feat: Add Beacon - integrated favorites + map tracking UI by rpuneet · Pull Request #1 · rpuneet/beacon

rpuneet · 2026-01-26T09:29:15Z

Summary

New BeaconView with integrated favorites list and map view
Periodic location announcements to mutual favorites (60s interval)
Improved map performance with cached annotations
Green color scheme and "bitchat/Beacon" branding
Fixed duplicate locations bug with normalized storage keys

Features

LocationAnnounce message type for passive location broadcasts (devices broadcast every 60s)
BeaconMapPin with UWB/BLE/GPS tracking method indicators
BeaconFavoriteRow with Track (zoom to person) and Message (open DM) actions
MapPingWave animation - 8 waves, radar-style effect
Direct chat opening from Beacon favorites list

Technical Changes

Added locationAnnounce = 0x30 to NoisePayloadType
Added LocationAnnounce struct with binary encoding
PeerLocation initializer from LocationAnnounce
TrackingService: startLocationAnnouncements(), handleLocationAnnounce()
BLEService: sendLocationAnnounce(), receive handler
NostrTransport: sendLocationAnnounce() for relay delivery
Normalized storage keys to prevent duplicate peer entries

Test plan

Open Beacon view - should show map with favorites list
Tap favorites star - Beacon should expand with map
Verify location broadcasts every 60 seconds (check logs)
Tap Track button - map should zoom to that person
Tap Message button - should open private chat
Verify map pins show correct tracking method (UWB/BLE/GPS)
Test via Nostr relay - disconnect BLE, locations should update via relay

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

- Add requestFreshLocation() method to LocationStateManager that triggers one-shot GPS request with callback and 3-second timeout - Update handleTrackRequest in BLEService to use new location request method instead of simple 2-second delay - Add notification posting when location updates for callback support - Enhance debug logging throughout tracking flow with exact coordinates - Add UWB PeerID normalization for consistent dictionary lookups - Include tracking UI components: GroupTrackingView, TrackingView, TrackingMapView, HotColdIndicator, DirectionalArrow - Add TrackingService for coordinating peer location tracking - Add UWBTrackingManager for Ultra-Wideband precision tracking - Add SignalFusion for combining GPS, UWB, and BLE distance estimates Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

isnt isGeoDM same as isPrivateChat?

mostly debug logs let's revert changes here as well.
