- Documented unified deletion process for single, single-in-series, and recurring series events
- Explained custom dialog interception of Syncfusion RecurrenceAlert and DeleteAlert
- Updated both README.md and .github/copilot-instructions.md to match current frontend logic
- Add detach functionality for individual occurrences of recurring events
- Create POST /api/events/<id>/occurrences/<date>/detach endpoint
- Implement EventException-based EXDATE generation for master events
- Add user confirmation dialog for single vs series editing choice
- Implement manual recurrence expansion with DST timezone tolerance
- Support FREQ=DAILY and FREQ=WEEKLY with BYDAY patterns and UNTIL dates
- Create standalone events from detached occurrences without affecting master series
- Add GET /api/events/<id> endpoint for fetching master event data
- Allow editing recurring series even when master event date is in the past
- Replace browser confirm dialogs with Syncfusion dialog components
- Remove debug logging while preserving error handling
- Update documentation for recurring event functionality
BREAKING: Frontend now manually expands recurring events instead of relying on Syncfusion's EXDATE handling
This enables users to edit individual occurrences of recurring events (creating standalone events)
or edit the entire series (updating all future occurrences) through an intuitive UI workflow.
The system properly handles timezone transitions, holiday exclusions, and complex recurrence patterns.
Backend: generate EventException on create/update when skip_holidays or recurrence changes; emit RecurrenceException (EXDATE) with exact occurrence start time (UTC)
API: return master events with RecurrenceRule + RecurrenceException
Frontend: map RecurrenceException → recurrenceException; ensure SkipHolidays instances never render on holidays; place TentTree icon (black) next to main event icon via template
Docs: update README and Copilot instructions for recurrence/holiday behavior
Cleanup: remove dataSource and debug console logs
Replace placeholder clone URL with actual repo URL:
https://github.com/RobbStarkAustria/infoscreen_2025.git
Add first-run step to initialize the database using the one-shot script:
python server/initialize_database.py
Mention initialize_database.py in project structure
Add a one-shot DB init command to the “Database Management” section
Update Copilot instructions:
Prefer initialize_database.py for local dev (migrations + defaults + academic periods)
Note legacy init scripts were removed; use Alembic + initialize_database.py going forward
No runtime/code changes; documentation only
DB/model
Add Conversion model + ConversionStatus enum (pending, processing, ready, failed)
Alembic migrations: create conversions table, indexes, unique (source_event_media_id, target_format, file_hash), and NOT NULL on file_hash
API
Enqueue on upload (ppt|pptx|odp) in routes/eventmedia.py: compute sha256, upsert Conversion, enqueue job
New routes:
POST /api/conversions/<media_id>/pdf — ensure/enqueue conversion
GET /api/conversions/<media_id>/status — latest status/details
GET /api/files/converted/<path> — serve converted PDFs
Register conversions blueprint in wsgi
Worker
server/worker.py: convert_event_media_to_pdf
Calls Gotenberg /forms/libreoffice/convert, writes to server/media/converted/
Updates Conversion status, timestamps, error messages
Fix media root resolution to /server/media
Prefer function enqueue over string path; expose server.worker in package init for RQ string compatibility
Queue/infra
server/task_queue.py: RQ queue helper (REDIS_URL, default redis://redis:6379/0)
docker-compose:
Add redis and gotenberg services
Add worker service (rq worker conversions)
Pass REDIS_URL and GOTENBERG_URL to server/worker
Mount shared media volume in prod for API/worker parity
docker-compose.override:
Add dev redis/gotenberg/worker services
Ensure PYTHONPATH + working_dir allow importing server.worker
Use rq CLI instead of python -m rq for worker
Dashboard dev: run as appropriate user/root and pre-create/chown caches to avoid EACCES
Dashboard dev UX
Vite: set cacheDir .vite to avoid EACCES in node_modules
Disable Node inspector by default to avoid port conflicts
Docs
Update copilot-instructions.md with conversion system: flow, services, env vars, endpoints, storage paths, and data model
API, holiday indicators; UI polish; bump version
Dashboard:
Add Syncfusion academic period dropdown next to group selector
Navigate scheduler to today's month/day within selected period year on change
Show adjacent holiday plan badge; keep "holidays in view" counter on the right
Compact dropdown widths for a tighter toolbar
Default blocking of scheduling on holidays; block entries styled like all-day; black text styling
API:
Add academic periods routes: list, get active, set active (POST), for_date
Register blueprint in wsgi
Holidays:
Support TXT/CSV upload; headerless TXT uses columns 2-4; region remains null
Docs:
Update shared Copilot instructions with academic periods endpoints and dashboard integration details
- Add AcademicPeriod model with support for schuljahr/semester/trimester
- Extend Event and EventMedia models with optional academic_period_id
- Create Alembic migration (8d1df7199cb7) for academic periods system
- Add init script for Austrian school year defaults (2024/25-2026/27)
- Maintain full backward compatibility for existing events/media
- Update program-info.json to version 2025.1.0-alpha.6
Database changes:
- New academic_periods table with unique name constraint
- Foreign key relationships with proper indexing
- Support for multiple period types with single active period
This lays the foundation for period-based organization of events
and media content, specifically designed for school environments
with future extensibility for universities.
