# ๐ Atlas - Network Infrastructure Visualizer (Go-powered)
**Atlas** is a full-stack containerized tool to **scan**, **analyze**, and **visualize** network infrastructure dynamically. Built with Go, FastAPI, NGINX, and a custom React frontend, it provides automated scanning, storage, and rich dashboards for insight into your infrastructure.

## ๐ What It Does
Atlas performs three key functions:
1. **Scans Docker Containers** running on the host to extract:
- IP addresses **(supports multiple IPs per container)**
- MAC addresses **(supports multiple MACs per container)**
- Open ports
- Network names
- OS type (from image metadata)
- **Each network interface is tracked separately**
2. **Scans Local & Neighboring Hosts** on the subnet to:
- Detect reachable devices
- Retrieve OS fingerprints, MACs, and open ports
- Populate a full map of the infrastructure
3. **Visualizes Data in Real-Time**:
- Serves an interactive HTML dashboard via Nginx
- Hosts a FastAPI backend for data access and control
- Uses a React frontend to render dynamic network graphs

## ๐ Deployment (Docker)
Run Atlas with optional port configuration:
```bash
docker run -d \
--name atlas \
--network=host \
--cap-add=NET_RAW \
--cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-e ATLAS_UI_PORT='8884' \
-e ATLAS_API_PORT='8885' \
-e ATLAS_ADMIN_USER='admin' \
-e ATLAS_ADMIN_PASSWORD='change-me' \
-e ATLAS_AUTH_TTL_SECONDS='86400'
-e FASTSCAN_INTERVAL='3600' \
-e DOCKERSCAN_INTERVAL='3600' \
-e DEEPSCAN_INTERVAL='7200' \
-e SCAN_SUBNETS="192.168.1.0/24,10.0.0.0/24" \
keinstien/atlas:{tag}
```
**Environment Variables:**
- `ATLAS_UI_PORT` โ Sets the port for the Atlas UI (Nginx). Default: `8888`.
- `ATLAS_API_PORT` โ Sets the port for the FastAPI backend. Default: `8889`.
- `ATLAS_ADMIN_USER` โ Admin username for login (single user). Default: `admin`.
- `ATLAS_ADMIN_PASSWORD` โ Enables UI/API authentication when set (required password for login). Default: `disabled`.
- `ATLAS_AUTH_TTL_SECONDS` โ Session lifetime in seconds. Default: `86400` (24h).
- `FASTSCAN_INTERVAL` โ Interval in seconds between fast scans. Default: `3600` (1 hour).
- `DOCKERSCAN_INTERVAL` โ Interval in seconds between Docker scans. Default: `3600` (1 hour).
- `DEEPSCAN_INTERVAL` โ Interval in seconds between deep scans. Default: `7200` (2 hours).
- `SCAN_SUBNETS` โ Comma-separated list of subnets to scan (e.g., "192.168.1.0/24,10.0.0.0/24"). If not set, Atlas will auto-detect the local subnet. This allows scanning multiple networks including LAN and remote servers.
If not set, defaults are used (UI: `8888`, API: `8889`, scan intervals as shown above).
Example endpoints:
- UI: `http://localhost:ATLAS_UI_PORT`
- API (from exposed API port): `http://localhost:ATLAS_API_PORT/api/docs`
- API (based on nginx conf): `http://localhost:ATLAS_UI_PORT/api/docs`
### ๐ Authentication
Atlas authentication is optional and disabled by default.
- **Enable auth:** set `ATLAS_ADMIN_PASSWORD` (and optionally `ATLAS_ADMIN_USER`).
- **UI behavior:** when auth is enabled, the UI shows a login gate before any data is rendered.
- **API behavior:** when auth is enabled, core endpoints (hosts, external, scripts, logs, scheduler, containers) require a token.
Relevant auth endpoints:
- `GET /api/auth/enabled` โ returns whether auth is enabled
- `POST /api/auth/login` โ returns a bearer token
- `GET /api/auth/me` โ validates current token
- `POST /api/auth/logout` โ invalidates the current token
**Scan Scheduling:**
Atlas automatically runs scans at the configured intervals. You can:
- Set initial intervals via environment variables (see above)
- Change intervals dynamically through the Scripts Panel in the UI
- Manually trigger scans via the UI or API at any time
The scheduler starts automatically when the container starts and runs scans in the background.

## โ๏ธ How it Works
### ๐น Backend Architecture
- **Go CLI (`atlas`)**
- Built using Go 1.22
- Handles:
- `initdb`: Creates SQLite DB with required schema
- `fastscan`: Fast host scan using ARP/Nmap
- `dockerscan`: Gathers Docker container info from `docker inspect`
- `deepscan`: Enriches data with port scans, OS info, etc.
- **FastAPI Backend**
- Runs on `port 8889`
- Serves:
- `/api/hosts` โ all discovered hosts (regular + Docker)
- `/api/external` โ external IP and metadata
- **NGINX**
- Serves frontend (React static build) on `port 8888`
- Proxies API requests (`/api/`) to FastAPI (`localhost:8889`)

## ๐งช React Frontend (Dev Instructions)
This is a new React-based UI.
### ๐ ๏ธ Setup and Build
```bash
cd /swarm/data/atlas/react-ui
npm install
npm run build
```
The built output will be in:
```
/swarm/data/atlas/react-ui/dist/
```
For development CI/CD (for UI and backend and build a new docker version):
```bash
/swarm/github-repos/atlas/deploy.sh
```
## ๐ CI/CD: Build and Publish a New Atlas Docker Image
To deploy a new version and upload it to Docker Hub, use the provided CI/CD script:
1. Build and publish a new image:
```bash
/swarm/github-repos/atlas/deploy.sh
```
- The script will prompt you for a version tag (e.g. `v3.2`).
- It will build the React frontend, copy to NGINX, build the Docker image, and push **both** `keinstien/atlas:$VERSION` and `keinstien/atlas:latest` to Docker Hub.
2. Why push both tags?
- **Version tag:** Allows you to pin deployments to a specific release (e.g. `keinstien/atlas:v3.2`).
- **Latest tag:** Users can always pull the most recent stable build via `docker pull keinstien/atlas:latest`.
3. The script will also redeploy the running container with the new version.
**Example output:**
```shell
๐ Tagging Docker image as latest
๐ค Pushing Docker image to Docker Hub...
โ
Deployment complete for version: v3.2
```
> **Note:** Make sure you are logged in to Docker Hub (`docker login`) before running the script.

## ๐ URLs
- **Swagger API docs:**
- `๐ http://localhost:8888/api/docs` (Host Data API endpoint)
- **Frontend UI:**
- `๐ฅ๏ธ UI http://localhost:8888/` (main dashboard)
- `๐ http://localhost:8888/hosts.html` (Hosts Table)
- `๐งช http://localhost:8888/visuals/vis.js_node_legends.html` (legacy test UI)
> Default exposed port is: `8888`
### ๐ก Scheduler API Endpoints
New scheduler management endpoints:
- `GET /api/scheduler/intervals` - Get current scan intervals for all scan types
- `PUT /api/scheduler/intervals/{scan_type}` - Update interval for a specific scan type (fastscan, dockerscan, or deepscan)
- `GET /api/scheduler/status` - Get scheduler status and current intervals
Example:
```bash
# Get current intervals
curl http://localhost:8888/api/scheduler/intervals
# Update fastscan interval to 30 minutes (1800 seconds)
curl -X PUT http://localhost:8888/api/scheduler/intervals/fastscan \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"interval": 1800}'
# Check scheduler status
curl http://localhost:8888/api/scheduler/status
```

## ๐ Dev Tips
To edit Go logic:
- Main binary: `internal/scan/`
- Commands exposed via: `main.go`
To edit API:
- Python FastAPI app: `scripts/app.py`
To edit UI:
- Modify React app under `/react-ui`
- Rebuild and copy static files to `/html`
- _automated deplolyment and publish to dockerhub using the script deploy.sh_
---
## โ๏ธ Automation Notes
- Atlas runs automatically on container start.
- All Go scan tasks run sequentially:
- `initdb โ fastscan โ deepscan โ dockerscan`
- Scheduled scans are run every 30 minutes via Go timers.
- No cron dependency required inside the container.
- Scans can also be manually triggered via the UI using API post request.
