Root cause: publish_reaction_event sends a RoomMessageEvent (not
reaction_added) with reactions field set. The onRoomMessage handler
previously returned prev immediately when a duplicate ID was found,
skipping the reaction update entirely.
Fix:
- Add reactions field to RoomMessagePayload so TypeScript knows it's there
- When a duplicate message ID is found AND payload carries reactions,
update the existing message's reactions field instead of ignoring
- ReactionItem and ReactionGroup have identical shapes, so assignment works
Backend:
- Add reaction_batch handler: GET /api/rooms/{room_id}/messages/reactions/batch?message_ids=...
- Register route in libs/api/room/mod.rs
- Backend already had message_reactions_batch service method, just needed HTTP exposure
Frontend:
- Add ReactionListData import to room-context.tsx
- Fix thisLoadReactions client type (was using broken NonNullable<ReturnType<>>)
- Remove unused oldRoomId variable
- Delete unused useRoomWs.ts hook (RoomWsClient has no on/off methods)
- Remove unused EmojiPicker function and old manual overlay picker from RoomMessageBubble
- Remove unused savedToken variable in room-ws-client
On auto-reconnect (scheduleReconnect), attempt connection with the stored
wsToken first. If the WS closes immediately (server rejected the token),
fall back to fetching a fresh token and retrying. Only requests a new
token when the existing one fails or when connect() is called manually
with forceNewToken=true.
- Remove clearRoomMessages on room switch: IDB cache now persists across
visits, enabling instant re-entry without API round-trip
- Increase initial API limit from 50 → 200: more messages cached upfront
- Add loadOlderMessagesFromIdb: uses 'by_room_seq' compound index to
serve scroll-back history from IDB without API call
- loadMore now tries IDB first before falling back to API
- sendMessage: guard with sendingRef to prevent concurrent in-flight
sends (was missing — rapid clicks could create duplicate messages)
- resubscribeAll: log at warn level instead of silently swallowing,
so operators can observe auth expiry or persistent failure patterns
- RoomMessageBubble: apply opacity-60 when isPending or isFailed,
and hide action toolbar for pending messages (can't react/act on
unconfirmed messages)
Backend:
- Atomic seq assignment via Redis Lua script: INCR + GET run atomically
inside a Lua script, preventing duplicate seqs under concurrent requests.
DB reconciliation only triggers on cross-server handoff (rare path).
- Broadcast channel capacity: 10,000 → 100,000 to prevent message drops
under high-throughput rooms.
Frontend:
- Optimistic sendMessage: adds message to UI immediately (marked
isOptimistic=true) so user sees it instantly. Replaces with
server-confirmed message on success, marks as isOptimisticError on
failure. Fire-and-forget to IndexedDB for persistence.
- Seq-based dedup in onRoomMessage: replaces optimistic message by
matching seq, preventing duplicates when WS arrives before REST confirm.
- Reconnect jitter: replaced deterministic backoff with full jitter
(random within backoff window), preventing thundering herd on server
restart.
- Visual WS status dot in room header: green=connected, amber
(pulsing)=connecting, red=error/disconnected.
- isPending check extended to cover both old 'temp-' prefix and new
isOptimistic flag, showing 'Sending...' / 'Failed' badges.
