Monkey365 Offline

I'm working on a full script that enables HTML output from Monkey365 while using the Monkey365Assets. Running into several problems that are likely related to the locked down workstation accessing the Repo for HTML generation. Other outputs work, like CSV.

Is there a way to have the HTML rendering happen to a collection of monkey-reports folders that contain other formats after the fact?

You can enable monkey365 to load all assets locally instead from CDN. https://silverhack.github.io/monkey365/exporting/export-html/. Please note that the first execution will download all assets in zip format

I've been working on setting that up. I'm thinking I need to modify 2 files? The monkey365.config and also the assets config file?
Any issues in running a powerhshell web server like Pode to host the files?

change server port

Start-PodeStaticServer -Address '127.0.0.1' -Port 8877

update Monkey365 config to match

$config = Get-Content $configPath -Raw | ConvertFrom-Json
$config.htmlSettings.assetsRepository = 'http://127.0.0.1:8877'
$config | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 99 | Set-Content -Encoding UTF8 $configPath

Something like that work?

Hi @bradmyers, If I understand correctly, you want to serve local assets (images, css, js, etc..) through your own web server. That feature is not supported yet, as the assetsRepository property was designed to serve static files through UNC path or internal file server.

I think that's a great idea to give support serving local assets via local HTTP/S. In a few days I want to update the codebase with the latest changes, and I believe that this can be sorted with some minimal code refactoring.

I've added a new issue to track this feature. #162

Thanks,

So you can provide a UNC path in the monkey365.config file to use a local UNC path for assets currently?
Is the only change needed in the monkey365.config to the path and to enable assetsPath to localassets?

"htmlSettings": {
"convertPassFindingToGood": true,
"assetsRepository":"//UNCPath/Share$", #DOES THIS WORK?
"localHtmlReport": {
"assetsPath": "localassets",
"enabled": "true" #Change this too?
},
"htmlReportFromCDN": "true" #And this should be true?
},

Nope. You must change the assetspath under localhtmlreport as stated here https://silverhack.github.io/monkey365/exporting/export-html/.

The assetsrepository is pointing to the GitHub repository with the latest HTML assets, and is only used when htmlReportFromCDN is enabled.

In your case, you must change the assetspath to for example assetspath:"//UNCPath/Share" and set the enabled to true.

Please note that all HTML assets must be located under the //UNCPath/Share. If the directory is empty, monkey365 will download a copy of all assets.
