Unable to use the Microcks Dev UI remotely

[alexandre-touret]

Describe the bug

Hello,
When I try to use the Quarkus dev ui on github code spaces or remotely, I'm unable to browse the Microcks UI.

I always have a blank page and this error in my browser developer tools network tab:

I already tried to configure the DEV UI CORS exclusion filters through these parameters:

quarkus.http.cors.origins=/.*/
quarkus.dev-ui.cors.enabled=false
quarkus.http.cors=false

I had the same behaviour.

Thanks

Expected behavior

I should normally browse the Microcks UI

Actual behavior

A blank page

How to Reproduce?

Below the different steps to reproduce it:

1. Create a quarkus project with the microcks extension
2. Open Github codespaces
3. Run mvn quarkus;dev
4. Browse the remote Dev UI then the Microcks UI5.

Microcks version or git rev

0.4.0

Install method (docker-compose, helm chart, operator, docker-desktop extension,...)

quarkus

I suspect this is because the Dev UI is using a localhost based link to launch the Microcks UI, but here the Microcks container is not running on your local machine... It might be possible to use the container network alias instead (working on this in #146) but we need a way to know that we're running remotely (and not locally). Not sure how we can do that....

Making some tests on this, and I am not sure we can solve this as the Quarkus Dev UI is not acting as a proxy but just redirects the browser to the link provided by the tile. So to produce a reachable link, we should be aware of the hostname used to reach the Dev UI...

We'd might need to refactor it to a webComponentPage (see https://quarkus.io/guides/dev-ui#advanced-custom-cards)
