 # Changelog

+## 26.10.3
+
+### Added
+
+- Choose the layout of the whole app in Settings, Appearance. Admins can also set the default layout and theme for everyone
+- Plugins can add layouts and themes
+- A repair screen shows when the chosen layout cannot load, with ways to update, switch, reset or turn it off. Open it any time with ?safe-layout=1, or for everyone with TERMIX_SAFE_LAYOUT=1
+- Hovering a theme in Settings previews it
+- Restore the bundled copy of a plugin from the repair screen, which also pins the shipped version
+- Switching layouts closes the tabs only the old layout could show, like its Settings tab
+- A chosen layout whose plugin was uninstalled falls back to the default instead of the repair screen
+- Filter plugins by type, like layouts, themes or tabs, from a filter list beside the results
+- Browse shows plugins a page at a time
+- Plugins that need a newer Termix are hidden in Browse, with a toggle to show them
+
+### Changed
+
+- The icon rail, sidebar, tab bar, dock, Dashboard, Manage, Settings and command palette now come from a bundled layout. It can be swapped for another layout but not removed, and a fix to it no longer needs a Termix release
+- Your theme is saved to your account so your other devices use it too, unless you keep settings on this device only
+- The themes besides light and dark now come from a bundled themes plugin. It can be swapped but not removed, and Termix keeps a basic light and dark theme of its own
+- A theme that no longer exists shows as System instead of an unstyled page
+- Installs and updates from a registry check the Termix version a plugin needs, not only its plugin API
+- Host online and offline dots now come from the Host Status plugin. The check interval setting moved to its settings and keeps its value. Without the plugin hosts show no dot
+- Audit log forwarding and the CSV and NDJSON export now come from the Audit Tools plugin. The collector URL and token move to its settings on upgrade. The audit log viewer, retention and the audit log itself stay in Termix
+- Client tunnels on your own computer and opening a host in Windows Remote Desktop moved out of the desktop app into plugins, so fixes to them no longer need a new desktop build
+- The local terminal, the local side of the file manager with its transfers, and opening a file in an external editor moved out of the desktop app into plugins, so fixes to them no longer need a new desktop build
+- The recent activity list and the first run steps for the preset and for theme, accent, font and language now come from bundled plugins. Existing entries and choices are kept, and people who went through those steps are not asked again
+- Branding (app name, tagline and logo) is now saved by the bundled layout plugin. An existing setup keeps its branding, and the sign in screen still reads it from Termix
+- Without the plugin that stores recent activity, the list stays empty and nothing is recorded
+- Importing hosts from a JSON or SSH config file and exporting hosts now come from the Import and Export plugin. Exports are now written to the audit log. Without the plugin there is no import or export
+- Generating and checking SSH keys in the credential editor and deploying a key to a host now come from the Credential Tools plugin. Deploys are now written to the audit log. Without the plugin those buttons are hidden
+
+### Removed
+
+- The desktop app no longer has its own client tunnel and native Remote Desktop code
+
 ## 26.10.2

 ### Added

 - Hide sidebar after opening, in Customize Sidebar, closes the host list once you open a host
 - Sort the dashboard's Host Status card by name, IP address or status
+- Windows on ARM builds of the desktop app (installer, MSI and portable)
+- Plugins get an event when a host is added
+- Plugins can start a short-lived session as a user and read the user's language, for tasks that run without a browser
+- Plugins can pin a panel to the right edge of the window that pushes the page over

 ### Changed

+- The Docker Compose files no longer start a guacd container. npm run dev -- --guacd also points remote desktop at the guacd it starts
 - The side menu now opens over the page when it expands on hover, so open sessions like remote desktop are not resized each time. Turn on Push content when it expands in Settings to get the old behavior back
+- On macOS, moving between split panes is now Cmd+Option+Arrow, so Option+Arrow can move the cursor by word in a terminal

 ### Fixed

@@ -34,6 +76,13 @@
 - nginx answered 404 instead of 502 while the backend was down
 - A client tunnel that could not start always said "Endpoint SSH connection closed" on the desktop app instead of the real reason, like the target refusing the connection
 - The Docker server crashed and restarted every few hours in ssh2's native crypto on Node 24
+- Plugin names and descriptions showed in English in the plugin manager, setup picker and host editor no matter the UI language
+- Creating a host through the API without an auth type failed with a server error. It now picks the type from the credential, key or password, or says auth type is required
+- The desktop app would not start its local server when another program used port 30001. It now picks a free port on its own
+- A linked desktop could never finish syncing with a server on Postgres
+- Routine plugin activity filled the audit log and pushed out real security entries
+- Opening a full-screen view link while signed out showed a spinner forever. It now shows the login and opens the link after
+- A linked desktop behind a proxy that needs extra headers, or with an allowed self-signed certificate, could not open remote terminals or tunnels

 # Changelog

+## 1.0.13
+
+Plugin API 1.5.0.
+
+### Added
+
+- `runtime: "desktop"` in the manifest for a plugin that only loads on the desktop app
+- `desktop:local` and `ctx.desktop.local`: file system, local shell and machine info on the desktop app's own backend
+- `ctx.audit.subscribe`, `ctx.audit.list` and `ctx.audit.exportBatches` under `audit:read`
+- `ctx.hosts.importMany`, `importSshConfig`, `exportMany` and `registerImportNormalizer`, with the `hosts:export` capability
+- `ctx.credentials.publicKey` and `resolveKeyRefs`, `ctx.ssh.exec`, and `@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/ssh-keys`
+- `ctx.hosts.status.provide` and `ctx.hosts.activity.provide` so a plugin can own host status and recent activity, with `ctx.network.tcpProbe`, `ctx.ssh.probe`, `ctx.hosts.probeTargets` and `ctx.hosts.sessionActive`
+- `registerHostStatusIndicator` and `registerHostEditorToolbarItem`, and `order` for host badges
+- Onboarding steps can sit in a `start` section, take a `position` and `replaces` a core step
+- A plugin can provide the app name, tagline and logo through the `<id>.brandingProvider` registry key
+
+## 1.0.12
+
+Plugin API 1.4.0.
+
+### Added
+
+- `contributes.layouts` and `app.registerLayout()` for a whole-app layout, with the `ui:layout` capability. Needs `engine.api` 1.4
+- `contributes.themes` for CSS-only themes, with the `ui:theme` capability. `termix-plugin validate` checks theme CSS and `pack` ships it
+- `useShell()` gives a layout the live shell: tabs, splits, hosts, docks, the command palette and the registries. The shell's home tab is left out until some plugin registers a `dashboard` tab type
+- `TabStage` and `ShellConfirmCapture` in `@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/ui`, for a layout to place tabs
+- `validateThemeCss()` in `@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/manifest`
+- `@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/ui` also exports what a whole layout is built from: the API client, shared types, hooks, `useShellController()` and `APP_VERSION`. These reach into core, so they can change with a core release
+- `@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/testing-host` exports the registries and permission seam a layout's own tests fill directly
+- A plugin that only holds themes needs no source: `termix-plugin build` writes an empty backend and `validate` does not ask for a frontend
+- `termix-plugin validate` flags `ui:layout` or `ui:theme` with nothing contributed, and a layout plugin with no frontend
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The manifest JSON schema lists the `notify:hub` and `plugins:read` capabilities
+- Plugin tests and type checks work with the SDK linked from a local Termix checkout
+
+## 1.0.11
+
+Plugin API 1.3.0.
+
+### Added
+
+- `ctx.auth.issueUserToken()` mints a short-lived session for a user, for calling Termix's own API as them from background work. Needs `users:impersonate` and `engine.api` 1.3
+- `ctx.users.getLocale()` reads a user's UI language. Needs `users:read` and `engine.api` 1.3
+
+## 1.0.10
+
+### Changed
+
+- `termix-plugin pack` includes the plugin's `LICENSE` and `NOTICE` files, so third-party notices ship with it
+
 ## 1.0.9

+### The desktop app
+
+Set `"runtime": "desktop"` in the manifest for a plugin that only makes sense on a desktop app. It never
+loads on a server, ignores server sync and may declare `desktop:local`. Any plugin can declare
+`desktop:local` and check `ctx.desktop.local.available()` at runtime.

+`ctx.desktop.local` works on the desktop app's own backend only:
+
+- `info()`: home folder, platform, user data folder, backend port and the linked server (url and token) or null
+- `fs`: `list`, `mkdir`, `createFile`, `rename`, `ensureDir`, `exists`, `walk`, `trash`, `reveal`, `open`,
+  `openRead` and `openDownload`. Downloads stay inside the folder the user picked, links in it are refused and
+  an existing file is never replaced by accident
+- `pty.spawn()`: a local shell, stopped when the plugin stops

+## Layouts and themes
+
+A plugin can replace the whole app layout or add themes (API 1.4). Users pick both in Settings, Appearance;
+admins set the default for everyone.
+
+A layout is declared in `contributes.layouts` (`id`, `label`, optional `description` and `defaultTheme`) and
+needs the `ui:layout` capability, which admins see as high risk because a layout draws every screen. Register
+it in `activate`:
+
+```tsx
+import { useShell, type TermixApp } from "@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/frontend";
+import {
+  ShellConfirmCapture,
+  SurfaceScope,
+  TabStage,
+} from "@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/ui";
+
+function MyLayout() {
+  const shell = useShell();
+  if (!shell) return null;
+  return (
+    <div className="flex h-dvh w-screen flex-col bg-background">
+      <header>
+        {/* tabs from shell.tabs.topLevel, shell.palette.open() and so on */}
+      </header>
+      <SurfaceScope kind="tab">
+        <ShellConfirmCapture />
+        <TabStage />
+      </SurfaceScope>
+    </div>
+  );
+}
+
+export function activate(app: TermixApp) {
+  app.registerLayout({
+    id: "my-layout",
+    label: "layout.name",
+    component: MyLayout,
+  });
+}
+```
+
+- `useShell()` is the live shell with nothing drawn: tabs, splits, hosts, the left and right docks, the
+  command palette, the registries as hooks and the user. Core keeps all the state, so switching layouts keeps
+  every session.
+- `TabStage` is where tabs show. Place it anywhere; tabs are never remounted when it moves, so a terminal
+  keeps its connection. Wrap it in `SurfaceScope kind="tab"` with a `ShellConfirmCapture` inside, so
+  close questions and inline views show over the tab area. Overlays and onboarding stay in core.
+- The layout draws the command palette. Core keeps whether it is open (`palette.isOpen`, Ctrl+K calls
+  `palette.open()`) and what is in it (`usePaletteEntries`, `usePaletteGroups`, rail items, hosts).
+- The shell always keeps a home tab with the id and type `dashboard`. `useShell()` leaves it out until some
+  plugin registers a `dashboard` tab type, so a layout without a home screen has no empty tab to draw.
+- Settings, Manage and the host editor belong to Classic Layout. A layout without them should still render
+  `LookSettings` somewhere so people can switch back. `tabs.openSingleton("plugins")` opens core's own
+  Plugins tab in any layout. Switching layouts closes the tabs the old layout's plugin declared.
+- `mobileComponent` is used on phones and narrow windows. The desktop app always gets `component`.
+- Only the chosen layout's plugin is loaded. If it fails to load or crashes twice, Termix shows a repair
+  screen where people can switch, reset, update, turn it off or (for a bundled plugin) restore the copy that
+  shipped. `?safe-layout=1` opens it any time.
+- Termix has no layout of its own. The default is the bundled Classic Layout plugin
+  (https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Plugin-Classic-Layout), which is also a full example. It owns the rail,
+  sidebar, tab bar, docks, Dashboard, Manage, Settings and command palette, registers the `dashboard`,
+  `host-manager` and `settings` tab types, and offers the host list and dashboard as the components
+  `classic-layout.hostTree` and `classic-layout.dashboard` for other plugins to place with `PluginComponent`.
+  It reads the shell with `useShellController()` from `@termix-ssh/plugin-sdk/ui`, which exposes more than
+  `useShell()` and may change with Termix. A third party layout should start from `useShell()`.
+
+A theme is CSS only. Declare it in `contributes.themes` (`id`, `label`, `mode` light or dark, `css` path,
+optional `swatch` colors for the picker) with the `ui:theme` capability. The id becomes a class on `<html>`,
+so the file may only hold rules whose selectors start with `.<id>`, `:root.<id>` or `html.<id>`, optionally
+inside `@media` or `@supports`. `@import`, `url()` to another host and other at-rules are refused by
+`termix-plugin validate` and by the server. Set the same tokens core's themes set (`--background`,
+`--foreground`, `--card`, `--border`, `--muted` and the rest).
+
+A plugin that only holds themes needs no code. Leave out `src/`: `termix-plugin build` writes an empty backend and
+`validate` does not ask for a frontend. Keep the CSS in `themes/` and a test that checks it with
+`validateThemeCss()`. Notes:
+
+- A theme with the id of a built-in (`light` or `dark`) replaces core's basic copy while the plugin runs.
+- The first theme a bundled default-look plugin lists is the default for new installs.
+- Themes show in the picker in the order core lists its own, then the plugin's order.
+- A theme someone saved that no longer exists shows as System. It comes back when the plugin does.
+- Accent color, UI font, font size and density are not part of a theme. Core applies them on top.
+- Bundled Classic Themes (https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Plugin-Classic-Themes) is a full example.

Luke Gustafson ZacharyZcR Ferdina Kusumah ZacharyZcR Lukas	66e8ce6df7	v26.10.2 (#1672 ) * fix: keep concurrent ssh pool connects from overwriting each other (#1619) * fix: stop auto-accepting changed jump host keys (#1620) A jump hop whose key no longer matched the pinned fingerprint was silently accepted and the pin overwritten. Background status probes reconnect to jump hosts every cycle, so a MITM on that hop got the credentials with no user interaction. Changed jump host keys now go through the same path as any other host: prompt when there is a terminal socket, otherwise refuse. * fix(electron): validate external login URL scheme and callback port (#1621) * fix(plugins): read artifact manifest with the same tar parser as the unpack (#1622) The consent check read the first manifest.json with a hand-written tar reader, while the unpack keeps the last one and also follows pax and long-name headers. An archive with two manifests could pass the check with one capability list and get granted another. Read the manifest with node-tar, count only plain files, and refuse archives that hold more than one manifest.json. * fix: only trust the server's origin in the desktop login frame (#1624) The desktop sign-in iframe accepted AUTH_SUCCESS and system browser requests from whatever page it had navigated to, and posted replies (including 2FA temp tokens) to any origin. Messages must now come from the server's origin and replies are posted to it. The web UI also treated any framing page as the desktop app and posted the JWT to it. It now also requires the Termix-Desktop user agent. * fix: check trusted proxy login against nginx's peer, not nginx (#1625) The backend only sees the bundled nginx on loopback, so the allowlist could only work by trusting 127.0.0.1, which let any client that reached nginx log in as anyone by sending the identity headers. nginx now passes its own TCP peer (before real_ip rewriting) in X-Termix-Proxy-Peer, and loopback connections are judged by that address instead. * fix: keep foreign keys on during user data import (#1626) Import credentials before hosts and remap the file's credential ids to the ones created here, so hosts and protocol logins no longer point at another server's ids. With rows written in dependency order, the import no longer turns off SQLite foreign keys on the shared connection. The uploaded file is now removed on every exit path. * fix: enforce unique usernames (#1628) * fix: enforce unique usernames Registration checked for a taken name, hashed the password, then inserted, with nothing in the schema enforcing uniqueness. Concurrent sign-ups could create two accounts with one name, after which login, password reset, proxy login and admin lookups by username picked between them arbitrarily. Add a unique index on users.username for every dialect. Existing duplicates are renamed (later rows get a -<id> suffix, the oldest keeps the name) rather than deleted. Registration and admin user creation now return the same 409 when the insert loses the race. * fix: avoid username collisions during migration * fix: don't auto-enable synced plugins signed only by a server-sent key (#1623) * fix: don't auto-enable synced plugins signed only by a server-sent key Registry keys a linked server sends still let its plugins load on the desktop, but no longer count as a signer for switching them on or copying their grants. Keys the desktop added itself keep their trust. * fix: enforce local plugin trust across remote source labels * fix: require positive local trust for synced plugin keys * fix(desktop): harden external editor and session cookie IPC (#1627) * fix(desktop): stop the renderer choosing the external editor binary or reading the session cookie open-external-editor now launches only the editor saved from a file dialog and refuses to hand executable file types to the OS opener. The unused get-session-cookie and wait-session-cookie channels, which returned the httpOnly jwt, are removed. * fix: validate setting keys before editor authorization * fix(sidebar): sort hosts by IP address numerically (#1629) * fix(desktop): find spawn-helper in universal macOS builds (#1630) The universal build ships app-arm64.asar and app-x64.asar instead of app.asar, so node-pty's helper path rewrite never pointed at the unpacked copy and every local terminal failed with posix_spawnp failed. * fix(sync): send shared hosts with text columns in their stored form (#1631) resolveHostById turns forceKeyboardInteractive into a boolean, and the shared-host export passed it on as is. A desktop could not bind the boolean into the text column, so every shared host failed to apply. * fix: drop ssh_data.vault_profile_id so removing the vault plugin keeps hosts writable (#1633) The vault plugin renames vault_profiles to p_vault_profiles, and SQLite rewrites ssh_data's foreign key to follow it. Uninstalling the plugin then dropped p_vault_profiles and left ssh_data pointing at a missing table, so creating, cloning and deleting hosts failed with "no such table: main.p_vault_profiles". Postgres and MySQL refused the uninstall instead. The column was already copied into the vault plugin's host settings by 2.9, so retire it on every engine. The SQLite boot drop also repairs databases already in the broken state; MySQL drops the column's foreign key first. * fix(sync): let a linked desktop enable mirrored plugins it does not trust on its own (#1632) * fix(sync): let a linked desktop enable mirrored plugins it does not trust on its own * fix(sync): switch off an untrusted mirrored plugin when the server updates it * fix: require local consent for mirrored plugin activation * docs: describe consent fields on the plugin state endpoint * fix(i18n): keep Indonesian technical terms consistent (#1636) Use the English terms Indonesian users know for tunnel, snippet, deploy, file manager, remote desktop, jump host, passphrase, sidebar, toolbar, endpoint, browser and SSH agent, instead of mixing literal translations (terowongan, cuplikan, terapkan, bilah sisi, titik akhir, ...) with the English words. Match the split shortcuts to the split screen menu. Also fix the user data export description, which said secrets are encrypted while the English says they are decrypted. * fix(settings): leave user manage view when switching admin sections (#1649) The admin panel stays mounted across Settings pages, so an open user manage view kept replacing every other admin section until Back to users was clicked. Reset it whenever the selected section changes. * fix(sync): don't delete a local row when the server can't send its copy (#1650) * fix(sync): don't delete a local row when the server can't send its copy A push conflict on a live record whose server row failed to serialize came back as row: null, deleted: false, and the desktop treated that as a delete. The server now rejects that op as unavailable, the desktop never deletes on a conflict without a row, and serialization failures are logged. * fix(sync): retry temporarily unavailable records * fix: smooth host editor jumps to lower sections * chore: add changelog entries for 26.10.2 fixes * fix: stop building ssh2 native crypto in the docker image (#1644) * chore: test that an update keeps a changed auth type (#1601) * feat: option to hide the sidebar after opening a host (#1652) * feat: sort the dashboard host status card (Plugin-Host-Metrics#6) * fix: let the hover side menu overlay content instead of resizing it (Plugin-Remote-Desktop#2) * fix: say the server is down and keep retrying instead of a database error (#1637) * fix: show why a client tunnel failed to start (Plugin-Tunnels#2) * fix(sdk): skip comment-only chunks when splitting migrations * feat: setting to let the hover side menu push content again * fix: use the vite proxy for plugin sockets on any dev port * feat(sdk): let a plugin raise its public route rate limit * chore: update translations * chore: add the overview video to the readme * chore: update the overview video and add a play button to its thumbnail * feat: plugin builds bundle worker entries and import wasm and fonts as bytes * feat: plugin packs include LICENSE and NOTICE * chore: drop guacd from compose files and dev runner * chore: update remote desktop origin comment for the built-in engine * fix: show plugin names and descriptions in the UI language (#1658) * fix: show plugin names and descriptions in the UI language Read plugin.name and plugin.description from each plugin's own locale namespace, falling back to the manifest, everywhere core shows a plugin's name: the Plugins manager, onboarding picker, host editor tabs and sections, host filters and bulk actions, beta updates, interface presets and plugin crash/loading notices. * docs(sdk): document plugin.name and plugin.description locale keys --------- Co-authored-by: ZacharyZcR <zkl205305@gmail.com> * fix(hosts): reject or infer a missing authType on host create (#1664) Creating an SSH host through the API without authType hit the NOT NULL auth_type column and came back as a 500. The create route now infers the type from the credential, key or password in the body, falls back to the host defaults, and otherwise answers 400. A non-string authType is a 400 on create and update. * chore: changelog for merged plugin name and host auth type PRs * fix: move macOS split pane navigation to Cmd+Option+Arrow * fix: pick a free port for the desktop backend when 30001 is taken (#1663) * feat: build the Windows desktop app for ARM64 (#1615) * fix(sync): keep the changes cursor within the 32-bit seq column (#1665) The desktop learned the server's entity types by asking for changes after Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER. sync_records.seq is a 32-bit integer on Postgres, which rejects that bound value, so every pass needing the probe failed with 22003 out of range. The server now clamps the cursor to the largest seq the column holds and answers 400 for a cursor or limit that is not a non-negative integer. The desktop asks for a one-row page from its saved cursor instead. * fix(audit): coalesce identical plugin routine audits so they cannot flush the log (#1667) Successful plugin_as_user and plugin_service_* entries written by a plugin with the same user, action, resource and details are recorded once per 10 minutes. Failures and every other action are still written each time. * feat(plugins): publish host.created when a host is added (#1668) Plugins that keep an inventory of hosts had no way to hear about a new one short of polling. Core now publishes host.created with the same { hostId, userId } payload as host.updated wherever a host row is created: the host create route, ctx.hosts.create, JSON and SSH config bulk import, database file import, and sync writing a host it did not have yet. * fix: show the login for signed-out full-screen view links and return to them (#1669) A ?view= link opened without a session spun forever: the gate rendered the bare view when the session check failed, so the plugin runtime never started and the view never registered. A regular browser now keeps the link in sessionStorage, shows the normal login and opens the link again after any login, including redirect logins. Only same-origin paths with a view are restored. The desktop app, embedded sign-in frames and guest views keep their current behavior. * fix(desktop): apply linked server proxy headers and certificate exception to WebSockets (#1670) * fix(desktop): send linked server proxy headers on WebSocket upgrades isLinkedOrigin compared the request origin with the link's http(s) origin, so the terminal WebSocket (wss://host/...) never matched and its upgrade went out without the proxy headers and basic auth. Behind a forward-auth proxy that upgrade was redirected to the login and the terminal closed with "connection closed unexpectedly". ws and wss now count as http and https for the comparison, the same mapping the WebSocket handshake itself uses, with host and port still matched exactly. * fix(desktop): allow a linked server's self-signed certificate for its WebSockets isInvalidCertificateAllowedForUrl compared the URL with a local getOrigin copy, so wss://host never matched the link's https://host origin and an allowed self-signed certificate did not cover the terminal and tunnel sockets. It now uses linkedServer.isLinkedOrigin, which maps ws and wss the same way as the proxy headers, and the local copy is removed. * feat(sdk): let plugins mint a short-lived user session and read a user's locale (#1666) ctx.auth.issueUserToken(userId, { purpose, ttlSeconds }) gives background work a session for calling Termix's own API as an existing user. It needs users:impersonate, defaults to 300s and is capped at 900s, is stored as a normal session row marked as plugin-issued, and every issue is audited. Such sessions are refused on routes that change the user's password, second factors, API keys or linked logins. ctx.users.getLocale(userId) reads the user's UI language under users:read. SDK 1.0.11, plugin API 1.3.0. * chore: changelog for merged sync, audit, event and desktop PRs * feat: add shell.rightEdge slot so plugin panels can push the page over * chore: pin bundled plugins to the latest releases * chore: lint, format, and bump version to 26.10.2 --------- Co-authored-by: ZacharyZcR <zacharyzcr1984@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Ferdina Kusumah <19812460+FerdinaKusumah@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: ZacharyZcR <zkl205305@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Lukas <80832688+0skater0@users.noreply.github.com>	2026-10-18 00:34:50 -05:00

inontz inontz ZacharyZcR	e152bacc7c	fix(sw): stamp __TERMIX_SW_BASE_PATH__ and cache version into sw.js at build time (#1618 ) * fix(sw): stamp __TERMIX_SW_BASE_PATH__ and version into sw.js at build time vite copies public/ verbatim, so the placeholder in public/sw.js reached dist/sw.js untouched. The service worker then requested __TERMIX_SW_BASE_PATH__/favicon.ico and friends, its install promise rejected, and it never activated - while a worker from an older release kept serving its cached frontend against a newer backend. scripts/stamp-sw-build-info.cjs now runs right after vite build and replaces both placeholders in dist/sw.js: - __TERMIX_SW_BASE_PATH__ -> the base path the build used (VITE_BASE_PATH, or root-relative by default, matching vite.config.ts) - __TERMIX_CACHE_VERSION__ -> package.json version, so CACHE_NAME changes per release and the activate handler evicts the previous build's cache Closes #1617 * chore: format stamp-sw-build-info.cjs to prettier style * fix: preserve runtime service worker base paths --------- Co-authored-by: inontz <inontz@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: ZacharyZcR <zacharyzcr1984@gmail.com>	2026-10-14 08:17:40 +08:00
