- Added `waveform_key` and `event_timestamp` columns to `CachedEvent` and `CachedWaveform` for integrity verification.
- Implemented logic to flush the cache when a mismatch in (waveform_key, event_timestamp) is detected during event and waveform updates.
- Enhanced `set_events` and `set_waveform` methods to check for mismatches and trigger cache eviction as necessary.
- Introduced a new `LiveCache` class to manage in-memory caching of live device data, separating it from the server logic for better testability.
- Added tests to verify the correctness of cache invalidation logic, particularly for post-erase key reuse scenarios.
- Updated web application to include a "Force refresh" toggle, allowing users to bypass the cache and re-fetch data from the device.
Introduces sfm/cache.py — a SQLite-backed cache (via SQLAlchemy) that
sits between the SFM REST endpoints and the device, eliminating redundant
cellular downloads for data that doesn't change.
Cache behaviour by data type:
- Device info / compliance config: cached until a config write occurs;
POST /device/config now calls mark_config_dirty() to force a fresh read
on the next /device/info call.
- Event headers + peak values: cached permanently (append-only). On
subsequent calls to /device/events, the server does a fast count_events()
(~2s) instead of a full download (~10-30s); only new events are fetched
from the device and merged into the cache.
- Full waveforms (raw ADC samples): cached permanently — immutable once
recorded. Repeated requests for the same waveform return instantly with
zero device contact.
- Monitor status (battery, memory, is_monitoring): 30-second TTL; auto-
invalidated on start/stop monitoring commands.
All endpoints gain a ?force=true param to bypass the cache when needed.
New endpoints: GET /cache/stats, DELETE /cache/device.
Adds requirements.txt listing fastapi, uvicorn, sqlalchemy, pyserial.
