# Datarhei — Dragon Fork

## v0.2 backlog (2026-05-06)

Completes the open v0.2 issues from the post-GUI-ship backlog.
Resolves issues #11, #12, #13, #14.

### Added

- **WebRTC Prometheus metrics** — eleven metrics in the
  `dragonfork_webrtc_*` namespace using RED-method principles.
  Hybrid instrumentation: direct `client_golang` counters/histograms
  for hot-path WHEP routes and ICE establishment in `app/webrtc/metrics.go`,
  plus a snapshot collector for gauges in `prometheus/webrtc.go`.
  Metrics: `whep_requests_total`, `whep_request_duration_seconds`,
  `ice_establishment_duration_seconds`, `ice_failures_total`,
  `codec_mismatches_total`, `cap_rejections_total`,
  `ffmpeg_leg_failures_total`, `active_streams`, `active_peers`,
  `udp_ports_in_use`. Closes #11.

- **Grafana observability stack** in `deploy/truenas/core/`:
  Prometheus v2.55 and Grafana OSS 11.3 containers on a `dragonfork-mon`
  bridge network reaching Core via `host.docker.internal`. Pre-loaded
  WebRTC Health dashboard (5 rows: WHEP API, ICE, streams/peers, capacity,
  silent-degradation canary). Four pre-loaded Prometheus alert rules.
  Deploy upgrade: add `GRAFANA_ADMIN_PASSWORD` to `.env`,
  `docker compose pull && docker compose up -d`. Closes #11.

- **Docker image CI publish workflow** at `.forgejo/workflows/publish.yml`.
  Triggers on semver tags. Builds multi-arch (`linux/amd64` + `linux/arm64`)
  and pushes to the configured registry (`REGISTRY` repo variable,
  defaults to `ghcr.io`). Requires `REGISTRY_TOKEN` secret and optional
  `REGISTRY_USER` / `IMAGE_NAME` variables. Layer cache via GitHub Actions
  cache. Closes #12.

- **Upstream rebase policy** at `docs/REBASE.md`. Documents monthly
  cadence, rebase-not-merge strategy, Dragon Fork divergence boundaries,
  pre/post-rebase checklist, vendored-dependency procedure, first-rebase
  runbook, and record-keeping table. First rebase against upstream is
  pending (to be run locally per the procedure in `docs/REBASE.md`).
  Closes #13.

- **WHEP sustained load test** at `test/load/sustained.go`.
  Headless Go program (`//go:build ignore`, run with `go run`) that drives
  N concurrent WHEP subscribers against a single stream for a configurable
  duration. Measures: ICE establishment (p50/p95), jitter (RFC 3550 running
  average), packet loss estimate (sequence-number gaps), packets received.
  Outputs a markdown report to `test/load/results/`. Staggered connection
  setup, trickle-ICE, and graceful DELETE on teardown. Closes #14.

- **`core/webrtc.Peer.Connected()` channel** — closed on first
  `PeerConnectionStateConnected` event. Required by the ICE establishment
  histogram (allows async measurement after the WHEP POST returns).

### Changed

- `deploy/truenas/core/docker-compose.yml`: adds `prom` and `grafana`
  services + `dragonfork-mon` bridge network + named volumes. `core`
  service is unchanged (stays on `network_mode: host`).
- `app/webrtc/handler.go`: WHEP route handlers now record request duration,
  status code, codec mismatch, and cap rejection metrics. `tearDownStreamPeers`
  records FFmpeg leg failures when peers were active at stop time.
- `app/webrtc/subsystem.go`: adds `StreamCount()` accessor for the
  snapshot collector.

### Known limitations (remaining v0.2 open items)

- **Restreamer UI fork** (#15): separate repo, not started.
  The upstream Restreamer UI does not yet have a WebRTC toggle; use
  `/wilddragon-webrtc.html` in the meantime.
- **First upstream rebase** (#13, partially done): `docs/REBASE.md`
  is committed; the actual `git rebase upstream/main` must be run
  locally per the procedure. Record the result in the REBASE.md table.

### Upgrade (from v0.2.0-dragonfork)

```sh
cd deploy/truenas/core
git pull
# Add new lines to .env:
#   GRAFANA_ADMIN_PASSWORD=$(openssl rand -base64 24)
#   GRAFANA_PORT=3000
#   PROM_PORT=9090
docker compose pull   # pulls prom + grafana images
docker compose up -d  # core unchanged, prom + grafana start fresh
```

To publish an image for the first time, set `REGISTRY`, `REGISTRY_USER`,
`IMAGE_NAME`, and `REGISTRY_TOKEN` in repo settings, then tag:

```sh
git tag v0.2.1-dragonfork && git push origin v0.2.1-dragonfork
```

## v0.2.0-dragonfork (2026-05-03)

The "GUI ship" release. Everything from v0.1 is preserved; this round
documents and ships a usable graphical surface for the WebRTC feature
that v0.1 only exposed through the API.

### Added

- **Wild Dragon WebRTC admin page** at `/wilddragon-webrtc.html`. Single-file
  HTML/JS; no build step. Sign in with the API_AUTH_USERNAME / PASSWORD
  creds, see every process, toggle `webrtc.enabled` per-process with one
  click, restart on change, copy the WHEP URL, jump straight to the
  smoke player. Closes the v0.1 GUI gap — the upstream Restreamer UI
  ships with v0.2 but doesn't know about Core's `webrtc` config block,
  so toggling WebRTC previously required direct API calls.

### Documented (was present, just unannounced)

- **Restreamer UI bundle** in the TrueNAS deploy. The `deploy/truenas/core/`
  Dockerfile builds the upstream `datarhei/restreamer-ui` v1.14.0 React
  bundle with the Wild Dragon overlay applied (logo / favicon / header
  title / welcome card), copies the result into Core's disk filesystem
  via `seed-data.sh`, and Core serves it at `/`. Was added during M2
  but not called out in the v0.1 CHANGELOG.
- **WHEP smoke player** at `/whep-player.html`. Standalone WebRTC
  subscriber with ICE/codec/bitrate diagnostics. Was added during M4.

---

## v0.1.0-dragonfork (2026-05-03)

The first tagged Dragon Fork release. Forked from upstream datarhei
Core v16.16.0; everything upstream does is preserved unchanged. New:
WebRTC (WHEP) egress, integrated with the existing process supervisor.

### Added

- **WebRTC subsystem** under `app/webrtc/`, mirroring the shape of
  upstream's RTMP and SRT servers (Server interface, Echo handlers,
  process-graph hooks, admin endpoints).
- **Per-process opt-in** via `config.webrtc.enabled` on every restream
  process; resolver auto-injects two RTP output legs and allocates
  loopback UDP ports.
- **`POST /api/v3/whep/{id}`** — WebRTC-HTTP Egress Protocol subscribe.
  JWT-protected by the existing Core auth.
- **`DELETE /api/v3/whep/{id}/{resource}`** — idempotent teardown
  (returns 204 even on unknown resource per WHEP spec).
- **`PATCH /api/v3/whep/{id}/{resource}`** — trickle ICE.
- **CORS preflight** on every WHEP route + `Access-Control-Expose-Headers`
  for `Location` and `ETag` so browser-side WHEP players work
  cross-origin.
- **Configurable stream maps** via `webrtc.video_map` / `webrtc.audio_map`
  on the per-process config — defaults to `0:v:0` / `0:a:0` for
  RTMP/SRT publishers, overridable for multi-input pipelines.
- **`webrtc.*` global config block** with `CORE_WEBRTC_*` env-var
  bindings parallel to RTMP and SRT.
- **Admin API:** `GET /api/v3/webrtc/streams` + `/streams/{id}/peers`.
- **Browser smoke player** at `test/whep-player.html` with ICE / codec
  / bitrate diagnostics, JWT field, and `?url=&token=` shareable
  URLs.
- **Server-hop latency p95 gate** in CI (`-tags latency`), enforced at
  50ms on the runner; locally observed p95 ≈ 240µs.
- **TrueNAS deploy bundle** at `deploy/truenas/core/` — host-networked
  Docker stack with bundled FFmpeg, env-driven config.
- **Multi-viewer correctness:** per-stream peer cap, ICE-failure
  auto-cleanup goroutines, process-stop broadcast tear-down.
- **Error matrix:** 406 codec mismatch, 504 ICE timeout, 503 cap
  reached (separate body for total vs per-stream), 204 DELETE
  idempotent.

### Fixed

- `Config.Clone()` now preserves the `WebRTC` section.
- `http/api.ProcessConfig` Marshal/Unmarshal now carry the per-process
  `webrtc` block.
