Hi Romain, Disabling the console (web UI) is easy once it becomes part of the polaris-server.
To clarify, the web UI is a static web resource, it doesn't execute web-UI code in Quarkus. The UI uses the same authentication and authorization mechanisms that any REST client uses; it is just a UI on top of that. Hope this helps, Robert On Mon, Jun 1, 2026 at 4:33 PM Romain Manni-Bucau <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > as an user I have a small request: can it be disabled by default (or made > unusable by disabling the authn) or at least be made easy to disable > (corrollar being: can we get a headless docker image, solves my concern > too)? > rational is that when you have everything automated around polaris you > don't want the UI to be able to mess up things nor render a different view. > not my usage but an in between readonly enforced mode - even for admin > users - can be useful I think so maybe 3 modes in terms of toggle: Full, > ReadOnly, Off or alike. > > Shouldn't be crazy to do with quarkus but think it is an important feature > to integrate it cleanly as a global solution. > > the tricky part is to make the prod and dev defaults converging but quarkus > has a profile option by default which can be the way to solve it. > > hope it makes sense. > > Romain Manni-Bucau > @rmannibucau <https://x.com/rmannibucau> | .NET Blog > <https://dotnetbirdie.github.io/> | Blog <https://rmannibucau.github.io/> > | Old > Blog <http://rmannibucau.wordpress.com> | Github > <https://github.com/rmannibucau> | LinkedIn > <https://www.linkedin.com/in/rmannibucau> | Book > < > https://www.packtpub.com/en-us/product/java-ee-8-high-performance-9781788473064 > > > Javaccino founder (Java/.NET service - contact via linkedin) > > > Le lun. 1 juin 2026 à 15:28, Jean-Baptiste Onofré <[email protected]> a > écrit : > > > Hi, > > > > Yes, that is indeed part of the proposal. > > > > The goal is to provide the UI as soon as the Polaris server starts to > > ensure a better experience for our users. > > > > Regards, > > JB > > > > On Mon, Jun 1, 2026 at 3:12 PM Robert Stupp <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > +1 > > > > > > Could we then bundle the Console with the Polaris server? > > > > > > On Mon, Jun 1, 2026 at 8:01 AM Jean-Baptiste Onofré <[email protected]> > > wrote: > > > > > > > Hi everyone, > > > > > > > > As mentioned on the dev mailing list a few days ago, I am currently > > > > preparing the first release of the Polaris Console.
