This was mostly straightforward. The most confusing part waas the Sync
bound change on body streams. I copied what hyper did and it seemed to
work. /shruggie
Besides being more clear about what belongs to which, this helps with
docker caching. The server and ui parts are only rebuilt when their
respective subdirectories change.
Extend this a bit further by making the webpack build not depend on
the target architecture. And adding cache dirs so parts of the server
and ui build process can be reused when layer-wide caching fails.
This replaces the previous Dockerfile, which was a single stage for
building and deployment.
The new one is a multi-stage build. Its "dev" target has the full
development environment; its "deploy" target is more slim. It supports
cross-compiled builds via BuildKit, eg to prepare a build suitable for
a Raspberry Pi:
docker buildx build --load --platform=linux/arm64/v8 --tag=moonfire-nvr --progress=plain --target=deploy -f docker/Dockerfile .
Coming next: updating the installation docs.
The code was confused about whether this was relative to the start of
the recording or the desired range of the recording. When the two
differ (that is, when the beginning of the segment is skipped), the
duration was incorrect. The thread would panic when skipping beyond
the start of the next second.
Also add some missing info to Segment's Debug impl.
This brings most things reasonably up-to-date. libpasta's deps are
dragging a bit, keeping us on an older ring to avoid duplication,
and causing us to use three versions of base64. And I need to update
a few of my companion crates' parking_lot dep to match tokio.
With Rust 1.48.0, I was getting panics like "attempted to leave type
`linked_hash_map::Node<std::string::String,
raw_statement::RawStatement>` uninitialized, which is invalid". Looks
like this is due to a bug in linked-hash-map 0.5.2, fixed with 0.5.3.
Along the way, I see that rusqlite no longer uses this crate; it
switched to hashlink. Upgrade rusqlite and match that change for my own
use (video index LRU cache).
I'm still pulling in linked-hash-map via serde_yaml. I didn't even
realize I was using serde_yaml, but libpasta wants it. Seems a little
silly to me but that's something I might explore another day.
This works around the problem in which the first frame has an incorrect
pts. Before we waited for the second key frame, which added annoying
latency to starting the stream.
I don't think the buffering does anything helpful for Moonfire NVR
anyway.
This should reduce live stream latency by two seconds when my cameras
are at their default setting (I frame interval = 2 * frame rate)!
I was under the impression that every HTML5 Media Source Extensions
media segment had to start with a Random Access Point. This used to
be true, but apparently changed quite a while ago:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=229412
Support generating segments that don't start with a key frame, and
plumb this through the mp4 media segment generation logic. Add some
extra error checking in mp4 slice handling, as my first attempts had a
mismatch between expected and actual lengths that silently returned
corrupted .m4s files.
Also pull everything from the most recent key frame on along with the
first live segment to reduce startup latency. Live view is quite a bit
more pleasant now.
This splits the schema and playback path. The recording path still
adjusts the frame durations and always says the wall and media durations
are the same. I expect to change that in a following commit. I wouldn't
be surprised if that shakes out some bugs in this portion.
This is a quick fix to a problem that gives a confusing/poor initial
experience, as in this thread:
https://groups.google.com/g/moonfire-nvr-users/c/WB-TIW3bBZI/m/Gqh-L6I9BgAJ
I don't think it's a permanent solution. In particular, when we
implement an event stream (#40), I don't want to have a separate event
for every frame, so having the days map change that often won't work.
The client side will likely manipulate the days map then to include a
special entry for a growing recording, representing "from this time to
now".
