APISIX Admin Panel

Unofficial web UI for managing Apache APISIX. Even if there is already the APISIX dashboard project, this project aims to be an alternative solution.

Introduction

• Lightweight: It should be fast, low in memory (currently ~5mb), and small in size (currently ~25mb)
• Powerful: It should support more features than the official dashboard project
• Secure: It should be secure by default, keeping the API key only in the server

To achieve this the tech stack uses Rust in the backend and in the frontend (via WebAssembly). There is also some code using JavaScript for the frontend UI which is built into static files.

It supports both Standalone deployments via updating the config file, and Traditional deployments via API requests.

Try it out

You can run it locally with:

docker run \
  --rm -it \
  --net host \
  -e PORT=3000 \
  --name apisix-admin-panel \
  igncp/apisix-admin-panel:latest

And then access: http://localhost:3000

You can pass a custom APISIX_ADMIN_KEY env variable to interact with your APISIX instance.

You can find information in the Docker Hub page.
