Three core pages and four plugin pages each imported qrcode and jsbarcode
directly, and each carried its own answer to the same questions: what margin,
what width, which error correction, how big a module must be before a scanner
can read it. The answers had already drifted - margin 0 in one place and 2 in
another, width 150 against 160 - and on a label that is the difference between
a sticker that scans and one that does not.
frontend/src/utils/codes.js owns it now: the label-stock presets, the quiet-zone
and margin defaults, CODE128 with no printed value, and the printer-resolution
arithmetic that only the Tech Tools generator had. A view passes what is
specific to its own label and nothing else - MachineBadge still asks for CODE39,
because the badge readers predate the shop-floor scanners and decode nothing
else, and that is exactly the kind of thing a call site should say out loud.
views/print/qrLogo.js is folded in rather than left as a second half-shared
helper that only some of the pages reached into.
The check script now fails a build that imports either library outside that
module. Without it this re-forks within a month: the next label page starts by
copying the nearest existing one, which is how it happened the first time.
Tests cover the part no amount of looking at a screen verifies - a QR that
looks fine at 96 dpi on a monitor can be unreadable at 203 dpi on half-inch
stock.
Label switches from CODE128 to a QR encoding 'TAG|rev' (gage lab tag + latest
print-file revision), so a physical part carries which revision it was printed
from - short payload stays low-version + reliable at 0.5in (margin quiet zone,
EC M, no logo). Item exposes latestrevision; kiosk strips the |rev to resolve
and records the scanned revision on the take (migration 0004 adds
printeditemtransactions.revision) for traceability of which rev was consumed.
Manual entry records a null revision.
Kiosk item lookup shows a fixed "WJ" prefix addon so operators type only the
number off the label. The label page - and the detail "Part Label" button,
renamed from "Bin Label" - now barcodes and prints the gage lab tag, falling
back to the internal item code when a part has no tag assigned.
The staging step that makes lean per-site frontend builds possible, plus the
first plugin relocated as the pilot.
- scripts/stage-frontend.mjs: copies each chosen plugin's plugins/<name>/frontend/
into frontend/src/.plugins-staged/<name>/ and codegens routes.gen.js. Plugin
selection via SITE_PLUGINS (comma-separated); empty = all plugins that have a
frontend/ (the full build). Wired as npm predev/prebuild; outputs gitignored.
- Router imports routes.gen.js and merges staged routes with the in-tree
./routes/*.js glob - dual-location during the transition.
- printedparts relocated: its 6 views (list/detail/form/kiosk + the settings and
labels views from the shared dirs) moved into plugins/printedparts/frontend/
views/, core imports rewritten to the @/ alias; routes.js is the self-contained
route module. Its old in-tree route file is removed.
Also fixes a crash the previous commit (37c764b) shipped: slides.js exports only
`toplevel` (its child routes live in core.js), so the router's
flatMap(m => m.default) produced an undefined child and threw
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'path')" at load - the whole SPA
went blank. Guarded with `m.default || []`. (The earlier "print pages are blank"
reading was this crash, not page nature.)
Verified live: /machines renders again; the relocated /printedparts list renders
identically from the staged plugin frontend; SITE_PLUGINS=machines excludes
printedparts from routes.gen. Build (via npm, runs stage) + vitest + naming green.
