4grayandClaude Fable 5 1a6af75761 feat(settings): per-section pages with unsaved-changes bar (#1384)
* feat(settings): split settings into per-section pages with an unsaved-changes bar

Replace the single scrolling settings page with routed section pages
(/workspace/settings/:section): the context-panel rail links each section,
only the active section renders, and unknown or capability-gated sections
redirect to General. The shared form lives on the parent component, so
staged edits survive section switches; a floating unsaved-changes bar
(Save/Discard) replaces the always-visible footer Save button. Rail links
navigate with replaceUrl so Back still leaves settings in one step.

Along the way:
- delete the unreachable settings dialog mode and the dead
  AppPortalNavigationActionsService with both of its never-injected DI
  tokens (PORTAL_NAVIGATION_ACTIONS, PLAYLIST_PLAYER_ACTIONS)
- delete the scroll-spy directive and pendingScrollTarget plumbing
- revive the EPG panel's "Open EPG settings" empty-state button as a deep
  link to /workspace/settings/epg; the M3U player now reports
  m3u-needs-setup only when the channel has no programmes and no EPG
  source exists in settings or on the playlist itself
- load TMDB cache stats when the Metadata page opens (the section
  component now only exists while its page is open)
- add SETTINGS.UNSAVED_CHANGES / SETTINGS.DISCARD_CHANGES to all 19 locales

* feat(settings): confirm before leaving with unsaved changes

Add settingsUnsavedChangesGuard (canDeactivate on the :section route) with
a three-action dialog: save and leave, leave without saving, keep editing.
The guard only intercepts leaving the settings AREA — section switches
share the one settings form and pass unconditionally, so the dialog can
never nag while moving between pages. A failed save cancels the navigation
instead of silently dropping the edits it promised to keep; leaving
without saving also reverts the live theme preview. Save-and-leave is
disabled while the form is invalid, with a hint explaining why.

New SETTINGS.UNSAVED_DIALOG_* keys in all 19 locales.

* fix(settings): stage cover size and EPG view mode; adapt e2e to section pages

Cover size and EPG view mode were the only two controls that persisted
eagerly on click, which made Discard (and leave-without-saving) unable to
revert them: hydrateFromStore() faithfully reloaded the just-persisted
edit. They now stage in the form like every other setting and reach the
store on Save. Review finding by Greptile (P1) and Codex.

E2E suites that walk through settings are updated for one-section-page
rendering (epg, backup-roundtrip, xtream-epg, remote-control) and for the
staged cover size (downloads asserts the dataset after Save); the EPG icon
fallback test saves before leaving settings so the new unsaved-changes
dialog does not block its navigation.

Release notes (.changes/)

Every PR with a user-visible change drops one file here describing that change in plain language. At release time tools/release/build-release-notes.mjs turns the accumulated files into the GitHub release body, the CHANGELOG.md section, and a blog-post scaffold for the website — then deletes them.

The point is to write the note while the context is still fresh, instead of reconstructing three months of work from commit titles at release time.

File

Name it <area>-<short-slug>.md, e.g. .changes/playback-up-next-rail.md.

---
type: feature
area: playback
issues: [1187]
screenshot: up-next-rail
---

Series now show an "Up Next" rail beside the player on wide windows: the rest
of the current season, watch progress, and click-to-play inline.
Field Required Value
type yes breaking, feature, fix, perf, or internal
area yes lowercase slug, same as the conventional-commit scope
issues no issue numbers this closes — [1187] or 1187
screenshot no slug from tools/release/screenshots.manifest.json

There is no version field. The release version is chosen deliberately at release time, not derived from these files.

You never write a PR number: the generator resolves it from the commit that added the file.

Writing the body

One to three sentences, present tense, written for a user, not a reviewer. The body is capped at 400 characters — depth belongs in the blog post.

  • ❌ "Refactor WebVideoControlsAdapter to hoist volume state into the session"

  • ✅ "The player now remembers volume between episodes"

  • ❌ "Fix off-by-one in resolveEnrichmentSeasonNumber"

  • ✅ "Series whose title carries a season marker no longer show the wrong season"

type: internal records invisible maintenance. Internal notes stay collapsed in CHANGELOG.md, are omitted from the blog scaffold, and are removed from the authored public GitHub body by extract-changelog-section.mjs --public. GitHub's generated commit list remains separate. An internal-only release can therefore have an empty authored body.

When a note is not needed

The gate auto-exempts website, E2E and mock-server apps, *.spec.{js,ts}, *.e2e.{js,ts}, snapshots, any /testing/ path, and Markdown. For other test-only, documentation, CI/workflow, or pure-refactor changes under apps//libs/, apply no-release-note when no user-visible note is warranted.

Commands

pnpm run release:notes:validate
pnpm run release:notes:github
pnpm run release:notes:changelog
pnpm run release:notes:blog
node tools/release/build-release-notes.mjs --consume

The release version comes from the root package.json — bump it first, then generate. --version 0.24.0 overrides it to preview a release before the bump:

pnpm run release:notes:github --version 0.24.0

A bare -- separator is accepted and ignored, so the npm habit of pnpm run release:notes:github -- --version 0.24.0 works too: pnpm forwards that separator to the script rather than consuming it the way npm does.

--validate and --format github only read and print. --format changelog and --format blog write their target file (rerunning changelog for the same version replaces that section rather than duplicating it). Only --consume deletes anything.

The release sequence is: bump the version → release:notes:changelog → release:notes:blog → --consume → commit → tag → push. The tag build then extracts the new CHANGELOG.md section into the GitHub release body (tools/release/extract-changelog-section.mjs) and fails the release if the section is missing — a tag cut without the changelog step cannot silently ship PR-title-only notes.

The website publishes one post per minor version (v0-18 … v0-22), and release screenshots live under the matching blog/v0-24/ directory. A patch release therefore edits the existing post rather than generating a new one, so --format blog refuses to overwrite unless you pass --force.

Screenshots

pnpm run release:screenshots captures every manifest shot in dark and light against the built app plus the Xtream mock server — never a real account. The run is fail-closed: it proves the real ~/.iptvnator/databases directory (including the SQLite WAL sidecars, checked after Electron exits) was not touched, launches the app with an allowlisted environment, records and blocks all non-localhost traffic, scans every frame for external resources and credential-shaped text, and asserts TMDB enrichment stays disabled. Frames are staged outside the repository and published only once every shot and every guard has passed.

Adding a shot for a new feature = one entry in tools/release/screenshots.manifest.json (plus, if navigation is new, one named action in tools/release/capture-navigation.ts).

pnpm nx run electron-backend:build-e2e   # once, before capturing
pnpm run release:screenshots             # all shots, both themes
pnpm run release:screenshots -- --only dashboard --theme dark
pnpm run release:screenshots -- --release v0-24
