WEATHER WIRE CHANGELOG ====================== 1.0.8 - 2026-09-19 ------------------ - Isolated main-screen current observations and alert retrieval so one failed product does not blank the other. - Added stale-if-error fallback using the existing doors/weatherwire/cache directory, with an explicit stale-data notice. - Added strict NHC/CPHC RSS/XML validation so malformed/error responses are never reported as "no active storms". - Reduced network wait times and added an approximately 10-second per-screen service network budget. - Added ~45-second negative caching for failed endpoints to reduce repeated failures on multi-node boards. - Hardened the filesystem cache with non-blocking per-endpoint locks, atomic writes, stale temp cleanup, and hourly GC locking. - Added a 2 MiB maximum remote-response size. - Added centralized remote-text sanitization for ANSI/VT/control sequences and safe ATDT rendering. - Replaced byte-oriented product wrapping with UTF-8/multibyte-safe wrapping and truncation. - Tightened fixed-width rendering for 80-column terminal screens. - Made observation/discussion timestamps use the selected location timezone where appropriate and kept explicit timezone labels elsewhere. - Expanded transport/error messages to distinguish timeout, DNS, HTTPS, HTTP, malformed-data, and stale-cache conditions. - Ensured the configured WeatherWire User-Agent/contact is used consistently across NWS, forecast.weather.gov, NHC, and CPHC requests. - Updated README/help/admin wording to document the reliability behavior while keeping cache files in doors/weatherwire/cache. 1.0.7 - 2026-09-19 ------------------ - Added an NHC/CPHC Tropical Center for Atlantic, Eastern Pacific, and Central Pacific basins. - Added official Tropical Weather Outlook text with paging and manual refresh. - Added active tropical cyclone Public Advisory listings and paged storm details/forecast narrative. - Added five-minute filesystem caching for NHC/CPHC tropical RSS/XML feeds. - Extended the SysOp network test and documentation to include www.nhc.noaa.gov. - Corrected the partly-cloudy ANSI artwork and rendered the cloud portion in grey. 1.0.6 - 2026-09-18 ------------------ - Replaced the night icon with a compact filled yellow crescent and white stars. - Reworked nighttime clear-weather ANSI art as a yellow crescent moon with white stars. - Moved all transient NWS response caching out of ATDT SQLite and into weatherwire/cache/*.json. - Persistent settings and caller userloc:* records remain in ATDT door_kv. - Added atomic filesystem cache writes to protect concurrent callers from partial JSON files. - Kept each endpoint's normal TTL plus the six-hour post-expiration purge grace period. - Filesystem garbage collection runs at most once per hour and removes abandoned temp files. - Filesystem cache is used directly with no legacy SQLite cache migration or marker file. - Added .htaccess/index.html protection for the cache directory and cache status in the SysOp panel. - Shifted the main-screen Current Conditions heading and detail rows down one line for improved spacing. - Centered transient main-screen status notes within the right-hand conditions/alerts pane while keeping them on row 18. 1.0.5 - 2026-09-18 ------------------ - Added automatic NWS cache garbage collection. - Each cached response keeps its existing endpoint TTL; the row is deleted six hours after that TTL expires. - Garbage collection runs opportunistically at most once per hour during normal Weather Wire use. - Existing pre-1.0.5 cache rows are handled conservatively and are upgraded when reused. - Saved caller locations and Weather Wire configuration are never purged. 1.0.4 - 2026-09-18 ------------------ - Rebuilt the moon as fixed-width character-grid art so every row stays aligned. - Rebuilt both active-alert and all-clear artwork with identical 21-column rectangular frames. - Removed slash/backslash corners from alert status artwork to avoid skew in terminal fonts. 1.0.3 - 2026-09-18 ------------------ - Q now exits Weather Wire only from the main screen. - Added an explicit M = Main option on every secondary screen. - Replaced the active-alert artwork with a symmetric fixed-width red banner. - Clear-weather artwork now uses a sun by day and moon by night for the selected location. - Day/night is calculated from the location's NWS time zone and local sunrise/sunset. - Main screen now displays the selected location's local time. 1.0.2 - 2026-09-18 ------------------ - Added ANSI weather artwork on the main screen for clear, clouds, rain, wind, storms, snow, and related conditions. - Added a red ANSI alert graphic on the main screen whenever active alerts exist for the selected area. - Added ENTER-key cycling through Current, Forecast, Hourly, Alerts, Discussion, and back to the main screen. - Replaced generic location examples with New York City examples in the door prompts and admin UI. 1.0.1 - 2026-09-18 ------------------ - Removed installation-specific ZIP, city, and coordinate examples from the source. - Location prompts now use generic format labels only. 1.0.0 - 2026-09-18 ------------------ - Initial ATDT Native PHP door release. - Official NWS current conditions, forecasts, hourly forecasts, alerts, and Area Forecast Discussions. - Per-caller locations plus optional board-wide default location. - ZIP/city location resolution through forecast.weather.gov. - NWS API response caching. - ATDT SysOp admin panel and outbound HTTPS connectivity test.
