The host from Application.get_env returns a binary string, but :gen_tcp.connect
expects a charlist. This was causing ArgumentError on connection attempts.
Convert host to charlist if it's a binary before passing to :gen_tcp.connect.
This commit addresses two major areas:
1. Crash Prevention & Error Handling:
- Added error handling to all database queries to prevent crashes
- Implemented circuit breaker pattern for APRS-IS connection
- Added timeouts to all Redis operations (5 second timeout)
- Fixed unsafe pattern matches that could cause MatchError crashes
- Added try/rescue blocks around background tasks
- Improved socket operation error handling with proper cleanup
- Enhanced packet cleanup worker with comprehensive error handling
2. RF Path Station Markers:
- Fixed issue where digipeater/iGate icons weren't shown when searching for callsigns
- Now loads and displays position markers for all stations in the RF path
- Extracts RF path stations from tracked callsign packets
- Fetches latest position for each digipeater/iGate
- Properly displays complete RF path visualization with station positions
Technical details:
- Added Process.alive? checks before sending messages
- Fixed resource cleanup in terminate functions
- Added proper error handling to File.read operations
- Implemented safe wrapper for ShutdownHandler health checks
- All changes ensure the app continues running even when errors occur
