The boxed-card look reads as "still a website" once the app is
running full-screen off the home screen. Scoped to
display-mode: standalone so the regular browser-tab view is
untouched; dialog-internal cards keep their box since they group
subsections of one form rather than acting as page furniture.
Adds a web manifest, hand-drawn cup+frame icons, and a presence-only
service worker (no offline caching) so mobile browsers offer
"Add to Home Screen" for the server UI.
The server now records exactly what was last sent to the device on
every device-facing render (/frame/image, /frame/advance, /frame/back,
and the global hold actions), persisted as Frame.last_displayed_image/
_at and served back via GET /api/frames/{id}/now-displaying. The
header thumbnail is split into that frozen "now displaying" snapshot
and the existing live "up next" re-render, with an arrow between them
-- so editing a layout shows the change immediately on the right while
the left stays exactly what's actually on the panel until the device's
next real wake.
update_available only compared the latest Gitea release against what's
staged, not what the frame is actually running -- so once a release
was staged (manually or via auto-update) but the frame hadn't woken up
and applied it yet, "Check now" reported "Up to date" even though the
device was still on the old version. Report the frame's actual running
version and use it to show a distinct "staged, applies on next wake"
message instead.
Next/back button assignment moves from a frame-level "Button
assignments" card into each widget's own gear-icon dialog, prefilled
with a sane default at creation (photos/calendar -> advance/back,
whiteboard/weather -> check_now, others -> none). At most one binding
per (widget, button) now -- cross-widget execution order never
mattered since each widget's action only touches its own state.
New firmware capability: holding NEXT or BACK past a configurable
duration (min 3s, server-side default) triggers a frame-wide action
instead of the per-widget short-press one -- cycling saved layouts,
refreshing all widgets, or freezing/unfreezing every photo widget (see
app/global_actions.py). Firmware next/back checks gain the same
hold-duration polling the combo button already had; the threshold
comes from the previous wake's /frame/config fetch (persisted in NVS),
since this wake's button decision happens before that request.
Not done here: firmware/version.txt is intentionally left unbumped --
this hasn't been built or hardware-tested (no ESP-IDF toolchain in this
environment), so no firmware release build should be triggered yet.
A "Lock this photo" button in the photos widget's dialog toggles
PhotoWidgetConfig.locked, which suppresses both the timer-elapsed
auto-advance and the advance/back button actions until unlocked. The
Layout tab canvas shows a lock badge on any locked photo widget's box.
A Widget-level property (border_style/border_thickness/border_color_index),
not a per-type config field, since every widget type can have one -- drawn
once centrally in device.py's _render_widgets before compositing, using
an exact panel palette color so it never dithers. Styles: solid, dashed,
dotted, and a fancy double-line picture-frame-mat look. Configurable from
a shared "Border" card in every widget's gear-icon dialog.
Shows Frame.battery_percent/battery_as_of, already set by every device
wake-on-battery report, plus routers/common.py's existing
battery_estimate_s time-remaining estimate -- nothing new to fetch or
cache. Compact (icon + percent) or detailed (+ estimate, last report
age) display mode. No button actions.
New widget type with four display modes -- current conditions, an
hourly forecast strip, a multi-day forecast, and several cities' current
day side by side -- backed by a pluggable provider registry (app/weather/,
mirroring the app/widgets/ dispatch pattern): Open-Meteo (worldwide) and
NWS (US-only) both wired up now, Environment Canada documented as the
next one to add given its more involved station/grid-lookup API.
The calendar widget's existing embedded weather strip is untouched and
still Open-Meteo-only; this lifts the same underlying icon-drawing
primitives (now shared via app/weather_render.py, calendar_render.py
still imports draw_weather_row unchanged) into a widget that can be
placed and sized on its own. Icons are redrawn in the panel's actual ink
colors (yellow sun/bolt, blue rain/snow) instead of flat black, and
build_multi_city's icon/font sizing now scales with how many cities need
to fit rather than the box's height alone -- both fixed after catching
them via live browser verification, along with a mode-switch cache-shape
crash and a mobile-width dialog overflow.
New WeatherWidgetConfig table (migration 24), grid footprint, widget
module, common.py fetch/cache helper, router endpoints (location set/
clear, city add/remove, preview), dialog template + JS, and full test
coverage (providers, widget render, HTTP endpoints, migration replay).
docs/widgets.md and CLAUDE.md's TODO updated accordingly.
Six more vendored families alongside the existing Noto Sans (Inter,
Source Sans 3, Noto Serif, Crimson Text, Arvo, IBM Plex Mono -- sans/
serif/slab/mono variety), all OFL-licensed with their own per-family
license file in app/fonts/ since each has a different copyright holder.
Static Regular/Bold/Italic/BoldItalic builds only -- variable-font-only
families (Inter and Source Sans's current Google Fonts releases, plus
Playfair Display/Lora/Merriweather) were skipped in favor of static
builds from their own upstream repos, keeping every family's loading
code uniform with what was already there. Considered but deliberately
left out: Georgia -- a proprietary Microsoft core font, not freely
redistributable, unlike everything else vendored here.
Also moves the bold/italic/underline/color toolbar below the
contenteditable box per request, and reorders the dialog's Settings
card to a more natural family-then-size order.
Fixes a latent migration bug this surfaced: migration 20 (static image
widget) used Base.metadata.create_all, which creates every table
declared in Base.metadata that's missing, not just its own new one --
harmless when nothing else pending, but once TextWidgetConfig existed
it would silently pre-create text_widget_configs (in whatever shape
models.py currently declares) before migration 21 got a turn, so
migration 21's own CREATE TABLE (or a later ALTER TABLE adding
font_family) would collide with a table create_all had already leaked
into existence. Both migrations 20 and 21 now use raw, frozen CREATE
TABLE SQL instead, matching migration 17's existing precedent for
exactly this reason.
A new self-contained widget type showing user-authored rich text -- no
live upstream to poll, like the static image widget, just word-wrapped
styled text instead of an uploaded image.
The dialog's contenteditable HTML is never stored or replayed as HTML:
app/text_content.py parses it server-side (on save) into a plain
paragraphs-of-styled-runs structure -- the actual sanitization
boundary, since raw HTML never round-trips back into any browser DOM
(the dialog rebuilds its editor from that same JSON via
createElement/textContent). app/widgets/text.py renders it with a
custom word-wrap/shrink-to-fit layout, using real vendored font weights
(app/fonts/NotoSans-{Regular,Bold,Italic,BoldItalic}.ttf, OFL-licensed
like the emoji fonts already there) rather than every other widget's
single ImageFont.load_default() -- the one widget type where that
distinction matters.
A new widget type showing a single user-uploaded image with no live
upstream to poll -- decoded once at upload time (PDF's first page via
pypdfium2, BSD-3-Clause/Apache-2.0, no copyleft exposure) into plain RGB
PNG bytes, then composed per a crop/stretch/letterbox display mode like
the photos widget.
Adds TaskWidgetConfig.name (migration 19, plain column add) shown at
the top of the widget on the actual panel instead of the hardcoded
"Tasks" header -- e.g. "Chores" or "Mom's list". The only widget type
with its own on-panel title at all, since it's the only one where
"which list is this" isn't already obvious from a calendar/photo/
whiteboard's own content.
Threaded through calendar_render's _draw_tasks/_build_tasks/
render_tasks/render_tasks_preview_png as a `title` param (default
"Tasks", truncated to fit -- a long custom name shouldn't be able to
overflow the widget's box), the config-save endpoint (tasks_name,
truncated server-side to a sane header length rather than rejected),
and a new "Settings" section in the tasks dialog.
Verified live in the browser: the name actually renders at the top of
the real composited panel (not just the dialog preview, which stays
gated on having a configured source), and persists correctly on both
desktop and mobile. Full suite (196 tests) passes.
Tasks widgets could only ever point at one CalDAV task list (a radio-
button picker, owner-only). Now they merge any number of included task
lists across every linked user, same checkbox-inclusion + optional
pinned-color shape a calendar widget already has for its calendars --
FrameTaskList mirrors FrameCalendar exactly, down to the same owner-
adds/anyone-mutes permission split (api_widget_task_list_select/
api_widget_task_list_color). Reused calendar_render._event_colors/
_draw_color_bar as-is for the per-task color bar -- a task dict's
owner_display_name/color_index is exactly that function's single-
source fallback shape.
Also added an opt-in "show tasks completed in the last 24 hours"
toggle (TaskWidgetConfig.show_completed): caldav_client.fetch_tasks
now accepts a completed_since cutoff and returns completed VTODOs
(with their completion time) instead of silently dropping them, and
_draw_tasks gives a completed task a filled checkbox + muted text
instead of the normal empty-box/due-date row.
Migration 18 splits the single-source TaskWidgetConfig columns
(added by 17, splitting tasks out of the calendar widget in the first
place) into frame_task_lists, carrying forward each widget's existing
single source as its first included list -- same shape migration 9
used carrying forward frame_calendars' old single opt-in.
Verified live in the browser (desktop + mobile): the new "Included
task lists" + "Recently completed" dialog sections, the show_completed
toggle actually persisting through a real HTTP round-trip, and no
regression in the calendar widget's own "Included calendars" dialog.
Full suite (192 tests, including new merge_tasks/config_save/migration
coverage) passes.
Task lists used to be a week-view-only sub-feature bolted onto calendar
widgets (CalendarWidgetConfig.tasks_*), so a task list could only exist
tied to a calendar's view and only inside its footprint. Tasks are now
a standalone widget type (TaskWidgetConfig, app/widgets/tasks.py) that
can be placed and sized independently, same as photos/calendar/
whiteboard -- no separate "enabled" flag either, since being on the
grid at all is the on/off switch, matching every other widget type.
Migration 17 creates task_widget_configs, extracts any existing
calendar widget's configured task source into a new sibling tasks
widget (auto-placed in open grid space, source dropped+logged if truly
none is left), then drops calendar_widget_configs' now-dead tasks_*
columns in the same migration -- this project's usual same-migration-
drop convention. Also handles the rarer case of a database jumping
straight from before the widget system existed to after this split in
one boot, via the legacy Frame.calendar_tasks_* columns.
Verified live in the browser at desktop and mobile widths: adding a
Tasks widget, its own dialog (task-list source picker + preview), and
confirming the calendar widget's dialog no longer mentions tasks at
all. Full test suite (180 tests, including new coverage for the widget
render/actions, the migration's data-extraction path, and the
permission-boundary shape for tasks-source) passes.
One request (DELETE /api/frames/{id}/widgets) removes every widget on
the frame in a single locked transaction, cascading their configs and
button-action bindings the same way single-widget delete already does.
Gated behind confirm() like the existing per-widget remove button, and
disabled when there's nothing to clear. Covered by the same owner/
unrelated-user/linked-but-not-controlling permission shape used
elsewhere (test_widget_placement.py).
Also fixes a real, pre-existing mobile bug this surfaced: the Layout
page's .layout grid used a bare `1fr` track on the <860px breakpoint
instead of `minmax(0, 1fr)` like the desktop rule already does, so a
wide enough descendant (previously nothing hit this; the new title-row
button did) would force the whole page into horizontal scroll on phone
widths. Verified before/after with the run-server driver's new
`viewport` command.
Clicking the small preview thumbnail now opens an enlarged version in
a dialog (fresh render, same as the old click-to-refresh), closable
via the X button or a backdrop click -- mirroring #widget-dialog's
existing pattern.
Two widgets of the same type (e.g. two Photos widgets) both showed up
as plain "Photos" with no way to tell which was which. The buttons API
now includes each widget's grid placement plus the frame's grid dims;
the UI derives a rough position ("top-left", "right", etc.) from that
and only appends a number+position suffix when a type actually
repeats on the frame, leaving the common single-widget-per-type case
unchanged.
Whiteboard rendering isn't fully reliable yet -- tag it (alpha)
everywhere it's user-facing (widget label, add-widget button, dialog
title, Settings' WebDAV section) via one shared WIDGET_LABELS map
(moved to common.js so both the Layout canvas and the new Configuration
tab section can use it).
Button assignments: a new "Button assignments" card on the
Configuration tab lets you assign an ordered list of (widget, action)
bindings to each physical NEXT/BACK button -- add/remove/reorder, all
autosaved. Backed by new GET/PUT /api/frames/{id}/buttons endpoints;
PUT replaces a button's whole list in one atomic, fully-validated call
rather than separate add/remove/reorder endpoints. Device-side
consumption already existed (routers/device.py's _run_button_actions);
this is the UI for what was previously only reachable via the default
migration mapping.
Small header thumbnail showing exactly what the frame is currently
displaying -- same widget compositor /frame/image uses, handed back as
a plain PNG (image_pipeline.render_panel/render_placeholder gain an
as_png option) instead of packed native-panel bytes. New session-authed
GET /api/frames/{id}/preview exposes it; click-to-refresh plus a slow
60s poll on the frame header so it doesn't hammer Immich/calendar
sources just for a header thumbnail.
showStatus() always wrote to the page-level #result div, which sits
behind a <dialog>'s backdrop -- a save inside a widget's gear-icon
dialog produced a message the user couldn't see without closing the
dialog first. It now prefers a .dialog-result element inside whichever
<dialog> is currently open, falling back to #result everywhere else.
The dialog is a flex column with its body scrolling independently so
.dialog-result stays pinned as a visible footer regardless of scroll
position -- otherwise a save message on a long form (e.g. the calendar
dialog) could land off-screen below the fold with no visible feedback
at all.
The dialog calls /albums via window.FRAME_API, but that's repointed to
this widget's own API base while a dialog is open (see frame_layout.js)
-- /albums is frame-level (lists the owner's whole Immich library, not
scoped to one photo widget), so it needs window.FRAME_BASE_API instead.
The button silently 404'd since the resulting URL never existed.
Replaces the Photos/Calendar/Whiteboard tabs with a single Layout page
(now the frame's landing route) where each widget gets a gear icon
opening a dialog scoped to that specific widget's own settings. This
was the missing piece for genuinely independent same-type widgets --
"the Calendar tab" never made sense once a frame could hold more than
one calendar widget with different settings.
Data layer: FrameCalendar re-keyed from frame_id to widget_id, so each
calendar widget has its own independent included-calendars set. The
rekey runs as an unconditional post-startup step (like the existing
widget backfill), not a numbered migration -- it depends on calendar
widgets already existing, which themselves come from that same
backfill step, not from schema migration. Registering it as a numbered
migration would have run it first during a real upgrade, silently
dropping every row; caught by a new test that exercises the raw-SQL
upgrade path instead of the fresh-install create_all() shortcut every
other migration test takes.
API layer: every endpoint that used to assume "the frame's widget of
this type" (photo queue/thumbnail/preview, calendar select/color/
tasks/weather, whiteboard source/browse/preview) moved into
api_widgets.py under /api/frames/{id}/widgets/{widget_id}/..., with a
new require_widget_view/control dependency pair mirroring the existing
frame-level ones. Device status (battery/last-seen/firmware) got its
own frame-level /status endpoint, split out of the old photo-specific
/queue it used to piggyback on -- fixes the status bar going silently
blank on any frame without a photo widget.
UI layer: each widget type's existing settings markup/JS was ported
into a dialog partial + an explicit init/close function pair (the
content is now fetched and injected on demand, not loaded at page load
time). window.FRAME_API is repointed to the open dialog's widget-scoped
API base for its duration and restored on close; a separate
window.FRAME_BASE_API stays stable for the always-present header/
status-bar scripts.
Caught during manual browser testing: the consolidated config-save
endpoint initially expected a JSON body while the copied-over dialog JS
posts form-urlencoded data (the old convention) -- fixed to match, with
new HTTP-level test coverage that would have caught it immediately.
The placement canvas sized itself with CSS aspect-ratio plus
percentage widths/heights on the widget boxes. aspect-ratio isn't
supported on every mobile browser this app gets viewed from, and
without it a percentage height on an absolutely-positioned child
collapses to 0 against an indeterminate-height ancestor -- the canvas
rendered with no visible size at all, just unstyled labels and
buttons floating in normal document flow. Confirmed working on
desktop, broken on the reporter's phone.
Canvas and widget-box geometry is now computed and applied in pixels
from JS (measuring the wrap's own width, deriving height from the
grid's row/col ratio), recalculated on window resize. Also gives
.widget-box's color-mix() background a plain-color fallback for the
same class of older-browser gap.
Adds the actual "Android home screen" placement experience: a new
Layout tab with a pointer-driven canvas for dragging/resizing widgets
and adding new ones from a type picker. Backed by a new
routers/api_widgets.py (create/move/delete), which re-validates
bounds, minimum footprint, and no-overlap server-side regardless of
what the client already checked. A widget added without an explicit
position lands in the first open space that fits it
(grid.find_open_rect), so users don't have to hunt for empty space
themselves.
Also fixes a real latent bug this surfaced: changing a frame's
orientation swaps the widget grid's long/short axis, which left
existing widget placements out of bounds on the new grid with no
render-time safeguard. Orientation changes now reset the layout to a
single full-panel widget (keeping the first widget's type, dropping
the rest), with a client-side confirm before it happens.
device.py's mode-keyed dispatch is replaced by a real compositor:
load a frame's widgets, compute pixel rects via app/grid.py, render
each through its widget module, and composite with render_panel.
Physical NEXT/BACK buttons now execute each frame's assigned
FrameButtonAction rows instead of one hardcoded per-mode action.
api_frames.py, manage.py, and common.py's build_manage_content are
repointed to read/write the frame's widget config rows instead of
the old Frame columns, and every settings page (Photos/Calendar/
Whiteboard tabs) now pre-fills its form from the same widget config
the write endpoints actually save to -- previously the read and
write sides would have silently diverged. The old mode selector and
photo-inlay checkbox are removed along with their now-inert wiring;
arbitrary widget placement subsumes what the fixed inlay split did.
Ships together with Phase 1 (per-type render/action modules) since
splitting the read/write cutover across deploys would have left
settings changes with no visible effect.
Whiteboard and tasks-source save/clear used to just tell the user to
reload the page to see the change. Both endpoints always assign a
successful "set" to the calling user, so the new state is fully known
client-side already -- rewrite the "Currently using/showing ..." block
in place instead, no server round trip or reload needed.
Also adds .gitea/workflows/firmware-build-check.yml: builds both board
variants (devkit, xiao) on every push touching firmware/**, unlike
firmware-release-build.yml which only builds on a version.txt bump.
Verified both builds succeed locally against the actual ESP-IDF
toolchain before wiring this in.
File picker: an optional WebDAV browse root in Settings
(User.webdav_base_url) plus a plain-PROPFIND directory listing
(webdav_client.list_directory) power a "Browse..." panel on a frame's
Whiteboard tab, so a file can be clicked into rather than typing its
exact WebDAV URL. Manual URL entry still works unchanged either way.
Force-refresh: get_or_refresh_whiteboard takes a force flag that skips
the fetch throttle entirely; the Whiteboard tab's refresh button now
passes it, so clicking it always re-fetches and re-renders instead of
possibly just re-showing the same cached image from within the last
~20 minutes.
New third mode alongside photos/calendar: fetches a .whiteboard file
over plain WebDAV (Basic auth -- generic, not Nextcloud-specific) and
renders it via a small Node.js sidecar using Excalidraw's own real
export code (@excalidraw/utils + @resvg/resvg-js, no headless browser),
since a .whiteboard file turns out to be Excalidraw scene JSON, not an
image. The sidecar runs as a second process inside this same container
(Dockerfile installs Node, start.sh backgrounds it before exec'ing
uvicorn) rather than a separate docker-compose service -- lightweight,
stateless, reachable only at 127.0.0.1 from the Python process, nothing
worth independently scaling.
The rendered PNG is treated exactly like a photo from there on --
composed/quantized through the existing image_pipeline (letterboxed,
never cropped) rather than a second parallel rendering pipeline.
WebDAV credentials support the common "it's actually the same Nextcloud
account as my CalDAV" case (an explicit opt-in checkbox, not silently
inferred) while still working with any WebDAV server generically.
Frame-level source (URL + owning account) follows the same owner-
controls-their-own-data permission split as calendar sources and the
week view's task list: only the account owner can point a frame at it,
anyone linked can clear it.
Honest limitation: this environment has no Node.js/npm, so
render-service/ is written carefully against each library's documented
API (verified via the npm registry, including transitive dependency
licenses after the CalDAV/AGPL surprise earlier this session) but has
never actually been executed. First real docker build is the first
true test -- see render-service/README.md.
Both are photos-specific settings (rotation order, how a photo's aspect
ratio gets reconciled with the panel), not device-wide configuration --
they belonged on the Photos tab next to the album/queue settings, not
Configuration. No backend change: both already save through the shared
partial-update /config endpoint regardless of which tab's form sends
them.
calendar_week_start's fixed-weekday anchor ("start on the most recent
Monday") stops making sense once the view isn't a literal calendar
week, so a non-7-day week view now starts calendar_week_start_offset
days from today instead (0 = starts today, negative/positive = past/
future) -- calendar_week_start still governs at the default 7 days,
unchanged.
Also hides the Calendar tab's week-only fields (days to show, layout,
start offset) unless View is actually set to Week, and further hides
the new start-offset field specifically when Days to show is 7 (where
it has no effect). "Week starts on" stays visible for Month too, since
it actually still applies there.
- Day count (2-10, was fixed at 7) -- 5 days trims the weekend clutter
without losing the grid format.
- Layout choice: days side by side (original behavior) or stacked
vertically as full agenda-style sections (reuses _draw_agenda_day,
same approach _build_today_tomorrow already used for a fixed 2 days).
- Optional task list (CalDAV VTODO collections only -- a plain ICS
subscription doesn't meaningfully have one) that takes the space of
one day slot instead of adding an extra one. Same owner-controls-
their-own-data permission split as calendar sources: only the
calendar's owner can point a frame's task list at it, but anyone
linked to the frame can clear it.
Browse-offset paging now moves by N days (was hardcoded to weeks),
identical to the old behavior when days=7. Changing the day count
resets the browse offset, same reasoning as changing views already did.
Each linked person can pin one of the panel's four non-black/white
colors (Yellow/Red/Blue/Green) to their own calendar instead of relying
on calendar_render.py's old auto-cycle-by-owner-name order -- owner-only,
like adding a calendar in the first place. Colors resolve against
whichever palette a frame actually renders with (including a custom
Advanced configuration override), so a pinned "Blue" stays this frame's
actual blue. Event color bars/dots are also bigger and rounded now
across agenda/week/month views, easier to tell apart at a glance.
Weather: multiple cities per frame, geocoded via Open-Meteo (no API
key), shown above the event list on agenda/today & tomorrow/week views
-- never month, no room for it there. Hand-drawn sun/cloud/rain/snow/
thunderstorm icons (no new font/icon asset, same primitives-only
approach the rest of calendar_render.py already uses). City geocoding
handles "City, State" qualifiers Open-Meteo's own search doesn't
(disambiguates same-named cities, e.g. the three "Portland"s).
CalDAV fix: events were never showing despite calendars discovering
fine, because fetch_calendar_events relied on the calendar-query
REPORT's server-side time-range filter, which real servers implement
inconsistently (confirmed against a real server, not just guessed --
reproduced locally with Radicale). Switched to fetching every event
unfiltered and doing all date-window filtering/expansion client-side,
same approach already used for plain ICS feeds.
Calendar rule/grid lines were light gray, which dithers away to
near-invisible on the 6-color e-ink palette -- now black.
CalDAV accounts (Nextcloud, Fastmail, iCloud, ...) can now be linked
alongside the existing single ICS subscription, since one account can
expose several calendars. A frame's Calendar tab now lists calendars
per person rather than one opt-in per person: your own row shows every
calendar you have available with a full add/remove toggle, while other
linked users' rows show only calendars they've included, toggleable
off (mute) but not on -- only a calendar's owner can add it to a
shared frame. FrameCalendar replaces the old single-boolean
UserFrame.calendar_included; existing opt-ins are migrated forward.
The old estimate used a single linear percent/second rate from the
current discharge cycle's battery_history, which resets to empty on
every recharge -- so "not enough data yet" kept showing up despite the
frame having plenty of history overall, and the rate it did compute was
tied to whatever refresh interval produced it (changing the interval
didn't move the estimate until enough new history accumulated under
the new setting).
Now pulls the last 100 rows from the permanent battery_log table
instead, and averages the *per-wake* percent drop (not per-second) --
recharge jumps are skipped rather than counted as negative drain,
flat/zero-drop wakes still count so the rate isn't overstated, and
more recent steps are weighted more heavily. The per-wake rate then
converts to wall-clock time using the frame's current
refresh_interval_s and quiet-hours settings, so halving the refresh
interval roughly halves the estimate immediately, and quiet hours
correctly stretches it out (fewer wakes/day at the same per-wake cost).
Frame name (pencil-icon inline edit) and the Photos/Calendar mode
selector now live in the page header, shared across all four per-frame
pages instead of being buried in the Configuration form -- so renaming
a frame or flipping its mode no longer requires navigating to a
specific tab first.
Calendar settings move out of a conditionally-hidden card on the
Configuration tab into their own dedicated tab (new /frames/{id}/
calendar route), visually greyed out when the frame is in Photos mode
but still fully usable so calendar settings can be configured ahead of
switching modes. Also wires the week-start setting into the UI for the
first time (the column/backend support landed earlier but had no
control anywhere).
calendar_feed.py/calendar_render.py: fetch/merge per-user ICS feeds,
render agenda/week/month views. manage_overlay.py: composites the
manage-button overlay server-side (QR, battery, location/date,
share-QR, face labels), reused by every render mode. device.py/common.py
wire both together: mode dispatch for /frame/image+advance+back, and
the &manage=1 flag. Plus UI (frame_config.html Calendar card, settings
calendar URL field) and the icalendar/recurring-ical-events deps.
/api/frames/{id}/firmware/check could silently stage new firmware as a
side effect (the auto-apply path, when firmware_auto_update is on and
a newer release exists) but was gated by require_frame_view instead of
require_frame_control like its sibling firmware routes, and being a
GET, was exempt from the app's CSRF check (which only applies to
non-GET/HEAD/OPTIONS). A linked viewer without control -- or a
cross-site page riding a control-holding victim's session via a plain
GET -- could trigger an unreviewed firmware install. Now POST +
require_frame_control, matching /firmware/apply-latest; the frontend's
two callers (passive poll on page load, "Check now" button) both
already handle a 409 from a non-controller gracefully via the existing
apiError()/control-banner pattern, so this doesn't change UX for a
frame's actual controller.
Separately: Immich has been observed to return a face detection entry
with a null bounding-box field (a still-pending or otherwise
incomplete detection). Both places that do arithmetic on those fields
-- image_pipeline._face_aware_crop_box (crop_faces display mode) and
face_labels.compute_face_labels (manage-menu name labels) -- crashed
with an unhandled TypeError on such an entry, taking down that frame's
whole photo instead of the intended graceful fallback. Both now skip
any face missing a bounding-box field via a shared _has_bounding_box()
check; a face list with zero valid entries already degrades cleanly to
the plain center crop (the existing inf/-inf sentinel math already
handled "no faces" correctly, it just couldn't tell "none passed
Immich" apart from "one broken entry" before).
Previously the row just disappeared whenever battery_estimate_s
couldn't be computed yet, which looked like the feature was gone.
Now it always shows once there's any battery reading at all, with a
placeholder until enough discharge history accumulates (matches the
"Not enough data yet." wording battery_chart.js already uses for the
same situation on the chart).
"On battery for" was clutter next to the actual number people care
about. Relabeled "Est. remaining" to "Est. battery life left" and
dropped the now-unused on_battery_since field from the /queue response.
battery_estimate_s itself is unchanged -- it still needs 2h of span and
a 2% drop within the current discharge cycle (reset on any 5%+ jump,
i.e. a recharge or reflash) before it'll show anything. A frame that's
been power-cycled/reflashed recently won't have an estimate yet; that's
expected, not a regression.
Moved out of the Stats tab's side column into a new horizontal bar
shared by every frame page (Photos/Configuration/Stats), sitting
between the page title and the tabs so it's on screen regardless of
which tab is active.
_device_status_bar.html is a new partial included via a device_status
block in app_base.html; device_status_bar.js is the fetch/render/poll
logic extracted from frame_stats.js and adapted to a wrapping row of
label/value pairs instead of a stacked list. frame_stats.html's Device
card and now-single-card .side-col are gone -- Battery history and
Lifetime stats just stack directly.
Advanced configuration gains three sliders (PIL ImageEnhance factors
for color/contrast, 0-2, 1=unchanged; a 0-1 dithering strength) applied
to every photo this frame renders. Confirmed the parameter conventions
against a similar project (jwchen119/EPF: ImageEnhance.Color/Contrast,
1.0 baseline) before implementing; dithering strength isn't natively
exposed by PIL's quantize(), so it's implemented by blending the source
toward its own flat/undithered quantization before running Floyd-
Steinberg on the blend -- at 0 there's no quantization error left to
diffuse (exactly the flat result), at 1 it's the original unmodified
behavior, with a smooth continuum between rather than dithering being
an on/off toggle.
image_pipeline.py split into composition (_compose), enhancement
(_enhance), quantization (_quantize), and transpose+pack stages so
render_frame (device bytes) and the new render_preview_png (a normal
viewable PNG, upright logical orientation) share the same pipeline
instead of duplicating it. Named-face overlay label math (face_labels.py)
was already routed through the shared _placement_transform, so it
needed no changes for the new params.
Also added the requested before/after comparison: the Configuration
tab's new Preview card shows the current photo's untouched Immich
preview next to that same photo run through the frame's actual saved
rendering pipeline (two new GET endpoints, /preview/original and
/preview/rendered) -- immediate visual feedback for tuning the palette
and these new sliders. "Refresh preview" re-fetches after saving.
Schema migration v6 adds color_boost/contrast_boost/dither_strength,
defaulting to 1.0/1.0/1.0 -- reproduces the exact previous rendering
until a frame's Configuration tab changes one.
Verified against the live-shaped test database: the migration, sliders
persisting and clamping out-of-range input, both preview endpoints
(real JPEG passthrough / real PNG at correct logical size+orientation),
confirmed dither_strength=0 actually changes the rendered bytes vs.
default, and the standing legacy-device curl suite.
Replaces the smart_crop_faces boolean with a 4-way display_mode select
on each frame's Configuration tab (image_pipeline.DISPLAY_MODES):
- Crop to fill / Crop to faces: the previous False/True behavior,
unchanged (center-crop trimming excess, optionally shifted to keep
faces on screen).
- Stretch to fill (new): fills the panel exactly, aspect ratio not
preserved -- a plain resize, no crop.
- Shrink to fit (new): the whole photo visible, letterboxed with white
where it doesn't fill the panel.
Named-face overlay label positioning (face_labels.py, the manage menu's
"who's in this photo") now goes through a shared _placement_transform()
in image_pipeline.py instead of duplicating crop-box math, so label
placement stays correct (and in-bounds) under all four modes, not just
the two crop ones -- letterbox/stretch never crop a face out, so labels
just use straight scale+offset math there.
Schema migration v5 adds display_mode, backfills it from the old
boolean (True/False -> crop_faces/crop_fill), and drops the boolean.
Verified against the live-shaped test database: the migration
(existing frames correctly preserved as crop_faces), the config page's
new 4-option select, actual renders under letterbox (confirmed real
white letterbox padding in the packed panel-code bytes) and
stretch_fill, invalid-input fallback, and the standing legacy-device
curl suite.
A native <input type="color"> swatch can't be typed into precisely --
no way to enter an exact measured value. Replaced with a small table:
a read-only preview swatch, a hex text field, and three 0-255 number
fields (R/G/B) per ink color, kept in sync live in both directions
(editing hex updates R/G/B and the swatch; editing any of R/G/B updates
hex and the swatch). Hex stays the field actually read at save time --
the server-side validation (#rrggbb via hex_to_rgb) is unchanged, this
is a client-side-only swap of the input widget.
Advanced configuration (Configuration tab, collapsed <details> section):
a color picker per ink color (black/white/yellow/red/blue/green),
overriding image_pipeline.DEFAULT_PALETTE_RGB for that frame's actual
panel -- different units can vary enough from the documented
approximations to be worth calibrating once you can compare a rendered
photo against the real hardware. Stored as Frame.palette_rgb (NULL =
default, schema migration v4), threaded through render_frame/
render_placeholder/_quantize_and_pack (which now builds the PIL palette
image per call instead of once at import) so both photos and the
unclaimed/unconfigured placeholder screen respect it. "Reset to
defaults" clears back to NULL. Config-save validates exactly 6 #rrggbb
values, rejecting anything else with a 400.
Also: each frame's sidebar entry now shows its last-reported battery
percent (🔋NN%) next to the name, using the frame_dot's existing
recently-seen indicator conventions -- silent when never reported
(mains-only frames, or before the first report), matching how battery
is hidden everywhere else it's not applicable.
Verified against the same live-shaped database as the SMTP work: the
v3->v4 migration, save/reload/reset round trip through the real HTTP
route, an actual rendered image using a custom palette (confirmed via
its packed panel-code bytes), input validation, and the sidebar badge
against real battery data -- plus the standing legacy-device curl suite.
Admin-configured SMTP (server/port/username/password/from address/
STARTTLS, a singleton server_settings row set from /admin -- not env
vars, since it's operator infrastructure a household admin sets up
once through the UI) powers two features, both requiring the relevant
user to have an email set in their own Settings:
- "Forgot password?" on /login emails a one-hour single-use reset link
(password_reset_tokens table). The endpoint always returns the same
generic "check your email" response regardless of whether the address
matched an account, so it can't be used to enumerate registered users.
- A frame's Configuration tab can set a battery-alert threshold
(Frame.battery_alert_threshold_pct, -1 = disabled); POST /frame/battery
emails the owner the first time a report drops to or below it, then
stays quiet for the rest of that discharge cycle (battery_alert_sent,
reset alongside battery_history whenever the existing recharge-jump
detection fires) -- not once per wake.
New app/mail.py wraps stdlib smtplib (no new dependency); send_email()
never raises, so a broken mail server can't 500 a battery report or a
password-reset request. Schema migration v2 adds users.email and the
two frame columns via ALTER TABLE (safe against the live, already-
populated database) plus the two new tables via the existing
create_all-based migration runner.
Verified against a real (already-migrated, real user/frame data)
database: the v1->v2 migration, admin SMTP config + test-email button,
full forgot/reset-password roundtrip (including single-use token
invalidation and the no-enumeration response), and the battery alert
firing exactly once per crossing against a hand-rolled fake SMTP
server -- all via curl end-to-end, plus the standing legacy-device
curl suite to confirm the device protocol is untouched.
The web UI grows into the multi-frame world: a left sidebar lists the
user's frames (with an online dot driven by the same overdue math as
the Device panel; collapsible off-canvas with a hamburger on mobile),
and each frame gets three tabs -- Photos (album picker, now displaying,
the drag-to-reorder upcoming grid), Configuration (name/order/
orientation/refresh/quiet hours/timezone/smart crop + the firmware
card), and Stats (device telemetry, lifetime counters, battery chart).
Settings and Admin adopt the same shell. / becomes a routing hub:
first frame, empty-state onboarding page, setup/login, or the
manage-QR redirect.
The JSON API moves to /api/frames/{id}/... behind require_frame_view /
require_frame_control: any linked user (admins see all) can view; 404
for frames outside your view so ids aren't confirmed; mutations 409
with the holder's name unless you hold the soft control lock, and
POST take-control always flips it to you. Config saves are now partial
updates -- each tab posts only its own fields (checkboxes always sent
explicitly), so the split forms can't clobber each other.
All CSS moves to static/theme.css and the old 680-line inline script
block splits into static/*.js -- the Pointer Events drag-drop state
machine and the canvas battery chart ported intact, not rewritten. The
CSRF fetch wrapper now reads a <meta> tag. No build step, still vanilla.
Verified end-to-end: page/static/API suites, control-lock handoff in
both directions, partial-save field preservation, non-admin frame
isolation, and the legacy-device curl suite (still byte-identical
responses for the deployed frame).
