setting up cadvisor through API

Question

I am using ubuntu server hosted on cloud and try to setup cadvisor by this command

docker run -d --name=cadvisor -p 8080:8080 --volume=/var/run:/var/run:rw --volume=/sys:/sys:ro --volume=/var/lib/docker/:/var/lib/docker:ro google/cadvisor:latest

It gets installed properly, but now I need to expose the API from browser. How do I do it.

You can get access to cAdisor Remote REST API by following this:

Example: http://<host-ip>:8080/api/v1.3/<req-path>.
