Menu item for new module
-
Hello Mango masters!
We are implementing [url=http://guac-dev.org/]Guacamole as a Mango module. This provides local SSH and remote desktop access into the Mango's web interface.
We have been reading [url=http://store.infiniteautomation.com/documentation/develop/how-to-write-a-module]this documentation and the process seems pretty straightforward, however, we don't know how to add a menu item for this module.Could you please point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

I can't help (I'm not a mango developer unfortunately), but I am extremely curious about why you are implementing a web-based remote desktop app to control... a web app?

Hello Jeremyh.
We are interested in being able to fully administrate our customer's mango servers. The Guacamole API give us both, SSH and remote desktop control just using an http access, so we want to embedd this as a module only visible for admin users.

You can look at any of the public modules that have menu icons. This one would be good: https://github.com/infiniteautomation/ma-modules-public/tree/master/Watchlist
When we install Mango systems or deploy a MangoES to a customer we use a simple VPN solution which give us secure ssh access and also use webmin http://www.webmin.com/ which are all really easy to set up. Guacamole looks pretty interesting as well so I'll be curious to see how it goes.
Thanks,
Joel.
