Moving one waypoint previously re-fetched all N-1 segments of the route
through /api/route every time, because the server-side computeRoute
recomputes the whole route from scratch. Under rapid edits this piles up
on BRouter's thread pool and wastes BRouter+Planner cycles on segments
the caller already has.
This change keeps a host-local LRU segment cache in the Planner tab,
keyed by (from, to, profile, noGoHash). On each computeRoute:
- build the pair list from the current waypoints
- split into cached vs. missing by looking up each pair key
- if any missing, POST { pairs: missing, … } to the new
/api/route-segments endpoint and populate the cache with its ordered
raw BRouter responses
- merge cache-ordered segments into an EnrichedRoute client-side via
mergeGeoJsonSegments (moved to a pure, isomorphic route-merge.ts)
- write to yjs.routeData exactly as before
Typical drag of one waypoint in a 10-waypoint route drops from 9 BRouter
fetches to 2. A session re-entering a cached arrangement (undo/redo)
short-circuits the server entirely. Profile/no-go changes invalidate all
keys and trigger a full refetch, matching prior behavior.
Yjs stays out of the cache: segments are bulky and CRDT sync of large
blobs hurts more than it helps. The elected host owns the cache; on host
handover the new host pays one full recompute.
Backwards-compat: /api/route is unchanged for external callers (e2e
integration tests, the Journal demo-bot's format=gpx path). Server-side
it now delegates to the shared fetchSegments helper.
