Server bridge was forwarding to raw topic paths that no Node-RED node
listens on. Now forwards to fixed routes: camera.event, onvif.event,
onvif.motion, onvif.anpr — matching what trigger nodes register.
ONVIF XML parser now extracts Key section SimpleItems (PlateNumber,
etc.) into the data map alongside Data section items. Previously only
parsed Source and Data, missing Key-section fields like plate numbers.
Node-RED trigger nodes: camera_id filter changed from Number() to
String() comparison for UUIDv7 compatibility.

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.
RED.httpNode.post registers a raw express route with no body parser, so
req.body was undefined and trigger payloads showed all fields null. Add
a zero-dep readJsonBody helper that streams + parses req body.
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
