## Configuration
### CLI
| Flag | Description | Default |
|------------------------------------|----------------------------------|---------------------|
| `--web` | Enable Web backend | `"true"` |
| `--web.address` | Web administration port | `":8080"` |
| `--web.certfile` | SSL certificate | |
| `--web.keyfile` | SSL key | |
| `--web.metrics` | Enable a metrics exporter | `"true"` |
| `--web.metrics.prometheus` | Prometheus metrics exporter type | `"true"` |
| `--web.metrics.prometheus.buckets` | Buckets for latency metrics | `"[0.1 0.3 1.2 5]"` |
| `--web.path` | Root path for dashboard and API | |
| `--web.readonly` | Enable read only API | `"false"` |
| `--web.statistics` | Enable more detailed statistics | `"false"` |
| `--web.statistics.recenterrors` | Number of recent errors logged | `"10"` |
### traefik.toml:
```toml
[web]
address = ":8080"
# Set the root path for webui and API
#
# Optional
#
# path = "/mypath"
#
# SSL certificate and key used
#
# Optional
#
# CertFile = "traefik.crt"
# KeyFile = "traefik.key"
#
# Set REST API to read-only mode
#
# Optional
# ReadOnly = false
#
# To enable more detailed statistics
# [web.statistics]
# RecentErrors = 10
#
# To enable Traefik to export internal metrics to Prometheus
# [web.metrics.prometheus]
# Buckets=[0.1,0.3,1.2,5.0]
#
# To enable Traefik to export internal metics to DataDog
# [web.metrics.datadog]
# Address = localhost:8125
# PushInterval = "10s"
#
# To enable Traefik to export internal metics to StatsD
# [web.metrics.statsd]
# Address = localhost:8125
# PushInterval = "10s"
#
# To enable basic auth on the webui
# with 2 user/pass: test:test and test2:test2
# Passwords can be encoded in MD5, SHA1 and BCrypt: you can use htpasswd to generate those ones
# Users can be specified directly in the toml file, or indirectly by referencing an external file; if both are provided, the two are merged, with external file contents having precedence
# [web.auth.basic]
# users = ["test:$apr1$H6uskkkW$IgXLP6ewTrSuBkTrqE8wj/", "test2:$apr1$d9hr9HBB$4HxwgUir3HP4EsggP/QNo0"]
# usersFile = "/path/to/.htpasswd"
# To enable digest auth on the webui
# with 2 user/realm/pass: test:traefik:test and test2:traefik:test2
# You can use htdigest to generate those ones
# Users can be specified directly in the toml file, or indirectly by referencing an external file; if both are provided, the two are merged, with external file contents having precedence
# [web.auth.digest]
# users = ["test:traefik:a2688e031edb4be6a3797f3882655c05 ", "test2:traefik:518845800f9e2bfb1f1f740ec24f074e"]
# usersFile = "/path/to/.htdigest"

| `/` | `GET` | Provides a simple HTML frontend of Træfik |
| `/ping` | `GET`, `HEAD` | A simple endpoint to check for Træfik process liveness. Return a code `200` with the content: `OK` |
| `/health` | `GET` | json health metrics |
| `/api` | `GET` | Configuration for all providers |
| `/api/providers` | `GET` | Providers |
| `/api/providers/{provider}` | `GET`, `PUT` | Get or update provider |
