🚀 Quick Start Guide

Get SreyasBridge running in 3 simple steps!

Prerequisites: Make sure you have PowerShell 5.1 or later and Windows 10/11 or Windows Server 2016+.
1

Start the Main Bridge

This starts the core HTTP API service that handles all system commands.

Option A: Use the Batch Launcher (Recommended)

  1. Navigate to your Scripts folder
  2. Right-click on Start-SreyasBridge.bat
  3. Select "Run as Administrator"

Option B: Use PowerShell Directly

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\Scripts\SreyasBridge.ps1"

Option C: Use the Management Utility

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\Scripts\Manage-SreyasBridge.ps1" -Action start
Success: You should see "SreyasBridge HTTP Bridge started on port 5290" and "Press Ctrl+C to stop"
Important: Keep this PowerShell window open! Closing it will stop the bridge service.
2

Start the Web Interface

This provides a beautiful web-based control panel for managing your system.

Option A: Use the Batch Launcher

  1. Right-click on Start-SreyasBridge-Web.bat
  2. Select "Run as Administrator"

Option B: Use PowerShell Directly

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\Scripts\SreyasBridge-Web.ps1"
Success: You should see "SreyasBridge Web Interface started on http://localhost:8080/" and "Press Ctrl+C to stop"
Important: Keep this PowerShell window open too! You now have two PowerShell windows running.

If services don't start:

  2. If restricted, run: Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser
  3. Try running as Administrator

If ports are blocked:

  1. Check Windows Firewall
  2. Make sure no other services are using ports 8080 or 5290
  3. Try different ports in the script configuration

If you see errors:

  1. Check the PowerShell windows for error messages
  2. Make sure both services are running
  3. Try refreshing the browser page
  4. Check the log files in C:\Scripts\

💡 Pro Tips

  • Keep both PowerShell windows open - closing them stops the services
  • Use the Custom tab to add commands you use frequently
  • All operations are logged for troubleshooting
  • The interface is responsive - works on desktop and mobile
  • Commands execute in real-time - no need to refresh
