Configuring Web Server

The flask web server configuration will look something like

"webserver": {
    "port": 1234,
    "listen": "127.0.0.1",
    "webroot": "https://i.example.com",
    "data_directory": "Config",
    "upload_directory": "data/uploads",
    "admin_auth": {
      "username": "admin",
      "password": "ThisIsASuperStrongP@ssw0rd!"
    }
  }
