Another alpha of VirtKick - a simple VPS panel
Hey guys, happy to announce another alpha, give it a try: https://alpha.virtkick.io/
The previous version wasn't reliable enough - I just didn't expect that amount of traffic. ;-) This version addresses performance problems and adds a responsive interface. Hope you like it.
For those who haven't yet heard of VirtKick, just have a look https://www.virtkick.io/. In a nut-shell: free, open source, with features for VPS providers. Beta testers needed, sign up on the website.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll check in MailChimp reports whether e-mail open rate for Gmail is significantly lower than for other providers.
Hey! This is very nice, and very good work to you! Please make the console in a new browser though, that'll be pretty sweet.
For the console:
This will be even better! Wojtek is improving this screen. Have a look: https://github.com/virtkick/virtkick-prototype/pull/4
Good work! :-)
Yeah, I know. The first a noVNC issue, but I didn't yet have a time to debug their code. (It's their bug as this happens on their demo website too; and it doesn't on some older version)
Regarding the latter, I'll do that soon. We planned that Rush (yep, we've got a new team member) will rewrite the machine view in AngularJS in a month, but this is kinda small thing so l'll get it done real quick.
Sounds good, looks pretty neat so far
wow love it more and more
Thanks. :-)
FYI, the danger zone doesn't make me feels "danger"...
Looks great!
Me either. Have a look how it's going to look like soon. https://github.com/virtkick/virtkick-prototype/pull/3
Thanks!
looks very good and promising
I have been supporting virtkick, as I really feel we need a SolusVM competitor, in this case, OpenSource.
The design is beautiful and Nowaker ensures that we're able to contribute towards the project.
Both suggesting and uploading code, if you've something usefull.
I'm in their IRC channel and I barely notice Nowaker sleeping. I'm proud of this panel and will keep supporting it, doing my best.
I have been quite busy, otherwise, I'd have been posting about virtkick. You barely see such panels, efficient, fast and secure. Updated every damn day. I have a demo server which has been running flawless.
I'm looking forward to see a great product coming! Thank you for being working so much on it, Nowaker!
Well, that's true. ;-)
Thanks for your support, MrGeneral.
Wao! Looks very good!... +1 !
@Nowaker
There is a problem if you click create VPS several times it will display a error about the virtual machine already existing. and then it will allow you to change the letter and do it again resulting in someone very easily being able to Abuse it.
Not sure if it is a major issue or not just thought I would let you know.
Oh, and yet the machine is already queued for creation! Good catch. I have to disable the create button after it's clicked so the form isn't submitted twice. Thanks!
(Don't understand the part about abuse though - there's nothing to abuse here )
Wouldn't someone creating 100's of VPS in a short amount of time cause problems?
OK, I can hear you now. Well, it should survive. But if somebody wants to DoS it, they will find a way to do it. I'm happy it wasn't abused so far.
Since you are utilizing KVM for VirtKick is there any future plan to Implement cgroups with per package defaults for the cgroup configurations we asked SolusVM for something similar in the past but they never got around to it.
Just very simple bits, but yes. Obiously, this will be configurable by the admin only. At this moment you'd just set it in libvirt domain XML template: https://github.com/virtkick/virtkick-webapp/blob/master/app/models/wvm/new_machine.xml.slim
Wojtek finished the console view in the prototype. It will land in 0.3.alpha. :-) https://demo.virtkick.io/machine.html#console
I can't wait to see this.
thanks for sharing, i am already looking up the git repo and maybe try.
You'll find it extremely hard to deploy at this point. There are too many things to do manually, some of which undocumented. We're currently working on it, so 0.3.alpha is user-installable with little effort.
Thanks again - fixed in git, will land in 0.3.alpha. https://github.com/virtkick/virtkick/issues/40
This is really a panel for the modern internet. Everything is there and it looks like it should be there. No clutter. +1
Thanks @Giordano!
