Reverse-engineer DWARF II telescope API and build open-source Go client

Complete reverse-engineering of the DWARFLAB Android app (v3.4.0) protocol
and implementation of a working CLI tool to control DWARF II telescopes.

Analysis (from APK decompilation with jadx):
- Extracted 17 protobuf definitions (382 messages) from embedded descriptors
- Mapped all 323 WebSocket command IDs across 16 modules
- Documented the full protocol: BLE discovery, WebSocket control (port 9900),
  RTSP preview, WsPacket envelope (proto v2.3)
- Documented the Android UI structure (screens, navigation, shooting modes)
- Key discovery: telescope responds with type=3 (reply), not type=1 (response),
  and several commands are fire-and-forget (RGB, camera open/close)

dwarfctl Go client:
- Protobuf bindings generated from extracted .proto files (397 messages)
- WebSocket transport layer with request-response matching and notification fan-out
- Typed API covering cameras, motors, astrophotography, focus, tracking, system, power
- Cobra CLI with 30+ subcommands and --debug traffic logging
- 57 unit tests (transport round-trip, command routing, proto encoding)
- Validated on real hardware: state, photo, motor slew (all directions/speeds),
  focus, RGB, time/location sync all confirmed working

# DWARFLAB App — UI / UX Reference (reverse-engineered)
Reverse-engineered from `DWARFLAB.apk` v3.4.0 (`com.convergence.dwarflab`). This
document describes the **user interface, screen hierarchy, navigation, and
interactions** so the app can be reimplemented in another language/framework.
Focus: **Splash → Home → Connection → Capture (main shooter) → Settings**.
(Atlas/Sky-Atlas and Album/Gallery screens are documented separately.)
---
## 1. App structure & navigation model
The app uses **Jetpack Navigation** (single-activity `MainActivity` + a
`NavHostFragment`) with a **`BottomNavigationView`** of 4 tabs, plus several
full-screen Activities launched outside the nav graph.
### 1.1 Entry / launch flow
```
SplashActivity (launcher, branding + init)
└─▶ MainActivity (NavHost + BottomNavigationView, 4 tabs)
├─ Tab 1: Home → HomeFragment
├─ Tab 2: Atlas → AtlasActivity (separate)
├─ Tab 3: Album → AlbumFragment / AlbumActivity
└─ Tab 4: Settings → SettingsFragment
```
- `mobile_navigation.xml` is the main nav graph; `startDestination =
navigation_device` (Home).
- `HeartbeatEntryActivity` is a transparent launcher alias used to keep a
foreground service alive (the BLE/Wi-Fi heartbeat to the scope).
- Tab labels (from `bottom_nav_menu.xml` + strings `home_3/4/5`, `camera_astro_69`):
| tab | id | label (en) | icon |
|-----|----|-----------|------|
| 1 | `navigation_device` | **Home** | `icon_function_tabbar_home` |
| 2 | `navigation_atlas` | **Atlas** | `icon_function_tabbar_atlas` |
| 3 | `navigation_album` | **Album** | `icon_function_tabbar_album` |
| 4 | `navigation_settings` | **Settings** | `icon_function_tabbar_settings` |
The bottom bar can be hidden (`MainActivity.isShowBottomNav`) when entering
full-screen sub-flows (device connect, OTA, capture).
### 1.2 Activities (beyond the nav graph)
| Activity | Purpose |
|----------|---------|
| `SplashActivity` | Cold-start splash, version checks, routing to connect vs. main |
| `MainActivity` | Hosts the 4 tabs + NavHost |
| `CaptureActivity` | **The shooting screen** (9199 lines — the heart of the app) |
| `AtlasActivity` | Sky atlas / star map / GoTo target selection |
| `AlbumActivity` | Gallery of captured photos/videos/FITS |
| `LocationActivity` | Map to set observing location |
| `CaliFrameActivity` | Calibration-frame capture/management |
| `HelperActivity` | In-app help / guide center |
| `WebActivity` / `NavActivity` | Embedded web views (privacy, OSS notice, help docs) |
| `NfcWriteActivity` | NFC tag update (device name change) |
| `MosaicGuideActivity`, `SkyLightTipActivity`, `StarSearchActivity` | Atlas sub-screens |
---
## 2. Splash & first-run
`SplashActivity` → decides between:
- **Not connected**: routes to `HomeFragment` which shows a *device-discovery /
connect* CTA when no scope is paired.
- **App upgrade available**: shows `AppUpdateDialog` (force-update path uses
`FirmwareForceUpdateDialog`).
- **System notice**: `AppNotice` banner.
`MainActivity` also handles: app-upgrade dialogs, product-activation dialog
(`ProductActivateDialog`), not-enough-storage dialog, and an activation-error
dialog. Activation is gated behind internet access (strings `settings_25``45`).
---
## 3. Home tab (`HomeFragment`) — `fragment_home.xml`
The dashboard / device hub. Two visual states:
### 3.1 Disconnected state
- Title bar: device-name placeholder + a **"Guide"** button (`home_16`,
top-right, primary pill).
- Centered illustration + **"Connect"** call-to-action → navigates to
`DeviceSearchFragment` (BLE scan).
- `view_bg_home_disconnected` background shown.
### 3.2 Connected state
Top bar becomes a **device selector dropdown** (`tv_title` with
`drawableEnd icon_action_arrow_down`): tapping opens device switcher.
Below: device status card, then action entries.
Navigation actions declared on `navigation_device` (HomeFragment):
| Action | Destination | Meaning |
|--------|-------------|---------|
| `action_deviceFragment_to_deviceSearchFragment` | Device Search | Add/switch device |
| `action_homeFragment_to_locationFragment` | Location | Set GPS/observing site |
| `action_homeFragment_to_ScheduleFragment` | Schedule | Shooting plans list |
| `action_homeFragment_to_upgradeFragment` | OTA Upgrade | Firmware update |
| `action_homeFragment_to_scheduleDetailFragment` | Schedule Detail | Edit a plan |
| `action_homeFragment_to_helperFragment` | Helper | In-app guide |
| `action_homeFragment_to_webFragment` | Web | Embedded web content |
| `action_home_to_taskListFragment` | Task List | Task/creation jobs (`createType` arg) |
| `action_home_to_astroFitsFragment` | Astro FITS | View a FITS file (`filePath`) |
| `action_home_to_caliFrameListFragment` | Cali-Frame List | Manage calibration frames (`caliFrameType`, `cameraType`) |
So **Home is a launcher** into: connect, location, schedule, OTA, tasks,
cali-frames, help. The actual *shooting* is entered by tapping the connected
device card → launches `CaptureActivity`.
---
## 4. Device connection flow
A multi-step wizard (mostly bottom-sheet dialogs) living under
`navigation_device_connect` and friends.
```
DeviceSearchFragment (BLE scan, lists nearby scopes)
├─▶ DeviceConnectFragment (dialog) — enter device password
│ ├─ success → DeviceConnectSuccessFragment
│ ├─ wrong pwd → DeviceConnectPwdErrorAgainFragment
│ └─ upgrade needed → UpgradeReminderFragment → OTAUpgradeFragment
├─▶ WiFiListFragment (STA mode: scan Wi-Fi for the scope)
│ └─▶ StaInfoFragment (enter Wi-Fi password) → DeviceConnectFragment
├─▶ DeviceConnectManualFragment (manual IP entry)
├─▶ DeviceStaPwdFragment / DeviceStaConnectFailedFragment
└─▶ DeviceResetTutorialFragment / DeviceConnectFailedFragment
```
Key strings reveal the model:
- **Connection modes** (`settings_connection_1421`):
- **Auto (Recommended)** — auto-choose AP vs STA.
- **STA mode** — phone & scope join the same home Wi-Fi (scope gets internet).
- **AP mode** — connect directly to the DWARF hotspot (outdoor/no-Wi-Fi).
- **Wi-Fi Compatible Mode** + **Enable 2.4GHz** toggles for region/legacy fixes.
- **Region** setting (`settings_connection_10`) — country code for Wi-Fi regs.
- **Activate Wi-Fi at Startup** — auto-enable hotspot on boot.
- Device password screen distinguishes **default password** vs custom
(`isDefaultPwd` arg → `DevicePasswordFragment`).
`DeviceSearchFragment` args: `type` (0 = first connect, 1 = add another),
`deviceName` (nullable, for reconnect). Result carries a `DeviceInfo`
(`com.convergence.dwarflab.net.discovery.DeviceInfo`) containing BLE-resolved
IP/SSID/PSK (see API_REFERENCE §2.1 for the BLE `DwarfEcho` payload).
---
## 5. Capture screen (`CaptureActivity`) — the shooter
This is the most complex screen (~9200 lines). Landscape-oriented camera
viewfinder with overlaid controls. Layout: `activity_capture.xml`.
### 5.1 Layout regions
```

```
### 5.2 Left control panel (`view_capture_left_control_panel.xml`, 48dp wide)
Vertical icon stack, top→bottom:
| id | icon | action |
|----|------|--------|
| `iv_photography_cancel` | arrow-left | **Back** (exit capture) |
| `iv_photography_pip` | pip icon | **Toggle PIP** (picture-in-picture wide inset) |
| `iv_photography_more_feature_set` | (dynamic) | **More settings** (opens `CamMoreFeatureSetDialog`) |
| `iv_photography_guide` | question-circle | **Guide/help** (hidden by default) |
| `iv_open_album` | album icon | **Open Album** (jump to gallery) |
| `ivClearAll` | clear-all | **Clear** (reset selection/overlay) |
### 5.3 Right control panel (`view_capture_right_panel.xml`, 84dp wide)
Vertical stack:
| id | label | icon | action |
|----|-------|------|--------|
| `btn_focus_view_capture_right_panel` | **Focus** (`camera_general_2`) | `icon_function_main_focus` | Open focus controls (AF, manual, astro-AF) |
| `item_main_capture_button_view` | — (76dp circular) | dynamic | **Main shutter** (see §5.5) |
| `btn_parameter_view_capture_right_panel` | **Parameter** (`camera_astro_222`) | `icon_function_general_parameter` | Open `CamParameterSetDialog` (exposure/gain/WB/ISP) |
`ZoomLensPanel` sits just left of the right panel (zoom/crop-ratio control).
### 5.4 TechniqueBar (top-right) — mode selector
A pill that shows the current **ShootingModeType** + **ShootingTech** and a
right-side action (`RightActionType`). Tapping opens
`ShootingModeSelectDialog` to pick a mode.
**`ShootingModeType`** (the "scene"/target class) — `ShootingModeType.java`:
| value | name | notes |
|-------|------|-------|
| 1 | `NORMAL` | generic |
| 2 | `DSO` | deep-sky object (needs calibration + EQ) |
| 3 | `SUN_MOON` | solar/lunar |
| 4 | `MILKY_WAY` | Milky Way wide-field |
| 5 | `STAR_TRAIL` | star-trail time accumulation |
| 6 | `AUTO_TRACKING` | generic object tracking |
| 7 | `PANORAMA` | panorama/grid capture |
| 8 | `SUN` | sun (ND filter warning!) |
| 9 | `MOON` | moon |
| 10 | `PLANET` | planetary |
| 0 | `UNKNOWN` | default |
Each mode carries flags: `isWidePreviewOnly`, `isWidePreviewSuggested`,
`isPipWindowBtnEnable`, `isHidePip`, `isViewRectangleVisible`,
`isAddQuickSet`, `cameraType` (Tele/Wide), `shootingTech`,
`isAstroFocus`, `isShowAutoFocusSwitch`, `isSunOrMoon`, `isLongTouchStop`,
`isSolarSystem`, `isShowZoomLens`, `isEnterAtlasVisible`, `isEnableCurves`,
`isAreaFocusEnable`. These drive which UI controls are visible.
**`ShootingTech`** (the capture technique) — `ShootingTech.java`:
| value | name | UI ring style |
|-------|------|---------------|
| 0 | `UNKNOWN` | — |
| 1 | `SINGLE_SHOT` | single photo |
| 2 | `STACKING` | live-stacking (astro) |
| 3 | `BURST` | burst |
| 4 | `VIDEO` | video record |
| 5 | `TIMELAPSE` | timelapse |
| 6 | `PANORAMA` | panorama/grid |
**`RightActionType`** (what the TechniqueBar's right button does):
`NORMAL, FOCUS, PARAMETER, TECHNOLOGY, TECHNOLOGY_SETTING, MODE, LongPressStop`.
### 5.5 Main capture button (`MainCaptureButtonView`)
A 76dp circular shutter whose appearance is driven by **`CaptureState`**
(`CaptureState.java`) and the current `ShootingModeType`/`ShootingTech`.
States include:
`None, PreparingAstronomyDarkFrame, RawDarkTaking, RawDarkStopping,
RawDarkStopped, RawTaking, RawStopping, GoLive, AIEnhance, AIEnhanceStopping,
PanoramaTaking, PanoramaStopping, RecordTaking, RecordStopping, …`
Behavior:
- **Tap** → start capture (photo/burst/stack/record depending on tech).
- **Long-press** → stop (`isLongPressTriggered`; shows `item_long_press_stop`
pill "Long Press to Stop" / `camera_general_153`, then "Stopping…").
- Ring/teeth animations reflect exposure countdown (`ShootingProgressView`)
and long-exposure progress (`NotifyProto.LongExpPhotoProgress`).
### 5.6 Joystick (`PolarDpadJoystickView`, 258dp)
Bottom-left polar D-pad for manual slewing. Sends
`CMD_STEP_MOTOR_SERVICE_JOYSTICK` (14006) with `vector_angle`/`vector_length`.
Has low/high speed indicators and four directional triangle overlays.
### 5.7 Overlays (z-ordered by elevation)
| Widget | elevation | purpose |
|--------|-----------|---------|
| `TrackBoxView` (tele + wide) | 4dp | tracking bounding-box overlay |
| `PreviewBorderView` | — | PIP border / crop frame |
| `ShootingProgressView` (main + minor) | 1dp | exposure countdown ring/text |
| `FocusProgressLayout` | 3dp | autofocus sweep overlay |
| `StopProgressLayout` | 3dp | stop-in-progress overlay |
| `CaptureStatusLayout` | 3dp | status HUD (bottom-center) |
| `FullscreenProgressLayout` | 4dp | full-screen progress (calibration, GoTo) |
| `CaliFrameProgressLayout` | 4dp | calibration-frame progress |
| `PanoCompositionLayout` | 30dp (top) | panorama composition canvas |
| `ParameterIndicatorBar` / `DeviceIndicatorBar` | 1dp | bottom status chips |
### 5.8 Sky-finder / Milky-Way action rows (top-right & bottom-center)
- `item_action_sky_finder`: calibration icon, AR-toggle, exit — for the
Sky-Target-Finder / AR overlay mode (`CMD_ASTRO_START_SKY_TARGET_FINDER`).
- `item_action_milky_way`: "Locate Milky Way" (`camera_astro_419`) +
"Confirm" (`camera_astro_412`) pills — Milky Way composition helper.
- `flGoComposition`: "GoTo" composition pill (`camera_pano_52`) for panorama
framing.
### 5.9 Key dialogs launched from Capture
| Dialog | Trigger | Purpose |
|--------|---------|---------|
| `ShootingModeSelectDialog` | TechniqueBar tap | Pick ShootingModeType |
| `CamModeSelectDialog` | mode button | Pick ShootingTech (photo/video/stack/…) |
| `CamParameterSetDialog` / `CamParamSetVM` | Parameter button | Exposure/Gain/WB/ISP per camera |
| `CamMoreFeatureSetDialog` | left "more" icon | Extra feature toggles |
| `PenalSetDialog` | panel button | Side-panel config |

| `BottomTipDialog` / `TipDialog` / `MessageDialog` | various | Tips & confirmations |
---
## 6. Settings tab (`SettingsFragment`) — `fragment_settings.xml`
A single `RecyclerView` whose rows are built programmatically in
`SettingsFragment.java` (grouped sections). Title: "Settings" (`settings_1`).
### 6.1 Top-level rows (from nav actions on `navigation_settings`)
| Row (string) | Destination fragment |
|--------------|----------------------|
| Profile / Login-Register | `ProfileFragment` / `LoginRegisterFragment` |
| **My Device** (`settings_2`) | `MyDeviceFragment` |
| **Connection Settings** (`settings_3`) | `ConnectionSettingsFragment` |
| **Advanced Settings** (`settings_4`) | `AdvancedFragment` |
| **Location** (`settings_5`) | `LocationFragment` |
| **General** (`settings_6`) | `GeneralFragment` |
| **Voice Assistant** | `VoiceAssistantFragment` |
| **Support** (`settings_7`) | `SupportFragment` |
| **About** (`settings_9`) | `AboutFragment` |
| Clear Cache (`settings_8`) | (action, no nav) |
### 6.2 My Device (`MyDeviceFragment`) sub-tree
- Device name → `DeviceNameFragment` (edit name; also triggers NFC update).
- Device password → `DevicePasswordFragment` (change pwd; `isDefaultPwd` flag)
→ `DeviceResetFragment` (factory reset).
- **NFC Update** (`settings_64`) → `NfcWriteActivity` — hold phone near ring light.
- **Activation info** → `ActivateInfoFragment` (status, time, warranty).
- **Storage** → `StorageFragment` (total/available size args).
- Firmware/OTA — reuses `OTAUpgradeFragment`.
### 6.3 Connection Settings (`ConnectionSettingsFragment`)
Toggles + radio (strings `settings_connection_129`):
- **Connection mode**: Auto / STA / AP (radio).
- **Activate Wi-Fi at Startup** (switch).
- **Enable 2.4GHz**, **Wi-Fi Compatible Mode** (switches).
- **Region** → `RegionSettingsFragment` (country code).
- Configure STA network → `WiFiListFragment` → `StaInfoFragment`/`StaInfoSetFragment`.
### 6.4 General (`GeneralFragment`) sub-tree
- **Language** → `LanguageSettingsFragment`.
- **Temperature unit** → `TemperatureUnitFragment`.
- **Appearance / Dark mode** → `AppearanceFragment`.
- **Image correction** → `ImageCorrectionFragment` → list (`ImageCorrectionListFragment`) → item (`ImageCorrectionListItemFragment`) + helper.
- **Floating window** → `FloatingWindowFragment`.
- **Calendar** (dialog) → `CalendarFragment`.
- **Auto-stop duration** → `AutoStopDurationFragment`.
- **Emotion / voice** → `EmotionFragment`, `EmotionScaleFragment`, `SpeechRateFragment`, `VoiceTypeFragment`, `VoiceNavigationModeFragment`.
- **Upload log / Log type** → `UploadLogFragment`, `LogTypeFragment`.
### 6.5 Advanced (`AdvancedFragment`)
Device-level toggles: master lock, MTP mode, CPU mode, low-temp protection,
lens defog, auto-cooling, auto-shutdown (the `CMD_SYSTEM_*` / `CMD_DEVICE_*`
commands). Shows `layout_advanced_settings_unavailable.xml` when the connected
device/firmware doesn't support an option.
### 6.6 Support / About
- **Support** (`settings_7`): FAQ/web links, contact `support@dwarflab.com`,
log upload.
- **About** (`settings_9`): app version, OSS notice
(`site.dwarflabapp.com/app-about/open-source-software-android`), privacy &
terms (en/zh).
---
## 7. OTA / firmware upgrade flow
```
UpgradeReminderFragment (dialog: "new firmware available")
└─▶ OTAUpgradeFragment (download + apply)
└─▶ WiFiConnectFragment (dialog, if scope needs Wi-Fi for download)
```
- Args: `ssid`, `psd`, `isStaMode` — the scope may need to join Wi-Fi to fetch
the firmware; the app drives this via BLE (`ReqSta`) then polls download
progress.
- Firmware download URL:
`https://dwarflab.com/pages/dwarflab-app-firmware-download`.
- `FirmwareForceUpdateDialog` blocks the app if firmware is too old for a
required feature (e.g. astrophotography — see `camera_astro_116`).
---
## 8. Schedule / shooting-plan flow
```
HomeFragment
└─▶ ScheduleFragment (list of plans)
├─▶ ScheduleDetailFragment (edit one plan; add targets, set params)
│ └─▶ ScheduleErrorReasonFragment (if sync fails) [args: reason]
└─▶ (sync/lock/unlock/delete via ScheduleProto cmds 1610016108)
```
- A plan = a timed shooting session with one or more targets, per-camera
params, and a date/time window (sunset→sunrise auto-calculated from Atlas).
- Plans can be **locked** (16107) so they reserve their time slot; unlocking
(16106) frees it.
- "Add to Schedule" (`camera_general_113`), "Date of Plan"
(`camera_general_114`), and the 12-hour-ahead sync limit
(`camera_general_118`) are key UX constraints.
---

(Chinese `values-zh`, etc.). All user-visible text is keyed
(`camera_astro_N`, `camera_general_N`, `settings_N`, `home_N`,
`settings_connection_N`, `album_N`, `guide_N`…).
- Help docs link to language-specific URLs:
`https://help.dwarflab.com/en` vs `/zh`.

## 12. Suggested reimplementation plan (cross-platform)
1. **Screens to build first** (MVP): Splash → Home (connect CTA) →
DeviceSearch (BLE) → DeviceConnect (password) → Capture (preview + shutter
+ params + joystick) → Settings (My Device + Connection).
2. **State model**: a single `DeviceStore` (connected? device_id, ip, cameras
on/off, current ShootingModeType/Tech, CaptureState, live params) fed by
the WebSocket NOTIFY stream (§API_REFERENCE §3.2). All UI reads from this.
3. **Capture screen** is the hard part — replicate the overlay z-order
(§5.7) and drive the capture button from `CaptureState`.
4. **Two preview surfaces** (Tele main + Wide PIP) each need an RTSP
consumer; toggle PIP via `CMD_SWITCH_MAIN_PREVIEW` (14809).
5. Keep the **mode-driven visibility** model: each `ShootingModeType` flag
(`isWidePreviewOnly`, `isAstroFocus`, `isShowZoomLens`…) controls which
controls render — don't hardcode per-screen logic.
