React + Vite metadata browser/editor that ships inside the meta-core container. Walks the UUID-rooted Redis keyspace, edits leaf values, imports/exports snapshots, and consults the live schema indexer.

What it talks to

The editor is a pure SPA — it has no server of its own. It calls the meta-core HTTP API directly under three prefixes (see src/api/):

/api/kv/* — slash-tree KV browser (info, tree, search, find, value, key/{key...}). This is the UUID-exposing surface — keys look like file:<uuid>/<property> and cid:<algo>:<value>.
/api/schema — live per-field schema (type hints, value breakdowns), produced by meta-core's schema indexer that consumes meta:events.
/api/snapshot/* — snapshot export / import / wipe.

In production the editor is served by meta-core's nginx (the Vite build output is copied into the image at the same path) under https://metacore-dev.localhost:8083/editor/. The Vite base is set to /editor/ accordingly.

Local development

Prerequisites: Node 21.6.2+, pnpm pinned in the root package.json.

cd packages/meta-core/editor
pnpm install
pnpm dev          # vite dev server on http://localhost:5173

The Vite dev server proxies /api/* to http://localhost:3000 (see vite.config.ts). For local development against a running meta-core container, change that target to wherever meta-core is reachable on your host — e.g. http://localhost:18083 for the dev compose's direct-backend port.

No root-level start:editor or build:editor scripts exist; run pnpm commands from this directory.

Build

pnpm build        # tsc -b && vite build → dist/

The container build copies dist/ into the nginx web root so the editor is served at /editor/.
