ELERA Admin Lite
Lightweight ELERA administration in a Docker image.
ELERA Admin Lite is a focused administration interface for the Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions ELERA Platform. It gives support teams read-only visibility into nodes, inherited configuration, catalogs, price lists, item coverage, promotions, and receipt templates.
The app ships as a pre-compiled GraalVM native executable in a minimal Docker container, connects to an existing ELERA deployment, and requires no additional infrastructure beyond Docker.
What Admin Lite helps teams inspect
The application sits beside an ELERA environment and gives operators a practical way to browse the data that usually matters during support, validation, and migration work.
Nodes and configuration
Browse the enterprise node hierarchy, filter to store-like nodes, open node details, and inspect inherited versus locally overridden configuration values.
- Full node hierarchy
- Configuration source visibility
- Raw node JSON access
Catalogs, price lists, and items
Review catalog hierarchy, catalog groups, price list coverage, and item details across price lists.
- Catalog and group browsing
- Price list status and item counts
- Cross-price-list SKU search
Receipts and promotions
Open a node-aware receipt template workspace and review promotion rules with plain-language explainers.
- FreeMarker receipt preview
- Template dependency visibility
- Promotion status and eligible item views
Operational views
These screens show the core Admin Lite workflow: start from the home shell, browse enterprise nodes, inspect configuration, and drill into item and promotion data.
Receipt and promotion detail
Admin Lite includes a node-aware receipt studio and promotion integration on item detail pages for faster validation of store-facing behavior.
Docker quick start
Point Admin Lite at your ELERA Platform API or Nginx reverse proxy through ELERA_BASE_URL, then open the app on port 8090.
Run the image
docker pull redlistsolutions/elera-admin-lite:latest
docker run -d \
--name elera-admin-lite \
-p 8090:8090 \
-e ELERA_BASE_URL=http://your-elera-host:8080 \
redlistsolutions/elera-admin-lite:latest
Deployment notes
The container can connect to ELERA on the same Docker host, a local network, a remote endpoint, or the same Docker network as an ELERA development stack.
- Docker 20.10 or later
- Existing ELERA Platform endpoint
- Login uses ELERA Platform credentials
Security
Designed for controlled support access.
Admin Lite uses a server-side session model and a server-configured ELERA endpoint. The Docker Hub distribution is a GraalVM native binary in a minimal runtime image.
- Veracode static analysis score: 100/100
- Server-side communication with the ELERA API
- Opaque session cookie stored in the browser
- CSRF protection on state-changing endpoints
- Non-root container user in the runtime image
