Adds the complete TREK documentation wiki covering installation, trip planning, admin panel, MCP/AI integration, addons, and operations. Also fixes encrypt-at-rest gaps: mapbox_access_token, Synology credentials, per-user webhook/ntfy tokens, and photo passphrases are now rotated by migrate-encryption.ts and stored encrypted via settingsService.

Places and Search
Places are the building blocks of your trip. You can add them by searching, pasting a URL, entering coordinates, or importing a file.
Adding a place
Click + Add Place at the top of the Places sidebar to open the Place form. You can also right-click anywhere on the map to create a place at that exact location — the address is reverse-geocoded and pre-filled automatically.
Searching for a place
Type in the search box at the top of the form. After 2 or more characters, with a 300 ms debounce, suggestions appear in a dropdown.
- Use ↑ / ↓ to navigate results, Enter to select, Esc to dismiss.
- Search results are biased toward the geographic center of your existing trip places. When those places span more than ~500 km, the bias is skipped.
With a Google Maps API key
Admin: A Google Maps API key is configured in User-Settings.
When a key is present, the autocomplete uses the Google Places API, which can return ratings, opening hours, photos, and phone numbers from Google's database.
Without a Google Maps API key
TREK falls back to OpenStreetMap (Nominatim) automatically — no API key needed. A notice appears above the search box explaining that OpenStreetMap is in use and that photos, ratings, and opening hours are unavailable. Results include name, address, and coordinates.
Pasting a Google Maps URL
Paste a maps.app.goo.gl/…, goo.gl/maps/…, or maps.google.*/… URL directly into the search box and press the search button. TREK resolves it server-side and populates the name, address, and coordinates.
Entering coordinates manually
Type or paste a lat, lng pair (e.g. 48.8566, 2.3522) into the Latitude field. TREK detects the comma-separated pair and fills both coordinate fields at once.
Place fields
| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| Name | Required |
| Description | Free text |
| Notes | Free text, max 2 000 characters |
| Address | Free text |
| Latitude / Longitude | Decimal degrees |
| Category | Pick an existing category or type a new name to create one inline (default color #6366f1, icon MapPin) |
| Start time / End time | Shown only when editing an existing place |
| Website | URL |
| File attachments | Images or PDFs — click the Paperclip icon or paste from the clipboard |
Two inline warnings are shown when editing times: one if the end time is set to a value before or equal to the start time, and one if the times overlap with another place already assigned to the same day.
Importing multiple places
Drag a .gpx, .kml, or .kmz file onto the Places sidebar to import all waypoints or features at once. You can also import a saved-list share URL using the Import list button in the sidebar header — both Google Maps and Naver Maps list URLs are supported.
Admin: Google Maps API key is set in User-Settings. Without it, OSM search is used automatically.
