Cloud camera platform integrations with provider interface pattern:
Framework (cloud-cameras/types.ts):
- CloudCameraProvider interface: testCredentials, listCameras,
getStreamUrl, credentialFields
- CloudAccount model + vendor registry
- Multiple accounts per vendor per tenant supported
- All auth on server — kiosk only gets streaming URLs
Vendors:
- Hik-Connect: token auth, device list via OpenAPI, local RTSP
(cloud P2P relay requires native SDK — not supported yet)
- Dahua: HTTP Basic/Digest against device ISAPI, channel enumeration,
RTSP URL construction per channel
- Tuya: OAuth2 + HMAC-SHA256, device list + stream allocation via
IoT Cloud API, RTSP/HLS URL from allocate endpoint
- Uniview: HTTP Basic against LightAPI, channel enumeration via
/LAPI/V1.0/Channels, RTSP per channel
- TP-Link: no cloud API, direct RTSP + TCP port probe for testing
DB: cloud_accounts table (SQLite migration) for storing encrypted
credentials per vendor per tenant.
Admin UI for account management TODO — provider framework + DB ready.
Smart URL actions: multi-step browser automation for web cells behind
login pages. Steps: navigate, fill (form fields), click, wait, wait_for
(element selector), javascript (raw eval). Passwords in fill steps
encrypted with per-kiosk key for transport.
Schema: server/src/schemas/wire/smart-url.ts defines step types.
Stored in layout_cells.options.smart_url (no migration needed).
Bundle: includes smart_url config per cell. Fill step values encrypted
at bundle generation time with per-kiosk key (or cluster key fallback).
Kiosk: execute_smart_url_steps() builds an async JS sequence from the
steps and injects via WebKit evaluate_javascript on LoadEvent::Finished.
Supports session expiry detection via login_detect_url.
Admin UI: step builder TODO (currently configure via cell options JSON).
Data model + kiosk execution + bundle transport are complete.
Three new Node-RED trigger nodes in BetterFrame Triggers palette:
bf-trigger-motion (red) — fires on MotionAlarm, CellMotionDetector,
VideoAnalytics/Motion, FieldDetector topics. Outputs msg.active
(true/false) for motion start/stop. Camera ID filter optional.
bf-trigger-anpr (blue) — fires on LicensePlateRecognition, Plate,
ANPR, LPR, NumberPlate topics. Extracts msg.plate (string) and
msg.confidence (number) from vendor-specific payload fields
(Hikvision PlateNumber, Dahua plateNumber, etc.). Camera ID filter.
bf-trigger-event (green) — generic catch-all. Topic substring filter
+ camera ID filter. Outputs msg.source + msg.data as key-value objects
parsed from ONVIF SimpleItems. Use for line crossing, intrusion,
digital input, tamper, audio detection, or any unknown topic.
Server side: ONVIF events (source_type=onvif) now additionally forward
to the fixed onvif.event route so all three nodes receive events without
needing per-topic Node-RED route registration.
BF_DB=postgres + BF_PG_URL activates the PgAdapter path. Service-store
detects driver, creates PgAdapter with connection pool, runs
TENANT_MIGRATIONS from migrations-pg.ts, tracks version in
schema_migrations table.
docker-compose.coolify.yml gains a postgres service (postgres:17-alpine)
behind the "postgres" profile — disabled by default. Set BF_DB=postgres
in Coolify env to activate. Server env auto-constructs BF_PG_URL from
BF_PG_USER/PASSWORD/DB vars.
SQLite remains default — no change for existing deployments.
OS bundle download was buffering 1.2GB in RAM then writing → network
timeout or memory pressure killed it. Now:
Kiosk side:
- Streams directly to /var/tmp/betterframe/ in 256KB chunks
- On network error: resumes from last byte written (Range header)
- Up to 5 retries with 10s backoff between attempts
- Progress logged every ~50MB
- sha256 verified on the complete file on disk (not in memory)
Server side:
- /api/kiosk/os/download/:id supports Range: bytes=N- header
- Returns 206 Partial Content with Content-Range for resume
- streamBundle accepts start/end for partial reads via createReadStream
- Advertises Accept-Ranges: bytes on all responses
Replaces shared cluster_key for bundle encryption. Each kiosk gets a
unique 32-byte AES key generated at pairing time:
Server:
- confirmPairing generates randomBytes(32), stores encrypted with
server secret on kiosks.encrypt_key_encrypted column
- Delivers plaintext encrypt_key to kiosk in claim response (one-time)
- generateBundle prefers per-kiosk key over cluster_key for
encryptForCluster (same AES-256-GCM format, different key per kiosk)
Kiosk:
- ClaimResp gains encrypt_key field, stored encrypted at rest
- onvif_events prefers encrypt_key over cluster_key for decryption
- Backward compatible: old kiosks without encrypt_key still use
cluster_key (both delivered at pairing)
Security improvement: compromised SD card only exposes camera passwords
encrypted for THAT specific kiosk, not the entire fleet. Rotate by
deleting + re-pairing the compromised kiosk.
WebView "URL can't be shown" — Authorization header only applies to
the initial page load. CSS/JS/XHR/WebSocket sub-resources from the
loaded page don't inherit it → Angie auth_request rejects → page breaks.
Kiosk side: set_kiosk_cookie() injects betterframe_kiosk_key cookie
into WebKit's cookie jar via JS bridge before loading the URL. Cookie
persists across all sub-resource requests automatically.
Server side: extractBearerToken() now checks betterframe_kiosk_key
cookie as fallback when no Authorization header present. Same
verifyKioskKey path, just different transport.
Full ONVIF event management overhaul:
DB: cameras gain event_source (auto|server|kiosk:<id>), event_sink
(auto|server|kiosk:<id>), and supported_event_topics (JSON array).
Server:
- GetEventProperties SOAP call in onvif.ts — queries camera for all
supported event topics (motion, ANPR, line crossing, etc.)
- POST /admin/cameras/:id/refresh-events route — runs GetEventProperties
via designated event source (kiosk WS relay or server direct)
- Camera edit form: event_source + event_sink dropdowns
- Camera detail: supported event topics table with refresh button
- Bundle includes event_source + event_sink so kiosk knows its role
Kiosk:
- onvif_events.rs respects event_source: only subscribes when "auto"
or "kiosk:<this_id>", skips when "server"
- Subscription status tracking: state (subscribing/active/failed),
last_event_at, error — reported in heartbeat for admin visibility
- BundleCamera gains event_source + event_sink fields
Auto logic for source: camera in kiosk's bundle → kiosk subscribes.
Auto logic for sink: TODO — same-subnet detection for WSBaseNotification.
Currently PullPoint only; push model is the next step.
Previous generator packed 5 fields in the image chunk header but Xcursor
format needs 9 (header_size, type, nominal, version, w, h, xhot, yhot,
delay). Missing version field → malformed → wlroots ignored it → fell
back to default visible cursor. Now writes correct 68-byte Xcursor with
all 9 header fields. Added more cursor names (x_cursor, pirate, sides).
Also: terminal UI shows bash-style cwd$ prompt, separates command from
output visually, auto-detects pwd after each command for prompt update.
Kiosk side (remote_debug.rs + ws_client.rs refactor):
- Journal streaming: server sends journal-start → kiosk spawns
journalctl -f, pipes lines back as journal-line messages via WS.
journal-stop kills the process. On-demand, not always-on.
- Terminal: server sends terminal-request → kiosk checks lockout +
firmware_channel == "dev" → generates 8-char code displayed on
screen as fullscreen overlay (NOT logged) → server relays admin's
code via terminal-auth → kiosk validates with constant-time compare
→ on success spawns bash, relays I/O as base64 terminal-data.
- Lockout: 3 failed codes per boot → lockout_count++. 3 lockouts
(9 total failures) → permanent (reflash only). Reboot resets
attempt counter, not lockout counter. Successful pairing resets all.
- ws_client.rs rewritten with split reader/writer + tokio::select!
for multiplexing incoming WS messages with outbound journal/terminal
data from sync threads.
Server side (coordinator-ws + routes-admin):
- New admin debug WS endpoint: /ws/admin/debug/:kioskId. Authenticated
via admin API key (query param) or session cookie. Relays messages
bidirectionally between admin browser ↔ kiosk.
- Admin pages: /admin/kiosks/:id/logs (journal viewer with start/
stop/clear) and /admin/kiosks/:id/terminal (code entry + terminal
area). Both open in new tabs from the kiosk detail page.
- Angie proxy config updated with /ws/admin/debug/ location block.
Security:
- Terminal only on dev channel
- Code displayed physically on screen, never logged or stored server-side
- Lockout: 3/boot, 3 lockouts = permanent, pairing resets
- Kiosk responds "locked" without specifying which lockout triggered
importDiscoveredCamera was hardcoded to type="rtsp", losing ONVIF
identity. Camera edit showed RTSP fields, ONVIF event subscription
skipped (checks cam_type=="onvif"), re-discovery impossible.
Now creates type="onvif" with onvif_host/port/username/password stored
on the camera row. Streams still go into camera_streams (unchanged).
Bundle ships onvif fields → kiosk subscribes to PullPoint events.
Also passes host + port as hidden form fields from discover results
page so the add handler has them available. Basic manual camera
creation via UI stays rtsp-only (simpler); discovery flow produces
onvif type.
Coolify pulls from GitHub and runs docker compose build — no guaranteed
env vars like SOURCE_COMMIT. Previous approach relied on ARG/ENV
passthrough that silently defaulted to "dev".
Fix: install git in the builder stage, COPY .git into context, run
git describe --tags --always to derive the version, write it to
/app/server/.bf-version. version.ts reads this file as a fallback
between env vars and the "dev" literal.
Chain: BF_SERVER_VERSION env → BF_BUILD_VERSION env → .bf-version file
→ COOLIFY_GIT_COMMIT env → SOURCE_COMMIT env → "dev".
Also: fix .gitignore for rauc-signing/ (was under wrong path).
Use hx-retarget/hx-reswap response headers to replace full grid
when cell dimensions change (overlap resolution may move other cells).
Single-cell swap when only content fields change.
Camera edit page gains a "Live Events" panel that auto-refreshes every
5s via htmx. Shows last 20 events for this camera from event_log:
topic, source type, timestamp, and raw payload JSON. Surfaces ALL
ONVIF topics including unknown ones — if a camera produces an event
type we haven't seen before, it shows up here immediately.
queryEvents gains camera_id + source_type filters. Route
GET /admin/cameras/:id/events returns an HTML fragment with the event
table rows.
Replace naive per-cell shift with iterative overlap resolver. When any
cell grows (direction expand, dim/delta resize, or cell edit with new
spans), all overlapping cells get pushed along the expansion axis, with
cascading to prevent pushed cells from overlapping each other.
Fixes: expanding left block goes under right block instead of pushing it.
- Bake @flowfuse/node-red-dashboard into Node-RED Docker image
- Fire-and-forget syncDashboardsFromNodered() on GET /admin/entities
so dashboard tabs appear without manual sync button click
Adds Clone Layout button to layout edit page. Duplicates the layout
with all cells, label bindings, and display attachments. Name gets
"(copy)" suffix with dedup.
New kiosk/src/onvif_events.rs: for each ONVIF camera in the bundle,
creates a PullPoint subscription, polls every 3s, parses
NotificationMessage XML into structured JSON (topic + source key/values
+ data key/values + timestamp), and POSTs to /api/kiosk/event with
source_type=onvif + camera_id.
Forwards ALL event topics: motion, ANPR (LicensePlateRecognition),
line crossing, intrusion, digital input, analytics, tamper — everything
the camera exposes. Node-RED sorts what matters.
Subscription lifecycle:
- CreatePullPointSubscription with 60s InitialTerminationTime
- Renew every 55s before timeout
- Unsubscribe on bundle change / shutdown
- Auto-resubscribe on pull/renew failure (30s backoff)
- Generation tracking via Weak<()> so old workers self-terminate
when start() is called with a new bundle
WSSE PasswordDigest auth for SOAP calls — same scheme the server's
onvif.ts uses. sha1 crate added.
BundleCamera extended with onvif_host/port/username/password_encrypted
fields (server already ships them; kiosk just wasn't deserializing).
Gated by BF_ENABLE_ONVIF_EVENTS=1. Enabled by default in the pi-gen
image env file.
TODO: cluster-key-based decryption of onvif_password_encrypted. For
now relies on the RTSP URI having plaintext credentials embedded (which
the ONVIF import path already ensures via rtspWithCredentials).
Two fixes:
1. When admin renames a camera, the linked entity's name now syncs
automatically so the entity list doesn't drift from the camera list.
2. ONVIF discovery now calls GetDeviceInformation before GetProfiles
(best-effort, catches auth-gated devices). Pulls Manufacturer + Model
and uses the combined string as the camera's proposed name instead of
the raw IP. E.g. "Hikvision DS-2CD2146G2" instead of "192.168.74.8".
Falls back to host IP when the device omits the info.
Camera edit page now shows a "Kiosk Subscriptions" table: every kiosk
whose layouts reference this camera, which specific layout names, and
whether the camera is in the kiosk's active layout (green "active"
badge) or just bundled (gray "bundled" badge).
Snapshot route switched from listKiosksRenderingCamera (active-only)
to listKiosksWithCameraInBundle (any layout). The kiosk's LAN endpoint
opens a one-shot RTSP connection from its own network position even when
the camera isn't on screen — no warm pipeline needed. Server falls back
to direct pull only when NO kiosk has the camera in any layout at all.
Every column + table added inside an already-passed PRAGMA user_version
entry is re-created here with IF NOT EXISTS / addColumnIfNotExists so
existing deploys finally pick them up:
- kiosks: reported_hostname, network_interfaces_json
- kiosks: os_update_channel, os_update_target_version, os_update_last_*
- kiosks: managed_image, managed_config_*
- displays: active_layout_id
- os_update_releases table + indices
- os_update_rollouts table + indices
Rule going forward: NEVER add columns/tables inside existing migration
entries. Always append a NEW entry at the end of the MIGRATIONS array.
New module kiosk/src/at_rest.rs. Derives an AES-256-GCM key via HKDF
from a Pi-bound value:
1. /proc/device-tree/serial-number (Pi 5 firmware exposes it)
2. /proc/cpuinfo Serial line (older kernels)
3. /etc/machine-id (non-Pi dev fallback)
File format: "BFE1" magic || 12-byte random nonce || ciphertext+tag.
Atomic write via tempfile + rename so a crash mid-write can't leave a
half-encrypted file.
Wired into kiosk/src/server.rs at every file I/O touching sensitive
state:
- kiosk.key (bearer token to BF server)
- local.key (LAN-side API auth key)
- bundle.json (cached bundle with RTSP credentials in URL form)
Migration: read paths tolerate legacy plaintext (kiosks upgraded from a
pre-at_rest build) AND re-store as ciphertext on the first read. One-
shot upgrade — subsequent boots skip the migration write.
Threat model defended: SD card extraction. Attacker who pulls the card
can't decrypt without also having the same physical Pi (CPU serial is
hardware-bound). Doesn't defeat an attacker who has both — at that
point they ARE the kiosk. Bar is raised from "trivially extract every
camera password" to "must steal the device intact."
Not defended: TPM-style attestation, remote attestation, sealed boot.
Pi 5 has no TPM and we don't ship a secure-boot config.
Tests in-module: round-trip short bytes, round-trip JSON, legacy
plaintext passthrough.
Mirrors the kiosk-firmware admin shape one-for-one against OS RAUC
bundles:
/admin/os-updates release list, yank
/admin/os-updates/rollouts rollout list + create
/admin/os-updates/rollouts/:id/state pause/resume/complete
/admin/kiosks/:id/os-update per-kiosk channel + pin
Templates: OsUpdatePage, OsUpdateRolloutsPage, KioskOsUpdatePanel.
KioskOsUpdatePanel is rendered next to the existing KioskFirmwarePanel
on the kiosk detail page so OS + app state sit side-by-side. The
"how bundles get here" sidebar on the list page documents the four
GitHub secrets needed (signing cert/key + autoimport URL/key) so a
new operator doesn't have to dig through scripts/ to find them.
Nav gains an OS Updates entry between Firmware and Labels. Activates
on activeNav="os-updates".
Repo + import endpoint already existed (audit confirmed earlier). All
admin routes use them as-is.
When admin opens an entity preview, find a kiosk whose active layout
references the camera (new repo.listKiosksRenderingCamera). Probe each
candidate's LAN snapshot endpoint with a 4s timeout. On success, stream
the bytes back with x-bf-snapshot-source: kiosk:<id>. Falls through to
the existing server-direct ffmpeg/gst pull only when no kiosk is reachable
or has the camera in its active layout.
Kiosk side adds /local/snapshot/:camera_id?key=<local_key>. Spawns a
one-shot gst-launch (rtspsrc → decodebin → jpegenc ! filesink
num-buffers=1) on a blocking worker so axum's reactor stays free.
Prefers sub stream for snapshots to keep bandwidth low. Single-frame
pipeline tears down after the first JPEG.
LAN IP picking extracted to shared/kiosk-lan.ts so route handler and
KioskLocalPanel agree on which interface to talk to (the previously-
duplicated logic in admin-pages stays for now since it also renders the
interface list).
Why a parallel pipeline instead of teeing the warm one: cross-thread
gtk4paintablesink → appsink sample extraction is non-trivial. A 1-frame
parallel pull is cheap when the kiosk's RTSP session to that camera is
already known to work (precondition: it's in the active layout).
Kiosk's layout.changed events now bump displays.active_layout_id on the
server side. Display edit page and kiosk edit page render the currently-
active layout, and the "Switch Layout" dropdowns pre-select it (with
"(active)" suffix) instead of defaulting to first-in-list. Stops the
operator from accidentally re-switching to the layout already showing.
Migration is idempotent + tail-positioned so existing DBs pick up the
column without breaking PRAGMA user_version semantics.
Replacing a kiosk now sanity-checks the incoming device:
- hardware_model must match (Pi 5 swapping in for Pi 5, not Pi 3)
- managed_image flag must match (don't silently switch BYO-OS ↔ image)
- capabilities can narrow legitimately but a "lost capabilities" diff is
surfaced anyway so the operator notices.
Mismatch raises an error listing what changed; "Force replace" checkbox
on the pair form bypasses for legitimate hardware upgrades. Pending codes
panel also now renders proposed_name / hw_model / capabilities /
managed-image badge so the operator can eyeball the inbound device
before picking a replace target.
cpu_load_percent + memory/disk columns were silently added inline to the
hwmon migration entry, but PRAGMA user_version had already passed that
index for existing deploys → ALTER never ran → replaceKioskKey and
heartbeat hit "no such column: cpu_load_percent" on upgrade. Append a
tail migration that addColumnIfNotExists for each. Lesson: never mutate
an existing migration entry; always append a new one.
ONVIF cams legitimately have multiple streams (main+sub) stored in
camera_streams. Dropping the type gate synthesized a single "main"
row for ONVIF cams that lacked rows, hiding the multi-stream design
the kiosk's pick_stream relies on (area >= 0.2 → main, else sub).
The "(no stream)" symptom is a partial-import bug to chase separately;
the bundle fallback is for single-URL RTSP cams only. Also drop the
backfill migration that did the same insert at the DB layer.
ONVIF-imported cameras with rtsp_url but no camera_streams rows showed
"(no stream)" in the kiosk because the bundle fallback was gated to
type=rtsp only. Drop the type check + backfill existing rows so old
imports get a main stream row created.
feat(kiosk-mgmt): report hostname + all network interfaces
Behind Docker/Angie the server only saw the proxy bridge IP (172.31.0.2).
Kiosk now shells `ip -j addr show`, reports every non-loopback IPv4/v6
with CIDR, MAC, and operstate. Plus `hostname` for verifying that
managed-config applies landed. Admin UI renders interface list with
LAN IPs preferred for the copy-paste local-LAN endpoint.
feat(managed-config): auto-sync hostname from kiosk name
When admin renames a managed-image kiosk, slugify the name → DNS-safe
hostname and bump managed_config_version so the kiosk applies it on
next heartbeat. Empty form hostname now falls back to slug too, so
DHCP shows the friendly name.
feat(events): forward firmware + OS update outcomes as kiosk.log
Kiosk POSTs `/api/kiosk/event` with topic=kiosk.log on firmware-apply
attempts. Server-side firmware/os-update endpoints also insert into
event_log so admins can audit upgrades without correlating per-source.
Wire schema heartbeat gains reported_hostname + network_interfaces for
Rust import parity.
Kiosks running our pre-built image (managed_image=true at pairing) can
have their hostname, timezone, network (DHCP/static + VLAN), and Wi-Fi
configured from the admin UI. Pull-model: server stores desired-state
JSON, kiosk heartbeat returns pending_config when version exceeds
applied_version, kiosk echoes applied_version back. Wi-Fi PSK encrypted
with the cluster key so ciphertext at rest is shipped to the kiosk
without per-kiosk re-encryption.
Server side only — kiosk Rust applier (betterframe-apply-config helper
+ rollback timer) and pair-initiate marker file are next.
ci(pi-gen): use action's image-path output for asset upload
pi-gen writes the .img.xz into pi-gen-action's own working dir, not our
repo deploy/. Glob never matched. Use steps.pigen.outputs.image-path
directly — no glob needed.
Adds aggressive normalisation to tryParsePrivateKey:
- Strip UTF-8 BOM
- Replace smart quotes (" " ' ') with ASCII
- Strip multiple layers of wrapping quotes
- Combine escape-unfold with quote-strip (env vars that quote AND escape)
- Strip whitespace inside base64 candidate before decode
On parse failure, dumps length + head/tail samples + first-byte hex so
the operator can spot exactly what shape the env var arrived in.
Coolify / docker compose env injection routinely strips real newlines or
wraps in quotes, causing createPrivateKey to throw ERR_OSSL_UNSUPPORTED
and crashing the server before it can even start.
tryParsePrivateKey now attempts: literal, \n→LF, CRLF→LF, quote-stripped,
base64-decoded, and single-line PEM re-wrapped to 64-col. On total
failure, logs a clear warning and falls back to on-disk / generated key
instead of crashing.
Kiosk now exposes :18090 with two surfaces:
- GET /local/layout/:id?key=<kiosk_local_key>
Bookmark-friendly layout switch on this kiosk. Auth = kiosk-generated
local key (32 random bytes, hex, stored at <state_dir>/local.key).
- ANY /proxy/* — forwards to BF server with the request's Authorization
header preserved. Lets LAN clients reach a cloud-hosted BF server via
the kiosk's local socket; kiosk adds no auth of its own.
Heartbeat reports {local_key, local_port}; kiosks table grows
local_key/local_port/local_last_ip columns. Admin kiosk edit page now
shows the local URLs as a copy-paste block.
Override port: BF_KIOSK_LOCAL_PORT. Disable: BF_KIOSK_LOCAL_DISABLE=1.
Three related fixes:
1. Idle reverts (and any other kiosk-initiated layout switch) now POST
layout.changed to /api/kiosk/event. Previously the server only emitted
on admin-initiated switches, so Node-RED never saw the idle revert.
2. Server's /api/kiosk/event splays the payload to the top level when
the topic has a dedicated trigger node (layout.changed, kiosk.changed,
kiosk.status, display.power.changed, camera.changed). The trigger
nodes expect flat shapes matching the admin emit; the old wrapped
shape left every field undefined.
3. Auto-provisioning of bf-server-config in Node-RED: extend retry
window to ~5 min, log per attempt, force v2 API + full-deploy header
so credentials inline get accepted, surface response body on failure.
Kiosk heartbeat reports local display positions so the server can sync physical outputs without consuming global display indices.
Migrate displays.index away from global uniqueness because display numbering is only meaningful within a kiosk.
Server mints a dedicated admin API key on first boot (persisted plaintext
encrypted in setup_state.extras) and POSTs a bf-server-config node into
Node-RED's flow graph via /nrdp/flows. Idempotent — skips if any
bf-server-config already exists, so user-owned configs win.
New admin-http config 'selfUrl' (defaults to http://127.0.0.1:18080)
tells Node-RED how to reach the BF server. Docker compose sets it to
http://server:18080 so requests stay inside the compose network.
is_enabled column on displays (default 1). Disabled displays are filtered
from the kiosk bundle so the kiosk never opens a window on them. Admin
edit page exposes a checkbox; list page shows a "disabled" badge.
Trigger nodes now self-contained inputs (inputs:0):
- Each registers POST /api/internal/<topic> on RED.httpNode
- Angie returns 404 for any /api/* not whitelisted (kiosk/pair/admin)
so external requests cannot trigger BF nodes
- Server bridge POSTs direct to nodered container (bypasses Angie)
- nodered-bridge.ts updated to use /api/internal/<topic>
- 6 trigger nodes converted: display-power, layout-changed,
kiosk-changed, camera-changed, status, kiosk-camera-event
- Optional per-node filters (display_id, kiosk_id, camera_id)
- close handler removes only this node's route layer
- bf-status: query kiosk state by ID via /api/admin/kiosks/:id
- bf-trigger-status: dedicated heartbeat-only topic kiosk.status
(skips connect/disconnect noise from kiosk.changed)
- bf-snapshot: GET /admin/entities/:id/snapshot as Buffer for
motion → email/telegram flows
- coordinator-ws now forwards both kiosk.changed (event=heartbeat)
AND kiosk.status on every status message
Action buttons that don't need a redirect now use hx-post:
- Kiosk power (wake/standby), fan (auto/off/50%/full)
- Kiosk switch-layout dropdown
- Kiosk GPIO delete (row swap-out)
- Camera labels add/remove (list re-render)
- Kiosk labels add/remove (list re-render)
- Display attach/detach layout (list re-render)
Server routes return HTML fragments via isHtmxRequest() check,
otherwise still 302 redirect for direct-URL access.
Forms that legitimately redirect (create/edit/delete, auth flows)
stay as standard form posts.
- Dockerfile.server: RUN npm run build during builder stage so the
image ships pre-compiled lib/ + bsb-plugin.json. Runtime image also
installs ffmpeg (for camera snapshot endpoint).
- DisplayEditPage Show buttons + Switch dropdown now use hx-post
with hx-swap=none — no page reload, just fires the command.
Multi-display:
- Bundle ships displays[] each with own layouts + idle/sleep
- Rust kiosk creates one ApplicationWindow per gdk monitor
- Per-display state (layout, idle, sleep) via HashMap
- WARM_CAMERAS pool shared across displays
- Backward-compat top-level display/layouts still emitted
System Health (/admin/health):
- Online status, CPU temp (color-coded), fan RPM/PWM
- Bundle version mismatch detection
- 30s auto-refresh
Camera snapshot/test:
- shared/snapshot.ts: ffmpeg/gst-launch fallback, 5s timeout
- /admin/entities/:id/snapshot returns JPEG
- EntityEditPage shows live preview with Refresh
GPIO (Pi buttons/sensors):
- kiosk_gpio_bindings table + CRUD admin UI
- Bundle ships gpio_bindings[]
- kiosk/src/gpio.rs with gpiod crate, worker thread per pin
- Edge events POST to /api/kiosk/event with source_type=gpio
Layout switch fixes:
- GET aliases added so direct URL hits work
- New /admin/displays/:displayId/layout/:layoutId for multi-display
- DisplayEditPage gets "Switch Layout Now" section
Node-RED embed:
- /admin/nodered renders iframe at /nrdp/
- Sandbox attrs allow scripts/forms/popups
- Sidebar link now opens embedded view
Bind native backend services and Node-RED to loopback so Angie remains the public auth boundary. Keep Docker on an internal compose network and stop kiosk fallback to a layout when display default is none.
Entities:
- New entities table — id, name, type (camera|html|web), camera_id,
html_content, web_url
- Auto-create entity per camera on createCamera
- Layout cells reference entity_id (replaces inline content_type/
camera_id/html_content/web_url)
- Bundle resolves entities back to legacy cell fields for kiosk compat
(Rust kiosk unchanged)
- Full CRUD: /admin/entities, /admin/entities/new, /admin/entities/:id
- Cell editor: single entity dropdown with type badges
ONVIF discovery:
- /admin/cameras/discover — host/port/user/pass form
- Server queries ONVIF device, lists profiles with name/resolution/
encoding/framerate
- "Add" creates camera + main stream from chosen profile
- shared/onvif.ts: minimal SOAP+UsernameToken+PasswordDigest client
(no external dep)
- Camera new form simplified to RTSP-only with discover link
- shared/nodered-bridge.ts: fire-and-forget POST to Node-RED HTTP-in
- api-http: kiosk event endpoint now forwards to Node-RED at /in/<topic>
- Best-effort, never blocks. 3s timeout, warn on failure.
- sec-config: noderedUrl on api-http (defaults to http://127.0.0.1:1880)
Node-RED flows can attach http-in nodes at /in/<topic> to receive
camera motion, GPIO events, etc. Inbound commands (Node-RED → server)
go through the admin API with admin Bearer token (no new endpoints
needed for v0.1).
Rust kiosk:
- web cells now use webkit6 WebView (load_uri)
- html cells use WebView.load_html (full HTML rendering)
- query_displays() reads /sys/class/drm/ for connected HDMI/DP outputs
- Heartbeat reports display geometry every 60s
Server:
- /api/kiosk/heartbeat accepts displays array
- Syncs kiosk-reported displays to display records
- Updates dimensions when changed, creates new displays for new ports
UI improvements:
- Click cell → htmx swaps in edit form inside the cell (no page reload)
- Cancel re-fetches cell in read mode
- Save returns updated cell HTML, htmx swaps it
- Edit form includes Width/Height inputs for col_span/row_span
- Inline +W/-W/+H/-H buttons on each cell for quick resize
- Add (+) and delete (×) buttons also htmx — only the grid swaps
Routes:
- GET /admin/layouts/:id/cells/:cellId — cell fragment (read mode)
- GET /admin/layouts/:id/cells/:cellId/edit — cell fragment (edit mode)
- POST /admin/layouts/:id/cells/:cellId/resize — adjust span by delta
- All cell ops return fragment if hx-request header present, else 302
All mutations trigger notifyKiosks() — kiosks live-update via WS.
