# BincioActivity — Context for Claude

## What this project is

BincioActivity is a federated, open-source, self-hosted activity stats platform
(think personal Strava). Two-stage pipeline:

1. **`bincio extract`** (Python): GPX/FIT/TCX → BAS JSON data store
2. **`bincio render`** (Astro/Node): BAS data store → static website

The BAS (BincioActivity Schema) JSON files are the federation protocol.
Anyone can publish their data as BAS JSON and others can include it.

## Key design decisions

- **No database, no server** — everything is static files
- **Python with uv** for the extract stage
- **Astro + Svelte + Tailwind + MapLibre GL + Observable Plot** for the site
- **Haversine** (not geopy) for distance calculations (10x faster)
- **Worker initializer pattern** for ProcessPoolExecutor — large shared data
  (strava_lookup dict, known_hashes frozenset) is sent once per worker via
  `initializer=`, not once per task
- **BAS activity IDs** always use UTC with Z suffix for URL safety
- **TCX files** from Garmin use both `http://` and `https://` namespace URIs —
  parser handles both

## User's data

- Source: `~/src/cycling_data_davide/`
  - `activities/` — Strava export (GPX, FIT, TCX, all with .gz variants)
  - `Karoo_2026/` — recent Karoo device FIT files
  - `Karoo/` — older Karoo FIT files
  - `activities.csv` — Strava metadata (names, descriptions, gear)
- Extracted output: `~/bincio_data/` (or `/tmp/bincio_test/` for testing)
- ~3,200 input files → ~2,082 unique activities after dedup
- Date range: 2014–2026

## MapLibre GL + Vite/Astro — known gotchas

Learnt the hard way during debugging (March 2026):

- **`maplibregl.workerUrl = ...` is the v3 API and silently no-ops in v4+.**
  The v5 API is `maplibregl.setWorkerUrl(url)`, but you don't need it at all in a
  normal Vite environment — MapLibre handles the blob worker automatically.

- **`optimizeDeps: { exclude: ['maplibre-gl'] }` breaks tile loading.**
  It prevents Vite from converting MapLibre's UMD bundle to ESM. The UMD bundle
  uses AMD `define()` internally; served raw, the tile worker blob fails silently →
  black map, no tiles. The correct setting is `include: ['maplibre-gl']`.

- **`build.target: 'es2022'` (and `optimizeDeps.esbuildOptions.target`) is required.**
  MapLibre's dependencies use ES2022 class field syntax. If esbuild downgrades it,
  helpers like `__publicField` aren't available inside the serialised worker blob
  scope → tile loading fails. This is a known upstream issue (maplibre-gl-js #6680).

- **Use static imports, not dynamic `await import('maplibre-gl')`, when possible.**
  With `client:only="svelte"` in Astro, SSR never runs for the component so there is
  no `window is not defined` risk. Static import lets Vite pre-bundle correctly.

- **Use `client:only="svelte"` (not `client:load`) for the activity detail page.**
  `client:load` does SSR + hydration; complex interactive components with MapLibre
  can hit hydration mismatch issues. `client:only` mounts fresh on the client only.

- **MapLibre v5 requires explicit `center` and `zoom` in the Map constructor.**
  v4 silently defaulted to `center: [0,0], zoom: 0`. v5 leaves internal projection
  state undefined → `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'lng')` crashes
  on any operation that touches coordinates (markers, resize, render). Always pass
  `center` and `zoom` even if you plan to `fitBounds` later.

- **MapLibre v5 requires `setLngLat()` on markers before `.addTo(map)`.**
  v4 tolerated markers without coordinates. v5 calls `Marker._update()` inside
  `addTo()`, which needs valid lngLat → same `'lng'` crash. Set a dummy `[0, 0]`
  if the real position arrives later (e.g. hover markers).

## Observable Plot — known gotchas

- **Curve names are hyphenated, not camelCase.**
  Use `"monotone-x"`, not `"monotoneX"`. Plot uses its own curve name registry
  (not raw d3 identifiers). Wrong names throw `unknown curve` at runtime.

The working `astro.config.mjs` Vite section:
```js
vite: {
  optimizeDeps: {
    include: ['maplibre-gl'],
    esbuildOptions: { target: 'es2022' },
  },
  build: { target: 'es2022' },
},
```

## StatsView heatmap — colour intensity scaling

Two approaches have been tried. The **active one is percentile-based** (preferred for now).

### Option A — Linear / max-relative (simpler, currently inactive)

```ts
$: maxDailyKm = Math.max(...[...byDate.values()].map(v => v / 1000), 1);
// inside cellColors loop:
const km = total / 1000;
const intensity = Math.min(0.12 + (km / maxDailyKm) * 0.88, 1.0);
```

- Busiest day = full brightness; all others scale linearly against it.
- Intuitive: you can visually read "this day was ~50% of my biggest day".
- Downside: one outlier (e.g. a 250 km day) compresses everything else into
  near-darkness. Cross-sport comparison is unfair (10 km run vs 10 km cycling
  look very different even when filtered to a single sport).
- Legend shows actual max km: `More (X km max)`.

### Option B — Percentile rank (active)

```ts
$: sortedDaily = [...byDate.values()].sort((a, b) => a - b);

function pctRank(value: number, sorted: number[]): number {
  if (!sorted.length) return 0;
  let lo = 0, hi = sorted.length;
  while (lo < hi) { const mid = (lo + hi) >> 1; if (sorted[mid] <= value) lo = mid + 1; else hi = mid; }
  return lo / sorted.length;
}

// inside cellColors loop:
const intensity = 0.12 + pctRank(total, sortedDaily) * 0.88;
```

- Each day is ranked against all other active days; the laziest active day =
  intensity 0.12, the busiest = 1.0. The colour scale spreads evenly regardless
  of km gaps.
- GitHub-contribution-graph style: easy to see "busy vs quiet" relative to
  your own habits.
- Downside: absolute effort is not visible. A 5 km walk and a 200 km ride can
  look the same if they're both 95th-percentile days for their respective sports.
- Legend says `More (percentile · max X km)` to hint at both dimensions.

### Shared infrastructure

- Blended colours: in "All" sport view, each cell's RGB is a weighted average
  of sport colours by distance that day.
- `applyIntensity(hex, t)`: lerps from zinc-800 (#27272a = 39,39,42) to the
  target colour, so dim cells fade into the background rather than going black.
- `$: cellColors = Map<string, string>` — precomputed reactively so Svelte
  detects the dependency change when the sport filter or scale method changes
  (plain function calls with static args don't trigger Svelte re-renders).

## ActivityCharts — controls and athlete zones

`ActivityCharts.svelte` renders Observable Plot charts for the activity detail page.

### Chart controls

- **Metric tabs**: Elevation · Speed · Heart Rate · Cadence · Power
- **Chart type toggle** (right-aligned): `↗ Line` | `▭ Hist`
- **X-axis toggle** (line mode only, shown when speed data present): `Time` | `Dist`
  - Distance is integrated from `speed_kmh` at 1 Hz — no extra data needed.
- **Histogram controls** (visible only in histogram mode):
  - **Dual range slider** — trims the x domain; two overlapping `<input type="range">` with CSS track highlight.
  - **Bins slider** — exact bin count using explicit evenly-spaced thresholds (not d3's "nice" count, which ignores narrow ranges).

### Athlete zones

Zones are configured in `extract_config.yaml` under `athlete:` and written into
`index.json` at extract time (`owner.athlete`). The Astro activity page reads them
from the index and passes them down: `[id].astro` → `ActivityDetail` → `ActivityCharts`.

When viewing HR or Power in histogram mode, zone boundaries are drawn as dashed
vertical rules with Z1–Z5/Z7 labels at the top of the chart.
Labels and rules are clipped to the current trim range automatically.

Zone color palettes:
- HR (5 zones):    `#60a5fa #4ade80 #facc15 #fb923c #f87171`
- Power (7 zones): `#60a5fa #34d399 #facc15 #fb923c #f87171 #c084fc #f43f5e`

### Zone calculation reference (Coggan)

| Zone | HR (% max HR) | Power (% FTP) |
|------|--------------|---------------|
| Z1 | < 55% | < 55% |
| Z2 | 55–75% | 55–75% |
| Z3 | 75–87% | 75–90% |
| Z4 | 87–93% | 90–105% |
| Z5 | > 93% | 105–120% |
| Z6 | — | 120–150% |
| Z7 | — | > 150% |

## Activity sidecar edits — design spec

Users edit activities via **sidecar markdown files** that live alongside BAS JSON in the data dir.
No database, no server — consistent with the project's static-files-only philosophy.

### File naming

```
~/bincio_data/
  2024-05-15T10:30:00Z_cycling.json   ← immutable extract output (never touched)
  2024-05-15T10:30:00Z_cycling.md     ← user edits (sidecar)
```

Same stem as the JSON, `.md` extension. `bincio extract` never writes `.md` files,
so re-running extract is always safe and will never clobber user edits.

### Sidecar format

YAML frontmatter + optional Markdown body:

```markdown
---
title: "Epic climb up Monte Grappa"
sport: cycling           # override detected sport
hide_stats: [cadence]    # suppress specific stat panels in detail view
highlight: true          # pin/feature in feed (shown first, maybe badged)
private: false           # exclude from public feed
gear: "Trek Domane"      # freeform gear note
---

Rode with Marco and Giulia. Legs felt great after the rest week...
```

- All frontmatter keys are optional; omit means "keep extracted value"
- The Markdown body becomes the activity's `description`, rendered as HTML in the detail page
- `hide_stats` takes stat panel names: `elevation`, `speed`, `heart_rate`, `cadence`, `power`

### Where overrides are applied: the render stage

The **render stage** (`bincio render`) is the right place — not extract, not the browser.

- Extract → clean BAS JSON (immutable)
- Render → merges sidecars → Astro build consumes enriched data

A `bincio.render.merge` module walks the data dir, finds `*.md` sidecars,
and produces either enriched JSON files or a separate `overrides/index.json`
that Astro reads at build time. The site never needs to fetch a `.md` file
at runtime — all merging is build-time, keeping the static-first guarantee.

### Federation angle

Sidecars work for *remote* activities too: if you include someone else's BAS feed,
you can write local `.md` sidecars for their activity IDs. Your render stage applies
your overrides on top of their data. This is a natural extension of the local case.

### Editing UX: drawer in Astro + `bincio edit` write API

The edit UI is a **slide-in drawer** (`EditDrawer.svelte`) in the Astro site.
The drawer fetches from and POSTs to the `bincio edit` FastAPI server (write API only —
the server no longer serves its own HTML UI).

**How it works:**

```
bincio render --serve          # Astro dev server, port 4321
bincio edit --data-dir ~/…     # write API only, port 4041
```

- Edit button appears on the activity detail page **only when `PUBLIC_EDIT_URL` is set** in `site/.env`
- Clicking Edit opens the drawer in the same page — no navigation, no copy-pasting IDs
- Drawer fetches `GET /api/activity/{id}` to pre-fill, `POST /api/activity/{id}` to save
- After save: server runs `merge_all()` automatically → Astro serves updated data immediately on refresh
- Closing the drawer applies `title` + `description` changes optimistically to the local page state
  (no full reload required to see the text change)

**`PUBLIC_EDIT_URL` as feature flag:**
- **Unset** → no Edit button, no drawer. Works as a normal static site. Safe for public hosting.
- **Set** (e.g. `http://localhost:4041`) → editing enabled. Lives in `site/.env` (gitignored).
  Each deployment opts in explicitly.

**Edit server API (`bincio edit --data-dir <dir>`):**
- `GET  /api/activity/{id}` — current values (sidecar overrides layered on BAS JSON)
- `POST /api/activity/{id}` — write sidecar `.md`, trigger `merge_all()`
- `POST /api/activity/{id}/images` — multipart upload → `edits/images/{id}/{filename}`
- `DELETE /api/activity/{id}/images/{filename}` — remove uploaded image

**Edit drawer features:**
- Title, sport dropdown, gear
- Markdown textarea for description (images inserted as `![name](filename)` references)
- Image drag-and-drop zone with chip list + delete
- Hide stat panels (elevation, speed, heart_rate, cadence, power) — toggle buttons
- Highlight flag (★ — sorts to top of feed, visual badge)
- Private flag (⊘ — suppressed from index at render time)

### Image storage and serving

```
~/bincio_data/
  edits/
    2024-05-15T10:30:00Z_cycling.md
    images/
      2024-05-15T10:30:00Z_cycling/
        col-summit.jpg
        group-photo.jpg
```

Images are referenced in the markdown body with relative paths: `![Summit](col-summit.jpg)`.
`merge_all()` symlinks `edits/images/{id}/` → `_merged/activities/images/{id}/` so images
are served at `data/activities/images/{id}/{filename}` by the Astro dev server.
`ActivityDetail.svelte` rewrites relative image paths to this URL when rendering markdown.

**Note:** browsers cannot display `.HEIC` files. Convert to JPEG/PNG first:
`sips -s format jpeg photo.HEIC --out photo.jpg` (macOS).

### Decided

- **Sidecar location**: `edits/` subdirectory — cleaner, easier to backup/sync independently
- **Merge output**: `data/_merged/` — extracted data stays pristine; `public/data` → `_merged/`
- **`private: true`**: suppressed from `index.json` at render time (not client-side hide)
- **`highlight`**: sorts to top of feed; visual badge TBD
- **Edit UI**: drawer in Astro site, `bincio edit` is a pure write API (no HTML serving)

## Known issues / next steps

- `bincio render` Python CLI is a stub — site is built via `npm run build` directly
- Activity IDs in existing test data still use `+0000` format (pre-fix); re-run extract to get `Z` format
- Some activities appear with both untitled and titled IDs (near-dedup timing race)
- Stats page heatmap month labels are embedded in the week-column flex grid (fixed March 2026); `getWeeks` uses `localISO()` not `toISOString()` to avoid UTC/local date mismatch
- Federation (remote data sources) not yet implemented in site
- Friends pages (`/friends/{handle}/`) not yet implemented
- `bincio render` should automate: symlink data → `astro build`
- The `site/.env` file is gitignored — document the setup for new users
- Add `--workers` benchmark: on 8 cores, ~7 min for 3,200 activities first run
