- Add pkt_payload column to direct_messages table for stable packet hash generation and Analyzer URL linking - Update insert_direct_message() and DeviceManager to store pkt_payload - Add test for DM pkt_payload storage (43 tests pass) - Update watchdog to monitor only mc-webui (meshcore-bridge removed) - USB reset trigger now fires for mc-webui container failures Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
mc-webui Container Watchdog
The watchdog service is a utility designed to run on the host machine running the Docker containers for the mc-webui project. Its primary purpose is to continuously monitor the health of the application's containers, specifically the meshcore-bridge container, which handles the physical connection to the LoRa device (like Heltec V3 or V4).
Key Capabilities
- Automated Restarts: If a container becomes
unhealthyor crashes, the watchdog automatically restarts it to restore service without human intervention. - Hardware USB Bus Reset: If the
meshcore-bridgecontainer fails to recover after three successive restarts (e.g., due to a hardware freeze on the LoRa device itself), the watchdog will intelligently simulate a physical disconnection and reconnection of the device via a low-level USB bus reset, completely resolving hardware lockups.
Installation / Update
You can easily install or update the watchdog by running the provided installer script with root privileges:
cd ~/mc-webui/scripts/watchdog
sudo ./install.sh
