Section 5.3 Temporary Code Snippets

This file collects the main backend and web app snippets referenced in Section 5.3 so they can be screenshotted easily.

Each snippet includes:

  • a short description of what it demonstrates
  • a source reference you can cite in the report
  • the code excerpt itself

Snippet 1: Backend Bootstrap and Route Mounting

What this shows:
This snippet shows how the backend is assembled in one place. It configures CORS and security middleware, exposes OpenAPI docs, mounts Better Auth, registers the main route groups, and starts the realtime gateway plus background workers.

Source: Backend/index.ts

const app = express();
const openApiDocument = buildOpenApiDocument();
const trustedOrigins = process.env.BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS
  ? process.env.BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS.split(',').map((origin) => origin.trim()).filter(Boolean)
  : [];
const corsMiddleware = cors({
  origin: trustedOrigins.length > 0 ? trustedOrigins : true,
  credentials: true,
});

app.get('/openapi.json', (_req, res) => {
  res.json(openApiDocument);
});

app.use('/docs', swaggerUi.serve, swaggerUi.setup(openApiDocument));

app.use(
  helmet({
    contentSecurityPolicy: {
      directives: {
        ...helmet.contentSecurityPolicy.getDefaultDirectives(),
        "script-src": ["'self'", "'unsafe-inline'", "cdn.jsdelivr.net", "cdn.tailwindcss.com"],
        "style-src": ["'self'", "'unsafe-inline'", "cdn.jsdelivr.net", "fonts.googleapis.com"],
        "font-src": ["'self'", "fonts.gstatic.com"],
        "connect-src": connectSrcDirectives,
        "media-src": mediaSrcDirectives,
        "img-src": ["'self'", "data:", "blob:"],
      },
    },
  }),
);
app.use(corsMiddleware);
app.all('/api/auth/*splat', corsMiddleware, toNodeHandler(auth));
app.use(rateLimit({ keyPrefix: 'global', windowMs: 60_000, max: 400 }));
app.use(requestContext);
app.use(express.json());
app.use('/sim', express.static('public'));
app.use('/videos', videosRoutes);
app.use('/admin', adminRoutes);
app.use('/devices', rateLimit({ keyPrefix: 'devices', windowMs: 60_000, max: 120 }), devicesRoutes);
app.use('/device-links', deviceLinksRoutes);
app.use('/commands', rateLimit({ keyPrefix: 'commands', windowMs: 60_000, max: 120 }), commandsRoutes);
app.use('/events', rateLimit({ keyPrefix: 'events', windowMs: 60_000, max: 120 }), eventsRoutes);
app.use('/streams', rateLimit({ keyPrefix: 'streams', windowMs: 60_000, max: 120 }), streamsRoutes);
app.use('/recordings', rateLimit({ keyPrefix: 'recordings', windowMs: 60_000, max: 120 }), recordingsRoutes);
app.use('/push-notifications', pushNotificationsRoutes);
app.use('/audit', auditRoutes);
app.use('/ops', opsRoutes);

const start = async () => {
  try {
    await ensureMinioBucket();
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('MinIO initialization failed', error);
    process.exit(1);
  }

  setupRealtimeGateway(server);
  startRecordingsWorker();
  startPushWorker();

  server.listen(port, () => {
    console.log(`Server is running on port ${port}`);
  });
};

Snippet 2: Better Auth Configuration

What this shows:
This snippet shows how session-based user authentication is integrated with the project database through Better Auth and Drizzle.

Source: Backend/auth.ts

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: drizzleAdapter(db, {
    provider: 'pg',
    schema: {
      ...schema,
      user: schema.users,
      account: schema.accounts,
      session: schema.sessions,
      verification: schema.verifications,
    },
  }),
  advanced: {
    database: {
      generateId: 'uuid',
    },
  },
  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
    password: {
      hash: async (password) => hashPassword(password),
      verify: async ({ hash, password }) => verifyPassword(password, hash),
    },
  },
  secret: getRequiredEnv('BETTER_AUTH_SECRET'),
  baseURL: getBetterAuthBaseUrl(),
  trustedOrigins,
});

Snippet 4: Device Registration and Token Issuance

What this shows:
This route creates a device record, automatically links it to opposite-role devices under the same account, and returns a signed device token used for device-level authentication.

Source: Backend/routes/devices.ts

router.post('/register', requireAuth, async (req, res) => {
  const parsed = registerSchema.safeParse(req.body);

  if (!parsed.success) {
    res.status(400).json({ message: 'Invalid request body', errors: parsed.error.flatten() });
    return;
  }

  const authSession = req.auth;

  if (!authSession?.user?.id) {
    res.status(401).json({ message: 'Unauthorized' });
    return;
  }

  const now = new Date();
  const [device] = await db
    .insert(devices)
    .values({
      userId: authSession.user.id,
      name: parsed.data.name,

    message: 'Device registered',
    device,
    deviceToken,
  });
});

Snippet 5: Stream Request Lifecycle

What this shows:
This route validates the client device, confirms the target is a linked camera, inserts a stream_sessions row, and emits a realtime stream:requested event in simplified mode.

Source: Backend/routes/streams.ts

router.post('/request', requireDeviceAuth, async (req, res) => {
  const parsed = requestStreamSchema.safeParse(req.body ?? {});

  if (!parsed.success) {

    }),
  ]);

  if (!sourceDevice || !cameraDevice) {
    res.status(404).json({ message: 'Source or camera device not found' });
    return;
  }

  if (sourceDevice.role !== 'client') {
    res.status(403).json({ message: 'Only client devices can request on-demand stream sessions' });
    return;
  }

  if (cameraDevice.role !== 'camera') {

      eq(deviceLinks.status, 'active'),
    ),
  });

    return;
  }

  const now = new Date();

      streamSessionId: session.id,
      requesterDeviceId: sourceDevice.id,
      cameraDeviceId: cameraDevice.id,
      mode: 'simple',
    });

    sendRealtimeToDevice(sourceDevice.id, 'stream:requested', requestPayload);

    if (!deliveredToCamera) {

        recipientDeviceId: cameraDevice.id,
        type: 'stream_requested',
        payload: requestPayload,
      });
    }

      ipAddress: req.ip,
    });
    return;
  }

Snippet 6: Stream Accept Lifecycle

What this shows:
This route moves a stream session from requested to streaming, records start metadata, optionally initializes SFU state, and emits stream:started to the viewer.

Source: Backend/routes/streams.ts

router.post('/:streamSessionId/accept', requireDeviceAuth, async (req, res) => {
  const parsedParams = streamParamSchema.safeParse(req.params);

  if (!parsedParams.success) {

Snippet 7: WebRTC Signal Relay

What this shows:
This Socket.IO handler validates each signal packet against the owning account and active stream session before relaying SDP or ICE data to the target device room.

Source: Backend/realtime/gateway.ts

socket.on('webrtc:signal', async (input) => {
  const parsed = webrtcSignalSchema.safeParse(input);

  if (!parsed.success) {
    socket.emit('error:webrtc_signal', {
