mosaic ui ​

Starts the web interface: search, filter, download and export from a browser page.

Usage ​

bash
mosaic ui                     # http://127.0.0.1:5555, opened in your browser
mosaic ui --port 8080
mosaic ui --host 0.0.0.0      # reachable from other machines on your network
mosaic ui --no-browser        # start the server only

Behaviour ​

Needs the ui extra (Flask and Waitress). The server is Waitress; --debug runs Flask's development server with reloading instead. The web interface uses the same config and cache as the command line.

With --host 0.0.0.0 anyone who can reach the port can use the interface, and your saved keys and sessions with it: there is no login.
