Summary

This PR implements a heartbeat polling back-off mechanism to handle consecutive 401 unauthorized errors, as requested in issue #534.

Changes Made

  • Enhanced useHeartbeat hook (src/components/production-line/use-heartbeat.ts):
    • Track consecutive 401 unauthorized errors during heartbeat polling
    • Stop polling after 10 consecutive 401 errors to prevent server spam
    • Automatically resume polling when sessionId changes (after reauthentication)
    • Add detailed logging for 401 errors and back-off state transitions
    • Reset 401 counter on successful heartbeats or non-401 errors
    • Provide manual resume function for advanced use cases

Implementation Details

  • Error Detection: Checks for "Response Code: 401" in error messages
  • Configurable Threshold: MAX_CONSECUTIVE_401_ERRORS = 10 (easily adjustable)
  • State Management: Uses React refs to persist state across re-renders
  • Automatic Recovery: Polling resumes when sessionId changes (typical after reauthentication)
  • Enhanced Logging: Clear error messages showing progress (e.g., "Heartbeat 401 error (3/10)")

Test Plan

  • Verify heartbeat continues normally under good conditions
  • Simulate 401 errors and confirm polling stops after 10 consecutive failures
  • Test that polling resumes after sessionId changes
  • Verify non-401 errors don't trigger back-off behavior
  • Check logging output for clarity and usefulness

Behavior

  • ✅ Heartbeat polling continues every 10 seconds as before
  • ✅ 401 errors are logged with current count (e.g., "Heartbeat 401 error (3/10)")
  • ✅ After 10 consecutive 401 errors, polling stops with clear message
  • ✅ Polling automatically resumes when sessionId changes
  • ✅ Non-401 errors reset the 401 counter and continue polling
  • ✅ Successful heartbeats reset the 401 counter

Fixes #534

- Add 401 back-off logic to production line polling (use-line-polling.ts)
- Add 401 back-off logic to production list polling (use-fetch-production-list.ts)
- Consistent behavior across all polling: stop after 10 consecutive 401 errors
- Enhanced logging for all polling mechanisms
- Automatic recovery when polling conditions reset

This ensures comprehensive protection against 401 spam across the entire application.

🔄 Expanded Scope - Added Comprehensive 401 Back-off Protection

I've extended this PR to implement 401 back-off logic across all polling mechanisms in the application:

Additional Files Modified:

  1. src/components/production-line/use-line-polling.ts - Production line polling (every 1s)
  2. src/components/landing-page/use-fetch-production-list.ts - Production list polling (every 10s)

Complete Coverage:

  • Heartbeat polling (every 10s) - ✅ Already implemented
  • Production line polling (every 1s) - 🆕 Now implemented
  • Production list polling (every 10s) - 🆕 Now implemented

Consistent Behavior Across All Polling:

  • Track consecutive 401 unauthorized errors separately from other errors
  • Stop polling after 10 consecutive 401 errors with clear logging
  • Automatically resume when polling conditions reset
  • Enhanced error logging: "[Type] polling 401 error (3/10): [error message]"

This provides comprehensive protection against 401 spam across the entire application, not just heartbeat polling.

Updated Test Plan:

  • Test heartbeat 401 back-off (sessionId-based recovery)
  • Test production line 401 back-off (joinProductionOptions change recovery)
  • Test production list 401 back-off (reloadProductionList/doInitialLoad recovery)
  • Verify all polling mechanisms log 401 errors consistently
  • Confirm non-401 errors don't trigger back-off in any polling mechanism
