How to use standalone dashboard with resources

[mguirao]

Hey,
I'm looking for directions and documentation on configuring the Dashboard:ResourceServiceClient:Url endpoint for my standalone dashboard running in Kubernetes.

From the documentation, I'm supposed to fill the configuration with The gRPC endpoint to which the dashboard connects for its data..
How can I make this work ?

Thanks in advance

Somebody needs to build a resource server. There's only one implementation right now and it's the one that works with aspire when you run with the orchestration pieces. The standalone dashboard doesn't have a resource server to talk to. To make it work you have to build a grpc server that implements this contract https://github.com/dotnet/aspire/blob/main/src/Aspire.Hosting/Dashboard/proto/resource_service.proto.

@davidfowl - where would the list of possible commands that the dashboard might send according to the protobuf spec be ? :D Possible that there is some documentation of that too.

@davidfowl sure thing. I'll tend to it ASAP.

the aspire discussions? Lets see if we can get people interested in this! This is great for the ecosystem!

Amazing! If you agree to, I would like to contribute on yours. Mine is just an initial experiment.

That'll be my honor and I'd appreciate your insights.

@davidfowl #6772 is created as per your suggestion. Since this was my first time opening a discussion I rely on your (and others) helpful comments or ideas if you think it needs improvements.
