BUG-001: web viewer login/session auth (in web viewer commit)
BUG-002: db_manager ALTER TABLE for missing channel_operations and
feed_message_queue columns on startup
BUG-015: scheduler thread blocked on future.result(); replaced all
blocking waits with add_done_callback (fire-and-forget)
BUG-016: reboot_radio sends meshcore.commands.reboot() before disconnect
BUG-017: radio disconnect uses asyncio.wait_for(timeout=10)
BUG-022: custom asyncio loop exception handler suppresses IndexError
from meshcore parser at DEBUG level
BUG-024: last_db_backup_run updated after each run; 2-min startup
window; last-run seeded from DB on restart
BUG-025: send_channel_message retries up to 2 times (2s delay) on
no_event_received via _is_no_event_received() helper
BUG-026: split_text_into_chunks() and get_max_message_length() added
to CommandManager; keyword dispatch uses send_response_chunked()
BUG-028: byte_data = b"" initialised before try block in
decode_meshcore_packet to prevent UnboundLocalError in except handler
TraceCommand: path nodes reversed and return path truncated; fixed
format_elapsed_display: UTC normalisation before elapsed computation (#75)
RepeaterManager: auto_manage_contacts guard before any purge logic (#50)
Command aliases: [Aliases] config section injects shorthands at startup
JSON logging: _JsonFormatter; json_logging = true in [Logging]
Structured JSON logging compatible with Loki, Elasticsearch, Splunk
Discord bridge, Telegram bridge, and all service plugins updated
MeshGraph edge promotion logic corrected
Shutdown: scheduler and meshcore disconnect joined cleanly; log spam fixed
All modules: ruff and mypy cleanup applied (type annotations, imports)
- Replaced direct SQLite connection calls with a context manager in various modules to ensure proper resource management and prevent file descriptor leaks.
- Introduced a new `connection` method in `DBManager` to standardize connection handling.
- Updated all relevant database interactions in modules such as `feed_manager`, `scheduler`, `commands`, and others to utilize the new connection method.
- Improved code readability and maintainability by consolidating connection logic.
- Update prefix command to accept BOTH legacy 2-char prefixes and
configured prefix_hex_chars (e.g. 4-char) during firmware transition
- Replace strict length validation with dual-length validation (2 or N)
- Ensure prefix lookups work with either input length via LIKE matching
- Update related SQL prefix extraction to use configured prefix length
- Add fallback handling in path parsing for legacy 2-char route data
Notes:
- This is an interim compatibility change to support mixed networks
where RF path data is still 1-byte while bot config may be 2-byte.
- Needs additional testing across real multi-hop scenarios and mixed
bot configurations.
- Translation updates are incomplete: only English strings were updated;
other translation files still need review.
- Behavior and UX may need refinement after real-world testing.
- Updated the configuration handling for the web viewer to use the [Bot] db_path when [Web_Viewer] db_path is unset, ensuring consistent database access.
- Added warnings in the logging to notify users when the web viewer database path differs from the bot database path, guiding them to configure it correctly.
- Refactored database path resolution logic across multiple modules for better maintainability and clarity.
- Changed the default database path in config.ini.example and related files from 'bot_data.db' to 'meshcore_bot.db' for consistency across modules.
- Adjusted final hop proximity scoring parameters in config.ini.example to reflect updated distance normalization and thresholds, enhancing scoring accuracy for LoRa networks.
- Updated documentation to clarify the shared database usage between the bot and web viewer.
- Updated comments in `message_handler.py` and `transmission_tracker.py` to specify that the repeater prefix is extracted from the last hop in the message path.
- Modified the `extract_repeater_prefixes_from_path` method to focus on the last node, improving clarity and functionality by returning only the prefix from the last hop instead of intermediate nodes.
- Updated `send_dm` and `send_channel_message` methods to include an optional `command_id` for tracking message repeats.
- Integrated transmission tracking to record and manage repeat messages, improving message handling and response accuracy.
- Enhanced `capture_command` method in `BotIntegration` to store repeat information for better analysis in the web viewer.
- Added favicon support and improved web viewer templates to display repeat information effectively.
- Implemented JavaScript updates in the web viewer to handle command updates and display repeat counts dynamically.
