🖥️ Meerschaum Web Console

You can use Meerschaum from its web interface. From within a mrsm shell, type to commands below to see how:

1. Start the Web API server.

   start api
   

   Change the port number

   To change the port of the API server, add the flag --port or -p:

   start api --port 8001
   

2. Visit port 8000 in a web browser (e.g. http://localhost:8000) and create an account or login to your instance.

   Register from the command-line

   You can create users on your instance with the register user command.

   register user myuser
   

   

3. On the left side of the dashboard are the available commands, like in the mrsm shell.

   

   Adding custom commands

   You can add your own actions with Meerschaum plugins.

   

   Also like the mrsm shell, the web console lets you control pipes from several instances (note the instances drop-down on the top right).
