Subject: [PATCH 06/17] Web based track editor (#1206)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* add new folder with files

* Add TrackSpeedPlanner as regular folder

* Updated for Tornado

* Cleaned up to remove Node.js and Docker

* Fixed some bugs

CSVs now load properly without a header and file dialog has option to load from either Pi or local/laptop

* Deleting unneeded files

* Removed unnecessary files

* Fixed local save

* Make sure that exiting the program doesn't stop the Tornado server

* Got rid of unnecessary shell script

* Fix routing issue and create comprehensive documentation (#1210)

* Fix routing issue and create comprehensive documentation

- Fixed MainHandler routing conflict that prevented print statements from showing
- Replaced inaccurate documentation files with single comprehensive README.md
- Removed obsolete files (package.json, start.sh, .gitignore)
- Changed server binding to localhost for security
- Added debug print statement to MainHandler for troubleshooting

The new README accurately documents the actual functionality including:
- Interactive canvas-based path visualization with speed color coding
- Dual file loading (Pi directory browser + upload)
- Individual point speed editing with real-time visual feedback
- Proper API endpoints and CSV format specifications
- macOS port conflict troubleshooting

+# Donkey Car Path Data Visualizer & Editor
+
+A web-based tool for visualizing and editing Donkey Car path data CSV files. This application provides an intuitive interface to load, visualize, and modify speed values for autonomous vehicle path planning.
+
+## Features
+
+### 🎯 **Interactive Path Visualization**
+- Canvas-based path display with automatic scaling and centering
+- Color-coded speed visualization (red = slow, green = fast)
+- Click-to-select path points with visual feedback
+- Real-time updates as you modify speed values
+
+### 📁 **Flexible File Operations**
+- **Pi Directory Access**: Browse and load CSV files directly from the server directory
+- **Upload from Browser**: Drag-and-drop or click to upload CSV files from your computer
+- **Dual Save Options**: 
+  - Save back to Pi directory (for server files)
+  - Download to local machine (for uploaded files)
+
+### ⚡ **Speed Editing**
+- Individual speed controls for each path point
+- Speed range: 0.1 to 1.0 in 0.1 increments
+- Auto-scroll to selected point's controls
+- Instant visual feedback on canvas
+
+### 📱 **Responsive Design**
+- Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices
+- Adaptive layout that adjusts to screen size
+- Touch-friendly controls for mobile editing
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Start the Server
+```bash
+# Default port (note: avoid port 5000 on macOS due to AirPlay conflict)
+python trackeditor.py --port=8080
+
+# With debug mode
+python trackeditor.py --port=8080 --debug
+```
+
+### 2. Access the Application
+Open your browser and navigate to:
+- **Local**: http://localhost:8080
+- **Network**: http://[your-ip]:8080
+
+### 3. Load Path Data
+Choose one of these methods:
+- **From Pi Directory**: Use the dropdown to select existing CSV files
+- **Upload File**: Drag & drop or click the upload area
+
+### 4. Edit and Save
+- Click on path points to select them
+- Adjust speed values using the right panel controls
+- Save your changes back to the Pi or download locally
+
+## Server Configuration
+
+### Command Line Options
+```bash
+python trackeditor.py --help
+```
+
+Available options:
+- `--port=PORT`: Server port (default: 5000, recommend 8080 on macOS)
+- `--debug`: Enable debug mode with detailed logging
+
+### API Endpoints
+- `GET /`: Main application interface
+- `GET /api/health`: Server health check
+- `GET /api/files`: List CSV files in server directory
+- `POST /api/upload`: Upload CSV file from browser
+- `POST /api/loadfile`: Load CSV file from server directory
+- `POST /api/save`: Save modifications back to server
+- `POST /api/export`: Download modified CSV file
+- `POST /api/shutdown`: Graceful server shutdown
+
+## CSV File Format
+
+The application supports CSV files with the following formats:
+
+### With Headers (Recommended)
+```csv
+x,y,speed
+10.5,20.3,0.8
+11.2,21.0,0.7
+12.1,22.5,0.9
+```
+
+### Alternative Headers
+Also supports: `pos_x,pos_y,throttle` and `X,Y,Speed`
+
+### Without Headers
+```csv
+10.5,20.3,0.8
+11.2,21.0,0.7
+12.1,22.5,0.9
+```
+
+**Notes:**
+- Speed values are automatically clamped to 0.1-1.0 range
+- Missing speed values default to 0.5
+- Invalid rows are skipped with console warnings
+
+## File Structure
+
+```
+TrackSpeedPlanner/
+├── trackeditor.py          # Main Tornado web server
+├── static/
+│   └── index.html         # Complete web interface (HTML/CSS/JS)
+├── test_path.csv          # Sample CSV file
+└── attached_assets/       # Additional CSV files
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- **Python 3.6+**
+- **Tornado web framework**
+You should run this out of your donkey environment which has python=3.11 with 
+tornado installed. The above is only relevant when running out of another 
+environment. Please see next section for that.
+
+### Installation
+```bash
+# Install Tornado if not available
+pip install tornado
+
+# Or with conda
+conda install tornado
+```
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### Visualization Engine
+- **Canvas Size**: 800x600 pixels (responsive)
+- **Auto-scaling**: Automatically fits path data to canvas
+- **Color Coding**: RGB interpolation based on speed values
+- **Selection Radius**: 15-pixel click detection around points
+
+### Performance
+- **Raspberry Pi Zero/1**: Suitable for small to medium paths
+- **Raspberry Pi 2/3**: Good performance for typical donkey car paths  
+- **Raspberry Pi 4+**: Excellent performance with large datasets
+- **Desktop/Laptop**: Handles very large path files efficiently
+
+### Browser Compatibility
+- Modern browsers with HTML5 Canvas support
+- Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge
+- Mobile browsers on iOS and Android
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Server Won't Start
+```bash
+# Check Python version
+python --version  # Should be 3.6+
+
+# Install Tornado
+pip install tornado
+
+# Check port availability (especially on macOS)
+lsof -i :5000  # If in use, try different port
+python trackeditor.py --port=8080
+```
+
+### Can't Access from Network
+```bash
+# Check your IP address
+hostname -I        # Linux/Pi
+ipconfig          # Windows  
+ifconfig          # macOS
+
+# Test locally first
+curl http://localhost:8080/api/health
+```
+
+### File Upload Issues
+- Ensure files have `.csv` extension
+- Check file format matches expected CSV structure
+- Large files may take time to process on slower hardware
+
+### Port 5000 Conflicts (macOS)
+macOS uses port 5000 for AirPlay. Use an alternative port:
+```bash
+python trackeditor.py --port=8080
+```
+
+## Integration with Donkey Car
+
+This tool is designed to work with Donkey Car path planning:
+
+1. **Record Paths**: Use Donkey Car to record driving paths
+2. **Edit Speeds**: Load and modify speed profiles using this tool
+3. **Deploy**: Save edited paths back to your Donkey Car for autonomous driving
+
+## Development
+
+### Server Development
+- Edit `trackeditor.py` for backend changes
+- Supports hot reload in debug mode: `--debug`
+
+### Frontend Development  
+- Edit `static/index.html` for UI changes
+- Contains all HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in a single file
+- Refresh browser to see changes
+
+### Adding Features
+The application uses a RESTful API design. To add new functionality:
+1. Create new handler class in `trackeditor.py`
+2. Add route to `make_app()` function
+3. Implement frontend calls in `static/index.html`
+
+## License
+
+This tool is part of the Donkey Car project and follows the same open-source principles.

Subject: [PATCH 07/17] Fix MQTT telemetry test reliability by replacing
 network dependency with mocks
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The original test relied on external MQTT broker connection which caused intermittent failures. This change:
- Replaces real MQTT client with mocked instances to eliminate network dependency
- Adds comprehensive test coverage for both success and error scenarios
- Removes timing-dependent sleep calls and retry logic that caused flakiness
- Ensures consistent test execution across all environments

Subject: [PATCH 09/17] Fix WebSocket test race conditions with async polling
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Replace fixed sleep() calls with proper async polling to eliminate race conditions
in WebSocket calibration tests. The tests were failing on macOS CI due to
insufficient wait time for WebSocket message processing.

Changes:
- Add wait_for_attribute_value() helper method with 5-second timeout
- Replace all sleep(SLEEP) calls with async polling in 7 tests
- Remove unused imports (tornado.ioloop, time.sleep, SLEEP constant)
- Add proper timeout error messages for better debugging

Fixes intermittent test failures on slower CI environments while maintaining
fast execution on local machines.
