That's exactly what the beets webui is supposed to look like. It's primarily a CLI app. Read the documentation we link to here https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-beets#application-setup

Yes I understand that it is a cli application. Maybe documentation should include some examples on how to use. So in my example shouldnt typing 'status' be equivalent to running 'beets status ' but why does nothing happen on my screen?

[j0nnymoe]

The webui is mearly for querying your beets database, all other interactions with beets has to be done via cli.
We already provide information about how to use beets and link to their documentation. We also don't state anything about using the webui.

Ah, how about importing? Can you import from webui?

[j0nnymoe]

If you can, it will tell you in the beets documentation. I haven't used it for a number of years but last time I checked, you couldn't.

[j0nnymoe]

or just read the webui plugin docs https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/plugins/web.html
