* test(performance): count startup phases and SQL statements for the J1 launch journey
Implements plan item A2. With IPTVNATOR_PERF_CAPTURE=1 the main process
keeps named counters and registers a main-only performance:read-counters
IPC handler; without the flag nothing is counted and the handler does not
exist.
- debug-trace.ts owns the registry; traceStartupPhase replaces the
trace('startup', ...) sites and counts main.startupPhases.
- The database worker counts executed statements through better-sqlite3's
Statement prototype (the verbose callback expands every statement and
made bulk inserts 2-4x slower) and posts the count over its message
port, flushed before every other worker message. The main-thread shared
connection is counted through a new connection observer in the shared
database library.
- The first main window freezes main.modulesRegisteredBeforeWindow at
creation and main.sqlStatementsBeforeReadyToShow at ready-to-show.
- The journey gate drops the ready-to-show that Electron emits for the
about:blank detour, so the app sees the real document's first paint,
and taps the counters handler; the J1 record reads both counters after
the renderer probe completes.

* test(database): require one SQL statement per exec during initialization
The performance capture counts one exec call as one statement, because
SQL cannot be split reliably in the counter (trigger bodies contain
semicolons). The historical-upgrade driver now wraps exec on every
connection initDatabase opens and fails on a batch, so that counting
assumption holds for the fresh profile and all historical schemas.
Documents the definition in the counter and the architecture docs.

* test(performance): count SQL statements only for the launch journey
Codex review: the M3U import, refresh-cancellation and Xtream benchmarks
also run with IPTVNATOR_PERF_CAPTURE=1, so the statement hook wrapped
every row of their bulk inserts and changed what they measure.
SQL counting now also needs IPTVNATOR_PERF_COUNT_SQL=1, which only the
launch journey sets; a harness test fails if another source sets it.
Startup phases, the window snapshot and the read handler stay on the
capture flag. Without SQL counting no ready-to-show listener is attached,
so a zero is never reported for statements nobody counted.

# Electron debugging and tracing
|
|
|
|
Use this procedure for Electron/CDP tasks. Read the available `electron` skill
|
|
when automating the desktop app. These commands assume a bootstrapped worktree.
|
|
|
|
## Start and attach
|
|
|
|
- Start the Electron development app with: `pnpm nx serve electron-backend`
|
|
- Package-script equivalent: `pnpm run serve:backend`
|
|
- Electron is configured to start with: `--remote-debugging-port=9222`
|
|
- Connect Chrome DevTools Protocol tools to: `127.0.0.1:9222`
|
|
- For Electron automation/debugging tasks, use the `electron` skill
|
|
- Do not auto-open DevTools during normal CDP automation. In development, DevTools is opt-in via `ELECTRON_OPEN_DEVTOOLS=1`.
|
|
- If DevTools is open, `agent-browser --cdp 9222 ...` may attach to the DevTools page instead of the IPTVnator window. Symptoms: `tab list` shows `about:blank`, snapshots are empty, and screenshots are black.
|
|
- If that happens, inspect targets with `curl http://127.0.0.1:9222/json/list` and connect directly to the IPTVnator page websocket from the `webSocketDebuggerUrl` field.
|
|
- The app holds a single-instance lock (`acquireSingleInstanceLock` in `apps/electron-backend/src/app/services/single-instance.ts`): a second launch against the same `userData` quits immediately and focuses the running window. To attach a second CDP-enabled instance to the same profile, set `IPTVNATOR_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES=1` — knowing that only one of the two processes will own the renderer's IndexedDB, so settings written by the other are lost. Before focusing, the guard forwards the second launch's argv to `onSecondInstance`, which is how a playlist path handed to an already-running app reaches the open queue.
|
|
|
|
### Trace / Debug Startup
|
|
|
|
- Full startup tracing:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
IPTVNATOR_TRACE_STARTUP=1 pnpm nx serve electron-backend
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Narrower trace flags:
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_TRACE_IPC=1` traces renderer `window.electron.*` bridge calls
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_TRACE_DB=1` traces DB worker requests and request-scoped DB events
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_TRACE_SQL=1` traces SQLite statements in the main process and DB worker
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_TRACE_WINDOW=1` traces BrowserWindow lifecycle and unresponsive events
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_TRACE_PLAYER=1` traces external-player activity and bounded Embedded MPV runtime-probe stderr
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_TRACE_RENDERER_CONSOLE=1` mirrors renderer console output into the Electron terminal
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_PERF_CAPTURE=1` enables development/test-only, redacted M3U and Xtream preload IPC request/completion markers plus count-only M3U acquire/parse/normalize, Xtream main network/JSON-transform/success-response-ready/cancel-dispatch, and renderer store phase capture; renderer wrappers emit only while the benchmark installs its Symbol hook, benchmark tooling sets the flag explicitly, and production launches must leave it unset. It also keeps count-only main-process counters (startup phases, database worker SQL statements, and their values at main-window creation and `ready-to-show`) and registers the main-only `performance:read-counters` IPC handler, which the preload does not expose; see [performance journeys](../architecture/performance-journeys.md)
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_PERF_COUNT_SQL=1`, together with `IPTVNATOR_PERF_CAPTURE=1`, also counts every SQL statement of the main-process and database-worker connections for `main.sqlStatementsBeforeReadyToShow`; it wraps each statement execution, including every row of a bulk insert, so only the launch journey sets it and the import benchmarks leave it unset
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_PERF_WORKER_PROFILING=1` enables development/test-only, request-scoped worker receive/work/response-post timestamps, thread CPU, event-loop utilization/delay, count-only playlist serialization/SQLite write/read/deserialization plus Xtream category/content/cache-clear/delete/in-source-search phase events, profiling-only worker cancel-receipt acknowledgements, valid-sample-counted isolate peak memory, and the database worker's idle-only one-shot post-GC heap probe; overlapping database requests are explicitly invalidated instead of misattributed, the performance benchmark sets the flag automatically, and production launches must leave it unset
|
|
- `IPTVNATOR_DISABLE_COMPILE_CACHE=1` disables the main-process V8 compile cache; `IPTVNATOR_COMPILE_CACHE_DIR=<dir>` relocates it. The startup trace reports the outcome as `compile-cache`
|
|
|
|
- Settings, portal request/response, and trace payloads must use
|
|
`@iptvnator/shared/logging` or the redacting portal logger before reaching
|
|
`console.*`; never log raw credentials while debugging.
|
|
|
|
- If local Nx state gets weird before a rerun:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pnpm nx reset
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### agent-browser (global install)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser --cdp 9222 tab list
|
|
agent-browser --cdp 9222 tab 1
|
|
agent-browser --cdp 9222 snapshot -i -c -d 4
|
|
agent-browser --cdp 9222 screenshot /tmp/iptvnator-cdp.png
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Fallback
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx --yes agent-browser --cdp 9222 tab list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### DevTools Workaround
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ELECTRON_OPEN_DEVTOOLS=1 pnpm nx serve electron-backend
|
|
curl http://127.0.0.1:9222/json/list
|
|
agent-browser connect ws://127.0.0.1:9222/devtools/page/<iptvnator-page-id>
|
|
agent-browser screenshot /tmp/iptvnator-cdp.png
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## E2E process cleanup and packaged diagnostics
|
|
|
|
Playwright launches Electron through `cmd.exe` on Windows. If graceful E2E
|
|
shutdown times out, terminate that process tree with `taskkill /T /F`; killing
|
|
only `electronApp.process()` can leave Electron holding the temporary profile
|
|
and make the next launch exit on the single-instance lock. The E2E workflow
|
|
checks this against a real Windows shell and child process. Test cleanup must
|
|
target only its own launch PID, never all Electron or IPTVnator processes.
|
|
Cleanup confirms process exit even if Playwright's close promise fails or
|
|
never settles. If termination fails, it retries and then throws instead of
|
|
allowing a relaunch against a potentially locked profile.
|
|
Capture the Node child-process handle immediately after launch and retain it
|
|
in a WeakMap keyed by the Electron application for cleanup and preparation
|
|
failures. This binding follows the application when restart callers replace
|
|
only the application/window fields on their fixture. After the last window
|
|
closes on Linux,
|
|
Electron can exit before cleanup begins; Playwright disposes its dispatcher,
|
|
so calling `electronApp.process()` at that point can throw even after a clean
|
|
exit. The retained handle still provides the actual exit code and signal.
|
|
|
|
The Linux portable build uploads `packaged-frame-copy-smoke` reports and traces
|
|
even when the smoke fails. Check the paused-frame screenshot and trace before
|
|
classifying a zero rendered-frame signal as an infrastructure flake.
|
|
The Snap and Flatpak `--embedded-mpv-runtime-probe` launches in
|
|
`build-and-make.yaml` run under GNU `timeout --verbose -k 10 300` with
|
|
`ELECTRON_ENABLE_LOGGING=1`, so a main process that throws before app ready
|
|
and blocks on Electron's uncaught-exception dialog under xvfb fails within
|
|
five minutes with a distinct `::error::` (exit 124, or 137 after timeout's
|
|
announced KILL escalation) and its stderr in the step log, instead of holding
|
|
the job until the 120-minute limit.
|
|
|
|
## Main-process ownership
|
|
|
|
The process entry is `apps/electron-backend/src/main.entry.ts` (built to
|
|
`dist/apps/electron-backend/main.js`): it enables the V8 compile cache under
|
|
`userData/v8-compile-cache` and then requires the application bundle,
|
|
`main.app.js`, built from `apps/electron-backend/src/main.ts`. Before the window
|
|
loads, `main.ts` registers only what the renderer can call before its first paint
|
|
(window state, the close guard, playlist-open requests, request-header shims);
|
|
everything else, including the database, portal, EPG, download, player,
|
|
remote-control and update IPC, lives in
|
|
`apps/electron-backend/src/app/startup/deferred-events.ts`, built as the
|
|
`deferred-events.js` chunk and loaded inside the window's `did-start-loading`
|
|
listener. That import and its registrations finish within the same task, so no
|
|
renderer `invoke` can find a missing handler (`app/startup/deferred-bootstrap.ts`
|
|
holds the scheduler and its test); the startup trace reports it as
|
|
`deferred-events:start` and `deferred-events:done`. The cache is
|
|
disposable; `IPTVNATOR_DISABLE_COMPILE_CACHE=1` turns it off and
|
|
`IPTVNATOR_COMPILE_CACHE_DIR` relocates it (E2E runs keep it inside
|
|
`IPTVNATOR_E2E_DATA_DIR`). nx-electron packages the backend through an
|
|
allowlist, so `apps/electron-backend/project.json` lists `main.app.js` and
|
|
`deferred-events.js` under the `files` option of the `package` and `make`
|
|
targets, and `verify:package-layout` fails when any of the entry files is missing
|
|
from `app.asar`. The preload is
|
|
`apps/electron-backend/src/app/api/main.preload.ts`, with handlers under
|
|
`apps/electron-backend/src/app/events/`. The window follows the saved startup mode
|
|
(normal/maximized/fullscreen); `--fullscreen` overrides a single launch. Use
|
|
[workspace shell](../architecture/workspace-shell.md) for window behavior,
|
|
[DB worker](../architecture/sqlite-db-worker.md) for worker ownership and
|
|
[Electron security](../architecture/electron-security.md) for bridge boundaries.
