Work-in-progress release! to get everyone back on the air
- Partial repair for The values appear and disappear (#37)
- DRAFT of new indicator to show if RPi has pending Reporter Daemon Update (#36) [If you have time, please read and comment]
NOTE: v1.2.8 apparently had underlying code that was not working in all cases. (it determines the date/time of the last time the data underlying a card was received from MQTT.) Additionally, the breakage invoked an additional mechanism that wiped out the card values when it was not known when the last time data was obtained from MQTT. (In this case the "waiting for report" indicator is displayed when values are not what was expected from the underlying code.)
So, this release takes the following actions:
- Update to the latest version of the underly code.
- Remove the mechanism that clears card values. (I am not sure if I'll ever put this back in.)
- Changes the message to "{unexpected value}..." and now logs the unexpected value it got to console.log() at the same time
So, if any of you continue to see this new "{unexpected value}..." status I would appreciate it if you could locate the console message : HCUTE (DBG) ( hostname ) card_timestamp_value=[...] and report what you get back to the issue (#37)
Lastly, this is an interim release as I'm seeing an instability that I'm still chasing. When found and fixed I'll post another release.
The effect this has is that cards appear to slow down their updates (or lose the ability to update?) over time. The workaround is to reload the page. Internally there is an uncaught exception that I'm trying to locate and then catch. But it's taking some time to find.
