A logged-in user can now trigger, from a new "Offline data" sidebar
panel, what was previously a fully manual go-pmtiles workflow
(docs/development.adoc): regenerate either file for the current map
viewport, no area-picker (same "visible area is the area" convention
the Overpass POI plugin already uses).
- lib/maptool/pmtiles_builder.rb: two independent background jobs
(Thread + Mutex-guarded status Hash, same shape as app.rb's own GNSS
poller), each writing to a .tmp path and atomically renaming into
place so a build never serves a partially-written file mid-run.
offline.pmtiles is a single `pmtiles extract` against Protomaps'
public daily basemap build (byte-range extraction, not a full
~120GB download). terrain.pmtiles has no equivalent public
Terrarium-encoded archive to extract from, so it fetches individual
Terrarium tiles itself, packs them into an intermediate MBTiles
(new sqlite3 gem), then the same `pmtiles convert`.
- 4 new app.rb routes (POST .../build, GET .../build-status) plus
size/mtime added to the existing availability endpoints.
- public/js/offline_data.js: new sidebar panel, polling build-status
the same self-rescheduling-setTimeout shape livetrack.js already
uses for its own refresh loop.
- Both network-heavy pieces (the Protomaps build index, per-tile
fetches) are injectable, so test/test_pmtiles_builder.rb exercises
the actual build pipeline against a fake `pmtiles` binary without
hitting a real network, matching this suite's existing
keep-it-offline convention for external services.
A plugin is a directory under plugins/ with a plugin.json manifest
({"label": "...", "command": "./run.sh"}) plus a script that reads
--south/--west/--north/--east and prints a GeoJSON FeatureCollection
to stdout (lib/maptool/plugins.rb) — that's the entire interface a
plugin needs to know about this app. The sidebar's new import icon
(logged in only, GET /api/plugins + POST /api/plugins/:name/run) lists
whatever's found and runs one for the current map viewport, saving its
output as a new .geojson file the same way an upload would be.
The point: a scraper for a site whose ToS forbids that (Park4Night,
iOverlander, Freecampsites) doesn't need to live in this public repo
to work here — its own directory just goes under plugins/ locally and
is never git add'ed, no special-casing needed anywhere.
plugins/overpass-pois wraps the existing rake overpass:pois query as
the first, in-repo, reference example of the contract.
Also fills in four modules (auth.js, locate.js, measure.js, notes.js)
missing from layout.erb's cache-busting importmap alongside adding
plugins.js's own entry — a pre-existing gap that meant they could keep
serving a stale cached copy across a deploy despite the importmap
existing specifically to prevent that.
map.priesol.net sits behind a reverse proxy that only forwards to
maptool itself, so the previous approach (publish kiwix-serve's port,
link the browser straight at it) had no address a real browser could
ever reach — not just a Docker-internal hostname as first assumed, but
no host/port combination at all works from outside.
GET /kiwix/* now proxies to kiwix-serve (Kiwix.proxy in
lib/maptool/kiwix.rb, a plain Net::HTTP passthrough), and the kiwix
service runs with --urlRootLocation=/kiwix so every link/asset it
emits already carries that same prefix and needs no rewriting
(confirmed against libkiwix/internalServer.cpp, which strips this
exact prefix off incoming requests). Drops the port-publishing
approach from the previous commit entirely.
- "Nearby on Wikipedia" linked to KIWIX_URL, a Docker-internal hostname
(http://kiwix:8080) no real browser can resolve. Split it: KIWIX_URL
stays server-side-only for the reachability check, and the link
itself is built from KIWIX_PUBLIC_PORT (kiwix-serve's newly
published host port) plus whatever host the visitor already used to
reach maptool — works regardless of which hostname/IP that is.
- The Save button went white on hover in GTK-themed Chrome: the
browser's native button skin was painting over the custom
background because appearance wasn't reset.
- The map preview marker for a pending note always showed a plain red
pin no matter which icon was picked in the form. NoteSaveForm now
reports icon changes via onIconChange so NotesControl can update the
marker's glyph live.
- Saving a note (or a Measure "Save as note") left the new/grown
.geojson file unchecked and invisible until manually toggled on.
notifyGpxStoreChanged now carries the affected path so
GpxPanelControl auto-shows it.
Bind-mounting data/kiwix/ (the directory) meant a symlink placed
inside it broke: the container has to resolve that symlink itself,
in its own filesystem, where the host path it points to doesn't
exist. Binding the exact data/kiwix/wikipedia.zim file path instead
resolves it on the host at mount time (plain mount(2) semantics), so
the real ZIM can live anywhere on the host without duplicating a
multi-GB file into this repo's data/ directory.
lib/maptool/kiwix.rb: a small reachability check for an external
kiwix-serve instance. GET /api/kiwix reports it (same optional-
integration pattern as offline-tiles/terrain-tiles); the frontend
adds a "Nearby on Wikipedia" link to a point's popup pointing straight
at kiwix-serve's own geo search (GET /search?latitude=&longitude=
&distance=, confirmed from libkiwix's actual source rather than
guessed) — linked to directly, not proxied/embedded, since it already
has a full search UI of its own.
docker-compose.yaml: new `kiwix` service (ghcr.io/kiwix/kiwix-serve)
on the default network, KIWIX_URL wired to reach it by service name.
The ZIM itself isn't part of the repo (large, self-contained archive)
— data/kiwix/ gitignored same as the *.pmtiles files, setup steps in
docs/development.adoc.
No kiwix-serve/ZIM available here to test end-to-end — verified the
app side against a stand-in local HTTP server (GET /api/kiwix flips
available correctly) and confirmed the generated popup link matches
the real geo-search query shape. docker-compose.yaml validated with
`docker-compose config`. Full test suite: 118 runs, 0 failures.
lib/maptool/overpass_pois.rb: queries Overpass for drinking water,
dump stations, LPG refill, toilets, laundromats, supermarkets/
convenience stores, and springs within a bbox, writes GeoJSON. A
dev-time tool (like the offline.pmtiles/terrain.pmtiles generation
steps already documented) — not called by the running app, drop the
output into data/gpx/ or upload it through the Tracks panel like any
other .geojson layer.
Verified against the real Overpass API (88 POIs for central
Bratislava) in addition to the new unit tests (pure to_geojson/
build_query logic, no network in the suite itself). Full suite: 103
runs, 0 failures.
Sidebar toggle (new HillshadeControl) adds a raster-dem hillshade
layer: public Terrarium tiles when online, or a local
data/terrain.pmtiles when present (mirrors offline.pmtiles' optional-
local-file pattern, new /api/terrain-tiles + /tiles/terrain.pmtiles
endpoints). No offline terrain data is bundled, so the toggle is
online-only until one is generated — see docs/development.adoc for
how.
bin/gnss_simulator.rb speaks gpsd's own JSON wire protocol directly
on its default port -- GpsdClient connects to it exactly as it would
to real gpsd, no app changes needed, and no gpsd install/daemon
required either (unlike the existing fake-NMEA-source approach in
docs/development.adoc, which still needs gpsd itself in front of it).
Drives a loop around a center point at a driving-ish pace rather than
sitting still, since a fixed position isn't much of a "GNSS position"
to look at.
Verified end to end: started it, pointed a dev server at it, and
confirmed /api/gnss/position reports a moving fix across two polls.
`bundle exec rake test` (minitest, a default gem but pinned in
Gemfile for reproducibility) now covers what ad-hoc scripts kept
re-verifying by hand during development: Gpx/Fit/TrackStats parsing,
GpxStore/LiveTrackStore file/TTL logic, LiveTrackClient's payload
parsing, and app.rb's routes end to end via Rack::MockRequest.
MAPTOOL_DATA_DIR (new, app.rb) lets the suite point GPX_STORE/
LIVETRACK_STORE at a throwaway directory instead of real data/ —
without it every run would leave uploaded test files behind. Each
lib file's old `if __FILE__ == $0` self-check is now redundant with
real tests covering the same ground, so removed rather than kept as
a second copy of the same assertions. Wired into ci.yml so it isn't
just a local convenience.
Runs renovate/renovate against this Gitea instance on the native
deploy runner, opening PRs for outdated Bundler dependencies instead
of relying on manually noticing (as happened with puma/mustermann
earlier).
Ruby syntax check, a require_relative "app" smoke load, and JS syntax
check on every push/PR. No test suite exists yet, so these are cheap
syntax/load checks rather than behavioral tests.
Restructure the map controls from MapLibre corner buttons into a left
sidebar of icons with flyouts/panels (radar, GPX, GNSS), matching
OsmAnd's layout more closely:
- Base map and GPX selection are now full-height side panels docked
next to the sidebar (not small dropdown flyouts or a right-docked
panel), opening/closing exclusively via a small shared event bus
(panels.js) so only one is ever open at a time.
- The GPX panel's upload/new-folder controls are now icon buttons in
the header instead of an always-visible dropzone and form; dragging
a GPX file onto the tree, a specific folder, or straight onto the
map itself all upload it.
- New: Maptool::GpsdClient (lib/maptool/gpsd_client.rb) streams live
GNSS fixes from a local gpsd daemon over Server-Sent Events
(/api/gnss/stream) to a marker on the map (public/js/gnss.js) — one
background gpsd connection shared by every browser tab.
- The online map style (public/js/osmand-style.js) is now styled to
resemble OsmAnd's own rendering, applied to both the online and
offline (PMTiles) styles.
Also adds a GeolocateControl (browser geolocation) next to the zoom
controls.
Replace Leaflet/raster tiles with MapLibre GL JS: an online OpenFreeMap
style and an offline style built from a local PMTiles archive via
pmtiles.js and protomaps-themes-base (no glyphs/labels offline by
design, see docs/architecture.adoc). Frontend libraries are vendored
locally rather than loaded from a CDN so the app keeps working with no
internet access.
Also add an animated RainViewer precipitation radar overlay (toggle,
play/pause, scrub slider), matching the default time window of the
weather-radar-card Home Assistant integration.
