Walked the README and docs/ tree against current code and fixed several
real bugs and many stale references. Highlights:
User-facing
- README.md: web interface install instructions referenced
install_web_service.sh at the repo root, but it actually lives at
scripts/install/install_web_service.sh.
- docs/GETTING_STARTED.md: every web UI port reference said 5050, but
the real server in web_interface/start.py:123 binds 5000. Same bug
was duplicated in docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md (17 occurrences). Fixed
both.
- docs/GETTING_STARTED.md: rewrote tab-by-tab instructions. The doc
referenced "Plugin Store", "Plugin Management", "Sports Configuration",
"Durations", and "Font Management" tabs - none of which exist. Real
tabs (verified in web_interface/templates/v3/base.html) are: Overview,
General, WiFi, Schedule, Display, Config Editor, Fonts, Logs, Cache,
Operation History, Plugin Manager (+ per-plugin tabs).
- docs/GETTING_STARTED.md: removed references to a "Test Display"
button (doesn't exist) and "Show Now" / "Stop" plugin buttons. Real
controls are "Run On-Demand" / "Stop On-Demand" inside each plugin's
tab (partials/plugin_config.html:792).
- docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md: removed dead reference to
troubleshoot_weather.sh (doesn't exist anywhere in the repo); weather
is now a plugin in ledmatrix-plugins.
Developer-facing
- docs/PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md: documented draw_image() doesn't exist
on DisplayManager. Real plugins paste onto display_manager.image
directly (verified in src/base_classes/{baseball,basketball,football,
hockey}.py). Replaced with the canonical pattern.
- docs/PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md: documented cache_manager.delete() doesn't
exist. Real method is clear_cache(key=None). Updated the section.
- docs/PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md: added 10 missing BasePlugin methods that
the doc never mentioned: dynamic-duration hooks, live-priority hooks,
and the full Vegas-mode interface.
- docs/PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT_GUIDE.md: same draw_image fix.
- docs/DEVELOPMENT.md: corrected the "Plugin Submodules" section. Plugins
are NOT git submodules - .gitmodules only contains
rpi-rgb-led-matrix-master. Plugins are installed at runtime into the
plugins directory configured by plugin_system.plugins_directory
(default plugin-repos/). Both internal links in this doc were also
broken (missing relative path adjustment).
- docs/HOW_TO_RUN_TESTS.md: removed pytest-timeout from install line
(not in requirements.txt) and corrected the test/integration/ path
(real integration tests are at test/web_interface/integration/).
Replaced the fictional file structure diagram with the real one.
- docs/EMULATOR_SETUP_GUIDE.md: clone URL was a placeholder; default
pixel_size was documented as 16 but emulator_config.json ships with 5.
Index
- docs/README.md: rewrote. Old index claimed "16-17 files after
consolidation" but docs/ actually has 38 .md files. Four were missing
from the index entirely (CONFIG_DEBUGGING, DEV_PREVIEW,
PLUGIN_ERROR_HANDLING, STARLARK_APPS_GUIDE). Trimmed the navel-gazing
consolidation/statistics sections.
Out of scope but worth flagging:
- src/plugin_system/resource_monitor.py:343 and src/common/api_helper.py:287
call cache_manager.delete(key) but no such method exists on
CacheManager. Both call sites would AttributeError at runtime if hit.
Not fixed in this docs PR - either add a delete() shim or convert
callers to clear_cache().

* fix: Use plugin.modes instead of manifest.json for available modes
- Display controller now checks plugin_instance.modes first before falling back to manifest
- This allows plugins to dynamically provide modes based on enabled leagues
- Fixes issue where disabled leagues (WNBA, NCAAW) appeared in available modes
- Plugins can now control their available modes at runtime based on config
* fix: Handle permission errors when removing plugin directories
- Added _safe_remove_directory() method to handle permission errors gracefully
- Fixes permissions on __pycache__ directories before removal
- Updates uninstall_plugin() and install methods to use safe removal
- Resolves [Errno 13] Permission denied errors during plugin install/uninstall
* debug(display): Change FPS check logging from debug to info level
- Change FPS check log from DEBUG to INFO to help diagnose scrolling FPS issues
- Add active_mode to log message for clarity
- Helps identify if plugins are being detected for high-FPS mode
* debug(display): Add logging for display_interval in both FPS loops
- Log display_interval when entering high-FPS and normal loops
- Shows expected FPS for high-FPS mode
- Helps diagnose why news ticker shows 50 FPS despite high-FPS detection
* feat: Update soccer-scoreboard submodule with scroll display support
- Submodule now includes full feature parity with football-scoreboard
- Granular display modes for 8 leagues (24 total modes)
- Scroll display mode with game_renderer.py and scroll_display.py
- League registry system with enabled state filtering
- Modernized config_schema.json with per-league scroll settings
- League-aware logo caching to prevent collisions
- Pillow 8.x compatibility for image resampling
Submodule branch: feature/football-feature-parity
Commit: e22a16d
* style(web): Update plugin button colors and reorganize documentation
- Change update button color to yellow-600 in installed plugins section to match plugin config page
- Change refresh plugins button color to blue-600 to match restart display button
- Move DEVELOPMENT.md and MIGRATION_GUIDE.md from root to docs/ directory
- Remove IMPACT_EXPLANATION.md and MERGE_CONFLICT_RESOLUTION_PLAN.md
