Kube File Manager

A desktop file manager application built with Neutralino.js that allows you to browse local filesystems and Kubernetes pod filesystems, with the ability to copy files between them.

Note: This project is a prototype and was generated using AI. It is intended for demonstration and experimentation purposes.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v14 or higher)
• npm or yarn
• kubectl or minikube (for Kubernetes functionality)

Installation

1. Install dependencies:

npm install

2. Install Neutralino CLI globally (optional, but recommended):

npm install -g @neutralinojs/neu

Running the Application

Run the application in development mode:

npm start

Or if you have the CLI installed globally:

neu run

Building the Application

Build the application for your platform:

npm run build

Or:

neu build

Features

• Dual Panel Interface: Browse local filesystem and Kubernetes pods side-by-side
• Pod Filesystem Access: Navigate and browse files inside Kubernetes pods
• File Copying: Copy files between local filesystem and pods
• Modern UI: Clean, responsive interface with custom window controls
• Keyboard Navigation: Use Backspace to navigate up directories
• Breadcrumb Navigation: Click on path segments to navigate

Architecture

The application uses a modular ES6 architecture with clear separation of concerns:

• Window Management: Handles window controls and resizing
• Filesystem Operations: Manages local and pod filesystem access
• Kubernetes Integration: Handles kubectl operations and pod management
• UI Components: Reusable UI rendering and interaction components
• State Management: Centralized application state with change notifications
• Utilities: Reusable helper functions
