New Admin Console preview

So the blog post stated there is a new admin console preview but there is no documentation on how to actually test it.

https://www.keycloak.org/2021/12/keycloak-1510-released

I found the repository:
https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-admin-ui

And was able to run it in dev mode just to check it out (looks nice even though not 100% polished yet, but good job :) ).

I even found these docs:
https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-admin-ui/blob/main/keycloak-theme/README.md

I run my keycloak with -Dkeycloak.profile=preview and it doesnt include the new admin ui and the parameter doesnt include the keycloak. prefix anyways.

In the themes directory of the keycloak:15.1.0 docker image i see the keycloak.v2 directory, but it doesnt show up in the admin console dropdown on the realms themes.

Any ideas?

There seems to be no themes.properties file in the admin subdirectory…

You need to pass -Dkeycloak.profile.feature.admin2=enabled at startup. Then set the admin theme to "keycloak.v2" and refresh the browser.

If you find issues, please report them at https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-admin-ui/issues

is there a reason why its not part of the preview profile? and not documented anywhere? :D

Okay so judging by the UI its "Experimental" not "Preview"…
But it seems to work :)

Great that you got it working!

When I try to build the keycloak-theme the maven build fails with "Module "react-monaco-editor" could not be resolved by Snowpack",

see https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-admin-ui/issues/1698

Did you need to do anything else besides:

- git clone $REPO

- npm install

- cd keycloak-themes

- mvn install

?

Cheers,

Thomas
