Web Interface allows admins to control Spectrum 2 instances and users to register the transports and for example manage rooms they are connected to.
Configuration
The Web Interface is part of Spectrum 2 Manager tool, so it shares the same /etc/spectrum2/spectrum_manager.cfg configuration file. There are following configuration variables available:
| Section | Key | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| service | admin_username | string | Admin username for the Web Interface. | |
| service | admin_password | string | Admin password for the Web Interface. | |
| service | port | int | 8080 | Port on which the Web Interface will be accesible. |
| service | base_location | string | / | Base location (directory) on which the Web interface is served. It must ends up with slash character. If you for example set it to “/spectrum/”, then the Web interface will be served on http://localhost:$port/spectrum/. |
| service | data_dir | string | /var/lib/spectrum2_manager/html | Path to the Web Interface static data. |
| service | cert | string | Web interface certificate in PEM format when TLS should be used. Empty otherwise. | |
| logging | config | string | /etc/spectrum2/manager_logging.cfg | Path to the logging configuration file in the same format as for the Spectrum 2. |
| database | … | … | … | Database to store the Web Interface data. The variables are the same as in the Spectrum 2 config files. |
Starting the Web Interface
For now the only way how to start Web Interface is running it on foreground using:
$ spectrum2_manager server
In the future, we plan to support Spectrum 2 Web Interface as standalone server.
