Enroll hosts docs improvements (#14862)
Summary:
- Enroll hosts page refinement
- Since page was too long and had a lot of content I did following:
    - Moved most important sections to the top
- Did some changes to make things more consistent, when possible having
UI and CLI sections with steps (ordered list)
- Moved `Add hosts with plain osquery` to contributor docs, since I
learned this approach is used just by couple of Fleet customers, and we
don't advise this as best practice anymore
- Added overview (table of contents) on the top to make easier to
navigate through the page
- Moved some technical (advanced) topics into separate section on the
bottom of the page

Fleetd Chrome Extension

Packaging the extension

Generate a .pem file to be the key for the chrome extension.

(In parent dir) Run the following command to generate an extension.

/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --pack-extension=./fleetd-chrome --pack-extension-key=path/to/chrome.pem

Adding Chrome to Fleet

To learn how to package and add hosts to Fleet, visit: https://fleetdm.com/docs/using-fleet/enroll-hosts#enroll-chromebooks.

Debugging

Service worker

View service worker logs in chrome://serviceworker-internals/?devtools (in production), or in chrome://extensions (only during development).

Manual Enroll

Steps 1 and 2 can be performed on your workstation. Step 3 and 4 are to be executed on the target Chromebook.

  1. Create your .env file:

IMPORTANT: The address in FLEET_URL must have a valid TLS certificate.

echo 'FLEET_URL="https://your-fleet-server.example.com"' >> .env
echo 'FLEET_ENROLL_SECRET="<your enroll secret>"' >> .env

To test with your local Fleet server, you can use ngrok:

ngrok http https://localhost:8080
  1. Build the "unpacked extension":
npm install && npm run build

The above command will generate an unpacked extension in ./dist.

  1. Send the ./dist folder to the target Chromebook.

  2. In the target Chromebook, go to chrome://settings, toggle Developer mode and click on Load unpacked and select the dist folder.
