UI: Hardline Nexus Dashboard Rebuild and Settings Wiring

  • Status: Accepted
  • Date: 2025-12-26
  • Context:
    • The Home dashboard must match the vendored Nexus HTML structure and DaisyUI component patterns.
    • Navigation and shell need to be simplified to Home/Torrents/Settings with a non-blocking SSE indicator.
    • Settings must remain reachable even when auth is missing and show a config snapshot.
  • Decision:
    • Rebuild dashboard sections to mirror Nexus markup (stats cards, storage status, recent events, tracker health, queue summary).
    • Align AppShell sidebar/topbar with Nexus partial structure and move the SSE indicator to the sidebar footer.
    • Wire Settings to fetch /v1/config and provide test-connection actions while keeping auth overlays off the Settings route.
    • Disable wasm-opt in the Trunk pipeline (data-wasm-opt="0") to avoid build failures on missing staged wasm outputs.
    • Use relative static asset paths for Nexus CSS and dashboard image URLs to keep styles/images loading when served from non-root paths.
    • Alternatives considered: importing revaer_config::ConfigSnapshot into the UI; rejected to avoid new cross-crate dependencies in wasm.
  • Consequences:
    • Positive: consistent Nexus/DaisyUI layout, simplified nav, and settings access even during auth errors.
    • Trade-offs: UI-only fetches rely on runtime connectivity; config display is untyped JSON in the UI; wasm bundles are no longer optimized by wasm-opt.
  • Follow-up:
    • Verify visual parity in the browser and keep the Nexus HTML deltas minimal.
    • Add typed config rendering if a UI-safe shared type becomes available.

Task Record

  • Motivation: enforce Nexus + DaisyUI parity for the dashboard while keeping Settings reachable and diagnostics visible.
  • Design notes: mapped each dashboard section to specific Nexus blocks; SSE indicator uses sidebar footer with a non-blocking dialog; config snapshot parsed as serde_json::Value to avoid new dependencies; disabled wasm-opt in crates/revaer-ui/index.html to keep trunk build --release reliable on this environment until tooling changes; aligned Nexus image URLs to /static/nexus/... for correct asset loading on all routes; aligned the sidebar footer indicator to the Nexus pinned-footer structure, restored the missing Global Sales card slot, and made the auth prompt non-blocking while stabilizing drawer hook usage; re-aligned the torrents filter header to the Nexus orders layout, updated the search input to use DaisyUI input-sm sizing, removed the custom placeholder override to let DaisyUI placeholder styles apply, and removed the legacy torrent list view.
  • Test coverage summary: just ci runs but just cov fails at ~77.6% overall line coverage (below the ≥80% gate); no new unit tests added in this update.
  • Observability updates: none (UI-only changes).
  • Risk & rollback plan: revert crates/revaer-ui dashboard/shell/settings edits and static/style.css if UI regressions appear.
  • Dependency rationale: no new dependencies added; reused existing serde_json.
