description	Build, launch and drive MeshcomWebDesk locally with injected UDP test data to verify changes end-to-end.

Verify MeshcomWebDesk changes

Build & launch (isolated — does not touch the real node or data)

dotnet build MeshcomWebDesk/MeshcomWebDesk.csproj

# Isolated instance: local UDP loopback, throwaway data/log dirs.
# NOTE: Kestrel ignores the Urls env var (appsettings wins) → app listens on http://0.0.0.0:5162.
$env:Meshcom__ListenIp="127.0.0.1"; $env:Meshcom__ListenPort="17999"
$env:Meshcom__DeviceIp="127.0.0.1"; $env:Meshcom__DevicePort="17998"
$env:Meshcom__DataPath="<tempdir>\data"; $env:Meshcom__LogPath="<tempdir>\logs"
dotnet run --project MeshcomWebDesk --no-build

A SocketException (10054) right after start is the ICMP echo of the registration packet sent into the void — harmless, the service keeps running.

Inject test stations (simulates a MeshCom node)

Send UDP JSON packets to 127.0.0.1:17999. Formats (see MeshcomUdpService.ParseMessage):

pos    {"type":"pos","src":"DL1AAA-1","lat":51.05,"lat_dir":"N","long":9.55,"long_dir":"E","rssi":-108,"snr":-4.0}
msg    {"type":"msg","src":"DL2BBB-2","dst":"*","msg":"Hello","rssi":-95,"snr":6.5}
tele   {"type":"tele","src":"DL1AAA-1","temp1":21.5,"hum":60,"qnh":1013.2}

• Relayed packet: comma path in src → "src":"ORIGIN-1,RELAY-12" (index 0 = origin).
• Own position: pos with src == Meshcom:MyCallsign (appsettings: DH1FR-2).
• alt is in feet (APRS convention), converted to metres.
• A msg (not pos/tele) without relay path sets DirectLinkConfirmed → direct map line.
• lat:0, lon:0 = no GPS fix (ignored).

Drive the UI

Playwright (chromium) against http://127.0.0.1:5162. Useful hooks on /map:

• window.meshcomMap.jumpToCallsign('DL1AAA-1') — opens a marker popup (search path); clicking marker labels directly fails (pointer-events: none on .aprs-wrap).
• Relay segments: document.querySelectorAll('.leaflet-overlay-pane path') (each segment = halo + coloured line, so 2 paths per segment).
• Direction arrows: .relay-arrow; marker dots/labels: .aprs-dot / .aprs-label.
• Wait ~4 s after load: Blazor circuit + 400 ms marker debounce.

Gotcha: the map page is @rendermode InteractiveServer — a plain HTTP GET only proves routing; JS behaviour needs the browser.
