ArangoDB's Web-Interface

Accessing the Web-Interface

The web interfaced can be access as

http://localhost:8529

assuming you are using the standard port and no user routings. If you have any application installed, the home page might point to that application instead. In this case use

http://localhost:8529/_admin/html/index.html

Collections Tab

The collection tabs shows an overview about the loaded and unloaded collections of the database.

You can load, unloaded, delete, or inspect the collections. Please note that you should not delete or change system collections, i. e., collections starting with an underscore.

If you click on the magnifying glass, you will get a list of all documents in the collection.

Using the pencil you can edit the document.

Query Tab

The query tabs allows you to execute AQL queries.

Type in a query and execute it.

The shell tabs give you access to a JavaScript shell connection to the database server.

Use the OK button or return to execute a command.

Logs Tab

You can browse the log files.

@htmlonly @endhtmlonly @latexonly\includegraphics[width=12cm]{images/fe-logs.png}@endlatexonly

Note that the server only keeps a limited number of log entries. For real log analyses write the logs to disk using syslog or a similar mechanism.

Statistics Tab

Use the statistics tab to display information about the server.

@htmlonly @endhtmlonly @latexonly\includegraphics[width=12cm]{images/fe-statistics.png}@endlatexonly

Initially no statistics will be display. You must use the add button to configure what type of information should be displayed.
