From 2e9490ca27047ae03e495d397abbe1aec1b2273a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe Besson Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 22:21:19 +0200 Subject: feat: unified group management, public groups, and activity-based sidebar MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Create Group wizard (Electron-only) consolidates 6 steps across 4 interfaces into a single multi-step page: group creation on hub, node attachment, root selection via folder picker, GEK initialization, and auto-pairing — all in one flow. Browser SPA keeps its current behavior unchanged. Public group support (Option A — GEK for all groups): - All groups have GEK regardless of visibility; open-join groups auto-admit via TOFU when join_policy is "open" - Key rotation blocked for public groups (API guard + UI hidden) - Hub signaling allows WebRTC offers for nodes hosting open-join groups even when the caller isn't a member yet - attach_group writes join_policy to node.toml - Daemon loads GEK for all groups, not just private ones - Known-device path in join_request now auto-admits to open-join groups Node loopback API bridge (Electron IPC): - node:detect, node:call, node:pairing-code IPC handlers in main process - Renderer never sees tokens, paths, or keys (session token = physical access) - platform.js node namespace for UI consumption - Loopback endpoints: roots CRUD, member-upload toggle, reload Bug fixes: - Root change detection: removed premature ctx["roots"] updates from add_root and remove_root that prevented indexer retarget on reload - Duplicate offline message: global fallback now gated on !group - Signaling membership check: fallback to open-join groups for non-members Sidebar groups sorted by last_activity_at (most recent first): - New Group.last_activity_at column with Alembic migration - POST /v1/groups/{id}/activity endpoint, called on connect and chat send - Client-side sort + throttled hub updates (1/min) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 --- packages/meshbay-node/src/meshbay_node/hub_client.py | 19 ++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'packages/meshbay-node/src/meshbay_node/hub_client.py') diff --git a/packages/meshbay-node/src/meshbay_node/hub_client.py b/packages/meshbay-node/src/meshbay_node/hub_client.py index b345187..92c39db 100644 --- a/packages/meshbay-node/src/meshbay_node/hub_client.py +++ b/packages/meshbay-node/src/meshbay_node/hub_client.py @@ -229,12 +229,24 @@ class HubClient: except Exception: pass + async def update_ws_groups(self, group_ids: list[str]) -> None: + """Tell the hub about changed group list without dropping the connection.""" + ws = self._ws + if ws: + try: + await ws.send(json.dumps({ + "type": "update_groups", + "group_ids": group_ids, + })) + except Exception: + pass + async def maintain_ws( self, on_incoming: Any = None, on_revocation: Any = None, on_webrtc_offer: Any = None, - group_ids: list[str] | None = None, + group_ids: list[str] | None = None, # static list or callable returning one ) -> None: """ Maintain a persistent WebSocket connection to the hub. @@ -267,8 +279,9 @@ class HubClient: "token": self._session.access_token, "node_id": self._session.node_id, } - if group_ids: - auth_msg["group_ids"] = group_ids + gids = group_ids() if callable(group_ids) else group_ids + if gids: + auth_msg["group_ids"] = gids await ws.send(json.dumps(auth_msg)) # Bounded: a hub that accepts the socket and then says nothing # — which is what it does for a few seconds while restarting — -- cgit v1.2.3
