The print-time files are pinned (poster-render.js and its classic copy,
packet-strings.json, ne-places.json, india-states.json) and were fetched with
cache: 'force-cache', which returns any cached copy, however old. After a
re-pin, a reader who had printed before kept the previous copy: it failed its
pin on every print and the print fell back without a word. Page 1 became the
stored poster, a non-English packet would print in English, and India's state
cards would be lost.
sha384.js fetchPinned fetches force-cache first (fast, and offline once
cached) and, when the copy is not served or fails its pin, once more with
cache: 'reload', which skips and refreshes the HTTP cache; only that answer
decides. posterSheets (the generator and the places table), packetStrings and
indiaStates all fetch through it. The classic-script path refreshes the cache
the same way and retries a refused tag once.
check:pinned-fetch-fresh models the HTTP cache with stale copies: page 1 still
draws, the packet keeps every language, India keeps its 36 states; a matching
cached copy is used with one request; wrong bytes are refused. The previous
loaders fail it. Self-test poisons: no fresh refetch, never the cache, a
mismatch accepted, a loader fetching its pinned file directly.
Each country's region is set to the live wagf_region its groups carry (file
label spelling); only the region field changes (stats, bbox, count, India row
untouched). The stale 'Other' bucket (18 countries) empties out and each moves
to its real region: USA and the non-Spanish Caribbean + the Guianas to North
America & Non-Spanish Caribbean; Andorra/Monaco/San Marino to Europe; Cocos,
Christmas, Niue, Norfolk, Tokelau, Wallis & Futuna to Oceania. Europe goes
27 -> 30, matching the live Regions dashboard.
check:poster-section drops 'other' from its covering scopes (the bucket is now
empty, so the /regions/other scope resolves to zero countries); the seven real
regions still cover all 175 countries exactly once.
Region-only diff (18 region lines); B25 India withheld unchanged
(check:country-sheet-one-path, poster-section, poster-browser-equiv,
poster-design-catalogue all PASS).
The facts row's COUNTRIES cell is ISO3_NAME[iso3] || iso3, and 13 territories that have country posters were
missing from the table, so their shipped sheets printed the raw code there (CCK, CXR, ESH, GIB, HKG, JEY, KOS,
MAC, MCO, NFK, SJM, SXM, TKL). Kosovo's own label in country-posters.json was the code too, so its title and
its wall card read "KOS".
- ISO3_NAME gains the 13 (the short names the posters already print as each label; SXM "Sint Maarten").
- KOS's label is "Kosovo".
Every country in country-posters.json now has a name, and no label is a raw code.
The Driver's print standard: every export is generated when it is asked for, and only previews are
stored. The zone and country map sheets — the poster, and the map-only sheet on a packet's page 1 —
existed only if library/scripts/posters/generate.mjs (Node) had written them ahead of time; no country
had a print-resolution sheet at all.
- library/packet/poster-render.js is generate.mjs's drawing layer (2,645 lines) as a pure factory,
createPosterGenerator({ env, SERIES_DEF, ISO3_NAME, adm0, adm1Ind, adm1Chn, nePlaces, series }). Moved
VERBATIM (template literals carry their whitespace into the output), `process.env` read through a
local shadow; its inputs are its free variables, found by a scope-aware parse, not a grep (a grep
missed adm0, and the proof caught it). generate.mjs is now its Node driver.
- PROVEN BYTE-IDENTICAL: all 118 sheets of a pinned offline matrix — the 28 zones in 3x4, 3x3, letter
and packet, and a country sample at both sheet sizes — hash the same before and after.
- data/zone-sheet.js is which group pins in which zone (first claim wins), now ONE function both the
Node driver and the browser call, so a group cannot pin in one zone on paper and another on screen.
- library/packet/posterSheets.js feeds the factory in the browser: the served full-resolution
boundaries, the shared series and places tables, a generator per call (caching by format pinned the
first caller's data on every later sheet). generateCountrySheet does a country end to end;
data/zone-sheet-print.js a UPG-100 zone. ISO3_NAME moves to library/data (territory-counts re-exports).
- usePosterPrints gains opts.sheet: the poster print is the generated letter sheet as a VECTOR page,
and the packet's page 1 the generated map-only sheet (item.mapId honoured); stored images remain the
fallback when generation fails. PosterWall forwards it; the Country Posters wall, the UPG-100 wall and
the UPG-100 map pass it. The UPG-100 wall and map drop their own record fetches for the shared
provider, and the map's legend and selection HUD offer the card deck (production).
- check:poster-browser-equiv: the browser feed's sheet is byte-identical to the Node generator's for an
India zone (packet) and a country — proven two-sided (it fails when the feed drops the city dots).
check:selection-kinds reads the handler's branches instead of a fixed poster/packet pair, anchored on
`if (` (proven: it fails with the cards branch deleted). library/packet/README.md: the standard.
gates:pre 68/68; both bundles build.
Our data speaks ISO alpha-3. Intl.DisplayNames('region') takes alpha-2 or
UN M49 and NOT alpha-3, so every country name was stuck in English for want
of the join.
Vendored CLDR cldr-core 48.2.2 (Unicode-3.0, 36KB, sha256 and source URL
recorded in library/vendor/cldr/README.md). No npm dependency: a package
would pull the whole supplemental tree and make a shipped data file depend
on an install step, where a vendored copy lets the generator reproduce the
map offline -- which is the point of vendoring rather than merely having a
copy.
generate-iso3-to-alpha2.mjs joins it against the 242 codes in
countries.json and GRADES ITS OWN OUTPUT, writing nothing on failure: 242
coverage, injectivity, two-letter well-formedness, and that each documented
exception is still needed. KOS -> XK is the only exception -- Kosovo has no
ISO 3166-1 assignment, so no refresh will ever supply it, and XK is the
user-assigned code CLDR itself uses in locale ids. It is recorded with its
reason instead of patched into the vendored bytes.
countryName(iso3, locale) falls back localized name -> canonical English
name -> the code. Intl.DisplayNames THROWS on a missing or malformed code
rather than returning null, so the guard is checked before asking; the
probe demonstrates that throw rather than asserting it in a comment. An
unassigned-but-well-formed region returns the input unchanged, so that case
falls back instead of rendering "DE" as a name.
THE RESEARCH SPINE MAP IS NOT TOUCHED. iso3-to-iso2.json is a different
file with a different job -- the 176-country spine that drives the data
fetches -- and expanding it is a Driver decision, not a side effect of
adding country names. The generator cross-checks it and REPORTS
disagreements without rewriting. There are none: CLDR independently agrees
with all 176 values, including the two corrected this session.
Also fixes a duplicate "check:religion-label-not-value" key in
package.json, left by a merge. JSON keeps the last, so one description was
silently dead and check:doc-scripts could not see it; bun's parser warned.
The surviving entry absorbs the only fact the dead one carried, the two
library sites by name.
Driver request: "a toggle or carrot added to the bottom of the region
section that says view country posters, which will let you view country
posters for each of the countries in the regions" — with View-on-map and
Print, "the same reusable code from upg 100 list". This is a third
sanctioned addition alongside the tab strip and the no-selection chooser.
Almost nothing was built. library/components/poster/PosterWall.vue was
already the shared, fully parameterised grid, and it already owned the
card layout, the "Show on map" header button, the PRINT OPTIONS footer
and the client-side raster. regions-list.vue supplies only data and a
toggle — the same division country-poster-wall.vue states in its own
header.
- A "View country posters" toggle at the bottom of every region section,
carrying aria-expanded and aria-controls, using the same caret SVG the
header and footer links already use, rotated when open.
- Opening a region renders that region's countries. Measured: 41 cards
for Africa and all 41 previews LOAD (naturalWidth>0 — a 404 still
yields an <img>, so the load is the real check). No assets were
copied: public/assets/previews already holds 174 country-*.webp and
generate-tree already stages them.
- "Show Chad on the map" reaches the Region Dashboards tab with title
"Chad" and hash "#chad", by mapping PosterWall's CustomEvent listId
back through the country-selected the tabs already exchange.
- India prints its own reason with the exact number from the data; China
renders a real poster. Only India is unsupported — 855 groups and no
sheet, against China's 154 on a 3x4.
Two defects the screenshot caught and no assertion did:
- PosterWall's root is position:absolute;inset:0, because in its own
bundles it IS a pane. Embedded in a region card it painted 1440x1100
over the region's country list. Fixed by parameterising the shared
component rather than overriding its CSS locally: new `embedded` and
`sectionHeads` props, both defaulting to today's behaviour, so
country-posters and key-cities are unchanged by construction. Both
re-checked. Re-measured: root static, 1200px wide, panel below the
grid, no overlap.
- With one unnamed group the wall printed a section head reading the
literal "Other" plus a count duplicating the region card's own
summary. Suppressed by sectionHeads=false.
The dataset moved to library/data/country-posters.json now that it has a
second consumer, one import line changed in country-posters, and
emit-countries.mjs was retargeted so the next generator run cannot
recreate the duplicate.
The three new strings do not exist on DX-life, so there was nothing to
copy and nothing was invented in another language: en only, with the
other seven locales falling back to the key.
Regression: 15 suites green, including region-vs-live 73/73,
country-vs-live 28/28, mobile 44/44 and 26/26, and a new
_probe-region-posters.mjs. check:library-index drifted for real this
time (3 new library files) and is regenerated here.
summarizeRegions() was duplicated in regions-list.vue and
region-dashboards.vue — two copies of the same rollup, so two chances
for the region page and the dashboard to disagree about one number.
Both now import a port of DX-life's config/countries-meta.ts, placed in
library/ because it has two named consumers.
Ported verbatim: slugify's replace chain, FULL_PRAYER_COVERAGE_COUNT,
addToStats's conditions, fitView's constants, lngExtent's largest-gap
walk, WORLD_VIEW, both sort orders. Changed only: TypeScript to JS
(interfaces to JSDoc), and their `import { COUNTRIES } from
'../app/utils/countries'` becomes library/data/countries.json — their
same 242-entry {value,label} array, in their order. toNumber and
emptyStats are exported beyond their surface, and only those two: their
pages need no cross-region total because DX-life has no "all regions"
view, and ours does for the no-selection chooser.
Two things the copies had wrong, both fixed by porting rather than
patching:
- They slugged a country from the API's LOCALIZED label. Theirs slugs
from the canonical English name, deliberately. The live site settled
it: /regions/the-united-states is 200 and /regions/united-states is
404; /regions/the-democratic-republic-of-the-congo is 200 and
/regions/dr-congo is 404. Since the dashboard writes the slug into
the URL hash, our deep links pointed at pages that do not exist
there.
- They dropped centre/zoom/bounds entirely, so our maps derived their
own frame. Theirs computes a fit view per country and per region,
including the antimeridian: Oceania's bounds come out east 187.9,
where a naive max() says 178 and spans the globe backwards.
Also fixed regions-list.vue's formatNumber, still hardcoded en-US after
the same fix landed in region-dashboards.vue, and its region sort, which
used (a.label || 'Other') where theirs compares a.label directly.
Proof: region-vs-live 73/73 and country-vs-live 28/28 UNCHANGED — the
rollup is equivalent. New _probe-countries-meta.mjs is 20/20 and
includes a negative test showing the antimeridian assertion really
discriminates. oceania-and-list, regions-swap, standalone-app,
dashboard, total and search all green. 159 lines of duplication gone.
