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.
