Today’s Updates: Improvements to UX, Debugging, and Stability
What developments have taken place today?
This commit improved user experience by updating a link on a webpage from a numerical ID to a descriptive label (“Lighthouse results”). This enhances clarity and usability for users navigating the application.
A Docker container, remotedaemon-jaeger, was configured with an increased memory limit of 3000 MB when running in detached mode, supporting enhanced tracing capabilities within the system. The changes also introduced a debugging process specifically designed to resolve certificate validation issues on production servers through dedicated logs and admin interface access.
Several enhancements were made to improve debugging tools and processes. A new section was added to the documentation detailing testing procedures for various aspects of the application. The WebsiteDebugRepository was implemented, allowing access to website debug information via a CertificateConsumer. Furthermore, improvements were made to domain name resolution using the golang.org/x/net/publicsuffix library, ensuring accurate and reliable identification of top-level domains. Error handling within the CertificateConsumer’s ProcessData method was refined for clearer logging and correct error propagation.
Finally, the Save function in the WebsiteUrlMetricRepository was updated to utilize separate queries for checking record existence, inserting new records, updating existing ones, and retrieving the final saved metric. This approach incorporates targeted database operations, improves efficiency, and includes robust error handling throughout the process.
These changes collectively improve application stability, enhance debugging workflows, streamline user interactions, and increase overall system reliability by providing more effective tools for troubleshooting and testing.
