* [client] Surface session deadline rejections via SystemEvent and add timer arm debug logs When sessionwatch.Watcher.Update rejects a deadline (pre-epoch, too far in the future, or past the clock-skew tolerance) it silently zeroes the status recorder, leaving the UI with no "expires in" row and no indication of why. Publish a SystemEvent_ERROR on the AUTHENTICATION channel so the rejection appears in the UI event feed and the user knows re-login may be required. Also add Debugf log lines in armTimerLocked so that warning and final-warning timer fire-times are visible in logs without having to add instrumentation after the fact. https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y3bQoNgcVjTD4zDTvv7a8u * [client] Remove verbose arm-timer debug logs from sessionwatch The per-arm Debugf lines added noise on every deadline update. Rejection logging already happens at the call site in engine_authsession.go; the watcher itself needs no extra instrumentation. https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y3bQoNgcVjTD4zDTvv7a8u * [client] Leave userMessage empty on deadline-rejected event; use metadata key Daemon-layer PublishEvent userMessage strings are not localized — the UI reads metadata keys and builds its own locale-aware copy (same pattern as the session-warning events in event.go). Drop the hardcoded English sentence from the deadline-rejected event and instead surface the rejection reason via a new MetaSessionDeadlineRejected metadata key so the UI can detect and localize it. https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y3bQoNgcVjTD4zDTvv7a8u * [client] Revert silent deadline-rejected event; restore userMessage MetaSessionDeadlineRejected had no UI consumer: the tray only does metadata-driven localisation for MetaSessionWarning events; all other SystemEvents display userMessage directly (tray_events.go). Leaving userMessage empty made the rejection invisible to the user. Restore the English userMessage so the generic event path shows something, and remove the unused MetaSessionDeadlineRejected constant. https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y3bQoNgcVjTD4zDTvv7a8u * [client] Localize session deadline rejected notification via metadata key Follow the same pattern as session-warning events: the daemon emits an empty userMessage and puts the signal in a typed metadata key (MetaSessionDeadlineRejected); the UI tray detects the key and builds a locale-aware OS notification from i18n strings. Changes: - sessionwatch/event.go: add MetaSessionDeadlineRejected constant - engine_authsession.go: empty userMessage, use the new metadata key - ui/authsession/warning.go: re-export MetaDeadlineRejected for UI consumers - ui/tray_events.go: gate on isDeadlineRejected alongside isSessionWarning; new branch calls t.notify with localized title/body - i18n locales (en/de/hu): add notify.sessionDeadlineRejected.{title,body} https://claude.ai/code/session_01Y3bQoNgcVjTD4zDTvv7a8u --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
NetBird desktop UI (Wails3 + React)
Replaces client/ui (Fyne). One binary on Windows / macOS / Linux,
talks to the NetBird daemon over gRPC, renders a React frontend in a
WebView.
Prerequisites
- Go ≥ 1.25, Node ≥ 20, pnpm (
corepack enable && corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate) wails3CLI:go install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/cmd/wails3@latesttask:go install github.com/go-task/task/v3/cmd/task@latest- A running NetBird daemon (default:
unix:///var/run/netbird.sock, Windowstcp://127.0.0.1:41731) - Linux only:
libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev,libgtk-3-dev,libayatana-appindicator3-dev
Develop without rebuilding
cd client/ui
task dev
task dev runs Vite (port 9245) + the Go binary + a *.go watcher.
Frontend edits hot-reload instantly. Go edits trigger a rebuild and
relaunch. Pass daemon flags after --:
task dev -- --daemon-addr=tcp://127.0.0.1:41731
For pure UI work (no native window, fastest loop):
cd frontend && pnpm dev
Production build
task build
Output in bin/. Frontend assets are embedded into the binary.
Cross-compile Windows from Linux
Install the mingw-w64 toolchain once:
sudo apt install gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64 # Debian/Ubuntu
sudo dnf install mingw64-gcc # Fedora
sudo pacman -S mingw-w64-gcc # Arch
Then:
CGO_ENABLED=1 task windows:build
Produces bin/netbird-ui.exe. macOS cross-compile from Linux is not
supported (signing and notarization need a real Mac).
Windows console build (logs in the terminal)
Default windows:build links the binary as a Windows GUI app, which
detaches from the launching console — logrus output, fmt.Println,
and panics go nowhere visible. To debug tray/event/daemon issues:
CGO_ENABLED=1 task windows:build:console
Produces bin/netbird-ui-console.exe. Run it from cmd.exe /
PowerShell / Windows Terminal and stdout/stderr land in that
terminal. Same flag works on a native Windows build (drop the
CGO_ENABLED=1 if your toolchain already has it set).
Regenerating bindings
When a Go service signature changes:
wails3 generate bindings
task dev does this automatically on *.go save.
Tray icons
Source SVGs live in assets/svg/ (state.svg + state-macos.svg). After editing
any SVG, rasterize to the PNGs the Go side embeds:
task common:generate:tray:icons
Requires Inkscape. Commit the resulting assets/*.png files alongside the
SVG change so CI doesn't need Inkscape installed.
