Chuck b031b99130 fix(plugins): stop reconciliation install loop, slow plugin list, and uninstall resurrection 
Three interacting bugs reported by a user (Discord/ericepe) on a fresh install:

1. The state reconciler retried failed auto-repairs on every HTTP request,
   pegging CPU and flooding logs with "Plugin not found in registry: github
   / youtube". Root cause: ``_run_startup_reconciliation`` reset
   ``_reconciliation_started`` to False on any unresolved inconsistency, so
   ``@app.before_request`` re-fired the entire pass on the next request.
   Fix: run reconciliation exactly once per process; cache per-plugin
   unrecoverable failures inside the reconciler so even an explicit
   re-trigger stays cheap; add a registry pre-check to skip the expensive
   GitHub fetch when we already know the plugin is missing; expose
   ``force=True`` on ``/plugins/state/reconcile`` so users can retry after
   fixing the underlying issue.

2. Uninstalling a plugin via the UI succeeded but the plugin reappeared.
   Root cause: a race between ``store_manager.uninstall_plugin`` (removes
   files) and ``cleanup_plugin_config`` (removes config entry) — if
   reconciliation fired in the gap it saw "config entry with no files" and
   reinstalled. Fix: reorder uninstall to clean config FIRST, drop a
   short-lived "recently uninstalled" tombstone on the store manager that
   the reconciler honors, and pass ``store_manager`` to the manual
   ``/plugins/state/reconcile`` endpoint (it was previously omitted, which
   silently disabled auto-repair entirely).

3. ``GET /plugins/installed`` was very slow on a Pi4 (UI hung on
   "connecting to display" for minutes, ~98% CPU). Root causes: per-request
   ``discover_plugins()`` + manifest re-read + four ``git`` subprocesses per
   plugin (``rev-parse``, ``--abbrev-ref``, ``config``, ``log``). Fix:
   mtime-gate ``discover_plugins()`` and drop the per-plugin manifest
   re-read in the endpoint; cache ``_get_local_git_info`` keyed on
   ``.git/HEAD`` mtime so subprocesses only run when the working copy
   actually moved; bump registry cache TTL from 5 to 15 minutes and fall
   back to stale cache on transient network failure.

Tests: 16 reconciliation cases (including 5 new ones covering the
unrecoverable cache, force-reconcile path, transient-failure handling, and
recently-uninstalled tombstone) and 8 new store_manager cache tests
covering tombstone TTL, git-info mtime cache hit/miss, and the registry
stale-cache fallback. All 24 pass; the broader 288-test suite continues to
pass with no new failures.

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/config_secrets.json - API keys and secrets

API Documentation

The V3 API is mounted at /api/v3/ (app.py:144). For the complete list and request/response formats, see docs/REST_API_REFERENCE.md. Quick reference for the most common 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/raw/main - Save raw main config (Config Editor)
  • POST /api/v3/config/raw/secrets - Save raw secrets

Display & System Control

  • GET /api/v3/system/status - System status
  • POST /api/v3/system/action - Control display (action body: start_display, stop_display, restart_display_service, restart_web_service, git_pull, reboot_system, shutdown_system, enable_autostart, disable_autostart)
  • GET /api/v3/display/current - Current display frame
  • GET /api/v3/display/on-demand/status - On-demand status
  • POST /api/v3/display/on-demand/start - Trigger on-demand display
  • POST /api/v3/display/on-demand/stop - Clear on-demand

Plugins

  • GET /api/v3/plugins/installed - List installed plugins
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/config?plugin_id=<id> - Get plugin config
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/config - Update plugin configuration
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/schema?plugin_id=<id> - Get plugin schema
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/toggle - Enable/disable plugin
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/install - Install from registry
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/install-from-url - Install from GitHub URL
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/uninstall - Uninstall plugin
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/update - Update plugin

Plugin Store

  • GET /api/v3/plugins/store/list - List available registry plugins
  • GET /api/v3/plugins/store/github-status - GitHub authentication status
  • POST /api/v3/plugins/store/refresh - Refresh registry from GitHub

Real-time Streams (SSE)

SSE stream endpoints are defined directly on the Flask app (app.py:607-619 — includes the CSRF exemption and rate-limit hookup alongside the three route definitions), not on the api_v3 blueprint:

  • 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
