Container makes its data directory usable itself (closes #42)
sneak's standing rule: the container makes its data directory usable itself, with no step on the host. entrypoint.sh now creates /var/lib/berlin.sneak.app.routewatch if it is missing and stops the start when any step fails (set -euo pipefail); before, a failed cd went on to change the ownership of whatever directory the script was in, and a failed chown still started the daemon. Taking ownership of the directory and switching to the routewatch user through setpriv are unchanged. The README's upaas volume line now says only which path to mount.

The empty-directory and other-uid cases were run by hand on the built image with upaas-style bind mounts, not added as an automated test.

# Workflow
* branch (from `main`)
* do the work in Next Step
* move Next Step to the top of Completed Steps
* move the top item of Future Steps into Next Step
* commit (`TODO.md` changes in the same commit as the work)
* merge to `main` if the branch is not protected, otherwise open a PR
* push
# Status
pre-1.0. No git tags. The Docker build runs the format check, the linter
and the tests, and the Gitea workflow runs that build on every push. The
image sets memory ceilings for a 5 GiB container (README "Memory") and the
README says how to run it under upaas (README "Running under upaas"). A
35-hour run of `3898daa` on the live feed peaked at about 1 GiB, without a
container memory limit.
# Next Step
`next` waits for sneak to merge it to `main` through
https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/routewatch/pulls/6. After that, setting
routewatch up under upaas on fsn1app1 and deploying it are his
(https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/routewatch/issues/31), and so is the run under a
real 5 GiB limit (https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/routewatch/issues/3).
The other open issue is https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/routewatch/issues/30.
# Completed Steps
- 2026-09-29: the entrypoint creates the data directory if it is missing and
stops the start if a step fails; README "Running under upaas" no longer
asks for the host directory to be created first (closes #42)
- 2026-09-29: `.dockerignore` keeps `.git`, local build output, local
databases and `.env` out of the Docker build context, and so out of the
source archive in the image (closes #39)
- 2026-09-29: README first line names the MIT license and the author;
the License section now says MIT and links `LICENSE`, and an Author
section was added; this file brought up to date (closes #38)
- 2026-09-29: MIT `LICENSE` (closes #1)
- 2026-09-28: stopping the daemon while the feed is flowing no longer
panics with "send on closed channel": the read loop checks for a stop
just before handing a message to the handler queues, and a second
`Stop` no longer closes the queues again (closes #34)
- 2026-09-28: `docker stop` no longer kills the daemon 2 seconds after the
stop signal: the entrypoint switches to the `routewatch` user with
`setpriv` instead of `runuser`, so the daemon receives the signal itself
and gets the whole wait `docker stop` allows, up to its own 60-second
limit (closes #33)
- 2026-09-28: ready to run under upaas: a set but invalid `PORT`,
`XDG_DATA_HOME` or `MALLOC_ARENA_MAX` stops the start, the health
check follows `PORT`, README "Running under upaas" section (closes
#31)
- 2026-09-22: realtime in-memory database statistics: counts seeded at
startup and adjusted on every write, oldest/newest route timestamps via
index-end lookups; `/api/v1/stats` no longer scans the tables (closes
#27)
- 2026-09-21: batch writes take the write lock when their transaction
begins (`_txlock=immediate`), so they wait out a WAL checkpoint instead
of failing with "database is locked" (closes #25)
- 2026-09-21: `MALLOC_ARENA_MAX=2` in the image caps glibc malloc arenas,
so memory outside the Go runtime no longer grows with the core count
(closes #23)
- 2026-09-21: `GOMEMLIMIT=1536MiB` in the image; README Memory section
with the memory budget and the 5 GiB container limit (closes #13)
- 2026-09-21: the four handler queues hold at most 20,000 messages each,
down from 100,000 (closes #11)
- 2026-09-21: two goroutine leaks fixed: the stats handlers after a
timeout and the streamer's tickers on every reconnect (closes #12)
- 2026-09-21: parsed RIS messages no longer keep the unused `Community`
and `Raw` fields (closes #9)
- 2026-09-21: `.editorconfig`, and a Gitea workflow that runs
`script/cibuild` on every push (closes #14)
- 2026-09-21: the peering handler's AS-path map holds at most 500,000
paths and is swapped for an empty one every 30 seconds instead of copied
(closes #10)
- 2026-09-21: SQLite memory bounded across the whole connection pool: a
64 MiB page cache on each connection, 1 GiB soft and 1.5 GiB hard heap
limits (closes #8)
- 2026-09-21: the Docker build runs the format check, the linter and the
tests, linting in a separate stage on a golangci-lint image pinned by
digest (closes #5)
- 2026-09-21: `make test` skips the live-network feed test (`-short`), so
`make check` no longer depends on the network (closes #2)
- 2026-07-07 Adopted scripts-to-rule-them-all: `script/` entrypoints,
Makefile shims, README Entrypoints section
- 2026-02-22: repo policy compliance: required policy files, .gitignore
update, Makefile fmt-check/check/docker/hooks targets, gofmt pass
(repo-policies-compliance, unmerged)
- 2026-01-01: WAL checkpointing: periodic (5s), on startup with logging,
TRUNCATE mode; fixed slow queries
- 2025-12-31: status page: navbar, home page with search, oldest/newest
route timestamps, NULL handling in WHOIS stats; container runs as
routewatch user with proper state dir
- 2025-12-30: structured HTTP request logging, increased timeouts,
CIDR prefix URL routing fixes, status page metrics and footer
- 2025-12-29: Dockerfile multi-stage build with source archive; SQLite
incremental vacuum for non-blocking space reclamation
- 2025-07-27: initial RouteWatch BGP stream monitor
# Future Steps
- Production memory under 5 GiB: whether to test under a real 5 GiB
container limit on fsn1app1 is open for sneak
(https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/routewatch/issues/3)
- `/api/v1/stats` answered HTTP 500 after 35 hours on the live feed, seen
on `3898daa`, which predates the 2026-09-22 in-memory statistics
(https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/routewatch/issues/30)
