What

  • Write hello.yaml in an empty folder, since dagu start-all --dags . loads every YAML file in the folder as a workflow.
  • Mention creating the admin account on first launch, and tell script-installer users their background service already runs on port 8080.
  • List the new example-06-retry-on-failure first-launch example.
  • Link the monitoring page from Next steps.

Why

Companion to dagucloud/dagu#3227, which adds the retry example and the first-run onboarding. Merge after it.

Test plan

  • pnpm build passes.

Summary by cubic

Fixes the quickstart's server step so new installs don't load unrelated YAML files as workflows.

  • dagu start-all --dags . treats every YAML file in the folder as a workflow, so the guide now has you save hello.yaml in an empty folder.
  • Tells you to create the admin account on first launch unless the installer wizard already created one, and tells script-installer users their background service already runs on port 8080.
  • Lists the new example-06-retry-on-failure example and links the monitoring page from Next steps.

Written for commit 48f66d1. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Clarified where to save the first workflow and how to load YAML files from the current folder.
    • Updated first-launch guidance for creating an admin account, accessing the background service, and exploring six example workflows, including a retry scenario.
    • Added a Monitoring link to the next steps.

Starting the server with --dags . loads every YAML file in the folder
as a workflow, so a project folder with docker-compose.yml or other
YAML shows broken workflows. The quickstart now writes hello.yaml in
an empty folder, mentions the admin account created on first launch,
and tells script-installer users that their background service is
already running.

It also lists the new retry example and links the monitoring page
from Next steps.

The guide now specifies saving hello.yaml in an empty folder. It updates the first-launch admin account, --dags ., installer-started service, and example workflow instructions. It also adds a Monitoring link to Next steps.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 03534

Script-installed users may be told to create an admin account that already exists, causing confusion during first launch. Clarify the instruction before merging; the remaining checked claims match their implementations.

Comment thread getting-started/quickstart.md Resolved
The script installer wizard can create the first admin account, so
telling every reader to create one on first launch was wrong for
script installs.
