back-end and front-end are both built when the build of the `websrv` optional library is requested. When cmake configuration has been completed, with websrv enabled,font-end and back-end can be built separatly, using respectively `make frontend` or `make websrv` from the build repository.
When all dependencies are met, you can build the web server interface components using the build_oai script with the `--build-lib all` option . As the web interface is an optional component, if it's dependencies are not found it won't stop the build. Web interface components (back-end or front-end) which cannot be built are just skipped. If you specifically ask for the webserver build ( `--build-lib websrv`) the build will fail if dependencies check failed.

# building and installing the front-end after cmake has been configured
Before building the front-end you need to install the npm node.js installer, otherwise the make target won't exist:
`apt-get install npm` for ubuntu or `dnf install npm`for fedora
then configure cmake to be able to build and install the frontend without using the build_oai script:
``` bash
cd \<oai repository\>/openairinterface5g/cmake_targets/ran_build/build
make websrvfront

# Building and installing the web server back-end after cmake has been configured
The back-end has two dependencies:
1. the [ulfius library](https://github.com/babelouest/ulfius) and the corresponding include files which are provided by the ubuntu libulfius-dev package: `sudo apt-get install -y libulfius-dev`
2. the [jansson](https://github.com/akheron/jansson-debian) library and the corresponding include files which are provided by the ubuntu libjansson-dev package: `sudo apt-get install -y libjansson-dev`
Dependencies can also be installed on fedora distribution, the jansson package is `jansson-devel`, ulfius has to be installed as explained [here](https://github.com/babelouest/ulfius/blob/master/INSTALL.md#pre-compiled-packages).
The websrv targets won't be available till cmake has been successfully configured with the websrv option enabled
```bash
cd \<oai repository\>/openairinterface5g
source oaienv
cd cmake_targets
./build_oai --build-lib websrv
```
or, without the help of the `build_oai` script:
```bash
cd \<oai repository\>/openairinterface5g/cmake_targets/ran_build/build
make websrv
```
This will create the `libwebsrv.so` file in the `targets/bin` and `cmake_targets/ran_build/build` sub directories of the oai repository.
When starting the softmodem, you must specify the **_\-\-websrv_** option to load and start the web server. The web server is loaded via the [oai shared library loader](loader).
# Testing the web server interface
## web server parameters
The web server back-end is using the [oai configuration module](Config/Rtusage). web server parameters must be specified in the websrv section.
| name | type | default | description |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|:----|
| `listenaddr` | `ipV4 address, ascii format` | "0.0.0.0" | local address the back-end is listening on |
| `listenport` | `integer` | 8090 | port number the server is listening on |
| debug | `integer` | 0 | When not 0, http requests headers and json objects dump are added to back-end traces |
| fpath | character string | websrv | The path to on-disk http server resources . The default value matches the front-end installation when running the softmodem from the executables repository. |
| cert, key, rootca | `character string` | null | certificates and key used to trigger https protocol (not tested) |
| | | | |
## running the back-end
To trigger the back-end use the `--websrv` option, possibly modifying the parameters as explained in the previous chapter. The two following commands allow starting the oai gNB and the oai 5G UE on the same computer, starting the telnet server and the web interface on both executables.
`./nr-softmodem -O /usr/local/oai/conf/gnb.band78.sa.fr1.106PRB.usrpb210.conf --rfsim --rfsimulator.serveraddr server --telnetsrv --telnetsrv.listenstdin --websrv --rfsimulator.options chanmod`
.`/nr-uesoftmodem -O /usr/local/oai/conf/nrue_sim.conf --sa --numerology 1 -r 106 -C 3649440000 --rfsim --rfsimulator.serveraddr 127.0.0.1 --websrv --telnetsrv --websrv.listenport 8092 --telnetsrv.listenport 8091`
## Connecting from a browser to the oai softmodem's
Assuming that the previous commands run successfully and that you also run your browser on the same host, you should be able to connect to the gNB and UE web interface using respectively the following url's:
http://127.0.0.1:8090/websrv/index.html
http://127.0.0.1:8092/websrv/index.html
The interface should be intuitive enough, keeping in mind the following restrictions:
- The command tab is not available if the telnet server is not enabled
- The softscope tab is not available if the xforms scope is started `(-d` option)
- Only one connection is supported to a back-end, especially for the scope interface
Some front-end objects, which usage are less intuitive provide a tooltip to help interface usage.
