# Hoover — SPA Framework

Hoover is the custom reactive SPA framework used by the Vacuum Wall web UI. It provides a lightweight VDOM rendering engine, reactive state, a hash-based router, a central model layer for data synchronization, and shared UI components. No build step is required — all code runs as ES modules served raw by nginx.

## Overview

| Module | File | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Reactivity | `reactivity.js` | Reactive Proxy state with batched render requests |
| VDOM | `vdom.js` | Virtual DOM: `h()` factory, diffing, patching |
| Render | `render.js` | Render engine: container-level diffing, component lifecycle |
| Component | `component.js` | Page definitions, lifecycle hooks, state caching |
| Router | `router.js` | Hash-based SPA router, `Link` navigation component |
| Model | `model.js` | **Central** reactive store per subsystem, fetch, WS invalidation, loading states |
| Auth model | `auth_model.js` | Token/session lifecycle model: storage, refresh scheduling, session validation, login/logout transitions |
| WebSocket | `websocket.js` | Auto-reconnect WS, topic routing to model refresh, `disconnect()` (terminal-auth socket teardown) |
| API | `api.js` | JSON fetch wrapper, toast notifications, form submissions |
| Helpers | `helpers.js` | Escaping, DOM value helpers, zone parsing |
| Components | `components/*.js` | Reusable UI: layout, data tables, modals, toasts |
| Barrel | `index.js` | Single import point for all public APIs |

All public APIs are exported from `hoover/index.js`. Pages and app bootstrap import from this single entry point.

## Architecture

```
index.html — static shell with #sidebar, #main, #modal-root
   └── app.js — SPA bootstrap
         ├── modelRegister('firewall', { subsystem: 'firewall', fetch: ... })
         ├── modelRegister('dnsmasq', { subsystem: 'dnsmasq', fetch: ... })
         ├── modelFetch('firewall') / modelFetch('dnsmasq') / ...
         ├── render(sidebarEl, Sidebar)    — sidebar render root
         ├── render(mainEl, MainContent)   — main content render root
         └── connect()                     — WebSocket lifecycle
```

The HTML shell (`index.html`) provides named DOM containers (`#sidebar`, `#main`) plus a `#modal-root` anchor for modals. The `app.js` bootstrap mounts Hoover render functions onto `#sidebar` and `#main`, creating two independent render roots.

Each render root registers a render function via `render(container, fn)`. When reactive state changes, all registered render functions re-execute in a single batched microtask, producing new VNodes that are diffed against the previous tree and patched into the DOM.

### Data Flow

```
WS message → refreshByTopic(topic) → modelFetch(name) → model.data = apiFetch()
                                                       → reactivity proxy triggers render
                                                                 → page.render(state) reads model data
```

The **model layer** is the single source of truth for subsystem data. Pages never call `apiFetch` for data loading — they call `getModel(name)` in `init()` to get a reactive model, then read `model.data`, `model.loading`, and `model.error` in `render()`.

Mutations (`ConfirmDelete`, `ActionButton`, `QuickModal`, `apiSubmit`) refresh models by name (`refresh: 'firewall'`), not by calling load functions. The model layer ensures in-flight dedup, loading flag management, and WS-driven auto-refresh.

## Bootstrap

The app starts from `webui/static/app.js`:

```javascript
import { h, render, Link, hComp, ToastContainer, connect, apiFetch,
          modelRegister, modelFetch, reactive } from '/static/hoover/index.js';

// 1. Register subsystem models
modelRegister('firewall', {
    subsystem: 'firewall',
    fetch: async () => {
        const r = await apiFetch('/api/firewall/config');
        if (!r.ok) throw new Error(r.error);
        return r.data;
    },
});

// ... more modelRegister calls ...

// 2. Initial fetch for all models
for (const name of ['status', 'firewall', 'network', 'dnsmasq', 'nginx', 'acme', 'wireguard']) {
    modelFetch(name);
}

// 3. Create reactive router state
const router = {
    state: reactive({ path: location.hash.slice(1) || '/dashboard' }),
    component() {
        const name = this.state.path.replace(/^\//, '');
        const page = Pages[name] || NotFoundPage;
        return hComp(page, this.state.path);
    },
};

// 4. Listen for hash changes
window.addEventListener('hashchange', () => {
    router.state.path = location.hash.slice(1) || '/dashboard';
});

// 5. Mount render roots
render(sidebarEl, Sidebar);
render(mainEl, MainContent);

// 6. Start WebSocket (deferred to avoid initial render conflict)
setTimeout(connect, 0);
```

## Reactivity

### `reactive(obj)`

Wraps a plain object in a reactive `Proxy`. Any property assignment that changes the value automatically schedules a batched re-render across all registered render roots.

```javascript
const state = reactive({ data: null, loading: true, error: null });

// Triggers re-render
state.loading = false;
state.data = result;
```

Multiple property mutations in the same microtask tick produce a single render cycle. Read properties normally; only writes trigger updates.

**Important:** Hoover's reactivity proxy intercepts property `set` only. It does not track property additions/deletions, array mutations (e.g., `push`, `splice`), or nested object deep changes. Always mutate top-level properties by assignment:

```javascript
// Correct — assigns a new array
state.items = [...state.items, newItem];

// Incorrect — push won't trigger re-render
state.items.push(newItem);
```

### `requestUpdate()`

Manually schedule a re-render. Only one microtask is queued regardless of how many times it's called in the same tick.

## Model

The model layer (`model.js`) is the **central** data synchronization mechanism. Each subsystem gets one reactive model with `{ data, loading, refreshing, error }`. Hoover handles fetching, WS invalidation, loading states, and in-flight dedup.

### `modelRegister(name, definition)`

Register a subsystem model at app bootstrap.

```javascript
modelRegister('firewall', {
    subsystem: 'firewall',           // WS topic to listen for ('*' = all)
    fetch: async (signal) => {       // async fetch function
        const r = await apiFetch('/api/firewall/config', { signal });
        if (!r.ok) throw new Error(r.error);
        return r.data;
    },
    defaultData: null,               // optional, initial data value
    // onSuccess: (name, data, param?) => { },  // optional — after model.data is set (also for null)
    // onFailure: (name, error) => { },         // optional — after model.error is set (real throws only)
});

// Parameterized example — tab-aware fetch:
modelRegister('logs', {
    subsystem: '*',
    fetch: async (signal, tab) => {
        const url = LOG_TABS[tab || 'journal'];
        const r = await apiFetch(url, { signal });
        if (!r.ok) throw new Error(r.error);
        return (r.data || '').split('\n').filter(l => l.length > 0);
    },
});
```

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `name` | Model name (e.g., `'firewall'`, `'dnsmasq'`) |
| `definition.subsystem` | WS topic string. Use `'firewall'`, `'dnsmasq'`, etc. Use `'*'` to match all topics. |
| `definition.fetch(signal?, param?)` | Async function that fetches and returns data. Throws on error. Receives optional `AbortSignal` and optional parameter (e.g., tab key). |
| `definition.defaultData` | Optional initial data value (default: `null`) |
| `definition.onSuccess(name, data, param?)` | Optional lifecycle hook called after `model.data` is assigned — including `data === null` (a resolved `null` is normal, not an error). `param` is the action object passed to `fetch` (or `undefined`), so hooks can tell which action produced the data. Fire-and-forget: hook errors are caught and logged via `console.warn`; they never clobber `model.error`, the returned promise, or the `finally` flag clearing. |
| `definition.onFailure(name, error)` | Optional lifecycle hook called after `model.error` is assigned. Only reachable on a real throw from `fetch` (e.g., network error). Same fire-and-forget error isolation as `onSuccess`. |

### `getModel(name)`

Get a reactive model by name. Returns the model object with `{ data, loading, refresh, error }` properties. Call in `init()` to access model state in `render()`.

```javascript
// In page init
init() {
    return {
        firewall: getModel('firewall'),
    };
}

// In render
render(state) {
    const guard = renderGuard(state.firewall, 'Zones', 'Firewall zones', state.firewall.data?.zones);
    if (guard) return guard;

    const zones = state.firewall.data?.zones || [];
    // ...
}
```

### `modelFetch(name, signal?, param?)`

Trigger a fetch for the named model. In-flight dedup ensures concurrent callers get the same promise. Updates `loading`/`refreshing` flags automatically.

```javascript
// Initial load
modelFetch('firewall');

// Post-mutation refresh
const r = await apiFetch('/api/firewall/zones', { method: 'POST', body });
if (r.ok) modelFetch('firewall');

// Parameterized fetch (e.g., tab-aware logs)
modelFetch('logs', 'journal');
modelFetch('logs', 'nginx-access');
```

**Behavior:**
- If a fetch is already in progress for this model (and param), returns the existing promise (dedup).
- Sets `model.loading = true` on first fetch, `model.refreshing = true` on subsequent fetches.
- Clears `model.error` before fetch.
- On success, assigns result to `model.data`.
- On failure, stores error in `model.error`.
- Flags cleared in `finally` block.
- Does not abort in-progress fetches — other consumers may still need the data.
- The `param` argument is passed to `fetch(signal, param)` for parameterized models. Dedup key is `name` (no param) or `name: JSON.stringify(param)` (with param) — object params (e.g. `{ action: 'refresh' }` vs `{ action: 'check' }`) therefore get distinct keys, and param-less `modelFetch(name)` calls retain the bare `name` key.

### `refreshByTopic(topic)`

Refresh all models whose subsystem topic matches. Called by `websocket.js` when a WS message arrives.

| Model `subsystem` | Topic | Match? |
|---|---|---|
| `'firewall'` | `'firewall'` | Yes |
| `'firewall'` | `'dnsmasq'` | No |
| `'*'` | `'firewall'` | Yes (always matches) |
| `'nginx'` | `'*'` | Yes (wildcard topic) |

### `collectLoadingModels(...models)`

Combine loading/refreshing/error from multiple models for composite `renderGuard` calls.

```javascript
// Pages that consume multiple models
render(state) {
    const c = collectLoadingModels(state.nginx, state.acme);
    const guard = renderGuard({ loading: c.loading, refreshing: c.refreshing, error: c.error },
        'Proxy', 'Nginx reverse proxy');
    if (guard) return guard;
    // ...
}
```

Returns `{ loading, refreshing, error }` derived from the union of all passed models.

## Auth model

`auth_model.js` is a first-class Hoover model (`modelRegister('auth', createAuthModel())`) promoted
to the single source of truth for the token/session lifecycle: token storage (sessionStorage via
internal `readStorage`/`writeStorage`/`clearStorage` helpers), refresh scheduling (TTL − 60s timer),
session validation, login/logout transitions, and WS reconnection coordination.

Exports: `createAuthModel()` (the model definition), `getAuthToken()`, `isAuthenticated()`
(requires **both** `token` and `user`), `refreshAuth()` (always resolves — callers branch on
`getAuthToken()` afterwards, never on promise rejection), `getAuthData()` (whole data object).

**State:** `data.token`, `data.refresh`, `data.session_id`, `data.user`, `data.permissions`,
`data.ttl` (ms), plus the standard `loading`/`refreshing`/`error` model flags and
`onSuccess`/`onFailure` lifecycle hooks. `fetch(signal, param)` takes a param object
`{ action, payload? }` — `check`, `refresh`, `login`, `logout` (param-less calls are treated as
`check`). Any fetch result without a token (`null`, or the all-nulls logout shape) is **terminal**:
storage cleared, refresh timer cancelled, redirect to `#/login` if not already there, and an
`auth:logout` window event.

**Lifecycle:**

```
app bootstrap → modelFetch('auth', { action: 'check' })
    → stores verified user/permissions + stored tokens → schedules refresh
    (no auth:login — initApp() calls fetchInitialData()/connect() directly)
apiFetch 401 → refreshAuth() → modelFetch('auth', { action: 'refresh' })
    → onSuccess stores rotated tokens (new session_id) or clears + redirects
    (no auth:login dispatch)
timer fires (TTL − 60s) → refreshAuth() → same path
WS fail×3 → refreshAuth() → same path (branch on getAuthToken(), never on rejection)
login → modelFetch('auth', { action: 'login', payload: data })
    → onSuccess stores + schedules + fires auth:login (login action only)
    → app.js listener (deferred to macrotask) → fetchInitialData() + connect()
logout → modelFetch('auth', { action: 'logout' }) → onSuccess clears + redirects
any terminal no-token result → onSuccess dispatches auth:logout
    → app.js listener → disconnect() closes the WS socket
```

**Invariants:**

- **Silent topic** — the subsystem topic is `'auth'` and the daemon never broadcasts it
  (collectors in `lib/state.py` cover `firewall, dnsmasq, nginx, acme, wireguard, networkd,
  system` only), so `refreshByTopic()` never fetches the auth model. Auth refresh is driven
  exclusively by the TTL timer, `apiFetch` 401, and WS fail×3.
- **No recursion** — the auth model's `fetch` uses vanilla `fetch()`, never `apiFetch`.
- **`modelFetch()` never rejects** — errors land in `model.error`; consumers branch on model
  state (`getAuthToken()` / `isAuthenticated()`), not on promise rejection.
- **Single storage writer** — all `vw:*` sessionStorage keys are read/written through the
  model's internal helpers only.
- **Event gating** — `auth:login` fires only for the `login` action (the `param.action` gate in
  `onSuccess`); the bootstrap `check` and silent TTL `refresh`es must not re-fire it, or the
  app.js listener would re-run `fetchInitialData()`/`connect()` on top of `initApp`'s direct
  calls. `auth:logout` fires on every terminal (no-token) transition; its only listener
  (app.js) calls `disconnect()` from `websocket.js`. The model never imports `websocket.js`
  (would cycle) — the event inverts the dependency.
- **Session binding rotation** — the server mints a new `session_id` on every refresh; any
  post-refresh request (the `apiFetch` 401 retry, the WS handshake) must re-read **both**
  `Authorization` and `X-Session-Id` from `getAuthData()`.
- **Concurrent refresh guard** — `modelFetch`'s in-flight dedup (distinct key per param object:
  `name + ':' + JSON.stringify(param)`) is the primary guard shared by all refresh paths
  (timer, 401, WS fail×3); a module-level `_refreshing` flag in `auth_model.js` is a redundant
  secondary guard for the timer path.
- **Socket teardown necessity** — the daemon validates the WS token only at handshake, so
  without the terminal `auth:logout` → `disconnect()` path the previous user's socket would
  survive logout and be reused by a same-tab relogin (`connect()` no-ops on a live socket).

## Virtual DOM

### `h(tag, props, ...children)`

The VNode factory. Three forms:

```javascript
// Element
h('div', { class: 'card' }, h('span', null, 'Hello'))

// Text node
h('#text', 'some text')

// Component (Hoover component, not function — must use hComp or h('#comp', ...))
h('#comp', { component: MyPage, key: '/dashboard' }, [])
```

**Children flattening:** `null`, `undefined`, and `false` children are filtered out. String and number primitives are automatically converted to text VNodes.

### HTM (Tagged HTML Templates)

Hoover ships with **htm** for JSX-like template syntax using tagged template literals. Import and use:

```javascript
import { html, Badge, ConfirmDelete } from '/static/hoover/index.js';

// Instead of:
h('div', { class: 'card' },
    h('h3', { style: 'color:red' }, 'Title'),
    h('button', { 'on:click': handler }, 'Click')
)

// Write:
html`<div class="card">
    <h3 style="color:red">Title</h3>
    <button onClick=${handler}>Click</button>
</div>`
```

**Event naming:** Use camelCase `onClick=${fn}` — the adapter translates events to Hoover's `on:click` convention. Any attribute starting with `on` followed by a capital letter (e.g., `onSubmit`, `onChange`) is converted.

**Component syntax:** Use `<${Component}>` syntax for inline components:

```javascript
html`<${Badge} text=${val} variant="info" />`
html`<${ConfirmDelete} url=${url} message=${msg} success="Deleted" refresh="firewall" />`
```

**Interpolation:** Values are interpolated with `${...}`. Use `esc()` for user-controlled text:

```javascript
html`<tr key=${item.id}>
    <td>${esc(item.name)}</td>
    <td>${item.value}</td>
</tr>`
```

**Spread attributes:** Use `...${props}` to spread an object as props:

```javascript
html`<${Badge} ...${badgeProps} />`
```

**Boolean attributes:** Use `html`<${Badge} readonly />`` for boolean attributes.

**Coexistence with `h()`:** Both `h` and `html` are exported from the barrel. Use whichever is clearer for the given context. Simple elements are often shorter with `h()`, while complex nested structures benefit from `html`.

**Limitations:**
- No `<Badge>...</Badge>` closing syntax — must use self-closing `<${Badge} ... />` or full `<${Badge} ... ></${Badge}>` syntax
- No control flow (`if/for`) in templates — use JavaScript conditionals and `.map()` before interpolation
- `esc()` is still required for user-controlled text to prevent XSS

### Props

| Prop | Behavior |
|---|---|
| `class` | String or object (`{ active: bool }` — truthy keys joined as class names) |
| `style` | String or object (`{ color: 'red' }` — applies to `el.style`) |
| `html` / `innerHTML` | Sets `innerHTML` directly |
| `textContent` | Sets `textContent` directly |
| `value` | On `<input>`, `<textarea>`, `<select>`: sets `.value`; otherwise sets attribute |
| `checked` | On `<input>`: sets `.checked`; otherwise sets attribute |
| `disabled` | Sets `.disabled` boolean property on applicable elements |
| `on:click`, `on:submit`, etc. | Event listeners (`on:` prefix + event name) |
| `key` | Used by keyed diff algorithm; not applied to DOM |
| `ref` | Reserved (no-op); not applied to DOM |

All other keys are set as HTML attributes. `null`, `undefined`, and `false` values remove the attribute.

### Diffing

The diff algorithm uses index-based unkeyed diffing by default. When any VNode in a sibling set has a `key` prop, the keyed algorithm is used for the entire set. Keyed diff preserves DOM element order and reuses elements by key.

Use `key` when rendering lists that can be reordered, inserted, or removed:

```javascript
items.map(item =>
    h('li', { key: item.id }, esc(item.name))
)
```

## Rendering

### `render(container, fn)`

Mount a render function onto a DOM element. First call creates DOM from scratch; subsequent calls diff and patch in place.

```javascript
function View() {
    return h('div', null, 'Hello ' + state.name);
}
render(document.getElementById('root'), View);
```

The render function executes on every reactive update. It can return a single VNode or an array of VNodes.

## Pages

### `definePage(def)`

Define a page component with reactive state and rendering. Pages access data through models, not by fetching directly.

```javascript
export default definePage({
    // Return initial state — models are obtained via getModel()
    init() {
        return {
            firewall: getModel('firewall'),
        };
    },

    // Optional: one-time setup on mount (e.g., opening a modal dialog)
    // Not used for data loading — model layer handles that
    async load(state) {
        // Rarely needed
    },

    // Called on every reactive update — return VNode(s)
    render(state) {
        const guard = renderGuard(state.firewall, 'Zones', 'Firewall zone management', state.firewall.data?.zones);
        if (guard) return guard;

        const zones = state.firewall.data?.zones?.available || [];
        return [
            PageHeader({ title: 'Zones' }),
            zones.map(z => h('div', { class: 'card', key: z }, esc(z))),
        ];
    },

    // Optional: cleanup on unmount
    onUnmount(state) {
        // abort pending fetches, clear cached state
    },
});
```

Pages get data from models reactive — they never call `apiFetch` in `load()`. The model layer fetches data, manages loading/error states, and triggers re-renders when data arrives.

### Page Definition Properties

| Property | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `init()` | Yes | Returns initial state object. Wrapped with `reactive()` by `definePage`. Call `getModel(name)` here to access model data. |
| `load(state)` | No | Optional one-time setup called on mount. Not used for data loading — use model layer instead. |
| `render(state)` | Yes | Returns VNode(s) for the page. Read model data from `state.<model>.data`. |
| `onUnmount(state)` | No | Called when page is unmounted. Use for custom cleanup (e.g., aborting page-local fetches). |

### Page Lifecycle

1. **Mount**: `init()` creates state → `load()` fires if defined → component tracked by key.
2. **Update**: Reactive state change (from model data update, navigation, etc.) → `render()` re-executes → VDOM diff patches DOM.
3. **WS auto-refresh**: Topic message arrives → `refreshByTopic()` → `modelFetch()` for matching models → `model.data` update → reactivity triggers `render()`.
4. **Unmount**: `onUnmount()` called if defined → component entry destroyed.

### `hComp(renderer, key)`

Create a VNode for a page component. The `key` determines lifecycle boundaries — the same key reuses the existing component instance (preserving state and in-flight loads).

```javascript
// Router pattern — key is the path so navigation to a different page unmounts the old one
return hComp(page, this.state.path);
```

## Router

### Custom Router Pattern (Used by Vacuum Wall)

The Vacuum Wall app uses a custom router object rather than `createRouter()`. Reactive path state with `hashchange` listener handles navigation:

```javascript
const router = {
    state: reactive({ path: location.hash.slice(1) || '/dashboard' }),
    component() {
        const name = this.state.path.replace(/^\//, '');
        const page = Pages[name] || NotFoundPage;
        return hComp(page, this.state.path);
    },
};

window.addEventListener('hashchange', () => {
    router.state.path = location.hash.slice(1) || '/dashboard';
});
```

### `createRouter(routes)`

Alternative: built-in hash-based router with route map.

```javascript
const router = createRouter({
    '/dashboard': () => h('#comp', { component: DashboardPage, key: '/dashboard' }, []),
    '/zones':     () => h('#comp', { component: ZonesPage, key: '/zones' }, []),
    '*':          () => h('#comp', { component: NotFoundPage, key: '*' }, []),
});
```

Returns `{ state, navigate(path), component() }`. The `component()` function returns the VNode for the current route and should be used inside a render function.

### `Link(props)`

Client-side navigation link. Sets `location.hash` without full page navigation. Accepts `path`, `class`, `children`.

```javascript
Link({ path: '/zones', class: 'active', children: ['Zones'] })
// Renders: <a href="#/zones" class="active">Zones</a>
```

## WebSocket

### `connect()`

Start the WebSocket connection to the daemon at `ws://<host>/ws` (auto-detects `wss:` for HTTPS). Auto-reconnects with exponential backoff (max 15s).

The JWT is read from the auth model and sent in the WebSocket subprotocol header (`Bearer <token>`). With no token, no socket is created (the daemon 401s unauthenticated WS connections). After 3 consecutive close failures a token refresh is triggered through the auth model; reconnection branches on the model's token state (`getAuthToken()`), never on the refresh promise.

### `disconnect()`

Close the WS socket (terminal auth transition — logout, failed session check, failed refresh,
or the 401 session-death path). The daemon validates the WS token only at handshake, so the
socket must be closed explicitly on a terminal transition; `app.js` listens for the
`auth:logout` event and calls `disconnect()`.

### WS Message Types

| Type | Fields | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| `versions` | `updated: [topic, …]` | Refresh all models matching listed topics |
| `refresh` | `topics: [topic, …]` | Same as `versions` |
| `notify` | `topic` | Refresh all models matching the topic |
| `status` | `topic` | Refresh all models matching the topic |

Model `subsystem: '*'` matches all topics.

### WS Auto-Refresh Flow

When a WS message arrives for a topic:
1. `refreshByTopic(topic)` iterates registered models.
2. Matching models call `modelFetch(name)`.
3. Model fetch updates `model.data`, triggering reactivity and page re-renders.
4. In-flight dedup prevents duplicate fetches.

Pages have no awareness of WS events. The model layer handles all WS-driven refresh.

### `onMessage(topics, handler)`

Direct one-off subscription for code outside `definePage`:

```javascript
const unsub = onMessage(['firewall'], (msg) => {
    // handle raw message
});
// Later: unsub();
```

Handler receives the parsed WS message object.

## API

### `apiFetch(url, options)`

Fetch wrapper with automatic JSON handling.

```javascript
const res = await apiFetch('/api/firewall/zones', { method: 'GET' });
// res: { ok: true, data: …, error: null, status: 200 }
```

- Automatically sets `Accept: application/json`.
- If `body` is a plain object (not `FormData`), stringifies it and sets `Content-Type: application/json`.
- When authenticated, injects `Authorization: Bearer <token>` and `X-Session-Id` headers from the auth model. Caller-passed `options.headers` are merged under the injected values — they can never override them.
- On HTTP 401 (with a token present), triggers a model-driven token refresh via the auth model, then retries the request with the rotated `Authorization` and `X-Session-Id` (the session binding rotates on every refresh). If the retry still 401s (session dead) or the refresh fails, the model is driven to the terminal state: storage is cleared and the user is redirected to `#/login`.
- On non-2xx, returns `{ ok: false, error: "message", status }`.
- On network error, returns `{ ok: false, error: "Network error", status: 0 }`.
- Passes `credentials: 'same-origin'` by default.

### `toast(message, type, duration)`

Show a toast notification. Auto-dismisses after `duration` ms (default 4000). `type` is one of `'info'`, `'success'`, `'error'`, `'warning'`. Returns a toast ID.

### `dismissToast(id)`

Dismiss a specific toast by ID.

### `ToastContainer()`

Component that renders queued toasts. Include it in the main render root:

```javascript
function MainContent() {
    return [router.component(), ToastContainer()];
}
```

### `apiSubmit(config)`

Build a form action for `formModal`. Collects body, validates, submits via `apiFetch`, toasts, and closes the modal on success. After success, refreshes the named model(s).

```javascript
apiSubmit({
    url: '/api/firewall/zones',
    method: 'POST',              // optional, defaults to 'POST'
    body: () => ({ name: $val('zone-name') }),
    validate: (b) => !b.name ? 'Name required' : null,
    successMsg: 'Zone created',
    refresh: 'firewall',         // model name(s) to refresh after success
    closeModal: () => closeModal(),  // optional, called after success toast
}),
```

Returns an array of action descriptors matching the `formModal` action shape. Spread it into the actions array: `...apiSubmit({ … })`.

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `url` | API URL |
| `method` | HTTP method (default: `'POST'`) |
| `body` | `() => body` function, or `undefined` for no body |
| `validate` | `(body) => string | null` — validation function |
| `successMsg` | Success toast message |
| `refresh` | Model name (`string`) or array of names (`string[]`) to refresh via `modelFetch()` after success |
| `closeModal` | Optional function to call after success (e.g., `() => closeModal()`) |
| `submitText` | Submit button text (default: `'Submit'`) |

### `checkAbort(ac)`

**Deprecated.** Use model layer (`modelRegister` / `modelFetch`) for data fetching with abort handling and loading state management.

Create an abort-checking function from an `AbortController`. Returns `true` if the caller should bail out early. Used between sequential fetches in multi-fetch operations.

```javascript
const isAborted = checkAbort(abortCtrl);
const r = await apiFetch('/api/first', { signal });
if (isAborted()) return;
const r2 = await apiFetch('/api/second', { signal });
```

### `refactorLoad(state, dataKey, fetchFn, opts)`

**Deprecated.** Use model layer (`modelRegister` / `modelFetch`) for data fetching with abort handling and loading state management.

Async load wrapper that encapsulates `loading`/`refreshing` flag management, abort checking, and staleness guards. Used for page-local fetches that don't go through the model layer.

```javascript
import { refactorLoad } from '/static/hoover/index.js';

async function load(state, abortController, entry) {
    await refactorLoad(state,
        // dataKey: truthy means existing data, use refreshing vs loading
        s => s.items?.length,
        // fetchFn: receives (state, signal, isAborted)
        // isAborted is a zero-arg function to re-check abort between sequential fetches
        async (s, signal, isAborted) => {
            const r = await apiFetch('/api/mydata', { signal });
            if (r.ok) s.items = r.data || [];
            else s.error = r.error;
        },
        { entry, abortController },
    );
}
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `state` | Page state object |
| `dataKey(state)` | Returns truthy if data already exists (sets `refreshing` vs `loading`) |
| `fetchFn(state, signal, isAborted)` | Page-specific async fetch logic. The third argument `isAborted()` is a zero-arg function to re-check abort/stale status between sequential fetches |
| `opts.entry` | Router entry with `requestId` for staleness checks |
| `opts.abortController` | AbortController for cancellation |

### `poll(opts)`

Poll an API endpoint until a terminal state is reached.

```javascript
import { poll } from '/static/hoover/index.js';

poll({
    url: '/api/certs/issue/' + enc(requestId),
    interval: 2000,
    timeout: 120000,
    successKey: (d) => d.status === 'completed',
    onErrorKey: (d) => d.status === 'failed',
    onComplete: (d) => {
        toast('Certificate issued', 'success');
        modelFetch('acme');
    },
    onError: (d) => {
        toast('Issuance failed', 'error');
    },
});
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `url` | Poll URL |
| `interval` | Poll interval in ms (default: `3000`) |
| `timeout` | Max poll time in ms (default: `60000`) |
| `successKey` | `(data) => boolean` — when true, stops polling and calls `onComplete` |
| `onErrorKey` | `(data) => boolean` — when true, stops polling and calls `onError` |
| `onComplete` | `(data) => void`, called on success |
| `onError` | `(data) => void`, called on error or timeout |

## UI Components

### Layout

#### `PageHeader(props)`

Page header with title, optional subtitle, and action buttons.

```javascript
PageHeader({
    title: 'Zones',
    subtitle: 'Firewall zone management',
    actions: h('button', { class: 'btn btn-primary', 'on:click': () => addZoneModal(state) }, 'Add Zone'),
})
```

#### `Tabs(props)`

Tab bar component. Writes to `state[prop]` on tab click. The caller is responsible for rendering tab body content.

```javascript
Tabs({
    state,
    tabs: ['ranges', 'leases', 'dns'],
    prop: 'activeTab',           // optional, defaults to 'activeTab'
    formatLabel: k => k.replace(/-/g, ' '),  // optional, defaults to capitalize
    onTabClick: k => { /* side effect on tab change */ },  // optional
})
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `state` | Reactive state object |
| `tabs` | Array of tab keys (e.g. `['ranges', 'leases']`) |
| `prop` | State property name for active tab (default: `'activeTab'`) |
| `formatLabel(key)` | Label formatter function (default: capitalize first letter) |
| `onTabClick(key)` | Optional callback after state update |

#### `SectionTitle({ title })`

Section header with `h3.section-title` styling.

```javascript
SectionTitle({ title: 'WAN / External' })
```

#### `DataTableSection({ title, columns, rows, emptyText, key })`

SectionTitle heading followed by a Table wrapper. Combines section heading and table into a single component.

```javascript
DataTableSection({
    title: 'WAN / External',
    columns: ['Interface', 'IPv4', 'IPv6', 'MAC', 'Zone'],
    rows: ifaceRows(wanIface),
    emptyText: 'No WAN interfaces',
    key: 'wan-ifaces',  // optional
})
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `title` | Section heading |
| `columns` | Column header labels |
| `rows` | Body row vnodes |
| `emptyText` | Empty-state message |
| `key` | VNode key |

#### `ActionGroup(...children)`

Flex button container with 8px gap. Accepts VNode children directly.

```javascript
ActionGroup(
    h('button', { class: 'btn btn-primary', 'on:click': addFn }, 'Add'),
    ActionButton({ url: '/api/apply', label: 'Apply', refresh: 'firewall' }),
)
```

#### `renderGuard(state, title, subtitle, data)`

Return early with loading/error/empty-state VNodes. Returns `null` when data is ready, allowing the page to render its content.

**Single model:**

```javascript
const guard = renderGuard(state.firewall, 'Zones', 'Zone management', state.firewall.data?.zones);
if (guard) return guard;
```

**Multiple models (use `renderGuardMulti`):**

```javascript
const guard = renderGuardMulti('Proxy', 'Nginx reverse proxy', state.nginx, state.acme);
if (guard) return guard;
```

`renderGuardMulti` internally calls `collectLoadingModels` then delegates to `renderGuard`. For fine-grained control over loading flags, `collectLoadingModels` is still available.

Checks `state.loading`, `state.error`, and data presence in that order. Uses `state.refreshing` to show "Refreshing…" instead of "Loading…".

### Data Display

#### `Badge({ text, variant })`

Colored label. `variant`: `'info'`, `'success'`, `'warning'`, `'danger'`.

#### `StatusDot({ status })`

Status indicator dot. `status`: `'success'`/`'up'` (green), `'danger'`/`'down'` (red), or `'pending'` (yellow).

#### `StatCard({ label, value, meta })`

Dashboard stat card with label, value, and optional meta.

```javascript
StatCard({ label: 'Active Zones', value: 3, meta: 'lan, wan, dmz' })
```

#### `StatusText({ status })`

StatusDot + human-readable label. Returns `[StatusDot, ' ', label]`.

```javascript
StatusText({ status: iface.state })
// status: 'up' → [green dot, ' ', 'Up']
// status: 'down' → [red dot, ' ', 'Down']
// status: 'pending' → [yellow dot, ' ', 'Pending']
```

#### `Empty({ text })`

Empty-state placeholder card.

#### `Card({ header, children })`

Card container with optional header.

#### `ConfirmDelete(props)`

Delete button with native `confirm()` dialog, then API `DELETE` call, toast, and model refresh. Shows a spinner animation during the API call, auto-disables the button, and optionally marks the parent row/card as pending-deletion until the model refresh removes it from the DOM.

```javascript
ConfirmDelete({
    url: '/api/firewall/zones/myzone',
    message: 'Delete zone myzone?',
    success: 'Zone deleted',
    refresh: 'firewall',
    label: 'Delete',

| `body` | Optional JSON body to send with DELETE |
| `deleteKey` | Unique identifier for the item. When provided, marks the row/card as pending-deletion (opacity + red border) after API success until model refresh removes it from the DOM. Requires `_deleting.has(key)` class binding on the parent element. |

#### `ActionButton(props)`

Inline button that POSTs to an API endpoint, toasts on result, and optionally refreshes models. Supports toggle labels for on/off buttons. Shows a spinner animation during API calls and auto-disables the button to prevent double-submit.

```javascript
ActionButton({
    url: '/api/dhcp/apply',
    method: 'POST',               // optional, defaults to 'POST'
    body: () => undefined,        // optional
    label: 'Apply',
    successMsg: 'Applied',
    errorType: 'error',           // optional, defaults to 'error'
    refresh: 'dnsmasq',           // model name(s) to refresh
    cls: 'btn btn-outline',       // optional
    disabled: false,
})

// Toggle variant (e.g., enable/disable masquerade):
ActionButton({
    url: '/api/firewall/masquerade',
    body: () => ({ zone: z.name, enable: !z.masquerade }),
    labelOn: 'Disable',
    labelOff: 'Enable',

| `cls` | Button CSS classes (default: `'btn btn-outline'`) |
| `disabled` | Disabled state |

#### `ActionCell(props)`

Standardizes "action button + ConfirmDelete" in a table cell. The delete button shows a spinner during API calls and supports pending-deletion row styling. Use for rows that need an edit action alongside a delete action.

```javascript
ActionCell({
    editLabel: 'Edit',
    editClick: () => editDomain({ ...d, _s: state }),
    removeUrl: '/api/proxy/domains/' + enc(d.domain),
    removeMessage: 'Remove proxy for ' + d.domain + '?',
    removeSuccess: 'Domain removed',
    removeRefresh: 'proxy',
    removeLabel: 'Delete',

| `expired`, `certStatus === 'expired'`, or `daysRemaining <= 0` | `'Expired'` (danger) |
| `daysRemaining <= 30` | `'Xd left'` (warning) |
| `daysRemaining` (positive, > 30) | `'Xd left'` (success) |
| fallback | `certStatus` or `'N/A'` (info) |

ServiceStatus({ state: dmsk.state || 'down', label: 'Dnsmasq' })
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `state` | Service state string (e.g. `'up'`, `'down'`) |
| `label` | Optional label text after the badge |

#### `MonoText(props)`

Monospace text with optional truncation. Renders as `<span class="mono-text">`.

```javascript
MonoText({ text: p.publicKey })
MonoText({ text: p.publicKey, maxLength: 20 })
// Truncates with "..." if text exceeds maxLength
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `text` | Text to display |
| `maxLength` | Truncate with "..." if longer (optional) |

#### `ZoneSelect(props)`

Dropdown to select a firewall zone. Renders as `<select class="form-select">`.

```javascript
ZoneSelect({
    zones: state.zones,
    value: iface.zone,
    onChange: (z) => changeZone(iface.name, z, state),
})
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `zones` | Available zone names (`string[]`) |
| `value` | Currently selected zone |
| `onChange` | `(zone) => void` callback |
| `placeholder` | Placeholder option text (optional) |

#### `Table({ columns, rows, emptyText, wrapCard, key })`

Table wrapper with header, body, and empty-state row. `rows` expects pre-built `<tr>` VNodes.

```javascript
Table({
    columns: ['Name', 'Status', 'Action'],
    rows: items.map(i => h('tr', null,
        h('td', null, esc(i.name)),
        h('td', null, StatusDot({ status: i.state })),
        h('td', null, ConfirmDelete({
            url: '/api/item/' + enc(i.id),
            message: 'Delete ' + esc(i.name) + '?',
            success: 'Item removed',
            refresh: 'firewall',
        })),
    )),
    emptyText: 'No items',
})
```

### Modal

#### `openModal(renderFn)`

Open a modal dialog. `renderFn` receives the modal content element:

```javascript
openModal((inner) => {
    inner.innerHTML = '<h2 class="modal-title">Details</h2>…';
});
```

#### `closeModal([idx])`

Close a modal. Without argument, closes the topmost modal.

#### `closeAllModals()`

Close all open modals.

#### `formModal(inner, title, fields, actions)`

Render a standard modal form inside the modal content element.

**Field shape:**

```javascript
{ label: 'Name', id: 'name', placeholder: 'Enter name' }
{ label: 'Type', id: 'type', tag: 'select', options: [['a', true], 'b', 'c'] }
{ label: 'Notes', id: 'notes', tag: 'textarea', value: '' }
```

- `tag`: `'input'` (default), `'select'`, `'textarea'`
- For `select`: `options` is an array of strings or `[value, selected]` tuples
- `value` is pre-populated value

**Action shape:**

```javascript
{ label: 'Save', cls: 'btn-primary', action: 's', handler: () => { … } }
{ label: 'Cancel', cls: 'btn-outline', action: 'c', handler: () => closeModal() }
```

The `action` field becomes a `data-action` attribute used for button lookup.

#### `QuickModal(props)`

Factory that returns a function to open a modal with form fields and API submission. The returned function accepts a `data` argument forwarded to `title`, `fields`, `submit.url`, and `submit.body` resolvers. Use as an `on:click` handler.

```javascript
const addZone = QuickModal({
    title: 'Add Zone',                          // string or (data) => string
    fields: (data) => [                         // or static array
        { label: 'Name', id: 'name', placeholder: 'Enter name' },
    ],
    submit: {
        url: '/api/zones',                      // or (data) => string
        method: 'POST',                         // optional, default 'POST'
        body: (data) => ({ name: $val('name') }), // or static object
        validate: (b) => !b.name ? 'Name required' : null,
        successMsg: 'Zone created',             // or (data) => string
    },
    refresh: 'firewall',               // model name(s) to refresh after success
});

// Usage in render:
h('button', { 'on:click': () => addZone(state) }, 'Add Zone')
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `title` | Modal title or `(data) => string` |
| `fields` | Form field descriptors or `(data) => object[]` |
| `submit.url` | API URL or `(data) => string` |
| `submit.method` | HTTP method (default: `'POST'`) |
| `submit.body` | `(data) => object`, body to send (note: the function is called with the data argument from the outer call) |
| `submit.validate` | `(body) => string | null`, validation function |
| `submit.successMsg` | Success toast message or `(data) => string` |
| `refresh` | Model name (`string`) or array of names (`string[]`) to refresh via `modelFetch()` after success |
| `handler` | Optional custom handler `(data, closeModal) => void` that bypasses apiSubmit |
| `submitLabel` | Submit button label (default: `'Submit'`) |

#### `MultiSelectModal(props)`

Factory that returns a function to open a multi-select modal. Use as an `on:click` handler in VNode props.

```javascript
const editIface = MultiSelectModal({
    title: 'Interfaces: ' + zoneName,
    url: '/api/firewall/zones/' + enc(zoneName) + '/interfaces',
    options: state.interfaces,
    selected: zone.interfaces,
    fieldKey: 'interfaces',
    successMsg: 'Interfaces updated',
    refresh: 'firewall',
});

// Usage:
h('button', { 'on:click': editIface }, 'Edit')
```

**Parameters:**

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| `title` | Modal title |
| `url` | API POST URL |
| `options` | All selectable options (`string[]`) |
| `selected` | Currently selected values (`string[]`) |
| `fieldKey` | JSON key for the submitted field |
| `successMsg` | Success toast message (default: `'Updated'`) |
| `refresh` | Model name (`string`) or array of names (`string[]`) to refresh via `modelFetch()` after success |

### Toast

#### `ToastContainer()`

Render the toast notification container. Include in the main render root. See API section above.

## Helpers

| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| `esc(s)` | HTML-escape a string for safe text content |
| `att_esc(s)` | Escape for safe use in HTML attributes |
| `enc(s)` | URL-encode a string (`encodeURIComponent`) |
| `$val(id)` | Get `value` of `document.getElementById(id)` |
| `parseZones(data)` | Parse zone data from API responses into a flat string array |
| `downloadBlob(blob, filename)` | Trigger a browser file download from a Blob |

## Static Asset Caching

The server handles caching headers for static assets. Browser cache invalidation is managed
through server-side cache-control headers rather than query string version pins.

Dev mode (`VACUUM_WALL_DEV` set) disables aggressive static asset caching.

## Conventions

- **Pages** export `definePage({ … })` as default. Each page in `webui/static/pages/`.
- **Model-first data loading**: Pages get data from `getModel(name)` in `init()`. The model layer handles fetching, loading states, error handling, and WS-driven refresh. Pages never call `apiFetch` in `load()`.
- **Render pattern**: `renderGuard` early return → data rendering. Always return VNode array or single VNode.
- **Multi-model pages**: Use `renderGuardMulti(title, subtitle, ...models)` for combined loading/error guard. `collectLoadingModels` is still exported for edge cases needing raw flags.
- **Mutation refresh**: UI components use `refresh: 'model_name'` to trigger `modelFetch()` after API mutations. Accepts single name or array.
- **Keys** on list items use unique identifiers (`item.id`), not array indices.
- **Escaping**: Use `esc()` for any user-controlled text rendered in `h()` children. Use `enc()` for URL segments.
- **Modals**: Use `formModal` + `apiSubmit` for standard CRUD operations. Use `openModal` + custom render function for non-form content.
- **Log / stream data**: Pages that fetch raw text or streams (e.g., `logs.js`) can use the model layer with a parameterized fetch. Register the model with a `fetch(signal, param)` that selects the right URL based on `param`, and call `modelFetch('logs', tabKey)`.
