NAME

plakar-ui — Serve the Plakar web user interface

plakar ui [-addr address] [-cors] [-no-auth] [-no-spawn] [-cert path] [-key path]

The plakar ui command serves the Plakar web user interface. By default, it opens the default web browser.

The options are as follows:

-addr address: Specify the address and port for the UI to listen on separated by a colon, (e.g. localhost:8080). If omitted, plakar ui listens on localhost on a random port.
-cors: Set the ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ HTTP headers to allow the UI to be accessed from any origin.
-no-auth: Disable the authentication token that otherwise is needed to consume the exposed HTTP APIs.
-no-spawn: Do not automatically open the web browser.
-cert path: Path to a full certificate file in PEM format. If both -cert and -key are provided, the server will expect https connections. If one or both are missing, the server will fall back to http.
-key path: Path to a certificate private key file in PEM format.

The plakar-ui utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

Using a custom address and disable automatic browser execution:

$ plakar ui -addr localhost:9090 -no-spawn

Create a https server with a custom certificate:

$ plakar ui -cert fullchain.pem -key privkey.pem
