You can add password protection for your session by creating a file in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/broadway.passwd or $HOME/.config/broadway.passwd with a crypt(3) style password hash. A simple way to generate it is with openssl:
openssl passwd -1 > ~/.config/broadway.passwd
Options
–port- Use PORT as the HTTP port, instead of the default 8080 + (DISPLAY – 1).
–address
- Use ADDRESS as the HTTP address, instead of the default http://127.0.0.1:PORT.
–unixsocket
- Use ADDRESS as the unix domain socket address. This option overrides –address and –port. It is available only on Unix-like systems.
