OpsNotebook is a generic, extensible Operations Platform designed to manage connections to remote systems and execute "Notebooks" (interactive workflows) against them.
- Technology Agnostic: Can connect to ElasticSearch, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kubernetes, or any system reachable via a CLI command.
- External Driver Protocol: Delegates connection logic (auth, tunnels, port-forwarding) to external drivers (Python, Bash, etc.).
- Interactive Notebooks: React-based UI for executing sequential operations, visualizing results, and piping data between steps.
- Flexible Grouping: Group targets arbitrarily (e.g., "Primary/Replica", "Prod/Staging/Dev", "Blue/Green") using tags. No longer limited to pairs.
- Label-Based Filtering: Use Kubernetes-style label selectors to filter which targets appear in specific notebooks.
- Notebook-Specific Target Colors: Customize target colors per notebook for better visual organization.
- Configurable Visuals: Assign distinct colors to targets to prevent "wrong cluster" mistakes.
- Direct Tunnel Access: Generates cURL commands that bypass the proxy for direct terminal access.
- Backend (Go): A lightweight process manager. It spawns drivers, talks to them over a local HTTP control plane, and acts as an HTTP proxy.
- Frontend (React): A notebook interface. It groups targets based on tags and sends requests to the backend proxy.
- Drivers (Python/Bash): The "brains" of the connection. They handle
kubectl port-forward, SSH tunnels, or database auth.
- Go 1.22+
- Node.js 18+
- Python 3 (for the default ES driver)
