kcp ui

kcp ui¶

Start the UI

Synopsis¶

Starts the kcp UI — a local web app for visualising and analysing kcp-state.json (clusters, costs, metrics, TCO) and for generating migration assets via a guided wizard.

Runs entirely locally on http://localhost:<port> (default 5556); no data leaves your machine.

By default the server binds to localhost and is reachable only from this machine. To reach it from another host or from inside a container, bind a wider interface with --host 0.0.0.0. The UI has no authentication, so only do this intentionally and restrict exposure — for example publish the container port on loopback only: docker run -p 127.0.0.1:5556:5556 ... kcp ui --host 0.0.0.0.

kcp ui [flags]

Examples¶

  # Default port (5556), localhost only
  kcp ui

  # Custom port
  kcp ui --port 8080

  # Bind all interfaces so the UI is reachable from outside (e.g. a container).
  # No auth — restrict exposure (e.g. Docker: -p 127.0.0.1:5556:5556).
  kcp ui --host 0.0.0.0

  # Pre-load a state file on launch
  kcp ui --state-file kcp-state.json

Options¶

  -h, --help                help for ui
      --host string         Host/interface to bind the UI server to. Use 0.0.0.0 to allow access from other machines or from inside a container; the UI has no authentication, so restrict exposure (e.g. Docker: -p 127.0.0.1:<port>:<port>) (default "localhost")
      --port string         Port to run the UI server on (default "5556")
      --state-file string   Path to a KCP state file to pre-load
