renderRows() in nodes.js and three places in map.js were using only
n.last_seen to compute active/stale status, ignoring the more recent
n.last_heard from in-memory packets. This caused nodes that were recently
heard but had an old DB last_seen to incorrectly show as stale.
Also adds 29 unit tests for the aging system (getNodeStatus,
getStatusInfo, getStatusTooltip, threshold values).
- Add getStatusTooltip() helper with role-aware explanations
- Tooltips on status labels in: node badges, status explanation, detail table
- Tooltips on map legend active/stale counts per role
- Native title attributes (long-press on mobile)
- Bump cache busters
Server now computes last_heard from in-memory packet store (all traffic
types) and includes it in /api/nodes response. Client prefers last_heard
over DB last_seen for display, sort, filter, and status calculation.
Fixes inconsistency where list showed '5d ago' but side pane showed
'26m ago' for the same node.
- Create getStatusInfo(), renderNodeBadges(), renderStatusExplanation(),
renderHashInconsistencyWarning() shared helpers
- Side pane (renderDetail) now uses shared helpers and shows status explanation
(was previously missing)
- Full page (loadFullNode) uses same shared helpers
- Both views now render identical status info
- Bump cache buster for nodes.js
Was fetching only 200 nodes with server-side filtering — missed nodes.
Now fetches full list once, caches it, filters by role/search/lastHeard
in the browser. Region change invalidates cache.
Two-state node freshness: Active vs Stale
- roles.js: add getNodeStatus(role, lastSeenMs) helper returning 'active'/'stale'
- Repeaters/Rooms: stale after 72h
- Companions/Sensors: stale after 24h
- Backward compat: getHealthThresholds() with degradedMs/silentMs still works
- map.js: stale markers get .marker-stale CSS class (opacity 0.35, grayscale 70%)
- Applied to both SVG shape markers and hash label markers
- makeMarkerIcon() and makeRepeaterLabelIcon() accept isStale parameter
- nodes.js: visual aging in table, side pane, and full detail
- Table: Last Seen column colored green (active) or muted (stale)
- Side pane: status shows 🟢 Active or ⚪ Stale (was 🟢/🟡/🔴)
- Full detail: Status row with role-appropriate explanation
- Stale repeaters: 'not heard for Xd — repeaters typically advertise every 12-24h'
- Stale companions: 'companions only advertise when user initiates'
- Fixed lastHeard fallback to n.last_seen when health API has no stats
- style.css: .marker-stale, .last-seen-active, .last-seen-stale classes
- All 5 columns (Name, Public Key, Role, Last Seen, Adverts) are now
sortable by clicking the column header
- Click toggles between ascending/descending sort
- Visual indicator (▲/▼) shows current sort column and direction
- Sort preference persisted to localStorage (meshcore-nodes-sort)
- Removed old Sort dropdown since headers replace it
- Client-side sorting on already-fetched data
- Default: Last Seen descending (most recent first)
Added ids: node-stats, node-observers, fullPathsSection, node-packets.
Use ?section=<id> to scroll to any section on load.
e.g. #/nodes/<pubkey>?section=node-packets
Variable hash size badge and analytics links updated to use ?section=.
- Badge is now a link to the detail page with ?highlight=hashsize
- Detail page auto-scrolls to Recent Packets section
- Each advert shows its hash size badge (yellow if different from current)
- Detail page shows always-visible explanation banner (not hidden)
- Side pane badge links to detail page too
Badge shows cursor:help and clicking toggles a yellow-bordered info box
explaining the issue and suggesting firmware update. Stats row just shows
'⚠️ varies' with tooltip. Much less jarring than a dead yellow badge.
Tracks all hash_size values seen per node. If a node has sent adverts
with different hash sizes, flags it as hash_size_inconsistent with a
yellow ⚠️ badge on both side pane and detail page. Tooltip mentions
likely firmware bug (pre-1.14.1). Stats row shows all sizes seen.
CSS fill-opacity selectors weren't matching the QR library's output.
Now JS directly sets white rects to transparent after SVG generation.
Overlay at 70% opacity so it doesn't fight the map for attention.
Removed 'Scan with MeshCore app' label from overlay version.
- QR globally reduced (140px → 100px, overlay 64px)
- Side pane: name/badges first, then map with QR overlaid in bottom-right corner
- Removed standalone QR section from side pane — saves vertical space
- Public key shown inline below map instead of separate section
- No-location nodes still get standalone centered QR
- Full detail page QR wrap narrower (max 160px)
- Map and QR code now sit side-by-side (flex: 3/1) instead of stacked
- QR section shows truncated public key below the code
- Stats section uses a compact 2-column table with alternating row stripes
- Name/badges/actions section tightened up with less vertical spacing
- Mobile (<768px): stacks map and QR vertically
- No-location nodes: QR centered at max 240px width
- Side pane: replace '📋 URL' button with '🔍 Details' link to full detail page
- Side pane: add hash size badge next to role badge
- Full detail page: add hash size badge next to role badge
- Full detail page: add Hash Size row in stats section
- Handle null hash_size gracefully
- Move --status-green/yellow/red from home.css to style.css :root (light+dark)
- Replace hardcoded status colors in style.css (.tl-snr, .health-dot, .byop-err,
.badge-hash-*, .fav-star.on, .spark-fill) with CSS variable references
- Replace hardcoded colors in live.css (VCR mode, stat pills, fdc-link, playhead)
- Replace --primary/--bg-secondary/--text-primary/--text-secondary dead vars with
canonical --accent/--input-bg/--text/--text-muted in style.css, map.js, live.js,
traces.js, packets.js
- Fix nodes.js legend colors to use ROLE_COLORS globals instead of hardcoded hex
- Replace hardcoded hex in home.js (SNR), perf.js (indicators), map.js (accuracy
circles) with CSS variable references via getComputedStyle or var()
- Add --detail-bg to customizer (THEME_CSS_MAP, DEFAULTS, ADVANCED_KEYS, labels)
- Move font/mono out of ADVANCED_KEYS into separate Fonts section in customizer
- Remove debug console.log lines from customize.js
- Bump cache busters in index.html
New hop-display.js: shared renderHop() and renderPath() with
full conflict info — candidate count, regional/global flags,
distance, filter method. Tooltip shows all candidates with
details on hover.
packets.js: uses HopDisplay.renderHop() (was inline)
nodes.js: path rendering uses HopDisplay when available
style.css: .hop-current for highlighting the viewed node in paths
Consistent conflict display across packets + node detail pages.
- packets.js: obsName() now shows IATA code next to observer name, e.g. 'EW-SFC-DR01 (SFO)'
- packets.js: hop conflicts in field table show distance (e.g. '37km')
- nodes.js: both full and sidebar detail views show 'Regions: SJC, OAK, SFO' badges and per-observer IATA
- live.js: node detail panel shows regions in 'Heard By' heading and per-observer IATA
- server.js: /api/nodes/:pubkey/health now returns iata field for each observer
- Bump cache busters
After dedup migration, transmission IDs != old packet IDs.
Hash-based links (#/packets/HASH) are stable across the migration.
Affected: node detail, channel messages, live page packet cards.
- packets.js: Show observation_count badge (👁 N) on grouped rows
- nodes.js: Use totalTransmissions (fallback totalPackets), show observation badges on recent packets
- home.js: Use totalTransmissions for network stats
- node-analytics.js: Use totalTransmissions for throughput display
- analytics.js: Use totalTransmissions for overview stats and node rankings
- live.js: Use totalTransmissions in node detail, show observation badges in feed and recent packets
- style.css: Add .badge-obs style for observation count badges
- index.html: Bump cache busters on all changed JS/CSS files
All changes have backward compat fallbacks to totalPackets.
All cache TTLs now read from config.json cacheTTL section (seconds).
Client fetches config on load via GET /api/config/cache.
config.example.json updated with defaults.
Edit config.json, restart server — no code changes needed to tweak TTLs.
- New route: #/nodes/:pubkey/analytics with Chart.js v4 visualizations
- Activity timeline (bar), SNR trend (line), packet type breakdown (doughnut)
- Observer coverage (horizontal bar), hop distribution (bar)
- Uptime heatmap (7x24 CSS grid, GitHub-style)
- Peer interactions table with links to node details
- Stat cards: availability, signal grade, packets/day, relay %, silence
- Time range selector: 24h / 7d / 30d / All
- Server: GET /api/nodes/:pubkey/analytics with full aggregation in SQLite
- Analytics button added to both sidebar and full-screen node views
