This plugin assumes that the 'po' directory is located at `$SRCDIR/po` or `./po` if `$SRCDIR` is unset. That conflicts with our desire to be able to run `build.js` from other directories and is also a little bit "evil" in terms of hardcoding information about project layout. Add an optional `podir` option to the plugin which should be set to the `po/` path. Set it from `build.js` for Cockpit itself. For other users of the plugin, we preserve the fallback of using `$SRCDIR/po` or `./po` so that we don't break them on the next cockpitlib upgrade. The expectation is that everyone will migrate to providing the `podir` option, however. |

A sysadmin login session in a web browser
What is Cockpit?
Cockpit is an interactive server admin interface. It is easy to use and very lightweight. Cockpit interacts directly with the operating system from a real Linux session in a browser.
Cockpit makes Linux discoverable, allowing sysadmins to easily perform tasks such as starting containers, storage administration, network configuration, inspecting logs and so on.
Jumping between the terminal and the web tool is no problem. A service started via Cockpit can be stopped via the terminal. Likewise, if an error occurs in the terminal, it can be seen in the Cockpit journal interface.
You can also easily add other machines that have Cockpit installed and are accessible via SSH and jump between these hosts.
Installation
Note
An installation guide can be found at cockpit-project.org/running.html. Some systems may need extra work, read about it in our FAQ
Cockpit is available in numerous Linux distributions and is usually packaged as cockpit.
Flatpak 'Cockpit Client'
We also provide a Flatpak app called Cockpit Client which includes SSH login support to Linux servers.
