github preston-peterson/aerodrome v3.4.170

one hour ago

The display board now uses your FlightAware routes, the same way the Live map does.

With a FlightAware key set, tapping a plane on the display board to open its details now asks FlightAware for its route, just as opening a plane on the Live map does: one lookup per flight, counted against your monthly budget. The details card then shows the route with a FlightAware label and "Departed 3:12 PM · arrives about 6:05 PM". The board's rows and photo-rail cards never spend a lookup: they show the FlightAware route for any flight that's already been looked up, from the board, the Live map or a watchlist alert, and the free route list for the rest. Without a key, nothing changes.

Operational notes

This is an ordinary update with a normal restart and no database change. Reload the display board to pick up the change.

Behind the scenes

  • GET /api/callsign/{callsign}/route takes fa=cached as well as fa=1: cached uses a FlightAware route only if one was already looked up and never spends a lookup. The board's rows and cards ask with fa=cached; opening a plane's details switches that flight to fa=1.
