- Beacon detail endpoints (LiveView + REST API) now hide unapproved
beacons from anonymous and unauthorized viewers; only the submitter
and admins can see pending records before approval. Adds
Beacons.get_visible_beacon/2 with scope-aware checks.
- API contact pagination now honors per_page end-to-end.
Radio.list_contacts/1 accepts :per_page and clamps to 200.
- API rate limiter: ETS table is now owned by a long-lived Sweeper
GenServer (won't die with a request task); Sweeper periodically
prunes expired-window rows to bound memory; init_table/0 race is
rescued.
- /scores/cells and /weather/cells: add per-IP rate limiting and a
shared GridBounds clamp/413 guard so global / oversized viewports
no longer drive unbounded binary responses.
- NEXRAD PNG unfilter (sub/up/average/paeth): replace acc++[byte]
+ Enum.at(acc, idx-bpp) with O(n) binary recursion. Decode time
for the 12200x5400 n0q frame goes from quadratic to linear.
- LiveTableFooter.parse_page and ScoresFile.fetch_bound: switch
String.to_integer/String.to_float to Integer.parse/Float.parse,
fall back to defaults instead of raising.
- PathLive and MapLive band-event handlers: replace
String.to_integer(params["band"]) with parse_int / parse_band_param
so a non-numeric band parameter no longer crashes the LiveView.
Apply the same overlay refactor we did for /weather to the propagation
map. Score data used to flow as JSON via LiveView push_event
(update_scores + the 18-hour preload_forecast batch); switching bands
or scrubbing time meant a synchronous server roundtrip + ~MB JSON push
per change.
Now:
1. New /scores/cells endpoint returns a "PSCR" binary cell-pack —
columnar f32 lats/lons + u8 scores, ~3-4× smaller than JSON and
parsed via DataView + typed-array views with no JSON.parse.
2. JS hook owns score fetching. mount/moveend/band/time changes
trigger HTTP fetches against /scores/cells. After the initial
paint, every other forecast hour for the current band is fetched
in parallel in the background — timeline scrubs after the prefetch
finishes are pure cache hits with no network at all.
3. LiveView no longer pushes scores. select_band emits update_band_info
with band_mhz so the client knows what to refetch; select_time and
set_selected_time only update server-side state (URL, point detail
bbox). map_bounds, propagation_updated, and advance_now_cursor all
skip the score push — pack_scores, schedule_bounds_update,
schedule_preload_forecast, the :flush_bounds and :preload_forecast
handle_info clauses, and the start_async :initial_scores lifecycle
(incl. retry_initial_scores event) are all deleted.
Net result: instant band toggles after the first paint, no LiveView
WebSocket payloads larger than the timeline metadata, and ~370 fewer
lines in MapLive.
