prometheus/web/ui

The ui package contains static files and templates used in the web UI. For easier distribution they are statically compiled into the Prometheus binary using the go-bindata tool (c.f. Makefile).

During development it is more convenient to always use the files on disk to directly see changes without recompiling. Set the environment variable DEBUG=1 and run make assets for this to work. This will put go-bindata in DEBUG mode where it serves from your local filesystem. This is for development purposes only.

After making changes to any file, run make assets (without the DEBUG=1) before committing to update the generated inline version of the file.
