evidentia-api
FastAPI REST server and bundled React web UI for Evidentia, the open-source GRC tool.
This package is not typically installed directly. The preferred way is via the [gui] extra on the meta-package:
uv tool install "evidentia[gui]"
# or
pip install "evidentia[gui]"
Then run:
evidentia serve
# -> FastAPI + React UI at http://127.0.0.1:8000
What's inside
- FastAPI app (
evidentia_api.app:app) — REST endpoints mirroring every CLI capability. - SPA — React/Vite/shadcn/ui frontend, bundled as static assets inside the wheel under
evidentia_api/static/. - SSE streaming — long-running LLM calls (
risk generate,explain) stream progress to the browser without blocking.
REST surface
Every endpoint is typed with Pydantic models reused from evidentia-core. All endpoints bind to 127.0.0.1 by default; --host 0.0.0.0 emits a security warning.
