Setting up Salt Halite is not straightforward process. Its a WebUI for Salt master where you can easily run commands and manage minions. I assume that you have  a master node setup with couple of minion(atleast one).
Let’s start with the steps to accomplish it:
Starting with Build Process –
- cd /var/www
- git clone https://github.com/saltstack/halite
- cd halite/halite
- ./genindex.py -C
Installation salt-api:
   5. yum install salt-api
In the end add the master configuration file
Add the following content at the end of the file /etc/salt/master as shown:
host: 0.0.0.0
port: 8080
debug: true
disable_ssl: True
static: /var/www/halite/halite
app: /var/www/halite/halite/index.htmlexternal_auth:
pam:
salt:
– .*
– ‘@runner’
– ‘@wheel’
That I set here disable_ssl external_auth pam authentication using user login, follow the steps after the operation is completed:
6. /etc/init.d/salt-master restart
Adding a user
7 . #useradd salt
8.#echo salt | passwd –stdin salt
After the establishment of user testing
9. #salt -a pam \* test.ping
Enter the user name and password as seen minion return information indicates that the authentication is successful landing
Start salt-api
     10. #salt-api -d
     11#cd /var/www/halite/halite
     12.#python server_bottle.py -d -C -l debug -s cherrypy
Then open http: // ip: 8080 / app, through salt / salt can login.
See you in further post..
