When ip_range changes, a persistent amber banner appears at the top of
every page showing what changed and a "Apply Now" button. Clicking it
shows a confirmation modal ("containers will restart briefly"), then
calls POST /api/config/apply which runs docker compose up -d from inside
the API container — no manual make start needed.
Backend:
- _set_pending_restart() / _clear_pending_restart() helpers track state
in config_manager so it survives page refresh
- GET /api/config/pending returns { needs_restart, changed_at, changes }
- POST /api/config/apply runs docker compose up -d via the mounted
docker.sock, using the project working_dir label to resolve host paths
- docker-compose.yml mounts docker-compose.yml itself read-only into
the API container so docker compose can read it from inside
Frontend (App.jsx):
- Polls /api/config/pending every 5 s alongside the health check
- PendingRestartBanner component with confirmation modal
- Optimistically clears banner on Apply click; API and containers
restart in the background
