Jonathan A. Sternberg 2fe48d6781 Rename zap import back to github.com/uber-go/zap
They rebased a revision we were previously relying upon that allowed us
to use the vanity name so we are reverting back to an older version with
the old import path.

InfluxDB Admin Interface

This is the built-in admin interface that ships with InfluxDB. The service is intended to have little overhead and minimal preprocessing steps.

How it works

Static assets, located in the assets directory, are embedded in the influxd binary and served from memory using a simple fileserver.

The admin UI itself uses React for the user interface to interact directly with the InfluxDB API, usually running on port 8086.

Building

The only step required to bundle the admin UI with InfluxDB is to create a compressed file system using statik as follows:

go get github.com/rakyll/statik  # make sure $GOPATH/bin is listed in your PATH
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/influxdata/influxdb
go generate github.com/influxdata/influxdb/services/admin

The go generate ./... command will run statik to generate the statik/statik.go file. The generated go file will embed the admin interface assets into the InfluxDB binary.

This step should be run before submitting any pull requests which include modifications to admin interface assets.
