bvandeusen 8d466ebdd5 fix(flutter): reconcile stale playlists + recover from 404 on tap
The 404 on tapping the For-You tile traced to stale drift rows.
BuildSystemPlaylists rotates UUIDs on every rebuild, so old For-You
/ Songs-Like ids accumulate in cachedPlaylists. The list provider's
fetchAndPopulate was only doing insertOrReplace, which adds new rows
but never removes the obsolete ones — so the home tile renders 8
playlists when the server only knows 4, and 4 of those tiles 404 on
tap.

Two fixes:

playlistsListProvider.fetchAndPopulate now reconciles. After
fetching the fresh list, deleteWhere any user-owned drift row whose
id isn't in the fresh response, then upsert the fresh set in the
same batch. Public-from-others rows are left alone — they're not
keyed by ownership and we don't want to drop someone else's public
playlist just because the current user's response didn't enumerate
it. Operates inside the existing batch so it's atomic.

playlistDetailProvider.fetchAndPopulate now treats a DioException
404 as "this row is stale": delete the cachedPlaylists + any
cachedPlaylistTracks rows for this id, return false so the UI yields
emptyDetail. The next render of the home row sees the row gone and
the tile disappears, completing the cleanup.

Side note: every system-playlist rebuild discards drift rows for the
just-evicted UUIDs and writes the new ones. That cycle's been
silently churning since system playlists shipped — this is the
first time the cleanup actually runs.

Minstrel mobile client

Flutter (iOS + Android) sibling of the SvelteKit web SPA. v1 first slice ships: scaffold, auth, library browse (home / artist / album), likes, player with background audio + lock-screen controls.

Setup

cd flutter_client
flutter pub get
./tool/sync_shared.sh         # copy tokens / error-copy / placeholders from ../web
dart run tool/gen_tokens.dart # regen lib/theme/tokens.dart from shared/fabledsword.tokens.json
flutter run

sync_shared.sh is idempotent. CI runs it on every build; rerun locally whenever web/src/lib/styles/tokens.json, web/src/lib/styles/error-copy.json, or web/static/placeholders/album-fallback.svg changes.

Project layout

See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-02-flutter-mobile-foundation-design.md section 3. Briefly:

  • lib/api/ — dio client, ApiError, error-copy loader, per-surface endpoints.
  • lib/auth/ — server URL screen, login screen, AuthController + secure storage.
  • lib/library/ — home, artist detail, album detail, providers, widgets.
  • lib/likes/ — LikeButton + optimistic toggle controller.
  • lib/player/ — audio handler, player provider, mini PlayerBar, NowPlaying.
  • lib/theme/ — FabledSword token Dart class (generated), ThemeExtension, ThemeData.
  • lib/shared/ — routing (go_router shell), version gate, connection error banner.

shared/fabledsword.tokens.json and assets/error-copy.json are synced from web/. Don't edit them directly — edit web/src/lib/styles/ and re-run ./tool/sync_shared.sh.

Architecture

  • State: Riverpod 2 (AsyncValue, AsyncNotifier, family providers).
  • HTTP: dio 5 with a Bearer-auth interceptor; 401 clears the session and the router redirects to login.
  • Audio: just_audio wrapped by audio_service for background playback + lock-screen / notification controls.
  • Auth: Bearer tokens in flutter_secure_storage. Server already supports both cookie (web SPA) and Bearer (internal/auth/session.go).
  • Routing: go_router with a ShellRoute so the PlayerBar persists across navigation. Cold launch flow: no server-url → /server-url, url set / no token → /login, token present → /home.

CI

.forgejo/workflows/flutter.yml runs on push to dev/main, tag pushes, PR to main, and manual dispatch — path-filtered to flutter_client/** plus the shared web inputs. Steps: sync, analyze, test, build APK. Debug APKs upload as artifacts; release APKs attach to the Forgejo release on tag.

Versioning

pubspec.yaml version mirrors the server tag (e.g. server v0.1.0 → Flutter 0.1.0+1). The server's /healthz returns min_client_version; old clients show an Update Required modal and refuse to operate. Bump internal/server/version.go MinClientVersion when a server-side change requires a paired client update.

Distribution

  • Android: APK on the Forgejo release page. No Play Store for v1.
  • iOS: TestFlight on tag (manual upload v1, automate later).

Out-of-scope for slice 1

Search, discover, requests, settings beyond server URL, admin, listening history, playlists, offline cache (#357). Those land in subsequent slices with their own brainstorm/spec/plan cycles. Per the operator's M7 ordering decision (2026-05-02), slice 2+ pauses to ship the missing web features first (#352 playlists, #362 theme toggle, #363 queue UI, #364 listening history, etc.) before mirroring on Flutter.
