A peer is a named reference to another LibrePortal instance. Phase 2 only
implements kind=backup-channel (friendly label over a hostname that shows
up in a shared backup repo); direct-ssh-direct and direct-ssh-via-relay
(Connect's blind-relay) are reserved enum values for Phase 3.
DB schema (db_create_tables.sh):
CREATE TABLE peers (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
name TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
kind TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'backup-channel',
config_json TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT '{}',
status TEXT DEFAULT 'unknown',
last_seen TEXT,
created_at TEXT DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);
+ indexes on name and kind.
config_json is kind-specific so new transports don't need a schema
migration. For backup-channel it carries {"hostname":"","loc_idx":N}.
Bash module (scripts/peer/):
peer_helpers.sh _peerDb, peerSqlEscape, peerValidateName/Kind.
peer_add.sh peerAdd <name> <kind> [k=v ...] → INSERT, refresh
generator. Rejects unimplemented kinds early so users
don't create dead-end peer records.
peer_remove.sh peerRemove <name> → DELETE.
peer_list.sh peerList → JSON array; peerGet, peerNameForHostname
(reverse-lookup for the migrate-tab overlay).
peer_check.sh peerCheckReachable, peerCheckAll. For backup-channel
'reachable' = at least one snapshot from that hostname
visible in (preferred|any enabled) location. Updates
status + last_seen so UI dots render without re-probing.
CLI (scripts/cli/commands/peer/):
libreportal peer list
libreportal peer get <name>
libreportal peer add <name> backup-channel hostname=<host> [loc_idx=<n>]
libreportal peer remove <name>
libreportal peer check [name]
Auto-routed by cli_initialize.sh's category-discovery.
WebUI data generator (scripts/webui/data/generators/peers/webui_peers.sh):
Emits data/peers/generated/peers.json with the peerList output and a
generated_at envelope. Hooked into webuiLibrePortalUpdate alongside the
backup generators.
Frontend:
- New top-level /peers route in spa.js (PeersPage class, peers-content.html).
- 'Peers' nav item in the topbar between Backups and the right-side controls.
- Add-peer modal with friendly-name + kind + hostname + preferred-location
selector (populated from the existing backup-locations data).
- Per-peer card with status dot, last-checked time, Check + Remove buttons.
- Phase 3 kinds appear in the kind dropdown as disabled options so users
can see what's coming.
Source-array wiring:
- generate_arrays.sh auto-created files_peer.sh from the new peer/ dir.
- cli_files.sh + app_files.sh include ${peer_scripts[@]} alphabetically.
- files_webui.sh auto-picked-up the new peers/ generator subfolder.
The migrate-tab friendly-name overlay (use peer names in /backup/migrate
when a peer record exists for a hostname) is intentionally deferred — it's
a 5-line frontend lookup once peers.json is loaded; cleaner to add after
Phase 3 ships its peer-detail view.

Same class of bug as the topbar partial: icon and data-file references were
relative (icons/apps/x.svg, data/apps/...), so on deep path routes (/app/<name>,
/admin/config/x) the browser resolved them against the route dir and the SPA
catch-all served index.html with HTTP 200 instead of 404 — broken images and
silently-wrong JSON.
Make every reference absolute (anchored on the quote/backtick so already-absolute
/icons paths are untouched):
- JS: all icons/ and data/ literals + templates across components/utils/system
- html/topbar.html: logo <img>
- generators: webui_config.sh and webui_create_app_categories.sh now emit
/icons/... into apps.json / apps-categories.json (regenerated on install)
- updated the two icon-path comments to match

Path-based routes (e.g. /app/<name>) made the relative fetch('html/topbar.html')
resolve to /app/html/topbar.html. The SPA catch-all returns index.html with HTTP
200 instead of 404, so response.ok passed and index.html got injected as the
topbar, leaving #nav-app-center absent -> 'Nav element not found' in setActiveNav.
Make the topbar fetch and the loadConfig fetch absolute, and switch the remaining
relative topbar nav hrefs (index/dashboard/tasks .html) to absolute paths so the
SPA click interceptor routes them instead of doing a real browser navigation.

Replace the Admin area's ?= query URLs with clean, hierarchical paths that
mirror the breadcrumb:
/admin -> Overview
/admin/config/<category>-> Config / <category>
/admin/tools/ssh-access -> Tools / SSH Access
New /admin (+ /admin*) SPA route -> handleAdmin, which parses the path via the
shared window.adminPath / window.adminCategoryFromPath helpers and renders
through the existing ConfigManager. Legacy /config, /config?=<x> and /ssh now
redirect into the matching /admin path, so old links/bookmarks keep working
(server already serves index.html for any depth). Sidebar, Admin Overview,
dashboard link and top-nav now build /admin paths; active-nav + config data
loading recognise /admin across spa.js, topbar.js, router.js, data-loader.js.
Scope: Admin area only — /app, /apps, /tasks, /backup keep their existing ?=
URLs.

Rename the Config top-nav to 'Admin' and move SSH Access into its sidebar
under a 'Tools' group, instead of a separate top-level nav item. SSH Access is
rendered by SshPage into the config main pane via a renderConfig('ssh-access')
special case; the sidebar item (config-sidebar.js) routes there. SshPage now
mounts into any container (defaults to #config-section). /ssh redirects to
/config?=ssh-access for old links; the standalone ssh-content.html is removed.
Declutters the top bar and gives system/admin features one home that scales
(updates, users, Connect settings can become sidebar entries later).

New /ssh page (topbar nav + SPA route + SshPage controller + ssh-content.html
+ ssh.css). Reads data/ssh/access.json and lets the admin: paste a public key
to authorize a machine, remove keys, and toggle key-only login — all via
'libreportal ssh ...' tasks through the backend's lockout guards. Reuses the
backup key-card styles for a consistent look. This is the inbound counterpart
to the backup location key card (outbound): same paste-a-key model, opposite
direction.
