Clarification on dashboard

[bigdvette]

The maintained images do not see to expose the dashboard (index.html). I see it is part of Dockerfile.dev and I believe this is the WebUI that Homeassistant exposes on port 5010. Is the dashboard intended to be available using the image files and if not is there a way to enable it when running matter-server as docker container? I use docker swarm for home-assistant and have been running matter-server in the same vlan as my border routers with no problem but even though the matter-server is deployed in a macvlan as external I can't access the dashboard at 8080, 5010, 80 or any other port. Thanks

It works for me out of the box with the Docker image on 5580.

python-matter-server/Dockerfile

Lines 47 to 50 in 29c049e

	VOLUME ["/data"]
	EXPOSE 5580

Thanks for your response. That is the port for the websocket api exposed to HA. That is working fine. HA has a webui you can use and see the nodes and their properties. I see in git there is a dashboard directory and some build scrips but I’m not sure how to access that dashboard or if it is the same as the webui available through the matter-server add-on.

And have you tried visiting that port in your browser?

LOL - thanks. So I had many times. I just happened to be on the vlan that the matter and thread network runs on and typed in the IP with 5580 and it came up. So seems when I am on different vlan the web interface moves to https by a redirect from nginx and was making it so I would never get to the web page. I am there now and feel a bit stupid, but all good

No worries, it also took me a min to figure out it was actually available!
