[fix](trx-frontend-http): stop the decode history replay giving up at 20s
Reloading a second time sometimes showed history the first load did not,
and the safety valve is why: it called one function that both released
the buffered live decodes and tore the history worker down, so any load
where the replay had not finished inside twenty seconds — a large
backlog, a cold cache, a slow link — dropped whatever had not arrived,
without a word.  A reload got another go at it, and the second one is
faster because everything is cached by then.

Those are two separate things now.  At the timeout the live decodes are
released so the panels are not held back, the replay carries on, and the
progress says so.  The fallback's error path retries once and then says
"Decode history unavailable" rather than leaving the operator to guess
whether there was anything to see.

The progress is no longer a scrim.  It was fixed to the whole viewport
with a wash over the page — the waterfall, the decode panels, all of it —
for the length of the replay, which is exactly when there is something
worth watching.  It is a corner card with a bar: indeterminate while the
payload is on the wire, then filling as N of M messages replay.

None of this was reachable from a test.  /decode/history answers in CBOR
and the worker reads the body as CBOR unconditionally, but the fixture
served JSON, so every browser run had been exercising the client's retry
path and never its history path.  It encodes CBOR now, including the
64-bit form the millisecond timestamps need, and decode-flow serves 1200
records and holds the client to restoring all of them on the first load,
showing progress while it does, and never covering the page with it.

trx-rs

A modular amateur radio control stack written in Rust.

License

trx-rs splits radio hardware access from user-facing interfaces so you can run rig control, SDR DSP, decoding, audio streaming, and web access as separate, composable pieces.

Backends Yaesu FT-817, Yaesu FT-450D, SoapySDR
Frontends Web UI, rigctl-compatible TCP, JSON-over-TCP
Decoders AIS, APRS, CW, FT8, RDS, VDES, WSPR
Audio Opus streaming between server, client, and browser

Quick Start

1. Install dependencies

Debian / Ubuntu
sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config cmake libopus-dev libasound2-dev
# Optional — SDR support
sudo apt install libsoapysdr-dev
Fedora
sudo dnf install gcc pkg-config cmake opus-devel alsa-lib-devel
# Optional — SDR support
sudo dnf install SoapySDR-devel
Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S base-devel pkgconf cmake opus alsa-lib
# Optional — SDR support
sudo pacman -S soapysdr
macOS (Homebrew)
brew install cmake opus
# Optional — SDR support
brew install soapysdr

See Build Requirements in the wiki for details on each library.

Note: cmake is required even when a system Opus library is installed. The audiopus_sys crate probes for Opus via pkg-config; if it is not found (or pkg-config is unavailable), it falls back to compiling a vendored copy of Opus with CMake. A missing cmake therefore fails the build with is cmake not installed? rather than a missing-Opus error.

2. Build

cargo build --release

Build without SDR support: cargo build --release --no-default-features

3. Configure

Run the interactive setup wizard to generate config files for your station:

./target/release/trx-configurator

The wizard walks you through rig selection, serial port detection, audio settings, and frontend options, then writes trx-server.toml and trx-client.toml.

Alternatively, generate example configs and edit them by hand:

./target/release/trx-server --print-config > trx-server.toml
./target/release/trx-client --print-config > trx-client.toml

4. Run

./target/release/trx-server --config trx-server.toml
./target/release/trx-client --config trx-client.toml

Open the configured HTTP frontend address in a browser (default http://localhost:8080).

    C1 <-->|internal channels| F2["rigctl :4532"]

Each trx-server owns one or more rigs and runs DSP, decoding, and audio capture locally. A trx-client connects to any number of servers over TCP and exposes them through a unified set of frontends.
