Openbmc-test-automation checking service root URL "/"

Openbmc-test-automation checking service root URL "/"

Hello George:

I’m trying to test BMC with test_service_root.robot in openbmc-test-automation.
However there’s a problem that robot tried to check  “/”,  “/redfish”,  “/redfish/v1”  URL in redfish,
but it seems there’s no “/” as a service root node in bmcweb.
Should it exist? Do you have any suggestion about this?

Thanks
Best Regards,
David

The Redfish spec (DSP0266, section "Service Root Request") specifies the 
service root as /redfish/v1.
It also specifies the (in the "Protocol version" section) what GET 
/redfish should return.
It does not specify what "/" should return.
To see supported URIs, see 
https://github.com/openbmc/bmcweb/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt

I understand GET requests for URI "/" to return the web app, if 
BMCWEB_ENABLE_STATIC_HOSTING is enabled and the web app is present. See 
https://github.com/openbmc/bmcweb/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L49
and https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-webui

Yup, the URI "/" is supposed to be the webui.
By default, it is phosphor-webui's login page, but be noted that it
could be in a compressed format.

Yes, it works after I install "phosphor-webui" package in my bmc. 
And the BMCWEB_ENABLE_STATIC_HOSTING compile flag is enable in default in bmcweb.

Then I can get some binary response by running
curl -k https://${bmc}/ --output

and encoding by
curl -k -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip" https://${bmc}/ --output - | gunzip | more

then see the readable page info.
Thank you for the information, it's very helpful.

David
