ChuckandClaude Opus 5 eb942275c1 fix(api-v3): clear the six lint errors this rebase introduced
All six were introduced by rebasing this branch onto the merged blueprint
split, not by the split itself. Confirmed by diffing pyflakes output against
main with line numbers normalised -- everything else it reports is present on
main too and is the package's deliberate re-export pattern.

starlark.py used _STARLARK_APPS_DIR three times without importing it (F821).
The rebase resolved an import-list conflict as a union of both sides, and that
symbol was on neither side of the conflict hunk, so it was silently lost. It is
defined in __init__.py and is now imported like its neighbours. This was the
only one of the six that would fail at runtime rather than merely lint.

__init__.py imported contextlib twice (F811): the cherry-pick added one next to
the existing import. Removed the duplicate; the original at line 19 is used.

__init__.py imported signal purely to re-export it to starlark.py, so pyflakes
saw it as unused (F401). signal is stdlib and does not need routing through the
blueprint package, so starlark.py imports it directly and __init__.py no longer
does. contextlib stays re-exported because this module genuinely uses it.

_read_mqtt_bridge_config()'s local `config` shadowed the `config` submodule
this module imports at the bottom for its route side effects (F811). Renamed to
`settings`, with a comment saying why, since the name is otherwise the obvious
one to reach for.

Verified: pyflakes now reports nothing on this branch that main does not, the
package imports, all nine route modules load, and 117 routes register, matching
the pinned URL-map snapshot.

LED Matrix Web Interface V3

Modern, production web interface for controlling the LED Matrix display.

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

Or using the shell script:

./web_interface/run.sh

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:

Configuration

The web interface reads configuration from:

  • config/config.json - Main configuration
  • config/config_secrets.json - API keys and secrets

API Documentation

The V3 API is mounted at /api/v3/ (app.py:144). 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 configuration
  • POST /api/v3/config/main - Save main configuration
  • GET /api/v3/config/secrets - Get secrets configuration
  • POST /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 status
  • POST /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 frame
  • GET /api/v3/display/on-demand/status - On-demand status
  • POST /api/v3/display/on-demand/start - Trigger on-demand display
  • POST /api/v3/display/on-demand/stop - Clear on-demand

Plugins

  • GET /api/v3/plugins/installed - List installed plugins
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/config?plugin_id=<id> - Get plugin config
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/config - Update plugin configuration
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/schema?plugin_id=<id> - Get plugin schema
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/toggle - Enable/disable plugin
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/install - Install from registry
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/install-from-url - Install from GitHub URL
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/uninstall - Uninstall plugin
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/update - Update plugin

Plugin Store

  • GET /api/v3/plugins/store/list - List available registry plugins
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/store/github-status - GitHub authentication status
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/store/refresh - Refresh registry from GitHub

Real-time Streams (SSE)

SSE stream endpoints are defined directly on the Flask app (app.py:607-619 — includes the CSRF exemption and rate-limit hookup alongside the three route definitions), not on the api_v3 blueprint:

  • GET /api/v3/stream/stats - System statistics stream
  • GET /api/v3/stream/display - Display preview stream
  • GET /api/v3/stream/logs - Service logs stream

Development

When making changes to the web interface:

  1. Edit files in this directory
  2. Test changes by running python3 web_interface/start.py
  3. 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
