The channel sends through the Bot API with httpx only: HTML with escaped text,
cut to fit a message, silent for a warning, a short 429 waited out once, and
errors that say what to do about a blocked bot, a lost chat or a bad token and
never quote the request URL. The bot token is a stored secret: saving a
channel refuses a literal one, the card's "Store token" writes the secret and
a reference, and no endpoint returns it.
A chat id is never typed. Connect starts a ten minute code, and the chat that
sends `/start <code>` back through the bot is the one connected, so it is a
chat somebody opened a link for. The engine fetches updates only while a code
is waiting (no standing poll, no webhook, no inbound address) and ignores
everything else without a reply. Connect needs a saved form, and the form
takes the connected chat in without touching what was typed since.
The token is part of every Bot API URL, so the httpx logger gets the same
filter the request lines have, which now also masks an httpx.URL argument.
The summary read degraded for 15 minutes after any single node_error, even
once the node had run well again and including one bad input from a visitor.
The controller now counts a node's failures since it last ran well and notes
when it recovered; both carry across rebuilds and an acknowledgement resets
the count. Two in a row inside the 15 minute window is "failing" (a problem),
one is listed under warnings, and nodes.failing keeps meaning "failing now".
Any signed-in account could save an ntfy channel with its own `server` and a
`{"$secret": ...}` token and press Test, which sent the stored secret to that
host. The config GET/PUT, the test route and the global search's alert entries
now answer to superusers, like /secrets. The webpush key and subscribe routes
stay open to every account, and the Alerts page shows a non-superuser only the
button for its own browser. The events table in the docs gains run_finished.
/search gains a `setting` category, `<node>.<setting>` under its flow with the
node type and the value in a new `detail` field, so Ctrl-K finds which node
uses a broker or a timeout and opens the node. `setting_text` is the one place
that decides what may be said: a reference to a stored secret shows its name
(to superusers only, as the secrets list does), a plain value in an `x-secret`
field or under a key like password, token or api_key is masked and never
indexed, nested credentials in headers or query are masked, long values are
clipped. The global search ranks what contains the query as typed ahead of
loose spellings before it caps a group, which long setting values would
otherwise have crowded out.
The command line no longer imports a research module, so import-time GPU work
ends with a short-lived child instead of holding a CUDA context for the length
of a followed run. fluksio.sdk.declare starts the child, which writes each
flow's document and shims as JSON; Declared stands in for Flow in sync().
Errors keep their type and message, a child's traceback reaches the user.
_serve_once treated a cancelled call future as finished, so an event loop
cancelling all tasks at once (shutdown) never sent the worker a cancel and the
call's thread kept asyncio.run waiting for SILENCE_S. The cameras audio test
now removes its voice flow and device, the unpaired-frame test waits for its
first frame before the unpair, and test_connector no longer inherits the
controller an app test bound to demand.
POST/GET /flows/{name}/nodes/{id}/train submit wren_train on the node's
targets, examples and tests and read its latest run (run.for_node,
cause "train"); "Use this model" writes `model` into the draft.
C4: a device's `viewers` (superusers by default, or members) covers the
image and video messages its ports publish. Anyone else gets none of their
values on the socket, in the catalogue or a flow's state, 403 for their
history, for the frames they hold (the last 8 included) and for TURN
credentials, no bytes when asking for them, and `bye: forbidden` for a live
view. A device credential stays bounded by its dashboards. The device page
sets it in its Camera section, and a tile the viewer may not see says
"No access to this camera" and asks the camera for nothing.
C3:
- A volatile upload is held to MAX_FRAME_BYTES (4 MiB, 413 above it, read
without extra copies), and so is a frame on a device's socket.
- A frame the engine holds in memory is written to the ring directory
before a local worker is handed it, so load_artifact finds it.
- A socket the bus dropped events for catches up with a snapshot, demand
included, and a device's credential is checked again per frame, cached by
the flow store revision and its nonce, so a lost event never keeps an
unpaired device's frames coming.
- A report is at most 64 KB once its named config_schemas are put in place.
- A device away for 60 s has its true bool messages set to false.
- Refused frames are logged by fixed keys, a frame is named after its
message, `fluksio serve` waits 5 s for open connections, a tile with a
stream URL creates no demand, the 8-name cap keeps the newest names.
- Every container's log rotates (json-file, 3 x 10 MB).
A device reporting a `live` port streams its camera to the browser's own
RTCPeerConnection. The flows socket carries the signalling as text, so it
crosses the portal: `live` messages on a person's socket, `signal` on a
device's (start, sdp, candidate, bye, busy). The server routes by session,
holds a device to two viewers, ends a session when either socket closes or
no answer comes within 10 s, and gives each socket an outbox of its own
that ends a session rather than drop a message. TURN credentials are
minted per session in coturn's REST scheme (STUN_URLS, TURN_URLS,
TURN_SECRET), the viewer's with the device's offer; GET /devices/{id}/ice
hands them out too. The tunnel keeps a stream's early frames instead of
dropping them past eight and forgets them when the stream or link goes.
A media tile on a device's camera, and the Devices tab's preview, play
live when tapped, pause frames meanwhile, and fall back to frames with a
short note on busy, failure or no picture within 10 s. coturn is an
optional compose service behind the `turn` profile.
- Volatile frames are held in memory with a byte-bounded queue instead of
the /dev/shm ring scanned on every put; workers keep writing to the
directory, which is trimmed on a timer. A volatile upload no longer spools
to disk. ARTIFACT_VOLATILE_BYTES=0 turns the ring off.
- A device sends camera frames as binary messages on its socket, held and
published in one step and credited to its device node; refused frames are
logged and dropped. Its snapshot carries demand and the uplink (binary, or
http through the portal).
- One demand registry for every socket's wanted media, the tunnel's
included, plus what running flows read, mapped onto on-demand ports and
published as device_demand; at most 8 media names per socket.
- Per-message deflate off in serve and dev; a device may fetch the last 8
digests of a message; published dashboards cached per store revision; a
revoked device socket is closed with 1008.
- Media tiles want bytes only while on screen; the Devices tab previews a
wired camera; the device node warns when a flow reads an on-demand port.
Every call through the portal arrives off the tunnel, so the per-address limit
skips those (the hub limits them by the real address), and the cap of 50 counts
and evicts portal and local requests apart, so a portal flood never pushes out
a device waiting on this network.
- POST /devices/pair answers a 2-character `check`, listed by /devices/pending
and shown beside each waiting entry; five codes a minute per address, and at
50 waiting the oldest gives way instead of a 429
- portal-minted device tokens are asked for with the device's nonce (`pnc`) and
held against it, so unpair and delete revoke them; one without `pnc` stands
only while the nonce is 0
- a device credential acts as the device (`device_principal`), not as the
approving superuser, so deleting that account unpairs nothing
- the report is validated port by port: unknown enum values read as `unknown`,
unreadable ports and sections are left out and logged, `config` may name an
entry of `config_schemas`; 422 only for no schema 1 or no object
- devices.json is parsed once per change (cached by stat), delete drops the
report and keeps the nonce, a busy recheck runs in the background
- scope and io only from enabled flows (start/stop tells the devices), a port
bound twice gives one io row
- the Devices tab's saves cancel and hold back device refetches until settled
- A device credential that cannot be checked now (device store not running,
nonces unreadable) raises DeviceUnavailable: 503 over HTTP, and the
/flows/ws handshake and the tunnel stream accept and close with 1013.
1008 (a 403 before accepting) stays for a revoked or invalid one
- Device files are written through a temporary file, so a read mid-save no
longer looks like a deleted device
- The first report turns Touch friendly on only for a device paired since
pairings are noted (DeviceState.paired_at), so devices paired before keep
the switch they were given
- NodeDef reads `device`/`device_policy` from older clients as the worker
label, for a release
- Tests: transient vs revoked socket, the touch default, the old worker keys,
and a restart with a device node and a node_health rule sending no push
A device reports its board, screen, camera and ports from its own
credential (16 KB, schema 1, replacing the last report), and the flows
are validated against it again. The node panel turns a reported port's
config schema into a form, a reported screen is a canvas preset and a
touch screen's first report turns Touch friendly on. An offline device
node is degraded: amber on the canvas, a warning on Home, never a fault.
- flow/nodes/device.py: `device` node with params `device` and `config`;
provides the device's `in` ports, requires its `out` ports without
waking anything, never run (Node.passive), down "Offline" from presence
- DeviceDef.io and DevicePort go; GET /devices/{id} computes `io` and
`bindings` from the device nodes of published flows, in a fixed order,
cached by FlowStore.revision; the credential's scope comes from them
- issues `unknown_device` and `device_port` (wired twice; against a report
the wrong direction or dtype, or unlisted as advisory), rechecked when a
device is created or deleted; ValidationIssue.advisory is a field
- a device publishing on a bound port is credited to its node by the
server; the panel endpoint kind is gone from `_endpoints` and the canvas
- a rebuild that moves a device's bindings sends `dashboard_changed` with
an empty name, which the firmware refetches on
- startup moves each device's `io` rows into device nodes in the flows
declaring their messages, draft and published, one commit; rows no
flow declares are logged and left out
- frontend: Device node settings (device, Publishes, Follows, a port
picker from a report), palette shortcuts per reported port, DeviceDetail
lists bindings with "Use in flow" in place of the I/O editor
- docs: devices, flow editor, node types, issues, API
- flow/devices.py: DeviceDef in FLOWS_DIR/_devices/<id>.json, committed under
the flow store's write lock, 409 on a stale version; nonces in DEVICES_FILE
outside git; in-memory presence announced as device_status
- api/routes/devices.py: CRUD, pairing with an optional {name, board,
firmware}, a pending list adopted without a code from the LAN only, unpair;
/panels/pair, /panels/pair/{code} and GET /panels/{id} kept as aliases,
PUT /panels/ gone
- _device_may replaces _panel_may, JWT claims unchanged
- panels.json moves into devices once at startup, then .migrated
- MCP list_devices, get_device; search category device
- Devices tab (list, detail with presence, pairing, ordered dashboards,
touch, I/O), PanelsDialog removed, serialised optimistic saves
The hello carries the fluksio-worker version. An agent refused for an older
protocol stays listed as Needs upgrade until it attaches again. Docs gain an
Upgrading workers section.
The connector now serves /mcp, its OAuth documents and /hooks/ besides
/api/v1/, refuses any dot segment (httpx resolves them, which carried
/api/v1/../../mcp onto the MCP mount), addresses calls to the hub's host,
and bridges served sockets by calling the app with a websocket scope.
A hook without a secret answers the tunnel with the 404 (or 1008) of a
wrong secret. Requests through the hub get the hub's issuer, resource and
consent page in the OAuth metadata and the 401, and the MCP host check
admits the hub while enrolled.
Every datetime the API emits for versions (flow summaries' updated_at,
runs' created/started/finished with flow_version) is already ISO 8601
with Z or +00:00. A test holds it and the API docs say so.
CACHE_SHAPE_SINCE marks the last change that moved every cache key. The
run service's periodic sweep clears cache_key on rows of runs created
before it, which nothing can match any more. Their outputs stay.
DELETE /runs?flow= removes every Run row of the flow but left its flow_run
rows, so a deleted flow kept appearing in the history. history=true now
drops those too, and the flow delete dialogs (editor and bulk) send it when
"Also delete its runs" is ticked.
Migration ccb21eacf5d5 deletes rows whose run is gone, then adds foreign keys
with ON DELETE CASCADE from run_node, run_metric and run_artifact to run.id.
Deleting runs is now the one statement. A node or metric written after its
run was deleted is dropped with an info line. Migrations run with foreign keys
off, since a batch rebuild of run would otherwise cascade into every child row.
The run detail works out curve_lost per node when read, from whether its
cached_from run still exists. The run page names the deleted run in place
of the generic NO_CURVE note.
Run.declared (migration 2e7ca7d10044) snapshots the declarations on submit
and import. The run detail's Inputs panel reads them, and a run from before
falls back to the flow's current declarations.
POST /observability/flush handles what the collector has queued and writes
it, so the soak harness no longer sleeps FLUSH_INTERVAL_S before clearing
its own rows.
