bup-ftp(1) bup-ftp(1)
NAME
bup-web - Start web server to browse bup repositiory
SYNOPSIS
bup web [[hostname]:port]
bup web unix://path
DESCRIPTION
bup web starts a web server that can browse bup repositories. The file
hierarchy is the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1) and
bup-ftp(1).
hostname and port default to 127.0.0.1 and 8080, respectively, and hence
bup web will only offer up the web server to locally running clients.
If you’d like to expose the web server to anyone on your network (dan-
gerous!) you can omit the bind address to bind to all available inter-
faces: :8080.
When unix://path is specified, the server will listen on the filesystem
socket at path rather than a network socket.
A SIGTERM signal may be sent to the server to request an orderly shut-
down.
OPTIONS
--human-readable
display human readable file sizes (i.e. 3.9K, 4.7M)
--browser
open the site in the default browser
