The previous fix tried to defer page-side RevealNode to the second
render so TreeView's async sessionStorage load could finish first. In
practice Blazor Server didn't always fire a second OnAfterRenderAsync
on the page after the deep-link load, so the reveal never ran.
Real fix: change TreeView's storage-load to UNION the restored keys
with whatever's already in _expandedKeys, instead of REPLACING. That
way the page can call RevealNode whenever it wants and the storage
restore can't clobber the reveal regardless of completion order. The
page-side guard simplifies back to a one-shot reveal on first render.
Semantic note: if a deep-link reveal expands an ancestor that the user
had previously collapsed, the deep link wins. Intentional — the URL
expresses the navigation intent.
Both page.OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender=true) and
TreeView.OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender=true) ran concurrently:
- Page called RevealNode → added ancestor keys to _expandedKeys
- TreeView awaited treeviewStorage.load → replaced _expandedKeys with
the persisted set (often empty if user collapsed before navigating)
Whichever JS interop completed second won. When TreeView won, the deep-link
reveal silently lost. Gate the reveal on firstRender==false so it runs
strictly after TreeView's restore is done.
Without stopPropagation, dropping a template onto a folder fires both
OnDrop(folder) and OnDropOnRoot via event bubbling. The two async handlers
race on the same scoped DbContext, which is not thread-safe — the second
throws ObjectDisposedException and tears down the Blazor circuit. Surfaced
during browser smoke testing via JS-dispatched DragEvent sequence.
Smoke testing revealed two issues introduced by the modal extraction commit:
1. ErrorMessage / InitialName / TemplateName parameters on the dialog
components were passed as bare strings (e.g. ErrorMessage="_newFolderError")
instead of dereferenced C# expressions (ErrorMessage="@_newFolderError").
Razor treats unquoted-but-not-@-prefixed values to string parameters as
string literals — so the error block rendered the literal field name in
red whenever the modal opened. Non-string parameters (int/IEnumerable)
were fine since Razor treats those as C# expressions by default.
2. The Templates header + 4-button toolbar shared one flex row, but at
col-md-4 / col-lg-3 width the buttons overflowed into the right-column
empty-state area. Stack title above a full-width btn-group instead.
LmxProxy is no longer needed. Moved the entire lmxproxy/ workspace, DCL
adapter files, and related docs to deprecated/. Removed LmxProxy registration
from DataConnectionFactory, project reference from DCL, protocol option from
UI, and cleaned up all requirement docs.
Add NodeStatus record, IClusterNodeProvider interface, and AkkaClusterNodeProvider
that queries Akka cluster membership for all site-role nodes. HealthReportSender
populates ClusterNodes before each report. UI shows a row per node with
hostname, Online/Offline badge, and Primary/Standby badge. Falls back to
single-node display if ClusterNodes is not populated.
New fields in SiteHealthReport: NodeHostname, DataConnectionEndpoints
(primary/secondary), DataConnectionTagQuality (good/bad/uncertain),
ParkedMessageCount. New collector methods to populate them.
Health dashboard redesigned to match mockup: Nodes | Data Connections
(with per-connection tag quality) | Instances + S&F Buffers | Error
Counts + Parked Messages. Site names resolved from repository.
Keys from KeySelector (e.g. boxed int) were compared against string keys
restored from sessionStorage, causing expansion state to be lost on
navigation. All keys are now normalized to strings internally.
Areas page now shows a single TreeView with sites as roots and areas as
children. Context menus: sites get "Add Area", areas get "Add Child Area",
"Edit Area", "Delete Area" — each navigating to a dedicated page.
The Delete Area page shows a TreeView of the area and all recursive children
with assigned instances. Deletion is blocked if any instances are assigned
to the area or its descendants.
Move connection bindings, attribute overrides, and area assignment from
inline expandable rows on the Instances table to a separate page at
/deployment/instances/{id}/configure for a cleaner, less cramped UX.
ArrayValue from LmxProxy client was showing as type name in debug views.
Added ValueFormatter utility and NormalizeValue in LmxProxyDataConnection
to convert arrays at the adapter boundary. DateTime arrays remain as
"System.DateTime[]" due to server-side v1 string serialization.
Replace SiteDataConnectionAssignment join table with a direct SiteId FK on DataConnection,
simplifying the data model, repositories, UI, CLI, and deployment service.
Move all CRUD create/edit forms from inline on list pages to dedicated form pages
with back-button navigation and post-save redirect. Add Playwright Docker container
(browser server on port 3000) with 25 passing E2E tests covering login, navigation,
and site CRUD workflows. Add POST /auth/token endpoint for clean JWT retrieval.
The debug view polled every 2s by re-subscribing for full snapshots. Now a
persistent DebugStreamBridgeActor on central subscribes once and receives
incremental Akka stream events from the site, forwarding them to the Blazor
component via callbacks and to the CLI via a new SignalR hub at
/hubs/debug-stream. Adds `debug stream` CLI command with auto-reconnect.
- Add JoeAppEngine folder to OPC UA nodes.json (BTCS, AlarmCntsBySeverity, Scheduler/ScanTime)
- Fix DataConnectionActor: capture Self in PreStart for use from non-actor threads,
preventing Self.Tell failure in Disconnected event handler
- Implement InstanceActor.HandleConnectionQualityChanged to mark attributes Bad on disconnect
- Fix LmxFakeProxy TagMapper to serialize arrays as JSON instead of "System.Int32[]"
- Allow DataType and DataSourceReference updates in TemplateService.UpdateAttributeAsync
- Update test_infra_opcua.md with JoeAppEngine documentation
Add SiteReplicationActor (runs on every site node) to replicate deployed
configs and store-and-forward buffer operations to the standby peer via
cluster member discovery and fire-and-forget Tell. Wire ReplicationService
handler and pass replication actor to DeploymentManagerActor singleton.
Fix 5 pre-existing ConfigurationDatabase test failures: RowVersion NOT NULL
on SQLite, stale migration name assertion, and seed data count mismatch.
Wired ISiteHealthCollector calls for script errors (ScriptExecutionActor),
alarm eval errors (AlarmActor), dead letters (DeadLetterMonitorActor), and
S&F buffer depth placeholder. Added instance count tracking (deployed/
enabled/disabled) to SiteHealthReport via DeploymentManagerActor. Updated
Health Dashboard UI to show instance counts per site. All metrics flow
through the existing health report pipeline via ClusterClient.
Areas management is a design concern, not admin. Moved Areas page
authorization from RequireAdmin to RequireDesign, moved nav link from
Admin to Design section, updated ManagementActor role check. Added
GET /logout endpoint (was 404, now redirects to login). Improved Sign
Out button visibility in sidebar next to username.
Central now resolves site Akka remoting addresses from the Sites DB table
(NodeAAddress/NodeBAddress) instead of relying on runtime RegisterSite
messages. Eliminates the race condition where sites starting before central
had their registration dead-lettered. Addresses are cached in
CentralCommunicationActor with 60s periodic refresh and on-demand refresh
when sites are added/edited/deleted via UI or CLI.
All 22 occurrences of hardcoded "system" user string replaced with
GetCurrentUserAsync() which reads the Username claim from AuthenticationState.
Affected: Instances.razor (6), Sites.razor (2), Templates.razor (11),
SharedScripts.razor (3).
- Add connection binding UI to Instances page (per-attribute and bulk assign)
- FlatteningService populates Connections dict from bound data connections
- Real OPC UA client using OPC Foundation SDK for live tag subscriptions
- DataConnectionFactory uses RealOpcUaClientFactory by default
- OpcUaDataConnection supports both "endpoint" and "EndpointUrl" config keys
DeploymentManagerActor now handles SubscribeDebugViewRequest and
UnsubscribeDebugViewRequest by forwarding to the appropriate Instance Actor.
This completes the debug view data flow from Central UI through to the site's
Instance Actor snapshot. Reduced refresh interval to 2s for responsiveness.
Instances page gains Deploy button that triggers flattening pipeline and sends
config to site. Button shows "Redeploy" when instance is stale. Fixed actor name
collision on redeployment by scheduling deferred recreation after Context.Stop.
Bootstrap served locally with absolute paths and <base href="/">.
LDAP auth uses search-then-bind with service account for GLAuth compatibility.
CookieAuthenticationStateProvider reads HttpContext.User instead of parsing JWT.
Login/logout forms opt out of Blazor enhanced nav (data-enhance="false").
Nav links use absolute paths; seed data includes Design/Deployment group mappings.
DataConnections page loads all connections (not just site-assigned).
Site appsettings configured for Test Plant A; Site registers with Central on startup.
DeploymentService resolves string site identifier for Akka routing.
Instances page gains Create Instance form.
