## Lessons
|
||||
|
||||
### Bind chat attachments to a pre-allocated message id, never by matching content [attachments] [chat] [mobile]
|
||||
|
||||
- **Trigger:** caption-less media (videos/images sent with no text) grouped onto the message bubble above and left an empty message below on Android — `ChatMessagesComponent` dispatched `sendMessage` without an id, then a `setTimeout` re-discovered the message by `entry.content === content` (always `''` for attachment-only sends) and called `publishAttachments` on it.
|
||||
- **Rule:** pre-allocate the message id in the component (`planChatMessageSend` in `chat-message-send.rules.ts`), dispatch it via `MessagesActions.sendMessage({ id, ... })` (effect uses `id ?? uuidv4()`), and bind attachments to that exact id with `publishAttachments(id, files)` — never re-find the message by content/timing.
|
||||
- **Why:** empty content is shared by every attachment-only message, so content matching picks the newest match and races the async create-effect; on Android the create latency exceeds the old 100 ms timer, so the file binds to a stale sibling. The race is invisible on fast desktop browsers, so the deterministic regression proof is the unit test that asserts the dispatched action id equals the attachment-binding id, not an e2e timing game (see the "don't bump E2E timeouts for sync flakes" lesson).
|
||||
- **Example:** `planChatMessageSend(...).attachmentBinding.messageId === plan.action.id` enforced in `chat-message-send.rules.spec.ts`; behavioral guard in `e2e/tests/chat/attachment-only-message-grouping.spec.ts` (proves the id flows component→effect→attachment by requiring each caption-less attachment to render in its own bubble).
|
||||
|
||||
### Attachment file persistence must be platform-agnostic, not Electron-only [attachments] [persistence] [mobile]
|
||||
|
||||
- **Trigger:** `AttachmentStorageService` talked only to `window.electronAPI`, so `canWriteFiles()` returned `false` on Android (Capacitor) and in the browser — no bytes were ever persisted there, and after restart/logout-login the uploader hit "Your original upload could not be found on this device" / "no peer with this file".
