- Enhanced readability by adding descriptive suffixes to packet type labels in both rrdtool_handler.py and sqlite_handler.py.
- Aligned packet type definitions with the new naming conventions from pyMC_core, ensuring consistency across the codebase.
- Updated PacketRouter to deliver packets to all companion bridges when the destination is not recognized, ensuring better handling of ephemeral destinations.
- Refactored CompanionFrameServer to separate contact serialization and persistence logic, allowing for non-blocking database operations.
- Introduced a unique index for companion contacts in SQLite to support upsert functionality, enhancing data integrity and performance.
- Improved AdvertHelper to run database operations in a separate thread, preventing event loop blocking and maintaining responsiveness.
Refactor packet processing: use processed_packet for forwarding and drop reason checks
Fix: Update zero-hop determination logic in AdvertHelper
Fix: Clone packet in process_packet to prevent modification of the original
Fix: Import copy module for deep copying of packets in process_packet
- Updated dependency for pymc_core to use the feat/valid-packets-checks branch.
- Removed neighbor tracking logic from RepeaterHandler and moved it to AdvertHelper.
- Introduced PacketPipeline for centralized packet processing, ensuring all packets flow through repeater logic.
- Created handler helpers: TraceHelper, DiscoveryHelper, and AdvertHelper for better modularity.
- Implemented asynchronous processing of advertisement packets and discovery requests.
- Enhanced logging for better traceability and debugging.
- Cleaned up unused code and improved overall structure for maintainability.
