[Experimental feature] Webbased frontend

[Koenkk]

This experimental feature allows to run a frontend straight from Zigbee2MQTT (so no additional setup is required).
This frontend is developed by @nurikk, the source code can be found here: https://github.com/nurikk/z2m-frontend

To enable this, switch to the dev branch and add the following to your configuration.yam.

frontend:
  port: 8080

In case you find any issues in the frontend, report them here: https://github.com/nurikk/z2m-frontend/issues

Initial impressions using firefox on macOS

• the padding is a bit tight see the left side.
• some of my devices are at half or less battery %, perhaps the battery icon could also reflect this.
• device/info page could perhaps link to the online docs, as they usually have pairing notes or even configuration notes.
• (not really a frontend thing but) perhaps we should update the product images so they have a transparent background
• product images are hotlinked from the main site, if you proxy the interface over ssl, you get mixed content warnings at best or they don't load at all. ==> fetch these in the background and cache them locally?
• perhaps the 'action' menu should just be 2 right aligned buttons
• log tail with maybe some color highlighting would be nice to have eventually too
• would be nice to have device_options editable via the settings tab
• per-device options would also be nice to have editable somewhere
• large networkmaps are... euhm useless
  

The group view is absolutely amazing!

Very promising start!

The bind tab also no longer show the devices friendly name, the network address is still in the URL though, but would be nice to also have that visible.

Does using port 8080 conflict with Domoticz, when it's on the same RPi as Z2M?

You can specify any port in configuration

Sorting is working great, except for the power colomn.

Guys, as I understand it, the map is saved only for the current session in the browser?

Yes, refresh page and you lose your data

What wrong with it?

How do you find this way of showing logs? (only data from bridge/logging is shown)

[sjorge]

It doesn’t do anything. I would have expected the battery and mains powered one to be grouped together. (Or ideally sort the battery ones on battery level) ~ sjorge

Interesting... I don't have a logs menu. It's optional menu? And it can be turn on from configuration?

You should update dependencies, yesterday I've released update. It adds sorting by battery level
