v2.0.0-alpha2 - Docker Build Fix & Auto-Announce Debugging

on GitHub

🔐 v2.0.0-alpha2 - Bug Fixes & Improvements

⚠️ ALPHA RELEASE - For Testing Only

This is the second alpha release of MeshMonitor v2.0.0, fixing critical Docker build issues and improving auto-announce debugging.

🐛 Bug Fixes

Docker Build Fix (#140)

• Fixed: Docker production build failing with npm ci error
• Change: Updated Dockerfile to use npm install --omit=dev instead of npm ci --only=production
• Reason: npm ci requires package-lock.json which is deleted in the builder stage
• Impact: Docker images can now be built successfully for releases

Auto-Announce Debugging Improvements

• Added: Comprehensive logging to diagnose auto-announce scheduling issues
• Logs:
  • Interval trigger events with connection status
  • Skipped announcements when disconnected
  • Scheduler startup confirmation with next announcement time
• Purpose: Help identify if scheduler is starting, interval is firing, or connection checks are failing

📝 Changes Since Alpha 1

+ Fixed Docker production build (npm install --omit=dev)
+ Added auto-announce interval trigger logging
+ Added connection status logging in announce scheduler
+ Added scheduler startup confirmation message

🔍 Debugging Auto-Announce

If auto-announce isn't working, check the logs for:

1. 📢 Starting announce scheduler with X hour interval - Confirms scheduler is starting
2. 📢 Announce scheduler started - next announcement in X hours - Confirms interval was created
3. 📢 Announce interval triggered (connected: true/false) - Shows when interval fires
4. 📢 Sending auto-announcement to channel X - Shows actual announcement being sent

If you see "connected: false" when the interval triggers, the node connection may be dropping between announcements.

🔧 First-Run Setup

Same as Alpha 1:

• Username: admin
• Password: changeme

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Change this password immediately after first login!

🔑 Configuration

Same environment variables as Alpha 1 - see full documentation in the Alpha 1 release notes.
