## Overview
|
|
|
|
Mosswart Overlord is the backend that consumes a firehose of telemetry, vitals, inventory, combat, and chat events from 60+ characters running the `MosswartMassacre` plugin. It stores selected data in TimescaleDB, runs analytics (combat stats, idle/death detection), and broadcasts live updates to connected browser clients.
|
|
|
|
The frontend is a React + Vite app served at `/` with a live map, draggable windows (inventory, chat, combat, radar, etc.), and a server uptime sidebar. The previous vanilla JS frontend is preserved at `/classic`.

## Features
|
|
|
|
### Live Data
|
|
- **Live Map** — real-time player positions, dots, trails, portals, heatmap
|
|
- **WebSocket firehose** (`/ws/live`) — broadcasts every incoming event to browsers
|
|
- **Per-client subscriptions** — clients can send `{"type":"subscribe","message_types":[...]}` to receive only specific event types (the Discord rare monitor bot uses this to filter the 82GB/day firehose down to just `rare` and `chat`)
|
|
|
|
### Inventory
|
|
- Full inventory snapshot on login + incremental `inventory_delta` updates (add/update/remove)
|
|
- Per-character live refresh in the browser (debounced 2s)
|
|
- Advanced search with filters: material, set, armor level, spells, tinks, workmanship, etc.
|
|
- **Suitbuilder** at `/suitbuilder.html` — constraint-based armor optimization across multiple mule inventories with primary/secondary set support, cantrip overlap detection, and real-time SSE streaming
|
|
|
|
### Combat Stats (Mag-Tools style)
|
|
- Plugin parses combat chat into session deltas
|
|
- Backend accumulates lifetime totals from per-session snapshots
|
|
- Offense/defense broken out per damage element
|
|
- Browser combat window shows monster-by-monster damage
|
|
|
|
### Cross-Machine Vital Sharing
|
|
- WebSocket relay replaces UtilityBelt's localhost-only `VTankFellowHeals`
|
|
- Plugin broadcasts its own vitals and consumes peer vitals
|
|
- In-game `DxHud` overlay shows peer health/stamina/mana bars with direction arrows
|
|
|
|
### Discord Integration
|
|
- **Rare Monitor Bot** — posts rares (split by common/great) to configured channels
|
|
- **Death Alerts** — webhook to `#alerts` when a character's vitae goes from 0 → >0 (rate-limited to one per character per 5 min)
|
|
- **Idle Alerts** — webhook after 5 minutes of continuous idle state (caught portals, stuck nav, etc.). The grace period prevents false positives on brief idle blips.
|
|
- **Vortex Warning** — bot watches for "whirlwind of vortexes" chat and posts a warning embed
|
|
|
|
### Portals
|
|
- Automatic discovery + 1-hour retention
|
|
- Coordinate-deduplicated (rounded to 0.1 precision)
|
|
|
|
### Stats
|
|
- Per-character lifetime kills, deaths, rares, taper counts
|
|
- Grafana dashboards (2x2 iframe grid in the stats window)
|
|
|
|
### Health & Monitoring
|
|
- Server uptime + latency + player count from TreeStats.net (checked every 30s)
|
|
- Only current state is kept — no historical `server_health_checks` table (removed April 2026 as write-only bloat)
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- Docker & Docker Compose (recommended)
|
|
- OR: Python 3.11+, Node.js 20+, and a PostgreSQL 14+ with TimescaleDB
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone git@git.snakedesert.se:SawatoMosswartsEnjoyersClub/MosswartOverlord.git
|
|
cd MosswartOverlord
|
|
cp .env.example .env # fill in secrets (see Configuration below)
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Frontend development loop
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd frontend
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run dev # local Vite server
|
|
# ...edit files, hot reload...
|
|
cd ..
|
|
bash deploy-frontend.sh # builds + copies to static/ for production serving
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
⚠️ **`npm run build` writes to `static/_build/` but the web server serves from `static/`.** You must run `deploy-frontend.sh` to copy `_build/ → static/`. Otherwise the browser keeps loading the previous bundle.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
All secrets go in `.env`:
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Purpose |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` | Telemetry DB password |
|
|
| `INVENTORY_DB_PASSWORD` | Inventory DB password |
|
|
| `SHARED_SECRET` | Plugin auth for `/ws/position` |
|
|
| `SECRET_KEY` | Session cookie signing |
|
|
| `DISCORD_RARE_BOT_TOKEN` | Bot token for rare monitor |
|
|
| `DISCORD_ACLOG_WEBHOOK` | Webhook URL for death/idle alerts |
|
|
| `GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD` | Grafana admin |
|
|
| `COMMON_RARE_CHANNEL_ID` | Discord channel ID for common rares |
|
|
| `GREAT_RARE_CHANNEL_ID` | Discord channel ID for great rares |
|
|
| `ACLOG_CHANNEL_ID` | Discord channel ID for the rare bot's status/vortex messages |
|
|
| `MONITOR_CHARACTER` | Which character's chat the bot monitors |
|
|
|
|
## Deploying Changes
|
|
|
|
Live backend host: `overlord.snakedesert.se` (SSH user `erik`, key-based auth).
|
|
|
|
### Quick deploy — Python / static file changes
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh erik@overlord.snakedesert.se \
|
|
"cd /home/erik/MosswartOverlord && git pull --ff-only origin master"
|
|
# Python changes require a restart:
|
|
ssh erik@overlord.snakedesert.se "docker compose restart dereth-tracker"
|
|
# Static files (JS/CSS/HTML) are served from the bind-mounted static/ — no restart.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
⚠️ Uvicorn runs **without** `--reload` in production. Do not add it back — without the `watchfiles` package it falls back to a polling reloader that busy-loops at 100% CPU and eats a whole core.
|
|
|
|
### React frontend deploy
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd frontend && npm run build && cd ..
|
|
bash deploy-frontend.sh
|
|
git add static/ && git commit -m "deploy frontend" && git push
|
|
ssh erik@overlord.snakedesert.se "cd /home/erik/MosswartOverlord && git pull"
|
|
# No container restart needed.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Full rebuild — Dockerfile / pip package / version stamp changes
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh erik@overlord.snakedesert.se "cd /home/erik/MosswartOverlord && \
|
|
git pull --ff-only origin master && \
|
|
export BUILD_VERSION=\"\$(date -u +%Y.%-m.%-d.%H%M)-\$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)\" && \
|
|
docker compose build --no-cache --build-arg BUILD_VERSION=\$BUILD_VERSION dereth-tracker && \
|
|
docker compose up -d dereth-tracker"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`BUILD_VERSION` is displayed in the sidebar of the live frontend. Format is CalVer: `YYYY.M.D.HHMM-gitshorthash`.
|
|
|
|
## WebSocket Contract
|
|
|
|
### `/ws/position` (plugin → backend)
|
|
|
|
Authenticated via `?secret=<SHARED_SECRET>` or `X-Plugin-Secret` header. Accepts JSON frames with a `type` discriminator:
|
|
|
|
| `type` | Purpose |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `telemetry` | Position, kills, session metrics (every 2s per character) |
|
|
| `vitals` | Health/stamina/mana/vitae percentages |
|
|
| `character_stats` | Full attributes/skills/allegiance (every 10 min) |
|
|
| `inventory` / `full_inventory` | Complete inventory dump on login |
|
|
| `inventory_delta` | Incremental add/update/remove of a single item |
|
|
| `equipment_cantrip_state` | Equipped spell effects |
|
|
| `portal` | Discovered portal with coordinates |
|
|
| `spawn` | Monster spawn observation |
|
|
| `chat` | In-game chat line (any channel) |
|
|
| `quest` | Quest timer / progress |
|
|
| `rare` | Rare item find notification |
|
|
| `nearby_objects` | On-demand radar data (nearby entities) |
|
|
| `combat_stats` | Session combat snapshot (Mag-Tools parser output) |
|
|
| `share_*` | Cross-machine vital/debuff sharing envelopes |
|
|
| `dungeon_map` | Dungeon floor tile data for radar overlay |
|
|
|
|
See `EVENT_FORMATS.json` for exact per-type schemas.
|
|
|
|
### `/ws/live` (browser → backend)
|
|
|
|
Session-cookie authenticated (except for internal Docker network clients, which are trusted by IP). Clients can:
|
|
|
|
- Send `{"type":"subscribe","message_types":["rare","chat"]}` to filter which events they receive. Without subscribing, all types are forwarded (browser default).
|
|
- Send `{"player_name":"Larsson","command":"/radar start"}` to route a command to that character's plugin client.
|
|
- Send `{"type":"request_dungeon_map","landblock":"..."}` to pull cached dungeon tile data.
|
|
|
|
Backend pushes the same firehose (subject to subscription filter) to every browser client.
|
|
|
|
## HTTP API Reference
|
|
|
|
See `EVENT_FORMATS.json` for event schemas. Major HTTP endpoints:
|
|
|
|
- `GET /live` — active players seen in the last 30s
|
|
- `GET /history?from=…&to=…` — historical telemetry snapshots
|
|
- `GET /trails` — recent player trails for the map
|
|
- `GET /spawns/heatmap?hours=N` — aggregated spawn density
|
|
- `GET /portals` — discovered portals within retention window
|
|
- `GET /inventory/{character}` — current inventory (proxied to inventory-service)
|
|
- `GET /character-stats/{character}` — full character attributes/skills
|
|
- `GET /combat-stats/{character}` — session + lifetime combat stats
|
|
- `GET /vital-sharing/peers` — currently-registered vital sharing peers
|
|
- `GET /api-version` — build version stamp
|
|
- `GET /server-health` — current Coldeve server status + player count
|
|
|
|
## Frontend
|
|
|
|
### React v2 (primary, at `/`)
|
|
- Map-first layout with draggable/resizable windows
|
|
- Code-split bundles: one chunk per window type, lazy-loaded on open
|
|
- Window types: Chat, Stats, Inventory, Character, Radar, CombatStats, CombatPicker, Issues, VitalSharing, QuestStatus, PlayerDashboard
|
|
- Per-character inventory version counter — an open inventory window refreshes 2s after its own character's last `inventory_delta`, ignoring unrelated traffic
|
|
- Direct DOM pan/zoom on the map (no React state per frame)
|
|
- Service worker caches a small whitelist of static assets
|
|
- Version badge in the sidebar confirms which build is loaded
|
|
|
|
### Classic v1 (preserved at `/classic`)
|
|
The original vanilla JS frontend with element-pooling optimization is kept for fallback and reference.
|
|
|
|
## Database Schema
|
|
|
|
### Telemetry DB (`dereth`, TimescaleDB)
|
|
|
|
| Table | Type | Retention | Purpose |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| `telemetry_events` | hypertable | 30 days | Position/stats snapshots |
|
|
| `spawn_events` | hypertable | 7 days | Monster spawn observations (heatmap source) |
|
|
| `rare_events` | regular | forever | Rare find history |
|
|
| `portals` | regular | 1 hour | Discovered portals, dedup by rounded coords |
|
|
| `char_stats` | regular | forever | Per-character lifetime kill total |
|
|
| `rare_stats` | regular | forever | Per-character lifetime rare total |
|
|
| `rare_stats_sessions` | regular | forever | Per-session rare count |
|
|
| `combat_stats` | regular | forever | Lifetime combat accumulator |
|
|
| `combat_stats_sessions` | regular | forever | Per-session combat snapshots |
|
|
| `character_stats` | regular | forever | Latest full stats JSON per character |
|
|
| `server_status` | regular | forever | Current Coldeve server state (single row) |
|
|
|
|
### Inventory DB (`inventory_db`, PostgreSQL)
|
|
|
|
Normalized schema: `items`, `item_combat_stats`, `item_requirements`, `item_enhancements`, `item_ratings`, `item_spells`, `item_raw_data`.
|
|
|
|
`items.container_id` stores the in-game ID of the container holding the item (0 = character body). The frontend groups items into packs by this ID.
|
|
|
|
## Operations & Health
|
|
|
|
### PostgreSQL tuning
|
|
`dereth-db` runs with explicit memory overrides in `docker-compose.yml`:
|
|
- `shared_buffers=8GB` (was 96GB via auto-tune on a 32GB host — caused thrashing)
|
|
- `effective_cache_size=16GB`
|
|
- `work_mem=16MB`, `maintenance_work_mem=1GB`
|
|
- `max_wal_size=4GB`
|
|
|
|
### Retention policies
|
|
- `telemetry_events`: 30-day drop, daily
|
|
- `spawn_events`: 7-day drop, daily
|
|
- `portals`: 1-hour cleanup (background task in `main.py`)
|
|
- `server_health_checks`: **removed** — was write-only, 850K rows of nothing
|
|
|
|
### Log levels
|
|
Both `dereth-tracker` and `inventory-service` run at `LOG_LEVEL=INFO`. Do not set to `DEBUG` in production — it dumps full inventory_delta payloads for every item update (hundreds of KB/sec).
|
|
|
|
### Host (Proxmox VM)
|
|
- 6 vCPU, 32 GiB RAM (of which ~30 GiB is normally free under current load)
|
|
- Live host: `overlord.snakedesert.se`
|
|
- Reverse proxy: Nginx on the host terminates TLS and strips the `/api/` prefix before forwarding to port 8765
|
|
|
|
### Debug commands
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker ps
|
|
docker logs mosswartoverlord-dereth-tracker-1 --tail 100
|
|
docker logs mosswartoverlord-inventory-service-1 --tail 100
|
|
docker logs mosswartoverlord-discord-rare-monitor-1 --tail 100
|
|
docker exec dereth-db psql -U postgres -d dereth
|
|
```
