Reverts the experimental feature that attempted to serve the dashboard
via a local HTTP server registered as a hardcoded `my.dash.board` virtual
host, intended to satisfy Chrome's PWA "secure origin" installability
requirement. The approach caused proxy connection errors and file-not-found
issues that were not worth resolving.
Removed: native-host/dashboard-server.js, native-host/test-chain.mjs
Reverted: startup.js, message-router.js, virtual-hosts.js, index.js,
build-distributable.js, extension/pages/virtual-hosts.js,
CI workflows (ci.yml, release.yml)
Serve the dashboard over a local HTTPS virtual host (my.dash.board) so
Chrome treats it as a secure origin and shows the PWA install prompt.
- Add native-host/dashboard-server.js: bare-http1 static file server
backed by bare-bundle assets in distribution mode, disk fallback in dev
- Add setLocalVirtualHost() to virtual-hosts.js; type:local entries are
protected from removal and filtered out of saveState persistence
- Export setLocalVirtualHost from holesail-manager/index.js
- Start dashboard server in startup.js after proxies are ready and
register my.dash.board as a local virtual host
- Stop dashboard server in message-router.js cleanup()
- Update manifest.webmanifest: start_url, id, scope → https://my.dash.board/
- Embed all extension/dashboard/ files as bare-bundle assets in
build-distributable.js patchBundle() — no installer copy step needed
- Hide checkbox, hs:// URL, Reconnect, and Remove controls for built-in
my.dash.board row in the virtual hosts table UI
- Default latencyPingEnabled to false so badges are hidden until opted in
- Fix toggleLatencyPing sync condition from !== false to === true to match
the new default correctly
- Default tunnelAutoReconnect to true so tunnels reconnect automatically
out of the box
- Hide latency badges in virtual hosts and service tunnels tables when
latency ping is disabled
- Snapshot and restore latency badge values across innerHTML re-renders
so badges never flash back to "…ms" on the 2-second state refresh cycle
- Add CSS transition (color 0.4s ease) and in-flight opacity dim (.pinging)
to .latency-badge for smooth color changes
- Decouple latency pinging from the state refresh cycle — pings now run on
their own independent interval instead of being triggered by refresh()
- Add two new settings under a "Latency Ping" section in Settings:
- Enable Latency Ping toggle (latencyPingEnabled, default: true)
- Ping Interval in seconds (latencyPingIntervalMs, default: 5s)
- Restart ping interval immediately on settings save so changes take effect
without a page reload
- Change readyTimeoutMs default from 0 to 30000 in both state files
- Register Alt+Shift+H keyboard shortcut via manifest _execute_action command
- Add severity filter buttons (All/Info/Warn/Error) and Download .txt to Logs page; background logs.js now tags entries with proper level field
- Fire browser notifications on tunnelError events (notifyOnTunnelError setting)
- Add exponential-backoff auto-reconnect for virtual hosts and service tunnels (tunnelAutoReconnect setting, 5s–120s backoff)
- Add backupIntervalHours setting and scheduled auto-backup timer in message-router.js
- Add TCP connect latency badges to Virtual Hosts and Service Tunnels tables via new pingTunnel native message
- Add bytesIn/bytesOut/requests counters to https-proxy.js; expose in Overview status bar via getState
- Add Export/Import connection configs (JSON, no CA key) in Settings
- Add autoReconnect flag and exponential-backoff reconnect to SSH connection cards
- Add light theme CSS variables and theme toggle in Settings (persisted to localStorage)
- Add checkbox column and bulk Stop/Remove actions to Virtual Hosts, Service Tunnels, and Servers tables
- Add Peer Lookup UI card on Overview page using existing lookup message handler
Split monolithic dashboard.js (2753 lines) into 18 focused modules
under dashboard/{core,data,ui,pages}/ with refresh.js and events.js
as orchestrators. Extracted ~900-line inline <style> into dashboard.css
and moved dashboard.html to dashboard/dashboard.html.
Split background.js (609 lines) into background/{logs,state,proxy,
native-messaging,tab-lifecycle,message-router}.js with a thin entry
point using importScripts().
Deleted dead files: wrong-domain.js (duplicate of inline script).
Updated manifest.json web_accessible_resources for new paths.
Updated docs/ARCHITECTURE.md to reflect the new file structure.
No functionality changed. No build step introduced.
