Change GUI to http prevents WebSerial usage #158

Closed henryk86 closed 5 months ago

henryk86 commented 6 months ago

The change to expose the frontend only to http (by default, but https can be enabled) prevents the direct use of the webserial feature to read, patch and write firmware to esp32.

Maybe this must be separated from the frontend and moved to a kind of api where the backend does the action and frontend just requests that from the backend. But I am not aware how it works currently.

We are working on authentication for the frontend. It may make sense to add a short notice to the flashing section to temporarily enable https access and add a general warning if the https port is exposed.

Is it necessary to have the webserial in the frontend? If I am wrong if I think if the whole webserial stuff is moved to backend and then it is still possible to do so even if the frontend is only http?

It is possible to enable it when needed
