This is the repository for the html UI for kopia. It is bundled as part of the kopia UI releases (e.g. KopiaUI-Setup-X.Y.Z.exe or a kopiaui package).
If you want to report a bug or have an idea for a feature request, please use the issues list of the main kopia repository.
The kopia UI uses React. It connects to a kopia server running locally.
If you want to run a local version of the GUI (e.g. for development), you need to start a kopia server first. As the UI version might be ahead of the latest release and might depend on changes in the server, it's recommended that you also clone the kopia server repository and start the server from there (GO required).
You can use this script like this one. Here it's assumed that you cloned the server repo next to the htmlui.
#! /bin/bash
(
cd ../kopia
# start kopia server with default repo:
#go run . server start --insecure --without-password --disable-csrf-token-checks --log-level=debug
# for development you might want to use another repository for testing only, not your normal one, so you could use, e.g.
go run . server start --insecure --without-password --disable-csrf-token-checks --log-level=debug --config-file=$HOME/.config/kopia/disabled/repository-dev.config
