Chuck 441b3c56e9 fix(starlark): code review fixes - security, robustness, and schema parsing
## Security Fixes
- manager.py: Check _update_manifest_safe return values to prevent silent failures
- manager.py: Improve temp file cleanup in _save_manifest to prevent leaks
- manager.py: Fix uninstall order (manifest → memory → disk) for consistency
- api_v3.py: Add path traversal validation in uninstall endpoint
- api_v3.py: Implement atomic writes for manifest files with temp + rename
- pixlet_renderer.py: Relax config validation to only block dangerous shell metacharacters

## Frontend Robustness
- plugins_manager.js: Add safeLocalStorage wrapper for restricted contexts (private browsing)
- starlark_config.html: Scope querySelector to container to prevent modal conflicts

## Schema Parsing Improvements
- pixlet_renderer.py: Indentation-aware get_schema() extraction (handles nested functions)
- pixlet_renderer.py: Handle quoted defaults with commas (e.g., "New York, NY")
- tronbyte_repository.py: Validate file_name is string before path traversal checks

## Dependencies
- requirements.txt: Update Pillow (10.4.0), PyYAML (6.0.2), requests (2.32.0)

## Documentation
- docs/STARLARK_APPS_GUIDE.md: Comprehensive guide explaining:
  - How Starlark apps work
  - That apps come from Tronbyte (not LEDMatrix)
  - Installation, configuration, troubleshooting
  - Links to upstream projects

All changes improve security, reliability, and user experience.

LED Matrix Web Interface V3

Modern, production web interface for controlling the LED Matrix display.

Overview

This directory contains the active V3 web interface with the following features:

  • Real-time display preview via Server-Sent Events (SSE)
  • Plugin management and configuration
  • System monitoring and logs
  • Modern, responsive UI
  • RESTful API

Running the Web Interface

Standalone (Development)

From the project root:

python3 web_interface/start.py

Or using the shell script:

./web_interface/run.sh

As a Service (Production)

The web interface can run as a systemd service that starts automatically based on the web_display_autostart configuration setting:

sudo systemctl start ledmatrix-web
sudo systemctl enable ledmatrix-web  # Start on boot

Accessing the Interface

Once running, access the web interface at:

Configuration

The web interface reads configuration from:

  • config/config.json - Main configuration
  • config/secrets.json - API keys and secrets

API Documentation

The V3 API is available at /api/v3/ with the following endpoints:

Configuration

  • GET /api/v3/config/main - Get main configuration
  • POST /api/v3/config/main - Save main configuration
  • GET /api/v3/config/secrets - Get secrets configuration
  • POST /api/v3/config/secrets - Save secrets configuration

Display Control

  • POST /api/v3/display/start - Start display service
  • POST /api/v3/display/stop - Stop display service
  • POST /api/v3/display/restart - Restart display service
  • GET /api/v3/display/status - Get display service status

Plugins

  • GET /api/v3/plugins - List installed plugins
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/<id> - Get plugin details
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/<id>/config - Update plugin configuration
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/<id>/enable - Enable plugin
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/<id>/disable - Disable plugin

Plugin Store

  • GET /api/v3/store/plugins - List available plugins
  • POST /api/v3/store/install/<id> - Install plugin
  • POST /api/v3/store/uninstall/<id> - Uninstall plugin
  • POST /api/v3/store/update/<id> - Update plugin

Real-time Streams (SSE)

  • GET /api/v3/stream/stats - System statistics stream
  • GET /api/v3/stream/display - Display preview stream
  • GET /api/v3/stream/logs - Service logs stream

Development

When making changes to the web interface:

  1. Edit files in this directory
  2. Test changes by running python3 web_interface/start.py
  3. Restart the service if running: sudo systemctl restart ledmatrix-web

Notes

  • Templates and static files use the v3/ prefix to allow for future versions
  • The interface uses Flask blueprints for modular organization
  • SSE streams provide real-time updates without polling
