Proposed changes (including videos or screenshots)

  1. Four Main Meteor Methods:
  • liveLocation.start - Initiates live location sharing
  • liveLocation.update - Updates coordinates in real-time
  • liveLocation.stop - Stops location sharing
  • liveLocation.get - Retrieves location data for display
  1. Database Integration:
  • Live location data stored as message attachments with [type: 'live-location']
  • Automatic cleanup system with TTL indexes and periodic cleanup
  • Rate limiting to prevent abuse (3-second minimum interval for updates)
  1. Real-time Updates:
  • Uses [notifyOnMessageChange] for instant UI updates
  • WebSocket integration through Meteor's DDP protocol
  • Client-side service for geolocation management

Review skipped

Review was skipped due to path filters

⛔ Files ignored due to path filters (1)
  • packages/apps-engine/deno-runtime/deno.lock is excluded by !**/*.lock

CodeRabbit blocks several paths by default. You can override this behavior by explicitly including those paths in the path filters. For example, including **/dist/** will override the default block on the dist directory, by removing the pattern from both the lists.

You can disable this status message by setting the reviews.review_status to false in the CodeRabbit configuration file.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 4 (Complex) | ⏱️ ~45 minutes

  • API security & validation: Verify authentication checks, room/user access validation, and parameter sanitization across four new endpoints (start, update, stop, get)
  • Geolocation caching logic: Review multi-stage fallback strategy (getCurrentPosition → watchPosition → getCurrentPosition), coarse-position quantization, and 30s cache validity window
  • Live location lifecycle: Ensure message attachment structure consistency across create/update/stop/get operations and expiration tracking
  • Database indexes: Validate compound indexes, TTL behavior (expireAfterSeconds: 0), partial filter expressions, and unique constraint on active-location-per-user-room
  • Message format compatibility: Confirm client-server message payload structure (map link, coordinates, attachment format) alignment
  • Test coverage: Verify adequacy of mocks and assertions across geolocation retry paths, API throttling, and permission-denied flows

Title Check ✅ Passed The pull request title "feat: static & live location sharing (draft)" directly reflects the primary objectives of the changeset. The PR introduces both static location sharing (via MapView, getGeolocationPosition, and ShareLocationModal) and live location sharing (via MapLibreMap, useBrowserLiveLocation, and API endpoints), along with supporting infrastructure like the OpenStreetMap provider abstraction, cleanup mechanisms, and localization keys. The title is concise, specific, and avoids vague or generic phrasing. The "(draft)" suffix is contextually appropriate given the PR label "do not merge." A teammate scanning the commit history would immediately understand that this PR introduces location sharing capabilities.

30-31: Add OSM attribution for legal compliance

OpenStreetMap usage requires attribution. Display a small attribution line below the image.

-	return <MapViewImage linkUrl={linkUrl} imageUrl={imageUrl} />;
+	return (
+		<>
+			<MapViewImage linkUrl={linkUrl} imageUrl={imageUrl} />
+			<div style={{ fontSize: 10, color: 'var(--rcx-color-secondary-info)', marginTop: 4 }}>

🧹 Nitpick comments (19)
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/mapProvider.ts (2)

44-46: Align zoom defaults between static image and deep link

Static default is 15 while the OSM link hardcodes 16. Pick one to avoid confusing users with different zoom levels across preview vs. deep link. I suggest defaulting both to 16.

-    const zoom = opts?.zoom ?? 15;
+    const zoom = opts?.zoom ?? 16;
...
-    return `https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=${lat}&mlon=${lng}#map=16/${lat}/${lng}`;
+    return `https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=${lat}&mlon=${lng}#map=${16}/${lat}/${lng}`;

20-36: Avoid exposing client keys; prefer server-side proxy or strict key restrictions

These URLs embed API keys directly in the client. If you must expose them, ensure strict domain referrer restrictions and usage quotas. Ideally, proxy static-map requests server-side to hide keys and enable caching.

Also applies to: 38-57

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/getGeolocationPosition.ts (1)

116-125: JSON-serializing GeolocationPosition is not guaranteed portable; store a plain subset

Some browsers return objects with non‑enumerables/getters. Safer to persist a plain serializable subset (coords + timestamp), and reconstruct a position-like object on read.

-function cache(position: GeolocationPosition) {
+function cache(position: GeolocationPosition) {
   try {
-    sessionStorage.setItem(
-      CACHE_KEY,
-      JSON.stringify({ timestamp: Date.now(), position }),
-    );
+    const { latitude, longitude, accuracy, altitude, altitudeAccuracy, heading, speed } = position.coords;
+    sessionStorage.setItem(
+      CACHE_KEY,
+      JSON.stringify({
+        timestamp: Date.now(),
+        coords: { latitude, longitude, accuracy, altitude, altitudeAccuracy, heading, speed },
+      }),
+    );
   } catch {
     // ignore
   }
 }
 
-function readCached():
-  | { timestamp: number; position: GeolocationPosition }
-  | null {
+function readCached():
+  | { timestamp: number; position: GeolocationPosition }
+  | null {
   try {
     const raw = sessionStorage.getItem(CACHE_KEY);
     if (!raw) return null;
-    return JSON.parse(raw);
+    const parsed = JSON.parse(raw) as {
+      timestamp: number;
+      coords: GeolocationCoordinates;
+    };
+    // Reconstruct a position-like object sufficient for downstream usage
+    const position = {
+      coords: parsed.coords,
+      timestamp: parsed.timestamp,
+    } as GeolocationPosition;
+    return { timestamp: parsed.timestamp, position };

     return null;
   }
 }

Also applies to: 127-137

apps/meteor/client/components/message/content/location/MapView.tsx (1)

22-29: Redundant null-check on linkUrl

linkUrl is always a non-empty string here. You can drop the if (!linkUrl) guard.

.gitpod.yml (1)

7-9: Speed up installs and ensure lockfile fidelity

Consider using frozen lockfile and leveraging Gitpod cache layers.

-tasks:
-  - init: yarn install && yarn run build
+tasks:
+  - init: yarn install --frozen-lockfile && yarn run build
     command: yarn run dev
apps/meteor/client/views/room/composer/messageBox/MessageBoxActionsToolbar/hooks/useShareLocationAction.tsx (1)

17-21: Update provider-dependent logic: stop tying availability to Google key only

canGetGeolocation still depends on MapView_GMapsAPIKey. If OSM/LocationIQ is selected, the check should consider that key as well, or not require a key if you’re okay with link-only sharing.

-	const canGetGeolocation = isMapViewEnabled && isGeolocationCurrentPositionSupported && googleMapsApiKey && googleMapsApiKey.length;
+	const locationIQKey = useSetting('MapView_LocationIQ_APIKey', '');
+	const canGetGeolocation =
+		isMapViewEnabled &&
+		isGeolocationCurrentPositionSupported &&
+		(Boolean(googleMapsApiKey && googleMapsApiKey.length) || Boolean(locationIQKey && locationIQKey.length));
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/ShareLocationModal.tsx (4)

35-41: Guard localStorage access and handle SSR/blocked storage.

Accessing localStorage unguarded can throw in Safari private mode/blocked storage or SSR. Wrap in try/catch and default safely.

-  const [provider, setProvider] = useState<MapProviderName>(() => {
-    const saved = localStorage.getItem('mapProvider') as MapProviderName | null;
-    return saved ?? 'openstreetmap';
-  });
+  const [provider, setProvider] = useState<MapProviderName>(() => {
+    try {
+      const saved = typeof window !== 'undefined' ? (window.localStorage.getItem('mapProvider') as MapProviderName | null) : null;
+      return saved ?? 'openstreetmap';
+    } catch {
+      return 'openstreetmap';
+    }
+  });
...
-  useEffect(() => {
-    localStorage.setItem('mapProvider', provider);
-  }, [provider]);
+  useEffect(() => {
+    try {
+      window.localStorage.setItem('mapProvider', provider);
+    } catch {
+      /* noop */
+    }
+  }, [provider]);

99-136: Localize user-facing strings in the Provider stage.

Hardcoded English strings bypass i18n and break l10n. Wrap title, button labels, and help text with t().

-        title="Choose map provider"
+        title={t('Choose_map_provider')}
...
-        confirmText="Continue"
+        confirmText={t('Continue')}
...
-            OpenStreetMap
+            {t('OpenStreetMap')}
...
-            Google
+            {t('Google')}
...
-          <div style={{ fontSize: 12, color: '#666' }}>
-            You can change this later. Your choice is saved for live sharing too.
-          </div>
+          <div style={{ fontSize: 12, color: '#666' }}>
+            {t('Map_provider_choice_persist_help')}
+          </div>

142-156: Localize action labels in the Choose stage.

“Live Location”, “Current Location”, and the helper sentence should use t().

-        cancelText="Live Location"
+        cancelText={t('Live_Location')}
...
-        confirmText="Current Location"
+        confirmText={t('Current_Location')}
...
-        Choose to share your current location once or start live location sharing.
+        {t('Choose_static_or_live_location_help')}

277-279: Localize provider label.

Wrap “Provider: …” with t() for consistency.

-          Provider: {provider === 'google' ? 'Google Maps' : 'OpenStreetMap'}
+          {t('Provider')}: {provider === 'google' ? t('Google_Maps') : t('OpenStreetMap')}
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/MapView.tsx (3)

3-3: Use a direct relative import path.

'../ShareLocation/mapProvider' from within the same directory is odd. Prefer './mapProvider' for clarity.

-import type { MapProviderName, MapProvider } from '../ShareLocation/mapProvider';
+import type { MapProviderName, MapProvider } from './mapProvider';

51-59: Reduce bandwidth and referrer leakage on external images.

Add loading="lazy" and a conservative referrerPolicy to avoid sending chat URLs as referrers to third parties.

-          <img
+          <img
             src={staticUrl}
             alt="Map preview"
-            style={{ display: 'block', width: '100%', height: 'auto' }}
+            loading="lazy"
+            referrerPolicy="no-referrer"
+            style={{ display: 'block', width: '100%', height: 'auto' }}
           />

64-85: Localize fallback strings.

“Map preview unavailable” should use i18n.

-      aria-label="Map preview unavailable"
-      title="Map preview unavailable"
+      aria-label={/* t('Map_preview_unavailable') */ 'Map preview unavailable'}
+      title={/* t('Map_preview_unavailable') */ 'Map preview unavailable'}

Note: If this component is used outside translation context, consider passing the label as a prop.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/useLiveLocationStopListener.ts (1)

74-85: Global window pollution for control hooks.

Exporting stopLiveLocationSharing on window is fragile. Consider event emitters or a context instead.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/LiveLocationModal.tsx (3)

367-380: i18n: localize UI strings across the live modal.

Most labels (“Start Live Sharing”, “Stop Sharing”, status texts, errors, tooltips, titles) are hardcoded. Wrap with t() for localization.

Also applies to: 522-649


184-196: High update/battery overhead risk.

You start geolocation watch, plus a polling heartbeat in the service, plus an additional sharing interval here. This stacks timers and GPS reads, increasing battery drain and bandwidth (static maps with cache-busting). Prefer one source (watchPosition) with shouldPushUpdate gating.

Also applies to: 306-313, 355-362


369-380: Avoid cache-busting on every render unless necessary.

Appending ts=Date.now() disables caching. If the preview only needs to update on position change, memoize and reuse the same URL between updates.

Also applies to: 589-600

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/liveLocationService.ts (2)

25-70: Dev mock overrides global geolocation; gate more safely.

Overwriting navigator.geolocation.* globally can surprise other code and leak into tests if env is mis-configured. Prefer a test-only mock pluggable into the service, or guard behind an explicit feature flag and avoid mutating globals.

-  private setupDevelopmentMock() {
-    if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') {
+  private setupDevelopmentMock() {
+    if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development' && (window as any).__RC_ENABLE_GEO_MOCK__) {
       // ...
     }
   }

137-169: Duplicate GPS reads (watch + polling + sharing interval).

Service already sets up both a watch and a poll heartbeat; adding a separate sharing interval doubles work. Consolidate to watchPosition + throttled updates via shouldPushUpdate.

Also applies to: 171-192

105-114: Transient error detection looks good

Covers POSITION_UNAVAILABLE and common Apple CoreLocation messages. LGTM.

If you see other device-specific transient strings in telemetry, consider adding them here or gating via a feature flag.

MapLibre GL JS implementation guide

💡 Result:

Quick MapLibre GL JS implementation guide — minimal steps, best practices, and links.

  1. Install or include the library
  • npm: npm install maplibre-gl; import in JS/TS and import CSS. [1]
  • CDN: include UNPKG JS and CSS in . [1]
  1. Basic map initialization
  • Example:
    import maplibregl from 'maplibre-gl';
    import 'maplibre-gl/dist/maplibre-gl.css';
    const map = new maplibregl.Map({
    container: 'map', // element id
    style: 'https://demotiles.maplibre.org/globe.json',
    center: [lng, lat],
    zoom: 2
    });
    [1]
  1. Styles & tile sources
  • Use MapLibre-compatible style JSON (Mapbox Style Spec). You can host your own vector/raster tiles (MapTiler, self-hosted tileserver, etc.) or use public demo tiles. No Mapbox token required unless using Mapbox services. [1][2]
  1. Controls, markers, popups, events
  • Add built-in controls: map.addControl(new maplibregl.NavigationControl()); create markers/popups with Marker/Popup classes; listen to map events (click, move, load). [1]
  1. Layers & data
  • Add GeoJSON or vector sources programmatically: map.addSource(...) and map.addLayer(...). Use style expressions and paint/layout properties as in the Mapbox Style Spec. [1]
  1. Bundlers, TypeScript & compatibility
  • MapLibre is distributed as an ES module; import in bundlers. TypeScript definitions are included. For migration from mapbox-gl, replace mapboxgl → maplibregl and update imports/CSS. v1 branch remains backward-compatible with Mapbox GL JS v1. [2][3]
  1. CSP & web worker notes
  • For strict CSP environments use the CSP bundle (maplibre-gl-csp.js / -csp-worker.js) and set worker URL via maplibregl.setWorkerUrl(...). Required CSP directives: worker-src blob:; child-src blob:; img-src data: blob:. [1]
  1. Performance & debugging tips
  • Use vector tiles and appropriate tile size/zoom ranges; cluster large GeoJSON sets (geojson source clustering). Use style-level filters and zoom-based layer visibility. Profile WebGL and reduce expensive paint operations. [1]
  1. Resources
  • Official docs & quickstart (API, examples, CSP, CDN). [1]
  • Mapbox→MapLibre migration guidance. [2]
  • MapLibre GL JS GitHub (source, issues, releases, examples). [3]

References
[1] MapLibre GL JS docs — Quickstart, API, CSP, CDN. (maplibre.org)
[2] MapLibre Mapbox migration guide (notes on replacing mapbox-gl). (maplibre.org)
[3] maplibre/maplibre-gl-js GitHub repository. (github.com)

If you want, I can: produce a ready-to-run HTML example, show how to load custom vector tiles, or give a migration diff from mapbox-gl to maplibre-gl for your codebase. Which would help most?

@yiweigao0226 Great choice! MapLibre GL JS is open-source and doesn't require API keys for basic tile rendering, which completely eliminates the security issue and simplifies configuration.

Implementation approach

1. Install MapLibre

npm install maplibre-gl

2. Create a MapLibre wrapper component for interactive maps

Replace the static image approach with an interactive map component:

// apps/meteor/client/components/message/content/location/MapLibreView.tsx
import { useEffect, useRef } from 'react';
import maplibregl from 'maplibre-gl';
import 'maplibre-gl/dist/maplibre-gl.css';

type MapLibreViewProps = {
  latitude: number;
  longitude: number;
  zoom?: number;
  interactive?: boolean;
};

export const MapLibreView = ({ 
  latitude, 
  longitude, 
  zoom = 16,
  interactive = true 
}: MapLibreViewProps) => {
  const mapContainer = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null);
  const map = useRef<maplibregl.Map | null>(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    if (!mapContainer.current) return;

    map.current = new maplibregl.Map({
      container: mapContainer.current,
      style: 'https://demotiles.maplibre.org/style.json', // or use OpenStreetMap tiles
      center: [longitude, latitude],
      zoom,
      interactive
    });

    new maplibregl.Marker()
      .setLngLat([longitude, latitude])
      .addTo(map.current);

    return () => map.current?.remove();
  }, [latitude, longitude, zoom, interactive]);

  return <div ref={mapContainer} style={{ width: '100%', height: '250px' }} />;
};

3. For static message previews, export map canvas to image

MapLibre can render maps that you can export as images using canvas methods after the map loads.

4. Update these files:

  • MapView.tsx → Replace with MapLibreView component
  • mapProvider.ts → Simplify to only return OSM URLs for external links
  • ShareLocationModal.tsx & LiveLocationModal.tsx → Use MapLibre for preview
  • liveLocationService.ts & useLiveLocationStopListener.ts → Remove hardcoded keys, generate OSM links only

5. Tile source options:

  • Use MapLibre-compatible style JSON with free OpenStreetMap tiles
  • No external API keys needed for basic OSM tiles
  • Can self-host tiles if needed for performance/customization

This approach gives you interactive maps without any API key management, better UX, and resolves the security concern completely. Would you like me to help draft the complete refactored components?

@yiweigao0226 Excellent work! 🎉 I can confirm your MapLibre implementation is complete and secure:

Verified clean implementation:

  • No hardcoded API keys in the codebase
  • mapProvider.ts uses OpenStreetMap's free static map service (no API keys required)
  • New location sharing components (ShareLocationModal, LiveLocationModal, MapLibreMap) use MapLibre correctly
  • OSMProvider generates URLs via staticmap.openstreetmap.fr - completely free and secure

However, regarding this specific diff:

This diff proposes adding a hardcoded LocationIQ key (pk.898e468814facdcffda869b42260a2f0) to the old message attachment renderer at apps/meteor/client/components/message/content/location/MapView.tsx. This change should not be applied as it would introduce the security vulnerability we discussed.

For the old MapView component, you have two options:

  1. Keep current approach: Leave it using Google Maps via useSetting('MapView_GMapsAPIKey', '') (current secure implementation)
  2. Migrate to MapLibre/OSM: Update it to use your new mapProvider pattern like the ShareLocation components

Recommendation: Option 2 would provide consistency across your codebase and eliminate the need for Google Maps API keys entirely. You could reuse your OSMProvider for both new location sharing AND rendering existing location message attachments.

Would you like me to provide a refactored version of the old MapView component to use your new MapLibre-based architecture?

geolocation (e.g. navigator.geolocation or canGetGeolocation), the room is not

@yiweigao0226, thank you for the improvements to the geolocation caching! Switching from sessionStorage to in-memory caching with reduced coordinate precision and adding the toJSON method sounds like a good refinement to the getGeolocationPosition implementation.

However, in this specific file (useShareLocationAction.tsx), the concern is about the hardcoded allowGeolocation = true on line 24. This bypasses all safety checks and will expose the Share Location action even when:

  • Geolocation API is not supported
  • The room is federated (where location sharing may not work)
  • No map provider is configured

Do you plan to restore the gating logic here, or is there a specific reason you want to keep it unconditionally enabled? If you're still working on the provider configuration checks, I can help update this to properly gate based on whether LocationIQ or Google Maps keys are configured.

@yiweigao0226, I can see you've added the proper checks for isMapViewEnabled and isGeolocationCurrentPositionSupported, and combined them into canGetGeolocation - that's great!

However, the issue is that on line 24, allowGeolocation is still hardcoded to true, which means these checks aren't actually being used:

const allowGeolocation = true;  // ← This bypasses all checks
// const allowGeolocation = room && canGetGeolocation && !isRoomFederated(room);

You should uncomment the original line to actually use the canGetGeolocation variable you defined:

const allowGeolocation = room && canGetGeolocation && !isRoomFederated(room);

This will ensure the Share Location action is only enabled when:

  • The room exists
  • MapView_Enabled is true
  • Browser supports geolocation
  • The room is not federated

The checks you added are perfect for the OSM-based approach (no API key needed), but they need to be connected to allowGeolocation to take effect.

@yiweigao0226, you're absolutely right - I can see in the current file content that the fix has been applied! 🎉

The proper gating is now in place:

const allowGeolocation = room && canGetGeolocation && !isRoomFederated(room);

This correctly ensures the Share Location action is only enabled when:

  • ✅ The room exists
  • MapView_Enabled setting is true
  • ✅ Browser supports geolocation API
  • ✅ The room is not federated

Since you're using MapLibre GL JS with OpenStreetMap, no API key checks are needed (as you correctly noted in the comment). The implementation looks good now!

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Remove hardcoded LocationIQ key; inject config.

Creating a service with an inline API key repeats the secret leak and forks config from the main flow.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Do not bypass the message service when creating the live-location message.

Writing directly with Messages.insertOne skips the normal message pipeline (room msgs/lm, subscription unread counters, mentions, notifier hooks, webhooks, etc.), so rooms will not reflect this share in unread counts or last-message summaries. Reuse the standard message insertion flow (e.g., go through the same helper we use for regular/static location messages) so all side effects fire before broadcasting the new doc.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/startLiveLocation.ts around
lines 70–105, the code currently writes the live-location message directly with
Messages.insertOne and then manually notifies, which bypasses the standard
message pipeline (room lm/msgs, unread counters, mentions, hooks, webhooks,
etc.). Replace the direct insert with the project's central message-insertion
helper used for regular/static location messages (i.e., call the same
service/function that creates messages so all side effects run), pass the
constructed msg object into that helper, capture the created message/result it
returns, and return its id; remove the direct insertOne/findOneById and the
manual notifyOnMessageChange call so the normal hooks/notifications handle
broadcasting and counters.

🧹 Nitpick comments (10)
apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/getLiveLocation.ts (2)

44-49: Redundant attachment lookup.

Line 44 searches msg.attachments for a live-location attachment, but the query at lines 28-36 already uses $elemMatch to ensure at least one such attachment exists. If the query succeeded, msg.attachments is guaranteed to contain a matching attachment, making this .find() call redundant.

Apply this diff to simplify:

-const attachment = msg.attachments?.find((att: any) => att.type === 'live-location') as any;
-if (!attachment) {
-  throw new Meteor.Error('error-live-location-not-found', 'Live location attachment not found', {
-    method: 'liveLocation.get',
-  });
-}
+const attachment = msg.attachments?.[0] as any;

50-62: Type safety: unvalidated access to attachment.live fields.

The returned object references deeply nested fields (e.g., attachment.live?.coords, attachment.live?.ownerId) without runtime validation. If the attachment structure is malformed or missing expected fields (e.g., attachment.live is null or undefined), the method returns undefined for those fields. This is safe but inconsistent with the earlier error handling (lines 38-42, 44-49) which throws explicit errors for missing data.

Consider adding a validation step to ensure attachment.live is present and has the expected shape before constructing the return object, or document that undefined is an acceptable return value for missing fields.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/updateLiveLocation.ts (2)

52-56: Redundant Date construction.

Line 54 constructs a Date from last via new Date(last), but last is already typed as Date | undefined (line 52). If last exists, it's already a Date instance, so the redundant construction is unnecessary. This occurs because the value is retrieved from MongoDB, which may return a date as an ISO string or a Date object depending on the driver configuration.

Apply this diff to ensure consistent Date handling:

-if (last && now.getTime() - new Date(last).getTime() < MIN_INTERVAL_MS) {
+if (last && now.getTime() - (last instanceof Date ? last : new Date(last)).getTime() < MIN_INTERVAL_MS) {

Or, more simply, trust that MongoDB dates are already Date objects:

-if (last && now.getTime() - new Date(last).getTime() < MIN_INTERVAL_MS) {
+if (last && now.getTime() - last.getTime() < MIN_INTERVAL_MS) {

84-94: Rate limiter inconsistency.

The rate limiter allows 12 calls per 60 seconds (line 92), which averages to one call every 5 seconds. However, the code enforces MIN_INTERVAL_MS = 3000 (3 seconds) at line 10. This creates an inconsistency: a client could theoretically send updates every 3 seconds and hit the rate limit after 36 seconds (12 calls × 3s = 36s).

Align the rate limiter with the minimum interval. If updates should occur every 3 seconds, allow 20 calls per 60 seconds (60s ÷ 3s = 20):

 DDPRateLimiter.addRule(
   {
     userId(userId: string) {
       return !!userId;
     },
     type: 'method',
     name: 'liveLocation.update',
   },
-  12,
+  20,
   60000
 );

Alternatively, if 12 calls per 60s is the intended limit, increase MIN_INTERVAL_MS to 5000.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/startLiveLocation.ts (5)

12-16: Unnecessary module augmentation.

The declare module 'meteor/meteor' block at lines 12-16 augments the Meteor namespace to add a type for Meteor.user(), but this method is never called in the file. The code uses Meteor.userId() (line 26) and Meteor.users.findOneAsync() (line 62), making this augmentation unused.

Remove the unused module augmentation:

-declare module 'meteor/meteor' {
-  namespace Meteor {
-    function user(): IUser | null;
-  }
-}
-

31-34: Unused room fetch.

Lines 31-34 fetch the room and throw an error if not found, but the room object itself is never used afterward. The access check at line 40 (canAccessRoomIdAsync) already verifies the room exists and the user has access. This makes the room fetch redundant.

Remove the unused room fetch:

-const room = await Rooms.findOneById<IRoom>(rid);
-if (!room) {
-  throw new Meteor.Error('error-room-not-found', 'Room not found', { method: 'liveLocation.start' });
-}
-

The canAccessRoomIdAsync check at line 40 will handle the room-not-found case.


62-68: Potential race condition: user deletion between auth check and fetch.

After verifying uid at line 26, the code fetches the user at lines 62-64. If the user is deleted between these two operations (e.g., by an admin), the method will throw error-invalid-user. While the window is small, this creates a potential race condition.

Consider handling this scenario more gracefully by falling back to a default username if the user fetch fails:

 const user = await Meteor.users.findOneAsync({ _id: uid }, { 
     projection: { username: 1, name: 1 } 
 });
 
 if (!user) {
-  throw new Meteor.Error('error-invalid-user', 'User not found', { method: 'liveLocation.start' });
+  // User was deleted after auth check - use fallback
+  user = { username: 'deleted-user', name: 'Deleted User' };
 }

Alternatively, if throwing an error is preferred, document that this is expected behavior for deleted users.


70-92: Type safety bypassed with as any cast.

Line 92 casts the entire message object as any, bypassing TypeScript's type checking. This could mask issues where the message structure doesn't match the expected schema. The cast is likely necessary because the message doesn't fully conform to the IMessage type, but it would be safer to define a proper type for live-location messages.

Consider defining a type for the message structure:

type LiveLocationMessage = {
  rid: string;
  ts: Date;
  u: { _id: string; username?: string; name?: string };
  attachments: Array<{
    type: 'live-location';
    live: {
      isActive: boolean;
      ownerId: string;
      startedAt: Date;
      lastUpdateAt: Date;
      expiresAt?: Date;
      coords: Coords | null;
      version: number;
    };
  }>;
};

Then replace as any with as LiveLocationMessage:

-} as any;
+} as LiveLocationMessage;

94-108: Incomplete error handling in try-catch block.

The try-catch block at lines 94-108 only wraps the insertion and notification logic, but if Messages.findOneById (line 97) or notifyOnMessageChange (line 99) fails, the error won't be caught and the method may throw an unhandled exception.

Expand the error handling to cover all operations:

 try {
   const result = await Messages.insertOne(msg);
   
   const createdMsg = await Messages.findOneById(result.insertedId);
   if (createdMsg) {
     void notifyOnMessageChange({
       id: createdMsg._id,
       data: createdMsg,
     });
   }
   
   return { msgId: result.insertedId };
-} catch (insertError) {
-  throw new Meteor.Error('error-message-creation-failed', 'Failed to create live location message', { method: 'liveLocation.start' });
+} catch (error) {
+  throw new Meteor.Error('error-message-creation-failed', 'Failed to create live location message', { 
+    method: 'liveLocation.start',
+    cause: error 
+  });
 }

Alternatively, consider whether notification failures should prevent returning the msgId. If notification is non-critical, handle it separately.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/startup/live-location.ts (1)

39-54: Document single-attachment guarantee for live-location messages
startLiveLocation always creates the message’s attachments array with exactly one element at index 0; add a comment in live-location.ts (and related methods) clarifying this assumption to justify the hard-coded attachments.0.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/getLiveLocation.ts (1)

28-42: Query doesn't filter by message owner.

The query at lines 28-36 locates any message with a live-location attachment in the room, but doesn't restrict it to messages owned by the requesting user ('u._id': uid is missing). This allows any room member to retrieve any user's live location data. While this may be intentional for a "viewer" use case, it creates a potential privacy concern if the design assumes only the owner can fetch their own live location state.

Verify whether non-owners should be able to retrieve live location data. If this is by design, consider documenting the access policy. If ownership restriction is intended, apply this diff:

 const msg = await Messages.findOne({
   _id: msgId,
   rid,
+  'u._id': uid,
   attachments: {
     $elemMatch: {
       type: 'live-location',
     },
   },

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Weak validation for opts.initial coordinates.

Line 24 validates opts with Match.Optional(Object) for the initial field, which only checks that it's an object but doesn't validate its structure. A malformed initial object (e.g., { lat: "invalid", lng: null }) will be accepted and stored, potentially breaking downstream consumers.

Apply this diff to add proper validation:

-check(opts, Match.ObjectIncluding({ durationSec: Match.Optional(Number), initial: Match.Optional(Object) }));

+  durationSec: Match.Optional(Number),

permits malformed coordinate objects; replace that with a stricter
Match.ObjectIncluding shape that requires numeric lat and lng (and optionally
numeric accuracy and timestamp) so only properly typed coordinates are accepted

updated check call enforces this shape for opts.initial.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Missing validation for optional finalCoords parameter.

Line 16 validates only rid and msgId, but not finalCoords. If a malformed finalCoords object is provided (e.g., { lat: "invalid", lng: null }), it will be stored in the database without validation, potentially breaking downstream consumers.

Apply this diff to add validation:

 check(rid, String);

when finalCoords is provided it matches the expected Coords shape (e.g., an
object with numeric lat and lng), using check with Match.Optional and
Match.Where/Match.ObjectIncluding or a shape check to ensure lat and lng are
Numbers (and validate any additional fields you expect), and reject or throw if

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Hard-coded array index assumes single attachment.

Lines 46-47 and 52 update attachments.0.live.*, assuming the live-location attachment is always at index 0. This is the same issue flagged in updateLiveLocation.ts. The selector at lines 32-42 uses $elemMatch to verify the attachment exists, but the update blindly modifies attachments.0, which could corrupt unrelated attachments if the live-location attachment is not first.

Apply the same positional operator fix as suggested in updateLiveLocation.ts:

 const modifier: any = {
   $set: {
-    'attachments.0.live.isActive': false,
-    'attachments.0.live.stoppedAt': new Date(),
+    'attachments.$.live.isActive': false,
+    'attachments.$.live.stoppedAt': new Date(),
   },
 };

 if (finalCoords) {
-  modifier.$set['attachments.0.live.coords'] = finalCoords;
+  modifier.$set['attachments.$.live.coords'] = finalCoords;
 }

Note: When using the positional operator $, MongoDB requires the query to include the array field in a way that identifies which element matched. The current selector with $elemMatch should work with $.

Update both the $set keys ('attachments.0.live.isActive',
'attachments.0.live.stoppedAt', and conditional 'attachments.0.live.coords') to
use 'attachments.$.live.isActive', 'attachments.$.live.stoppedAt', and
'attachments.$.live.coords' respectively, leaving the selector unchanged so
MongoDB can bind $ to the matched element.

@yiweigao0226, thanks for the update! I can see you're moving away from the Meteor.method pattern for this functionality.

However, I noticed the file apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/stopLiveLocation.ts still appears to exist in the current branch with the Meteor.methods implementation. Could you clarify:

  1. Are you planning to delete this file in an upcoming commit?
  2. Or have you already pushed the deletion and I'm looking at an outdated state?

If you're migrating to a different approach (e.g., REST API endpoints), I'd be happy to review that implementation instead. The hard-coded array index issue would be moot once the file is removed. 👍

Type definition duplicated across files.

The Coords type is defined identically in startLiveLocation.ts (line 10) and stopLiveLocation.ts (line 8). Consider extracting this type to a shared types file to reduce duplication and ensure consistency.

Create a shared types file (e.g., apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/types.ts) and export the Coords type:

export type Coords = { lat: number; lng: number; acc?: number };

Then import it in all three files:

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Hard-coded array index assumes single attachment.

Lines 63-64 update attachments.0.live.coords and attachments.0.live.lastUpdateAt, assuming the live-location attachment is always at index 0. This is fragile if a message contains multiple attachments or if the live-location attachment is not the first one. While the query at lines 34-44 uses $elemMatch to find the matching attachment, the update blindly modifies attachments.0.

This could corrupt unrelated attachments if the live-location attachment is not at index 0. To fix this safely, you need to use a positional operator ($) or update all matching elements. However, MongoDB's positional operator in update operations requires the query to also use the positional filter.

The safest approach is to ensure the query result guarantees the attachment structure, or use a more robust update strategy. For now, verify that all live-location messages have exactly one attachment at index 0, or refactor to use the positional operator:

 const res = await Messages.updateOne(
-  { _id: msgId },
+  {
+    _id: msgId,
+    'attachments.type': 'live-location',
+    'attachments.live.isActive': true,
+  },
   {
     $set: {
-      'attachments.0.live.coords': coords,
-      'attachments.0.live.lastUpdateAt': updateTime,
+      'attachments.$.live.coords': coords,
+      'attachments.$.live.lastUpdateAt': updateTime,
     },
   },
 );

Note: The positional operator $ updates the first element that matched the query's $elemMatch condition.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Silent error swallowing in ensureIndex helper.

The ensureIndex function at lines 7-13 catches all errors and ignores them (line 10-12). While this allows startup to proceed even if index creation fails, it completely hides potential issues such as:

  • Conflicting index definitions
  • Insufficient permissions
  • Database connectivity problems
  • Index name collisions

Silent failures make debugging difficult and could lead to performance issues if critical indexes aren't created.

Apply this diff to at least log errors:

 async function ensureIndex(collection: any, keys: any, options: any = {}) {
   try {
     await collection.col.createIndex(keys, options);
   } catch (e) {
-    // ignore errors
+    console.error('Failed to create index:', { keys, options, error: e });
   }
 }

Or better yet, throw critical errors:

 async function ensureIndex(collection: any, keys: any, options: any = {}) {
   try {
     await collection.col.createIndex(keys, options);
   } catch (e: any) {
-    // ignore errors
+    // Ignore "index already exists" errors, but throw others
+    if (e.code !== 85 && e.code !== 86) {
+      throw e;

♻️ Duplicate comments (19)

13-19: Hardcoded API key still present—previous review's critical issue unresolved.

The LocationIQ API key remains hardcoded despite being flagged in the previous review as a critical security issue. This key must be moved to secure configuration immediately and the leaked key rotated.

As recommended in the previous review, apply this diff:

-	const locationIQKey = 'pk.898e468814facdcffda869b42260a2f0';
+	const locationIQKey = (useSetting('MapView_LocationIQ_APIKey', '') as string) || '';
 
 	const linkUrl = `https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=${latitude}&mlon=${longitude}#map=16/${latitude}/${longitude}`;
 
-	const imageUrl = useAsyncImage(
-		`https://maps.locationiq.com/v2/staticmap?key=${locationIQKey}&center=${latitude},${longitude}&zoom=16&size=250x250&markers=icon:small-red-cutout|${latitude},${longitude}`,
-	);
+	const staticUrl = `https://maps.locationiq.com/v2/staticmap?key=${encodeURIComponent(
+		locationIQKey,
+	)}&center=${latitude},${longitude}&zoom=16&size=250x250&markers=icon:small-red-cutout|${latitude},${longitude}`;
+	const imageUrl = useAsyncImage(staticUrl);

Additionally, ensure you import useSetting from the appropriate package:

import { useSetting } from '@rocket.chat/ui-contexts';

Important: Rotate the exposed key immediately after applying this fix, as it has been committed to the repository.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/stopLiveLocation.ts (2)

15-54: Validate finalCoords before persisting.

Malformatted coordinates (e.g., strings) still slide through and get saved to the live-location attachment, breaking downstream consumers. Please add a check clause that enforces numeric lat/lng (and optional numeric acc) when finalCoords is supplied.

 		check(rid, String);
 		check(msgId, String);
+		if (finalCoords !== undefined) {
+			check(
+				finalCoords,
+				Match.ObjectIncluding({
+					lat: Number,
+					lng: Number,
+					acc: Match.Optional(Number),
+				}),
+			);
+		}

45-54: Stop updating attachments.0—use the positional operator.

The selector already finds the matching live-location attachment via $elemMatch, but the modifier still hard-codes index 0. If the live-location attachment is not the first entry, you’ll flip some other attachment to inactive. Switch those $set paths to attachments.$.live.* (or array filters) so MongoDB updates the element that matched the query.

 	const modifier: any = {
 		$set: {
-			'attachments.0.live.isActive': false,
-			'attachments.0.live.stoppedAt': new Date(),
+			'attachments.$.live.isActive': false,
+			'attachments.$.live.stoppedAt': new Date(),
 		},
 	};
 
 	if (finalCoords) {
-		modifier.$set['attachments.0.live.coords'] = finalCoords;
+		modifier.$set['attachments.$.live.coords'] = finalCoords;
 	}
apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/startLiveLocation.ts (2)

23-68: Tighten validation for opts.initial.

${Match.Optional(Object)} lets any shape through (including { lat: '0', lng: null }). Enforce numeric lat/lng (and optional numeric acc) so we never persist bad coordinates.

-		check(opts, Match.ObjectIncluding({ durationSec: Match.Optional(Number), initial: Match.Optional(Object) }));
+		check(
+			opts,
+			Match.ObjectIncluding({
+				durationSec: Match.Optional(Number),
+				initial: Match.Optional(
+					Match.ObjectIncluding({
+						lat: Number,
+						lng: Number,
+						acc: Match.Optional(Number),
+					}),
+				),
+			}),
+		);

74-112: Don’t bypass the message pipeline.

Creating the live-location message with Messages.insertOne skips the normal message service (room counters, notifiers, webhooks, Apps, etc.), so shares won’t behave like real messages. Please route this through the standard helper we use for regular/static location messages (e.g., insertMessage/sendMessage) and let that API return the created document instead of manual insertOne + notifyOnMessageChange.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/startup/live-location.ts (3)

6-12: Surface index-creation failures.

ensureIndex still swallows every error, masking permission or definition problems. At least log (preferably rethrow) anything other than “index already exists” so ops can react when the TTL/index creation fails.

 async function ensureIndex(collection: any, keys: any, options: any = {}) {
 	try {
 		await collection.col.createIndex(keys, options);
 	} catch (e: any) {
-		// ignore errors
+		if (e?.code !== 85 && e?.code !== 86) {
+			// 85/86 = duplicate index definitions in Mongo
+			throw e;
+		}
 	}
 }

35-51: Add error handling around the cleanup loop.

An exception from Messages.updateMany (network hiccup, write conflict) will currently vanish inside the interval. Wrap the body in try/catch and log the failure so we know cleanup stalled.


35-51: Broadcast cleanup changes to clients.

When the interval flips isActive to false, nobody is notified—rooms continue showing the session as live until a reload. Capture the affected message ids (e.g., prefetch them) and call notifyOnMessageChange after the update.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/methods/updateLiveLocation.ts (3)

9-20: Share Coords type instead of redefining locally.

This file still declares type Coords = { lat: number; lng: number; acc?: number }, duplicating the definitions in start/stop handlers. Extract the type into a shared module (e.g. ../types) and import it here to keep the shape consistent.


20-21: Tighten runtime validation of coords.

check(coords, Object) accepts anything object-like, so payloads missing lat/lng or carrying strings slip through and end up in the DB. Validate the shape explicitly (lat/lng numbers, optional acc) and reject invalid ranges.

-import { check } from 'meteor/check';
+import { check, Match } from 'meteor/check';-		check(coords, Object);
+		check(coords, {
+			lat: Number,
+			lng: Number,
+			acc: Match.Optional(Number),
+		});
+
+		if (!Number.isFinite(coords.lat) || coords.lat < -90 || coords.lat > 90) {
+			throw new Meteor.Error('error-invalid-coords', 'Latitude out of range', { method: 'liveLocation.update' });
+		}
+
+		if (!Number.isFinite(coords.lng) || coords.lng < -180 || coords.lng > 180) {
+			throw new Meteor.Error('error-invalid-coords', 'Longitude out of range', { method: 'liveLocation.update' });
+		}

Based on learnings


60-68: Use positional update instead of hard-coding attachments.0.

The selector’s $elemMatch doesn’t guarantee the live-location attachment sits at index 0. Updating attachments.0.* can corrupt unrelated attachments. Reuse the $elemMatch criteria in the update and target the matched element with the $ positional operator (or arrayFilters).

-		const res = await Messages.updateOne(
-			{ _id: msgId },
+		const res = await Messages.updateOne(
+			{
+				_id: msgId,
+				'attachments.type': 'live-location',
+				'attachments.live.isActive': true,
+			},
 			{
 				$set: {
-					'attachments.0.live.coords': coords,
-					'attachments.0.live.lastUpdateAt': updateTime,
+					'attachments.$.live.coords': coords,
+					'attachments.$.live.lastUpdateAt': updateTime,
 				},
 			},
 		);
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/useLiveLocationStopListener.ts (2)

31-38: Remove hard-coded LocationIQ key from client bundle.

The literal LocationIQ token is exposed to every browser and propagated into attachment URLs, allowing anyone to reuse or exhaust the key. Load keys from a secure server-side source (or require OSM-only static maps) and never persist them in messages.


29-49: Avoid duplicating stop-update logic.

This hook rebuilds the final attachment and calls /v1/chat.update, while LiveLocationModal.stopSharing performs the same update. The two competing writes race and spam history. Pick one place to own the final update (prefer the hook) and let the other just delegate to it.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/LiveLocationModal.tsx (3)

52-63: Strip Google/LocationIQ API keys from client code.

Hardcoding googleMapsApiKey / locationIQKey leaks credentials to every client and into chat history. Move these keys to secured server-side config (or disable providers needing keys) and fetch them at runtime without exposing secrets. Rotate the leaked keys immediately.


219-233: Do not persist key-bearing static map URLs in attachments.

createLiveLocationAttachment builds a LocationIQ image URL containing the API key, which then gets stored, forwarded and logged. Until you serve static maps through a keyless proxy (or choose a provider without keys), omit image_url/image_type for key-requiring providers.

-			image_url: staticMapUrl,
-			image_type: 'image/png',
+			...(map.name === 'openstreetmap'
+				? { image_url: staticMapUrl, image_type: 'image/png' }
+				: {}),

319-337: Remove duplicate “stop sharing” update block.

This component already calls stopLiveLocationSharing, which updates the message. The preceding if (messageIdRef.current && position) block issues another /v1/chat.update, producing double edits. Delete the local update and rely on the shared stop handler.

-		if (messageIdRef.current && position) {

42-54: Remove hard-coded map provider keys from the modal.

Embedding the Google and LocationIQ keys exposes them to all clients. Load keys from secure config (or disable providers needing them) and rotate the leaked credentials.


229-241: Avoid persisting static map URLs that contain API keys.

map.getStaticMapUrl returns a LocationIQ URL with the client key; storing it in image_url leaks the key in message history. Skip the static image unless you proxy it server-side without a key in the URL.

+					...(staticMapUrl ? { image_url: staticMapUrl, image_type: 'image/png' } : {}),

79-122: Do not embed LocationIQ keys in generated URLs.

generateMapUrls/createLocationAttachment bake locationIQKey into the static map URL, so every message attachment leaks the credential. Serve static maps via a server proxy (no key in the client URL) or limit to provider flows that require no key.

-		const staticMapUrl = `https://maps.locationiq.com/v2/staticmap?key=${this.config.locationIQKey}&center=${latitude},${longitude}&zoom=17&size=512x512&markers=icon:small-red-cutout|${latitude},${longitude}`;

15-18: Consider URL-encoding dynamic parameters.

While latitude and longitude are typed as numbers and likely safe, consistently encoding all dynamic values in URLs is a good security practice, especially for the API key.

-	const linkUrl = `https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=${latitude}&mlon=${longitude}#map=16/${latitude}/${longitude}`;
+	const linkUrl = `https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=${encodeURIComponent(latitude)}&mlon=${encodeURIComponent(longitude)}#map=16/${encodeURIComponent(latitude)}/${encodeURIComponent(longitude)}`;

Hey, there's some things that should be addressed here:

  • Meteor methods should not be introduced. You'll need to provide that functionality as new endpoints - check apps/meteor/app/api/server/v1 for examples.
  • There are several unaddressed comments by code rabbit ai. You'll need to either leave a reply explaining why the AI comment is invalid, or address the changes in the code.
  • There seem to be hard coded API keys in multiple locations. These should likely be a setting, correct?
  • There are several hard coded strings in the UI. All text shown to users needs to be introduced using i18n so it can be translated.
  • There are several as any type assertions in the code. This is generally considered a bad practice. Please make the assertions to a narrow type instead.
  • There are no automated tests covering the feature. Make sure to introduce testing.
  • There are checks in the CI that are not passing. Make sure all these are green.

Let me know if you need further clarification

From a security point of view, this feature should be location service agnostic - we should not hardcode OpenStreetMap nor Google Maps. Additionally, it should be optional and enabled via a setting in the administration panel. Lots of workspace administrators may not be comfortable with having a location sharing feature enabled in their servers.

Additionally, there are some API keys that are hardcoded in the PR that should be removed. Each workspace administrator should be able to provide their own API keys via a setting or the like.

By ensuring that we make it optional and location service agnostic, we're able to offer users the flexibility of enabling or not this feature in their respective workspaces.

4-5: Use the app’s i18n context, not react-i18next directly

Importing useTranslation from react-i18next bypasses Rocket.Chat’s ui-contexts provider. Switch to @rocket.chat/ui-contexts for consistency and to avoid missing provider/runtime issues.

apps/meteor/client/startup/startup.ts (1)

7-7: Single-source MapLibre CSS import — keep it centralized.

Importing CSS here is good; just ensure no other files import the same CSS to avoid duplicate styles and larger bundles. If this is the designated global import point, add a short comment to discourage re-imports elsewhere.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/useBrowserLiveLocation.spec.tsx (1)

61-68: Good lifecycle coverage on geolocation watch/cleanup.

Asserts coordinate updates and clearWatch(99) on unmount — solid. Consider also asserting that watchPosition was called once to guard regressions in the hook.

   expect(clearWatch).toHaveBeenCalledWith(99);
+  // Optional: ensure watch was registered exactly once
+  // (relies on the mock being a jest.fn)
+  // expect((navigator.geolocation as any).watchPosition).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/getGeolocationPosition.spec.ts (1)

101-117: Fallback-to-watch path looks robust; add a small assertion on clearWatch coupling.

You already verify clearWatch(1). Optionally also assert that watchPosition was invoked before success to couple the expectations.

   await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 0));
+  expect(geo.watchPosition).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
   geo.succeedWatch(11.1111, 22.2222);
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/ShareLocationModal.spec.tsx (2)

89-123: End-to-end static flow validation is solid; add payload shape checks for attachment/link if feasible.

You assert message text, rid/tmid, and close behavior. If the modal now emits a structured attachment (static location card), consider asserting that the payload includes the expected attachment with link/title from the map provider to catch formatting regressions.


72-88: Live-location disabled path: add a guard that the endpoint isn’t called.

Since live is disabled here, assert sendMessageSpy was not called to prevent accidental sends in the future.

   fireEvent.click(screen.getByText('Ok'));
   expect(screen.getByText('Current_Location')).toBeInTheDocument();
+  expect(sendMessageSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/mapProvider.spec.ts (1)

10-16: Add tests for defaults and numeric formatting

  • Also assert default args behavior: no opts passed should yield zoom 15 and 600x320 in the static URL.
  • Include a case with negative coords and more decimals to ensure string formatting is stable (no unexpected precision drift).

Also applies to: 18-22, 24-27

apps/meteor/client/views/room/composer/messageBox/MessageBoxActionsToolbar/hooks/useShareLocationAction.tsx (1)

18-21: Remove redundant room check; consider a simpler geolocation capability probe

  • room is already validated (throws if falsy), so room && in allowGeolocation is redundant.
  • Optional: Boolean(navigator.geolocation) is sufficient; checking getCurrentPosition specifically is not necessary.

Apply this diff:

-const isGeolocationCurrentPositionSupported = Boolean(navigator.geolocation?.getCurrentPosition);
-// OSM-based map preview does not require a Google Maps API key
-const canGetGeolocation = isMapViewEnabled && isGeolocationCurrentPositionSupported;
+const isGeolocationSupported = typeof navigator !== 'undefined' && !!navigator.geolocation;

22-29: Clarify throttle semantics; avoid side effects in “shouldPublish”

shouldPublish() mutates state (updates lastSentRef) which can be surprising. Prefer a two-step API or rename to reflect the side effect.

6-20: Minor: surface geolocation errors to the caller

Currently errors are swallowed. Consider returning an error state (e.g., set to a ref or separate error state) so the UI can inform users when permission is denied or unavailable.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/getGeolocationPosition.ts (1)

11-16: Guard sessionStorage cleanup more defensively (SSR/priv. modes)

Top‑level cleanup is fine, but add explicit guards to avoid ReferenceErrors in stricter runtimes.

Apply this diff:

-try {
-  sessionStorage.removeItem('lastGeoPosition');
-} catch {
-  // ignore sessionStorage unavailability (SSR, privacy mode, etc.)

101-107: Cap trail length to prevent unbounded memory growth

Live sessions may append indefinitely. Cap to a reasonable N to avoid leaks.

47-51: Use built-in AttributionControl instead of a manual overlay

MapLibre can render attribution from source metadata; avoids duplicated UI and keeps compliance consistent.

31-39: Make tile source configurable; avoid hard-coding tile.openstreetmap.org

Public OSM tiles aren't for heavy production use. Expose tiles URL via props so deployments can point to a self-hosted/proxy or a commercial provider, keeping you within OSM tile usage policy.

 type Props = {
   lat: number;
   lon: number;
   zoom?: number;
   height?: number | string;
   liveCoords?: { lon: number; lat: number } | null;
+  tilesUrl?: string;
   visible?: boolean;

+  height = 360,
+  liveCoords,
+  visible = true,
+  tilesUrl = 'https://tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png',
+}: Props) {

Then use [tilesUrl] instead of the hard-coded URL in the sources config at line 33.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/MapView.tsx (3)

50-52: Localize aria-label and title in the fallback placeholder

Keep accessibility strings translatable.

-        aria-label='Map preview unavailable'
-        title='Map preview unavailable'
+        aria-label={t('Map_Preview_Unavailable')}
+        title={t('Map_Preview_Unavailable')}

7-16: Remove or use the unused provider prop

provider?: MapProviderName is declared but unused; either remove it or use it to build mapInstance.


63-72: Optional: hint browser decoding priority for faster rendering

Harmless perf win for large images.

28-34: Clamp zoom and size to safe bounds to avoid oversized requests

Prevents accidental huge images and aligns with common provider limits.

 getStaticMapUrl(lat: number, lng: number, opts?: { zoom?: number; width?: number; height?: number }): string {
-  const zoom = opts?.zoom ?? 15;
-  const width = opts?.width ?? 600;
-  const height = opts?.height ?? 320;
+  const zoom = Math.max(0, Math.min(19, opts?.zoom ?? 15));
+  const width = Math.max(64, Math.min(1024, opts?.width ?? 600));
+  const height = Math.max(64, Math.min(1024, opts?.height ?? 320));
 
   return `https://staticmap.openstreetmap.fr/staticmap.php?center=${lat},${lng}&zoom=${zoom}&size=${width}x${height}&markers=${lat},${lng},red-pushpin`;
 }

33-34: Avoid relying on community staticmap.openstreetmap.fr for production

This service is community-run and rate-limited; it may be unreliable at scale. Prefer a self-hosted static map renderer, a proxy with caching, or a commercial tiles/static service. Also add CDN caching headers if proxied.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/ShareLocationModal.tsx (2)

36-37: Avoid hard-coding provider; allow configuration

Hard-coding 'openstreetmap' makes it harder to swap providers or styles. Consider wiring this to a setting or passing a provider instance from the caller.

-  const map: IMapProvider = useMemo(() => createMapProvider('openstreetmap', {}), []);
+  const map: IMapProvider = useMemo(() => createMapProvider('openstreetmap', {}), []);
+  // TODO: read provider from settings/feature flag and pass style/options as needed

211-217: Optional: use static MapView for preview to reduce tile load

Interactive MapLibre in the modal is heavier than necessary for a confirm step. A static preview (MapView) lowers network/CPU and aligns with attachment previews.

apps/meteor/app/live-location/server/startup/live-location.ts (2)

70-77: Narrow the arrayFilter to only stale/expired attachments.

As written, any active live-location attachment in the matched messages will be deactivated, not just the stale/expired ones. Include the same stale predicates in the arrayFilter to avoid deactivating non-stale attachments when a message contains multiple live-location entries.

-const options: UpdateOptions = {
-  arrayFilters: [
-    {
-      'liveAtt.type': 'live-location',
-      'liveAtt.live.isActive': true,
-    },
-  ],
-};
+const options: UpdateOptions = {
+  arrayFilters: [
+    {
+      'liveAtt.type': 'live-location',
+      'liveAtt.live.isActive': true,
+      $or: [
+        { 'liveAtt.live.lastUpdateAt': { $lt: staleBefore } },
+        { 'liveAtt.live.expiresAt': { $lte: now } },
+      ],
+    },
+  ],
+};

Also applies to: 63-77


91-99: Bound broadcast concurrency for large batches.

If many IDs are cleaned at once, a single Promise.allSettled can spike CPU/GC. Consider batching (e.g., 50–100) to smooth load; preserves ordering neutrality.

-const results = await Promise.allSettled(ids.map((id) => broadcastMessageUpdate(id)));
+const chunk = <T,>(arr: T[], n: number) => Array.from({ length: Math.ceil(arr.length / n) }, (_, i) => arr.slice(i * n, i * n + n));
+let rejected = 0;
+for (const batch of chunk(ids, 100)) {
+  const res = await Promise.allSettled(batch.map((id) => broadcastMessageUpdate(id)));
+  rejected += res.filter((r) => r.status === 'rejected').length;
+}
+if (rejected) {
+  console.error(`[LiveLocationCleanup] broadcastMessageUpdate(): ${rejected} failures of ${ids.length}`);
+}
apps/meteor/app/api/server/v1/liveLocation.ts (2)

46-51: Remove Meteor interface augmentation here.

This module-level augmentation of Meteor.user() is unnecessary and risks clashing with global typings. Prefer relying on this.userId provided by the API context.

-declare module 'meteor/meteor' {
-  // eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/naming-convention
-  interface Meteor {
-    user(): IUser | null;
-  }
-}

158-160: Consider API rate limiting at the route level.

You already throttle by MIN_INTERVAL_MS per message, but adding a per-user route limiter helps protect the server. Suggest adding rateLimiterOptions to update (and possibly start/stop) with sane defaults.

Please confirm the preferred pattern in this codebase; if supported, something like:

-API.v1.addRoute(
-  'liveLocation.update',
-  { authRequired: true },
+API.v1.addRoute(
+  'liveLocation.update',
+  { authRequired: true, rateLimiterOptions: { numRequests: 60, intervalTime: 60_000 } },

67-72: Nice negative-path coverage for API-unavailable case.

Deleting navigator.geolocation and asserting the thrown message aligns with the module’s guard (typeof window/'geolocation' in navigator). Looks good.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/ShareLocationModal.spec.tsx (1)

61-66: Good test harness with QueryClient; disable retries to keep tests deterministic.

The provider wrapper and retry disabled setting are appropriate for modal flows that depend on immediate state.

395-395: MapLibre GL worker configuration not yet implemented — requires CSP verification.

The codebase currently imports MapLibre without explicit worker configuration (workerClass). The CSS import at apps/meteor/client/startup/startup.ts:7 is present and not duplicated. However, MapLibre will default to using a blob:-based worker, which may violate strict CSP policies commonly enforced in Rocket.Chat environments.

Before merging:

  • Verify your CSP policy allows worker-src blob: and tile/image sources used by your style provider
  • If strict CSP is enforced without blob: support, configure MapLibre with workerClass to use an inline or CSP-compatible worker
  • Confirm tile domains in your style configuration are whitelisted in CSP and proxy settings

45-114: Acquisition flow and in‑memory cache look good

Multi‑stage get (quick, watch fallback, final high‑accuracy), coarse quantization (3 dp), no persisted PII. Solid improvements over sessionStorage. Consider exporting MAX_CACHE_AGE_MS/COARSE_DP for testability if needed.

17-23: Review assertion contradicted by codebase state

The verification search found hundreds of remaining imports of useTranslation from react-i18next throughout client code, contradicting the review comment's request to verify their absence. The file under review itself imports useTranslation at line 5, though the code snippet (lines 17–23) shows no direct usage of the hook.

Key findings:

  • Multiple packages retain these imports: packages/livechat/, packages/web-ui-registration/, packages/ui-voip/, packages/ui-client/, apps/meteor/client/, and many others
  • useShareLocationAction.tsx imports the hook but doesn't appear to call it in the shown lines

Clarification needed: Is the import in this file intentional (perhaps used elsewhere in the full file), or should it be removed as part of a broader migration?

302-327: Good fix: arrayFilters used for stop; avoids attachments[0] pitfalls.

Selector is scoped to _id, rid, u._id and uses attachments.$[liveAtt] with isActive: true. This closes the wrong-attachment/TOCTOU issue.


228-233: Enforce throttle atomically in Mongo; don’t read attachments[0] in app code.

Current logic reads attachments?.[0].live.lastUpdateAt and compares in app, which is (a) racy under concurrency and (b) may read the wrong attachment. Push the throttle predicate into arrayFilters and remove the app-side time check.

Apply:

-			const last: Date | undefined = (msg.attachments?.[0] as ILiveLocationAttachment)?.live?.lastUpdateAt;
-			const now = new Date();
-			if (last && now.getTime() - new Date(last).getTime() < MIN_INTERVAL_MS) {
-				return API.v1.success({ ignored: true, reason: 'too-soon' });
-			}
-
-			const updateTime = new Date();
+			const now = new Date();
+			const threshold = new Date(now.getTime() - MIN_INTERVAL_MS);
 			const res = await Messages.updateOne(
 				{ _id: msgId, rid, 'u._id': uid },
 				{
 					$set: {
 						'attachments.$[liveAtt].live.coords': coords,
-						'attachments.$[liveAtt].live.lastUpdateAt': updateTime,
+						'attachments.$[liveAtt].live.lastUpdateAt': now,
 					},
 				},
 				{
 					arrayFilters: [
 						{
 							'liveAtt.type': 'live-location',
 							'liveAtt.live.isActive': true,
+							$or: [
+								{ 'liveAtt.live.lastUpdateAt': { $lt: threshold } },
+								{ 'liveAtt.live.lastUpdateAt': { $exists: false } },
+							],
 						},
 					],
 				} as any,
 			);
 
-			if (res.modifiedCount > 0) {
+			if (res.modifiedCount === 0) {
+				return API.v1.success({ ignored: true, reason: 'too-soon-or-not-active' });
+			}
+			{
 				const updatedMsg = await Messages.findOneById(msgId);
 				if (updatedMsg) {
 					void notifyOnMessageChange({
 						id: updatedMsg._id,
 						data: updatedMsg,

33-33: Consider using the mapProvider abstraction for tile URL.

The OSM tile URL is hardcoded. Based on the AI summary mentioning mapProvider.ts with OSMProvider and attribution helpers, consider using that abstraction for consistency and easier provider switching.


133-145: Attribution could leverage mapProvider abstraction.

The attribution overlay is hardcoded. The mapProvider.ts module mentioned in the AI summary provides attribution methods that could centralize this concern and ensure consistency across static and live maps.

12-21: Make isValidCoords a proper type guard and simplify truthiness check.

Small TS polish; explicit return type helps callers and narrows types.

-const isValidCoords = (c?: { lat: number; lon: number }) =>
-	c &&
-	typeof c.lat === 'number' &&
+const isValidCoords = (c?: unknown): c is { lat: number; lon: number } =>
+	!!c &&
+	typeof (c as any).lat === 'number' &&
 	Number.isFinite(c.lat) &&
 	c.lat >= -90 &&
 	c.lat <= 90 &&
-	typeof c.lon === 'number' &&
+	typeof (c as any).lon === 'number' &&
 	Number.isFinite(c.lon) &&
 	c.lon >= -180 &&
 	c.lon <= 180;

58-63: Move Meteor typings augmentation to a central d.ts.

Local augmentation can conflict/duplicate across files. Prefer a single apps/meteor/types/meteor-user.d.ts (or existing types package).

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Close “double start” race; ensure single active live-location per user/room.

Two concurrent starts can both miss existing and insert duplicates. Add a partial unique index or make start atomic.

Option A (preferred): partial unique index (migration/startup):

await Messages.col.createIndex(
  { rid: 1, 'u._id': 1, 'attachments.type': 1, 'attachments.live.isActive': 1 },
  {
    name: 'uniq_active_live_location_per_user_room',
    unique: true,
    partialFilterExpression: {
      'attachments.type': 'live-location',
      'attachments.live.isActive': true,
    },
  },
);

Option B: atomic upsert (still recommend A as the guard):

-			const existing = await Messages.findOne({ rid, 'u._id': uid, 'attachments': { $elemMatch: { 'type': 'live-location', 'live.isActive': true } } });
-			if (existing) {
-				return API.v1.success({ msgId: existing._id });
-			}
+			const existing = await Messages.findOne({ rid, 'u._id': uid, 'attachments': { $elemMatch: { type: 'live-location', 'live.isActive': true } } });
+			if (existing) return API.v1.success({ msgId: existing._id });
...
-				const result = await Messages.insertOne(msg);
+				const result = await Messages.insertOne(msg); // guarded by unique index above

In apps/meteor/app/api/server/v1/liveLocation.ts around lines 106-119 (and
similarly at 159-173), two concurrent "start" requests can both miss the
existing query and insert duplicate active live-location attachments; add a
durable guard by adding a partial unique index at app startup/migration on {
rid, 'u._id', 'attachments.type', 'attachments.live.isActive' } with a name like
'uniq_active_live_location_per_user_room' and a partialFilterExpression that
only applies when attachments.type==='live-location' and
attachments.live.isActive===true, and also make the start operation atomic
(e.g., perform an upsert or findOneAndUpdate that only inserts when no active
attachment exists) so that even without the index concurrent requests cannot
create duplicates; apply the same changes for the code at lines 159-173.

@yiweigao0226 Thank you for adding the error handling! I can see you've added a try-catch block (lines 159-173 in liveLocation.ts) to handle duplicate key errors. However, the fix is incomplete:

What's currently in place:

  • ✅ Error handling for code 11000 (duplicate key error)
  • ✅ Retry logic to find existing message on duplicate

What's still missing:

  • The unique index in the database

The problem:
Without a unique index at the database level, MongoDB will never throw error code 11000 for duplicate live-location messages. Your error handling code will never be triggered, so concurrent requests can still create duplicates.

To complete the fix:

Add this unique index in packages/models/src/models/Messages.ts around line 68:

{ key: { 'rid': 1, 'u._id': 1, 'attachments.0.type': 1, 'attachments.0.live.isActive': 1 } },
// Add the unique constraint:
{
	key: { 'rid': 1, 'u._id': 1, 'attachments.0.type': 1, 'attachments.0.live.isActive': 1 },
	unique: true,
	partialFilterExpression: {
		'attachments.0.type': 'live-location',
		'attachments.0.live.isActive': true,
	},
	name: 'uniq_active_live_location_per_user_room',
},

This will:

  1. Prevent duplicate active live-location messages at the database level
  2. Trigger the error code 11000 that your error handling is designed to catch
  3. Ensure your retry logic in the catch block actually works

Without this index, the race condition remains unresolved.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Implement trail reset mechanism to prevent unbounded memory growth.

The trail coordinates accumulate indefinitely via trailCoordsRef.current.push([LON, LAT]) without any size limit or reset mechanism during the component's lifetime. In long-running live location sessions, this could lead to significant memory consumption and performance degradation.

Consider adding:

  1. A size limit (e.g., keep only the last N coordinates)
  2. A prop to reset the trail when starting a new session
  3. Time-based cleanup (remove coordinates older than X minutes)

Example implementation for size-limited trail:

 		markerRef.current.setLngLat([LON, LAT]);
-		trailCoordsRef.current.push([LON, LAT]);
+		const maxTrailLength = 1000;
+		trailCoordsRef.current.push([LON, LAT]);
+		if (trailCoordsRef.current.length > maxTrailLength) {
+			trailCoordsRef.current.shift();
+		}

@yiweigao0226, excellent! I can confirm you've implemented the trail size limit exactly as suggested. The trail now maintains a maximum of 1000 coordinates, preventing unbounded memory growth during long-running live location sessions. This ensures stable performance and memory usage. Great work! 🎉

packages/i18n/src/locales/en.i18n.json (3)

3254-3256: Improve map preview alt text for accessibility.

Alt text should convey purpose and context. Consider parameterizing to include a label (e.g., place name) and keep an explicit fallback when it’s unavailable.

- "Map_Preview_Alt": "Map preview",
- "Map_Preview_Unavailable": "Map preview unavailable",
+ "Map_Preview_Alt": "Map preview of {{label}}",
+ "Map_Preview_Unavailable": "Map preview unavailable"

If a label isn’t available, pass a generic like “shared location”. Based on learnings.


3956-3956: Now I need to search for where mapProvider.ts is and how it's actually used, and where the i18n translation OSM_Attribution is actually consumed.

Based on my verification through web searches and code examination:

Make provider/ODbL compliance flexible through template-based attribution

OpenMapTiles requires attribution "© MapTiler © OpenStreetMap contributors", while the current implementation only shows "© OpenStreetMap contributors". The suggested template approach with {{providerAttribution}} placeholder allows supporting multiple tile providers and their specific ODbL requirements.

The review comment identifies a valid compliance concern. The current hardcoded attribution in MapLibreMap.tsx line 35 would need to be updated alongside the i18n changes to fully implement this suggestion—replacing the static attribution string with a configurable template that accepts provider-specific values.

The suggested changes to the i18n file align with OpenMapTiles attribution requirements and would enable flexibility for future provider changes or upgrades to tile services that have additional licensing obligations.


2376-2376: Microcopy polish—optional UX improvements recommended.

The i18n keys are properly wired and the error recovery flow (Unable_To_Fetch_Current_Location + Try_again + Tips_Improve_Location_Accuracy_*) is already implemented in ShareLocationModal.tsx (lines 162–173). These suggested changes follow standard UX patterns:

  • Getting_Your_Location: Add ellipsis for progress states.
  • Live_Location_Disabled_Body: Use contraction for tone consistency.
  • Share_Location_Choice_Description: Simplify phrasing for clarity.
- "Getting_Your_Location": "Getting your location",
+ "Getting_Your_Location": "Getting your location…",

- "Live_Location_Disabled_Body": "Live location sharing is not available in this build",
+ "Live_Location_Disabled_Body": "Live location sharing isn't available in this build",

- "Share_Location_Choice_Description": "Choose to share your current location once or start live location sharing"
+ "Share_Location_Choice_Description": "Share your current location once, or start live location sharing"

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

🧩 Analysis chain

Avoid duplicate semantics: consider reusing “My location” or “Location”.

You added Current_Location, but similar keys exist: My_location and Location. To keep copy consistent and reduce churn across locales, prefer one canonical label (e.g., reuse My_location or Location) unless the UX needs a distinct string. If distinct, clarify the nuance in the key name (e.g., Location_Current_Label).

Add Current_Location translations to all locale files to complete i18n consistency.

Current_Location is used in the share location feature (ShareLocationModal) but exists only in en.i18n.json. Add this key to all ~50 other locale files (following the same line patterns as My_location and other location-related strings) to avoid breaking the localization setup. The original concern about duplication with My_location is not applicable—My_location is unused in the codebase, and Current_Location serves a distinct feature context.

Affected locales: az, fa, zh-TW, zh, vi-VN, zh-HK, bg, uk, tr, ta-IN, sv, sq, sl-SI, sk-SK, sr, ro, ru, pt, pt-BR, pl, ms-MY, nn, mn, lt, ku, lo, lv, km, ko, nb, it, id, ka-GE, hr, nl, he, fr, eo, es, fi, el, de-AT, de-IN, da, cy, hu, cs, ja, af, ar, ca, de, be-BY, bs, th-TH, hi-IN (and any others in the locales directory).

@yiweigao0226 Short answer: you don’t need to touch all ~50 locale files for this PR. The i18n layer falls back to English if a key is missing in a locale, so adding it to en.i18n.json is sufficient and translators will pick it up later. See the Internationalization guide note about English fallback. (developer.rocket.chat)

If you still want to backfill a placeholder into every locale now (so they all explicitly contain Current_Location), here’s a small helper you can run from the repo root. It reads the English string and injects it into each locale file only if the key is missing.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail

BASE="packages/i18n/src/locales"
KEY="Current_Location"

# Grab the English value (e.g., "Current Location") from en.i18n.json
VAL="$(jq -r --arg k "$KEY" '.[$k]' "$BASE/en.i18n.json")"

if [[ -z "$VAL" || "$VAL" == "null" ]]; then
  echo "Error: key \"$KEY\" not found in $BASE/en.i18n.json" >&2
  exit 1
fi

# Iterate over all locale files except English
find "$BASE" -name '*.i18n.json' ! -name 'en.i18n.json' | while read -r f; do
  if jq -e --arg k "$KEY" 'has($k)' "$f" > /dev/null; then
    echo "ok  - $(basename "$f") already has $KEY"
  else
    tmp="${f}.tmp"
    # Add the missing key with the English fallback value
    jq --arg k "$KEY" --arg v "$VAL" '. + {($k): $v}' "$f" > "$tmp" && mv "$tmp" "$f"
    echo "add - $(basename "$f") -> $KEY"
  fi
done

# Optional: verify JSON remains valid
echo
echo "Verifying JSON syntax..."
find "$BASE" -name '*.i18n.json' -print0 | xargs -0 -n1 jq -e >/dev/null && echo "All good ✅"

Notes:

  • This is safe to run repeatedly; it only adds the key when missing.
  • If you prefer not to backfill, doing nothing is fine—the UI will show the English string until translations land via the normal localization workflow.

245-249: Major: Throttle check has TOCTOU race - move predicate to arrayFilters.

The throttle enforcement is vulnerable to time-of-check-to-time-of-use races:

  1. Two concurrent updates read msg at lines 229-243
  2. Both pass the lastUpdateAt check at lines 245-249
  3. Both execute updateOne at lines 252-268
  4. Result: multiple updates within the 3-second window

Fix by moving the throttle check into the arrayFilters predicate:

-const last: Date | undefined = (msg.attachments?.[0] as ILiveLocationAttachment)?.live?.lastUpdateAt;
-const now = new Date();
-if (last && now.getTime() - new Date(last).getTime() < MIN_INTERVAL_MS) {
-  return API.v1.success({ ignored: true, reason: 'too-soon' });
-}
-
-const updateTime = new Date();
+const now = new Date();
+const threshold = new Date(now.getTime() - MIN_INTERVAL_MS);
+
 const res = await Messages.updateOne(
   { _id: msgId, rid, 'u._id': uid },
   {
     $set: {
       'attachments.$[liveAtt].live.coords': coords,
-      'attachments.$[liveAtt].live.lastUpdateAt': updateTime,
+      'attachments.$[liveAtt].live.lastUpdateAt': now,
     },
   },
   {
     arrayFilters: [
       {
         'liveAtt.type': 'live-location',
         'liveAtt.live.isActive': true,
+        $or: [
+          { 'liveAtt.live.lastUpdateAt': { $lt: threshold } },
+          { 'liveAtt.live.lastUpdateAt': { $exists: false } },
+        ],
       },
     ],
   } as any,
 );

+if (res.modifiedCount === 0) {
+  return API.v1.success({ ignored: true, reason: 'too-soon-or-not-active' });
+}
+
-if (res.modifiedCount > 0) {
+{
   const updatedMsg = await Messages.findOneById(msgId);
   if (updatedMsg) {
     void notifyOnMessageChange({

This makes the throttle check atomic at the database level.

🧹 Nitpick comments (8)
apps/meteor/app/api/server/v1/liveLocation.ts (1)

289-289: Optional: Use consistent route context type.

For consistency with the other endpoints, consider typing the context:

-  async post(this: any) {
+  async post(this: IAPIRouteContext) {
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/MapLibreMap.tsx (1)

97-115: Inconsistent indentation in visibility resize effect.

Lines 98-115 use spaces for indentation while the rest of the file uses tabs. This appears to be a formatting inconsistency.

Ensure consistent tab-based indentation throughout the effect:

 	useEffect(() => {
-        const map = mapRef.current;
-        if (!map || !visible) return;
+		const map = mapRef.current;
+		if (!map || !visible) return;
 
-        let r1 = 0;
-        let r2 = 0;
+		let r1 = 0;
+		let r2 = 0;
 
-        // wait for visibility/layout to settle, then resize
-        r1 = requestAnimationFrame(() => {
-            r2 = requestAnimationFrame(() => {
-            map.resize();
-            });
-        });
+		// wait for visibility/layout to settle, then resize
+		r1 = requestAnimationFrame(() => {
+			r2 = requestAnimationFrame(() => {
+				map.resize();
+			});
+		});
 
-        return () => {
-            if (r1) cancelAnimationFrame(r1);
-            if (r2) cancelAnimationFrame(r2);
-        };
-    }, [visible]);
+		return () => {
+			if (r1) cancelAnimationFrame(r1);
+			if (r2) cancelAnimationFrame(r2);
+		};
+	}, [visible]);
packages/i18n/src/locales/en.i18n.json (3)

5333-5333: Reuse existing “Retry” instead of introducing “Try_again”.

Avoid near-duplicate keys for the same CTA.

-  "Try_again": "Try again",

Update call sites to use the existing "Retry".


3956-3956: OSM attribution: include required copyright link(s).

Text is fine, but ensure the UI wraps it with a link to OpenStreetMap copyright (and license, if shown) when rendered.

If UI supports i18n with markup (e.g., <1> tags), consider:

  • Keep OSM_Attribution as plain text for minimal UIs.
  • Optionally add OSM_Attribution_HTML and use it where links are allowed.

Also applies to: 5694-5694


3254-3256: Slightly clearer alt text for screen readers (optional).

“Map preview” can be more descriptive.

-  "Map_Preview_Alt": "Map preview",
+  "Map_Preview_Alt": "Map preview of location",
   "Map_Preview_Unavailable": "Map preview unavailable",
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/ShareLocationModal.tsx (2)

65-74: Consider logging or notifying on geolocation errors.

The catch block at Line 70 silently swallows all errors from getGeolocationPosition(). While the subsequent permission state update may handle denied cases in the UI, other errors (e.g., timeout, unavailable API) won't provide user feedback.

Consider adding minimal error logging or a toast notification:

 		} catch (e) {
+			console.warn('Geolocation request failed:', e);
 			const state = await getGeolocationPermission();
 			queryClient.setQueryData(['geolocationPermission'], state);
 		}

220-220: State machine fallback could use null for clarity.

The empty fragment <></> at Line 220 serves as a fallback for the state machine. While the state transitions appear to cover all cases (choose/live/static paths), returning null would be more idiomatic for a "render nothing" fallback in React.

-	return <></>;
+	return null;
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/getGeolocationPosition.ts (1)

87-101: Consider logging the swallowed transient-retry error.

Lines 97-100 silently discard the error from the transient retry attempt with void e;. While this allows the flow to proceed to the final high-accuracy attempt (which is reasonable), it makes debugging harder if the transient retry consistently fails.

Add minimal logging to aid troubleshooting:

 			} catch (e) {
 				// ignore transient failure; a final high-accuracy attempt will follow
-				void e;
+				console.debug('Transient retry failed, proceeding to high-accuracy attempt:', e);
 			}

🔇 Additional comments (8)
apps/meteor/app/api/server/v1/liveLocation.ts (2)

285-367: LGTM - stop endpoint properly uses arrayFilters.

The stop endpoint correctly addresses previous review concerns by:

  • Using arrayFilters to target the specific live-location attachment (lines 337-343)
  • Including rid and u._id in the selector (lines 318-322)
  • Making the update conditional on isActive: true (line 340)
  • Properly handling the optional finalCoords parameter (lines 329-331)

This prevents updating the wrong attachment and closes TOCTOU gaps.


369-434: LGTM - get endpoint looks solid.

The retrieval endpoint properly:

  • Validates all required parameters and authentication
  • Enforces room access and membership checks
  • Safely finds the live-location attachment using type matching
  • Returns a comprehensive payload with all relevant fields
apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/MapLibreMap.tsx (1)

117-141: LGTM!

The live coordinates effect correctly updates the marker position and maintains a bounded trail with a maximum of 1000 coordinates, preventing memory growth issues. The GeoJSON update logic is clean and efficient.

apps/meteor/client/views/room/ShareLocation/getGeolocationPosition.ts (5)

3-3: LGTM: AnyErr type extension is appropriate.

The AnyErr type extends GeolocationPositionError with an optional message property to handle variations in browser implementations. This is a pragmatic approach to type safety for error handling.


11-16: LGTM: Safe migration cleanup for old sessionStorage.

The try-catch wrapped sessionStorage.removeItem at Lines 11-16 safely migrates away from the old sessionStorage-based caching (which had PII concerns). The catch block correctly handles environments where sessionStorage is unavailable (SSR, privacy modes, etc.).


22-43: LGTM: Coarse position with preserved timestamp.

The toCoarsePosition function correctly:

  • Quantizes coordinates to 3 decimal places (~111m precision) for privacy
  • Preserves the original src.timestamp (Line 34) to maintain measurement fidelity
  • Includes a toJSON method (Lines 35-41) to ensure proper serialization

This addresses previous PII and serialization concerns.


45-114: LGTM: Well-structured multi-stage geolocation strategy.

The staged fallback approach is resilient:

  • Stage 0: Serves fresh in-memory cache (30s validity)
  • Stage 1: Quick low-accuracy read (8s timeout, lets CoreLocation settle)
  • Stage 2: Transient fallback via watchPosition with additional retry
  • Stage 3: Final high-accuracy attempt

The flow correctly bails on PERMISSION_DENIED and handles Apple's transient kCLErrorLocationUnknown errors.


116-144: LGTM: watchOnce cleanup logic is correct.

The watchOnce helper properly cleans up both the watch ID and timeout in all code paths (success, error, and timeout). The timeout fallback at Line 128 (options.timeout ?? 20000) is defensive coding, even though callers already specify timeout.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Critical: Error handler is unreachable after return statement.

Lines 85-87 register the map.on('error', ...) handler after the cleanup function's return statement, making this code unreachable. Error handling is currently non-functional.

Apply this diff to move the error handler before the cleanup return:

@yiweigao0226 Perfect! I've verified the fix and can confirm that the error handler is now properly positioned. The map.on('error', ...) handler has been moved to lines 52-54, before the return statement, making it reachable and functional during the component's lifecycle.

The error handler will now correctly catch and log any MapLibre errors. The cleanup is also handled appropriately since map.remove() tears down the map instance and removes all associated event listeners.

Great work fixing this critical issue! 🎉

From a security point of view, this feature should be location service agnostic - we should not hardcode OpenStreetMap nor Google Maps. Additionally, it should be optional and enabled via a setting in the administration panel. Lots of workspace administrators may not be comfortable with having a location sharing feature enabled in their servers.

Additionally, there are some API keys that are hardcoded in the PR that should be removed. Each workspace administrator should be able to provide their own API keys via a setting or the like.

By ensuring that we make it optional and location service agnostic, we're able to offer users the flexibility of enabling or not this feature in their respective workspaces.

For the location service agnostic feature, due to time constraints, I’ve included only the default OSM provider for now. However, I plan to add a settings preference later that will allow users to select their preferred map provider. The settings functionality has already been implemented on the mobile side.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

TTL index only expires live locations if they stay at attachments[0]

The TTL relies on 'attachments.0.live.expiresAt', but any live-location message that gains a different attachment ahead of it (or simply stores the live attachment past index 0) will no longer match the partial filter. Those documents never enter the TTL index, so their real-time location data will persist indefinitely—exactly the privacy risk this cleanup was meant to prevent. MongoDB TTL indexes can safely target array subdocuments directly; they use the earliest date in the array when expiring entries.(mongodb.com) Please anchor the TTL to the $elemMatch element instead of the first array slot, for example:

-		{
-			key: { 'attachments.0.live.expiresAt': 1 },
-			expireAfterSeconds: 0,
-			partialFilterExpression: {
-				'attachments.0.type': 'live-location',
-				'attachments.0.live.expiresAt': { $type: 'date' },
-			},
-			name: 'liveLocation_expiresAt_TTL',
-		},
+		{
+			key: { 'attachments.live.expiresAt': 1 },
+			expireAfterSeconds: 0,
+			partialFilterExpression: {
+				attachments: {
+					$elemMatch: {
+						type: 'live-location',
+						'live.expiresAt': { $type: 'date' },
+					},
+				},
+			},
+			name: 'liveLocation_expiresAt_TTL',
+		},

That way the TTL remains effective regardless of attachment ordering, and the cleanup guarantees stay intact.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In packages/models/src/models/Messages.ts around lines 83–90, the TTL index
currently targets 'attachments.0.live.expiresAt' so only documents where the
live attachment is at index 0 are indexed; change the index to target the array
element instead and use a partialFilterExpression with $elemMatch so any
attachment with type 'live-location' and a date expiresAt is included.
Specifically, set the key to the array path for the nested date (e.g.
'attachments.live.expiresAt'), keep expireAfterSeconds: 0, and replace the
partialFilterExpression with an $elemMatch on attachments: { $elemMatch: { type:
'live-location', 'live.expiresAt': { $type: 'date' } } } (and optionally update
the index name) so TTL applies regardless of attachment ordering.
