data) {
	$scope.bucketCreateResult =
	"error creating bucket: " + bucketName + "; error: " + data;
	});
