- Mapbox GL provider alongside Leaflet for trip and journey maps (opt-in in
settings with token, style presets incl. 3D on satellite, quality mode,
experimental badge).
- GPS "blue dot" with heading cone on mobile; three-state FAB (off / show /
follow), geodesic accuracy circle, desktop-hidden since browser IP geo is
too coarse for navigation.
- Marker drift fix: outer wrap no longer carries inline position/transform,
so mapbox's translate keeps the pin pinned at every zoom and pitch.
- Journey map popup (mapbox-gl): Apple-Maps-style tooltip on marker
highlight/click showing entry title + location / date subline.
- Journey feed reorder: up/down controls to the left of each entry reorder
sort_order within a day. Server endpoint, optimistic store update, rollback
on failure.
- Journey entry editor: desktop modal now centers over the feed column only,
backdrop still blurs the whole page (map included).
- Scroll-sync guard on journey: marker click locks the sync so smooth-scroll
can't steer the highlight to a neighbouring entry mid-animation.
- Misc: map top-padding aligned with hero, live/synced badges replaced by a
compact back-button in the hero, skeleton entries no longer pollute the
journey map, journey detail no longer shows map on mobile path when
combined view is active.
Introduces a TransportModal for creating/editing flight, train, car, and cruise
reservations that span multiple days. Transport entries now break the map route
into disconnected segments so the polyline reflects actual travel legs.
- Add TransportModal with airport/location pickers, multi-day date range, and all transport types
- Extend DB schema with end_day_id on reservations (migration 110) and backfill from existing dates
- Refactor useRouteCalculation to emit [][][number,number] segments split at transport boundaries
- Update MapView, DayPlanSidebar, ReservationsPanel, TripPlannerPage to wire up transport flow
- Add transport i18n keys across all 15 languages
Add type-selector UI in the file import modal letting users choose which
GPX elements (waypoints, routes, tracks) or KML/KMZ elements (points,
paths) to import. KML LineString placemarks are now imported as path
places with route_geometry.
Performance improvements:
- Extract MemoPlaceRow with React.memo and contentVisibility:auto to cut
unnecessary re-renders in PlacesSidebar
- Add weatherQueue to cap concurrent weather fetches at 3
- Replace sequential per-place deletes with a single bulkDelete API call
(new DELETE /places/bulk endpoint + deletePlacesMany service)
- Memoize atlas/photo/weather service calls to avoid redundant requests
- Add multi-select mode to PlacesSidebar for bulk operations
Add large GPX/KML/KMZ fixtures for integration/perf testing and two
profiler analysis scripts under scripts/.
P0 — stop the bleeding:
- Honor place.image_url in MapView and TripPlannerPage to skip redundant fetchPhoto calls
- Trim Place Details field mask (drop reviews/editorialSummary from default; new getPlaceDetailsExpanded for inspector)
- Admin toggle places_photos_enabled (default ON) to kill Google photo fetches under quota pressure; Wikimedia unaffected
- Return { photoUrl: null } instead of 204 so client handles disabled state cleanly
P1 — structural fix:
- New placePhotoCache service: persistent disk cache at uploads/photos/google/<sha1>.jpg, atomic writes, stampede dedup via in-flight Map
- Migrations 105-107: google_place_photo_meta table, place_details_cache table, backfill signed Google URLs to stable proxy URLs
- getPlacePhoto rewrites to fetch image bytes directly, store on disk, return /api/maps/place-photo/:id/bytes proxy URL
- Stable proxy URLs written to places.image_url — survive container restarts, no expiry
- New GET /api/maps/place-photo/:placeId/bytes route serving cached files with long-lived Cache-Control
- Place Details DB row cache with 7-day TTL; ?refresh=1 escape hatch
- photoService fast-path: proxy URLs bypass the mapsApi round-trip and go straight to urlToBase64
Bug fixes:
- MapView now requests base64 thumbs for places with proxy image_url (markers were showing color fallback)
- createPlaceIcon accepts /api/maps/place-photo/ URLs as interim fallback while thumb generates
- setSelectedAssignmentId ReferenceError in mobile day-detail handler (use selectAssignment)
- Remove redundant decodeURIComponent on already-decoded Express route param
- Use SHA1 hash for disk filenames to prevent coords:lat:lng pseudo-ID collisions
- Add checkSsrf guard to Wikimedia byte fetch
- Tighten migration 107 LIKE filter to avoid rewriting manually-pasted Google image URLs
- Validate enabled is boolean on PUT /admin/places-photos
- Drop aggressive iconCache.clear() on every thumb arrival
Observability:
- googleFetch() wrapper counts and debug-logs every outbound Google API call with running total
Adds from/to endpoints to flight/train/cruise/car reservations with
live map rendering. Flights use geodesic arcs and a curved duration +
distance badge; train/car/cruise render as straight or geodesic lines
with endpoint markers. Airports come from an embedded OurAirports
database (~3200 airports, offline-capable); train/cruise/car locations
via Nominatim. Per-trip connection toggle sits in the day plan
sidebar, persisted in localStorage. Clicking a map endpoint opens the
existing transport detail popup. New display setting toggles endpoint
labels on the map. Migration 105 adds the reservation_endpoints table
plus needs_review flag; existing flights are backfilled from their
IATA metadata on server startup.
- Map pans up when DayDetailPanel is open so route markers aren't hidden
- Files lightbox: clicking dark background closes lightbox again
- Memories lightbox: clicking dark background closes lightbox again
Store & re-render optimization:
- TripPlannerPage uses selective Zustand selectors instead of full store
- placesSlice only updates affected days on place update/delete
- Route calculation only reacts to selected day's assignments
- DayPlanSidebar uses stable action refs instead of full store
Map marker performance:
- Shared photoService for PlaceAvatar and MapView (single cache, no duplicate requests)
- Client-side base64 thumbnail generation via canvas (CORS-safe for Wikimedia)
- Map markers use base64 data URL <img> tags for smooth zoom (no external image decode)
- Sidebar uses same base64 thumbnails with IntersectionObserver for visible-first loading
- Icon cache prevents duplicate L.divIcon creation
- MarkerClusterGroup with animate:false and optimized chunk settings
- Photo fetch deduplication and batched state updates
Server optimizations:
- Wikimedia image size reduced to 400px (from 600px)
- Photo cache: 5min TTL for errors (was 12h), prevents stale 404 caching
- Removed unused image-proxy endpoint
UX improvements:
- Splash screen with plane animation during initial photo preload
- Markdown rendering in DayPlanSidebar place descriptions
- Missing i18n keys added, all 12 languages synced to 1376 keys
On mobile/touch devices, Leaflet tooltips disappear immediately on tap
since there is no hover state. This makes the info bubble permanent for
the selected marker on touch devices so it stays readable.
Fixes#249
- Category filter is now a multi-select dropdown with checkboxes
- PlaceAvatar: replace 200ms polling intervals with event-based
notification + React.memo for major performance improvement
- Map photo fetches: concurrency limited to 3 + lazy loading on images
- PlacesSidebar: content-visibility + useMemo for smooth scrolling
- Accommodation labels: check-out now appears before check-in on same day
- Timed places auto-sort chronologically when time is added
Live location:
- Crosshair button on the map toggles GPS tracking
- Blue dot shows live position with accuracy circle (<500m)
- Uses watchPosition for continuous updates
- Button turns blue when active, click again to stop
Auto-sort:
- Places with a time now auto-sort chronologically among other
timed items (transports, other timed places)
- Adding a time to a place immediately moves it to the correct
position in the timeline
- Untimed places keep their manual order_index
