# Workspace Dashboard Feature
|
|
|
|
This library owns the workspace dashboard rails UI. The dashboard is a
|
|
read-only surface over existing playlist, recent, favorites, EPG, and Xtream
|
|
catalog data; it should not introduce Electron IPC, SQLite schema, or route
|
|
contracts on its own.
|
|
|
|
## Dashboard Surfaces
|
|
|
|
The dashboard renders a surface only when the matching setting is enabled. Data
|
|
rails also require the underlying data slice to have at least one item.
|
|
|
|
- `hero` shows the large top banner for the most recent global item. When that
|
|
item is a live TV channel, the hero looks up the current XMLTV programme and
|
|
displays the programme title, time range, and EPG progress bar when data is
|
|
available.
|
|
- `continueWatching` shows recent movies and series from
|
|
`DashboardDataService.globalRecentVodItems()` using cover cards with playback
|
|
progress when a saved resume position is available.
|
|
- `liveFavorites` shows favorited live TV channels from
|
|
`DashboardDataService.globalFavoriteLiveItems()` using the channel layout
|
|
with EPG title, time range, and progress when XMLTV data is available.
|
|
- `recentlyWatchedLive` shows recently watched live TV channels from
|
|
`DashboardDataService.globalRecentLiveItems()` using the same channel layout.
|
|
- `favoriteMoviesAndSeries` shows favorited movies and series from
|
|
`DashboardDataService.globalFavoriteItems()`, excluding live favorites, using
|
|
cover cards.
|
|
- `recentSources` shows recently used playlist/source entries.
|
|
- `xtreamRecentlyAdded` shows recently added Xtream catalog items.
|
|
|
|
## Settings
|
|
|
|
Per-surface visibility lives on `Settings.dashboardRails` as a
|
|
`DashboardRailsSettings` object. Every surface defaults to enabled. Stored
|
|
settings are deep-merged with `DEFAULT_DASHBOARD_RAILS_SETTINGS` by
|
|
`SettingsStore`, so existing users and older partial settings keep newly added
|
|
surfaces visible unless they explicitly turn them off.
|
|
|
|
The global `showDashboard` flag remains a top-level `Settings` property because
|
|
workspace startup and route guards already depend on that contract. The Settings
|
|
UI groups `showDashboard` and the per-surface checkboxes in the Dashboard
|
|
section. When `showDashboard` is off, the per-surface checkboxes are disabled
|
|
because the dashboard route itself is hidden.
|
|
|
|
## Navigation
|
|
|
|
Rail cards use the navigation state provided by `DashboardDataService` for the
|
|
underlying item. Rail "See all" links may also pass router state:
|
|
|
|
- live rails open the relevant collection on Live TV.
|
|
- cover rails for movies/series open Global Recent or Global Favorites on
|
|
Movies when movie items are present, otherwise on Series.
|
|
|
|
This keeps the global collection pages from defaulting to Live TV when a
|
|
dashboard rail is clearly about movies or series.
