Opsdeck

Watch and reach every machine from one deck.

Opsdeck is a desktop console that monitors the status of your hardware and lets you remote into any machine over SSH & VNC — watch and control, all from one place ("the deck"). Built for factory-floor / edge fleets (DCS, IPC, IoT nodes, printers, …), but the data source is swappable to any network.

Features

• 📊 Monitoring — every device rendered as a live UP/DOWN dot on a floor-plan; a monitor server pings each host every 3s and broadcasts status over WebSocket. Multi-plant with auto-slide and an aggregate Overview page.
• ⌨️ Remote SSH — interactive terminal embedded in the app (xterm.js), with copy/paste. No external client.
• 🖥️ Remote VNC — click a machine → its desktop appears inside the app (noVNC), tunneled over SSH. Supports headless (SSH-only) and external-viewer (e.g. RealVNC) machines too.

How it works

[ Devices ]  ◄── ping every 3s ──  [ Monitor server (Node + WebSocket) ]
                                              │  broadcast UP/DOWN
                                              ▼
                                     [ Opsdeck (Electron) ]
                                     floor-plan + status dots
                                     click a machine → SSH / VNC (over SSH tunnel)

Installation

From a release: download the installer for your OS and run it (Windows → Opsdeck-Setup-<version>.exe).

From source:

cd app
npm install
npm start                 # run the app
npm run dist:win          # build a Windows installer (needs Wine on Linux)

Usage

1. Start the monitor server on your network (serverside/).
2. Launch Opsdeck. It checks the network gate, then shows the floor-plan; pages auto-slide between plants.
3. Click a machine → a detail modal opens → VNC or SSH Terminal.
4. Manage per-machine credentials from the header menu → Kelola Remote, or edit app/remotes.json.

Configuration (swap the data source)

Opsdeck ships pointed at one network; repoint it by editing three places:

What	Where
Monitored hosts (ping list)	serverside/ — the devices list
Plants & device boxes	app/index.html — each <section class="page" data-server="IP" data-port="PORT"> is a plant; each .machine-box id = device name sanitized ([^a-zA-Z0-9]→_). Box positions are drag-editable via Edit Layout (saved to layout.json).
Remote hosts & credentials	app/remotes.json (gitignored) or the in-app Kelola Remote UI
Network / VPN gate	app/vpn-check.js — subnets & reachability probes
