- Add structured SQLite configuration in main process with separate settings for
initialization and operations
- Implement proper retry logic with configurable attempts and delays
- Add connection pool management to prevent resource exhaustion
- Reduce initialization timeout from 30s to 10s for faster feedback
- Add proper cleanup of timeouts and resources
- Maintain consistent retry behavior in preload script
This change addresses the cascade of SQLite timeout errors seen in the logs
by implementing proper timing controls and resource management. The main
process now handles initialization more robustly with configurable retries,
while the preload script maintains its existing retry behavior for
compatibility.
Security Impact:
- No security implications
- Improves application stability
- Prevents resource exhaustion
Testing:
- Verify SQLite initialization completes within new timeout
- Confirm retry behavior works as expected
- Check that connection pool limits are respected
- Ensure proper cleanup of resources
- Consolidate preload script with secure IPC bridge and channel validation
- Ensure single initialization path in main process
- Add robust error handling and user feedback
- Fix race conditions in window creation and SQLite ready signal
Current state:
- SQLite initializes successfully in main process
- IPC bridge is established and events are transmitted
- Window creation and loading sequence is correct
- Renderer receives ready signal and mounts app
- Database operations still fail in renderer due to connection issues
Known issues:
- SQLite proxy not properly initialized in renderer
- Database connection not established in renderer
- Error logging attempts to use database before ready
- Connection state management needs improvement
This commit represents a stable point where IPC communication
is working but database operations need to be fixed.
- Remove connection object and connection pool logic
- Call all database methods directly on window.CapacitorSQLite with db name
- Refactor migrations, queries, and exec to match Capacitor SQLite Electron API
- Ensure preload script exposes both window.electron and window.CapacitorSQLite
- Fixes runtime errors related to missing query/run methods on connection
- Improves security and cross-platform compatibility

- Add logic in main process to resolve and create the correct database directory and file path using Electron's app, path, and fs modules
- Pass absolute dbPath to CapacitorSQLite plugin for reliable database creation
- Add extensive logging for debugging database location, permissions, and initialization
- Remove redundant open() call after createConnection in Electron platform service
- Add IPC handlers for essential SQLite operations (echo, createConnection, execute, query, closeConnection, isAvailable)
- Improve error handling and logging throughout initialization and IPC
- Still investigating database file creation and permissions issues
- Assign CapacitorSQLite instance to the global sqlitePlugin variable so it is accessible in IPC handlers.
- Enhance error logging in the IPC handler to include JSON stringification and stack trace for better debugging.
- Reveal that the generic .handle() method is not available on the plugin, clarifying the next steps for correct IPC wiring.
- Added "type": "module" to package.json to support ES module imports for Electron SQLite
- Renamed postcss.config.js to postcss.config.cjs to maintain CommonJS syntax
- This ensures build tools can properly load the PostCSS configuration
- Changed from direct plugin usage to SQLiteConnection pattern
- Matches how platform services use the SQLite plugin
- Removed handle() method dependency
- Added proper method routing in IPC handler
The app now launches without initialization errors. Next steps:
- Test actual SQLite operations (createConnection, query, etc.)
- Verify database creation and access
- Add error handling for database operations
- Remove worker thread approach in favor of direct plugin initialization
- Initialize CapacitorSQLiteElectron in main process
- Set up IPC handler to forward SQLite operations
- Remove unused worker files and build config
This reverts to a simpler, more reliable approach for SQLite in Electron,
using the plugin as intended in the main process.
- Update certificate view canvas rendering and QR code generation
- Upgrade dependencies (expo-file-system, expo-font, expo-keep-awake)
- Fix type imports for nostr-tools and dexie-export-import
- Update vite config for better dependency resolution
- Clean up main entry points (capacitor, electron, pywebview)
- Improve error handling in API and plan services
- Add type safety to API error handling
- Update build configuration for platform-specific builds
This is a work in progress commit focusing on certificate view improvements
and dependency maintenance. Some type definitions and build configurations
may need further refinement.
Updates PWA configuration to:
- Disable PWA features for Capacitor builds
- Add @capacitor/app dependency
- Update environment variable handling in build config
This prevents conflicts between PWA and native app functionality
when building for mobile platforms.
Technical changes:
- Add isCapacitor check to PWA disable logic
- Update VITE_PWA_ENABLED environment variable definition
- Add @capacitor/app to package dependencies
Split monolithic vite.config.mjs into separate config files:
- vite.config.web.mts
- vite.config.electron.mts
- vite.config.capacitor.mts
- vite.config.pywebview.mts
- vite.config.common.mts
- vite.config.utils.mts
Updates:
- Modify package.json scripts to use specific config files
- Add electron-builder as dev dependency
- Update electron build configuration
- Fix electron resource paths
- Remove old vite.config.mjs and utils.js
This change improves maintainability by:
- Separating concerns for different build targets
- Making build configurations more explicit
- Reducing complexity in individual config files
