sjgandClaude Opus 5 eee3630f04 [feat](trx-frontend-http): compact single-row top bar
The header's height depended on the viewport width, and not even
monotonically: 112px at 1440, 169px at 1100, 131px at 900, 246px at 720.
Both control groups wrapped, so every width produced a different ragged
block — eight page tabs across four rows at 1100px, and action controls
across three.  Four different control heights (32, 34, 45 and 54px) sat
in the same row, the 54px one being the rig picker with its summary
stacked underneath, and on narrow viewports the icon buttons stretched to
fill half the row, rendering a play triangle centred in a 249px box.

Lay both groups out as one row that never wraps.  Controls are a uniform
2rem and no longer stretch, the rig summary sits inline beside its select,
and the page tabs scroll instead of wrapping.  Secondary controls —
layout, style and theme — move into an overflow menu when the bar cannot
hold them, leaving audio, record and the rig picker inline.

Deciding when they no longer fit needs natural widths, not rendered ones:
the nav has min-width 0 and scrolls, so it always shrinks to the leftover
space and always reports scrolling, and the bar reports overflow even when
nothing is clipped.  scrollWidth on the scroll container is its
unconstrained content width, which is what the fit test compares against
the space available.

Measured after the change: 72px at 1440, 1280, 1100, 900 and 480, every
control 32px, nothing clipped at any width.

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).

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.
