dsui
DATA STACK UI
One lightweight UI for your data stack.
dsui is an open-source, local-first interface for inspecting Trino, Kafka, S3, MinIO, and future data services from one place. It replaces the extra UI container normally added for each service in a development stack.
docker run --rm -p 4192:4192 -v dsui-data:/data \
ghcr.io/northgraindata/dsui:latestOpen http://localhost:4192 and add a service, or mount a declarative dsui.yaml. The complete demo is in examples/data-stack.
docker compose -f examples/data-stack/compose.yaml up --buildA Compose data stack can already include a query engine, broker, object store, database, and stream processor. Running a separate administration UI for each one adds memory, images, ports, and context switching. dsui covers the common developer workflows through one server-side adapter model and one compact interface.
It is not a data platform, orchestrator, observability suite, catalog, SaaS control plane, or replacement for every vendor-specific console.
| Adapter | Workflows | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Trino | Queries, catalogs, schemas, tables | Available |
| Kafka | Topics, messages, offsets, consumer groups | Available |
| S3 | Buckets, objects, metadata, downloads | Available |
| PostgreSQL | Tables, schemas, queries | Planned |
| Flink | Jobs and service information | Planned |
dsui uses Bun, Hono, SQLite, Vite, and a small set of focused dependencies. It does not require PostgreSQL, Redis, an external control plane, or a dsui account. CI records image size, idle memory, cold startup, and frontend bundle size; benchmark values are published only after they are measured.
services:
dsui:
image: ghcr.io/northgraindata/dsui:latest
ports:
- "4192:4192"
volumes:
- ./dsui.yaml:/etc/dsui/dsui.yaml:ro
- dsui-data:/dataConfiguration-managed services are read-only in the UI. ${ENV_NAME} interpolation keeps credentials out of committed YAML, and resolved secrets never reach browser storage.
The core application contains no Trino, Kafka, or S3-specific UI logic. Adapters declare connection fields, health, operations, capabilities, and validated views rendered by dsui. Community adapters can be installed from exact, integrity-pinned npm packages or exact GitHub commits; adapter-supplied browser code is not accepted.
Start with templates/adapter and the Adapter SDK guide. The pre-1.0 API is intentionally experimental until all three built-in adapters have exercised it.
Practical installation, configuration, adapter, CLI, architecture, and security documentation lives at dsui.northgraindata.com/docs.
Read CONTRIBUTING.md. Focused issues and pull requests are welcome, especially adapter implementations, contract tests, accessibility improvements, and measured performance work.
