* fix(store): don't read a ZIP-installed plugin's remote from the LEDMatrix repo update_plugin looked up remote.origin.url with `git -C <plugin> config --local` for plugins that are not git checkouts. Under plugin-repos/ git walks up to the enclosing LEDMatrix repository, so the lookup returned LEDMatrix's own URL and a plugin missing from the registry was "reinstalled" from the LEDMatrix repo. Only ask git when the plugin directory has its own .git, the test _get_local_git_info already uses. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(schema): report each missing required field once, by name validate_config_against_schema ran its own required-fields loop after Draft7Validator.iter_errors, which already yields one `required` error per missing field, so every missing top-level field was listed twice. The validator's copy also printed the schema's whole `required` list ("Missing required property '['api_key', 'city']'") instead of the field. Drop the loop and take the field name from the error itself. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(store): stop mangling repository URLs that contain ".git" install_from_url and fetch_registry_from_url cleaned URLs with `rstrip('/').replace('.git', '')`, which removes ".git" anywhere: https://github.com/user/my.github.io became .../myhub.io, so installing or browsing that repository asked GitHub for one that does not exist. Add src/plugin_system/repo_urls.py with one anchored normalize_repo_url(), same_repo() for comparisons, github_owner_repo() and github_api_headers(), and use them for the five copies of the owner/repo parsing and GitHub headers in the store and for saved repositories. GitHub URLs are now recognised by urlparse().hostname everywhere: _get_latest_commit_info used a substring test, and _install_from_monorepo_api parsed any host. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(store): install a repository whose only branch is not main/master _install_via_git returned None both when every clone failed and when the last-resort clone of the repository's default branch succeeded. _install_plugin_impl papered over it with `and not plugin_path.exists()`; install_from_url did not, so a repository whose only branch is e.g. `develop` was cloned, then treated as a failure, then "downloaded" from main/master archives that do not exist. After a default-branch clone, return the branch the clone checked out (read from .git/HEAD), so None means failure and nothing else, and give both callers the same `branch_used is None` fallback. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(plugins): judge the memory limit on each call's own growth monitor_call stores `metrics.memory_mb = max(previous, growth)`, and _check_limits compared that high-water mark with max_memory_mb. It never decreases, so once one update() grew the process past the limit every later call raised ResourceLimitExceeded and the circuit breaker kept reopening. Pass the call's own RSS growth to _check_limits; keep the high-water mark for reporting and document what it measures. Remove ResourceMetrics.update_average_execution_time: nothing called it, and it overwrote the running total with the average. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(plugins): reload_plugin re-reads the manifest from the discovered directory reload_plugin read `plugins_dir / plugin_id / "manifest.json"`, ignoring the discovery map and the plugin_dirs rules. For a plugin whose directory name differs from its manifest id the path did not exist, the re-read was skipped without a word, and the reload kept the stale manifest. Resolve the directory with find_plugin_directory, as load_plugin does. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(plugins): drop the always-null last_display from plugin state info PluginStateManager reported `last_display` from `_last_display`, which nothing ever wrote, so it was null for every plugin. Recording it in PluginExecutor.execute_display would not help: get_state_info's only reader is the web process, whose PluginManager never calls display(). Remove the field, its dict and get_last_display() (no caller in core, the web UI or the plugin monorepo). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(store): share the rollback and requirements helpers, drop dead code - install_plugin and _reinstall_with_rollback set aside, discard and restore the old copy through _set_aside/_discard_backup/_restore_backup instead of two copies of the same blocks. - The loader and the store run the same pre-pip checks through contained_plugin_dir() and requirements_to_install() in plugin_loader. They still invoke pip differently (sys.executable -m pip vs. the sudo wrapper). `except (BrokenPipeError, OSError)` + `isinstance(e, OSError)` becomes `except OSError` checking errno.EPIPE. - load_module never returns None, so load_plugin's check is gone and the docstring says what it raises. - Remove the always-true JSONSCHEMA_AVAILABLE, the inline re-imports of re and permission_utils, the fake status_result object nobody reads, hasattr(git_error, 'cmd'), a redundant "merge conflict" test and `import traceback` (exc_info=True does it). - Correct comments: install_from_url names the directory for the caller's id when given (not always the manifest id), _get_local_git_info saves one git subprocess (not four), _enrich calls two helpers, search_plugins documents all its arguments, _find_plugin_path states its behaviour instead of a TODO, and history narration is gone. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(plugins): tidy base_plugin, correct plugin_manager/state comments - base_plugin: drop the unused `import logging`; get_display_duration runs the instance value and the config value through one _positive_seconds() helper instead of two copies of the coercion; the 'static'/'none'/fallback branches of get_vegas_display_mode, which all returned FIXED_SEGMENT, are one; fix the mis-indented validate_config example; say that get_supported_vegas_modes/get_vegas_segment_width are not consulted by core (kept, plugins override them). - schema_manager: import expand_style_elements normally rather than swallowing an ImportError of a core module. - plugin_manager: the plugins directory is the configured one (plugin-repos/ by default), not plugins/; get_config() returns the live dict, not a copy, so the interval cache comments say what it saves. - state_manager: config_version and the file version are not used to detect corruption; say what they are. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(plugins): stop writing data/plugin_operations.json PluginOperationQueue wrote its finished-operation history to data/plugin_operations.json after every operation, and read it back only into its own in-memory list, which only get_operation_history() exposes -- and nothing calls that. The operation-history endpoint reads OperationHistory (data/operation_history.json). No code in src/, web_interface/, scripts/ or test/ reads the file. Drop the history_file/lazy_load parameters and the load/save code; the bounded in-memory history stays. web_interface/app.py and the integration test stop passing the removed arguments. An existing data/plugin_operations.json is left in place (data/* is gitignored).

Overview
This directory contains the active V3 web interface with the following features:
- Real-time display preview via Server-Sent Events (SSE)
- Plugin management and configuration
- System monitoring and logs
- Modern, responsive UI
- RESTful API

Running the Web Interface
Standalone (Development)
From the project root:
python3 web_interface/start.py
As a Service (Production)
The web interface can run as a systemd service that starts automatically based on the web_display_autostart configuration setting:
sudo systemctl start ledmatrix-web
sudo systemctl enable ledmatrix-web # Start on boot
Accessing the Interface
Once running, access the web interface at:
- Local: http://localhost:5000
- Network: http://:5000
Configuration
The web interface reads configuration from:
config/config.json- Main configurationconfig/config_secrets.json- API keys and secrets
API Documentation
The V3 API is the api_v3 blueprint, registered at /api/v3/ in
app.py. For the complete
list and request/response formats, see
docs/REST_API_REFERENCE.md. Quick
reference for the most common endpoints:
Configuration
GET /api/v3/config/main- Get main configurationPOST /api/v3/config/main- Save main configurationGET /api/v3/config/secrets- Get secrets configurationPOST /api/v3/config/raw/main- Save raw main config (Config Editor)POST /api/v3/config/raw/secrets- Save raw secrets
Display & System Control
GET /api/v3/system/status- System statusPOST /api/v3/system/action- Control display (action body:start_display,stop_display,restart_display_service,restart_web_service,git_pull,reboot_system,shutdown_system,enable_autostart,disable_autostart)GET /api/v3/display/current- Current display frameGET /api/v3/display/on-demand/status- On-demand statusPOST /api/v3/display/on-demand/start- Trigger on-demand displayPOST /api/v3/display/on-demand/stop- Clear on-demand
Plugins
GET /api/v3/plugins/installed- List installed pluginsGET /api/v3/plugins/config?plugin_id=<id>- Get plugin configPOST /api/v3/plugins/config- Update plugin configurationGET /api/v3/plugins/schema?plugin_id=<id>- Get plugin schemaPOST /api/v3/plugins/toggle- Enable/disable pluginPOST /api/v3/plugins/install- Install from registryPOST /api/v3/plugins/install-from-url- Install from GitHub URLPOST /api/v3/plugins/uninstall- Uninstall pluginPOST /api/v3/plugins/update- Update plugin
Plugin Store
GET /api/v3/plugins/store/list- List available registry pluginsGET /api/v3/plugins/store/github-status- GitHub authentication statusPOST /api/v3/plugins/store/refresh- Refresh registry from GitHub
Real-time Streams (SSE)
SSE stream endpoints are defined directly on the Flask app in app.py
(stream_stats, stream_display, stream_logs, followed by their CSRF
exemption and rate-limit hookup), not on the api_v3 blueprint:
GET /api/v3/stream/stats- System statistics streamGET /api/v3/stream/display- Display preview streamGET /api/v3/stream/logs- Service logs stream
Development
When making changes to the web interface:
- Edit files in this directory
- Test changes by running
python3 web_interface/start.py - Restart the service if running:
sudo systemctl restart ledmatrix-web
Notes
- Templates and static files use the
v3/prefix to allow for future versions - The interface uses Flask blueprints for modular organization
- SSE streams provide real-time updates without polling
