Mute unmute history

Hi there,
About the mute and unmute transition, I extracted data from mute and unmute data_records, and ordered them in chronological order. And I found :

  1. For the same place we have successive mutes without unmutes between the mutes (the same thing happens with successive unmutes without mutes between them)

  2. Successive mutes/unmutes have the same day in the report_date, and there are intervals of a few minutes between them

We are interested in calculating the state (mute/unmute) of a given place from this ā€œhistory of eventsā€ on a given date, since we do not need to know the exact datetime, I do notconsider the sequence of successive mute except the first one, I do so the successive mute did not occur, since everything happens on the same day, I do not introduce any major error in the date only in the time.

I would like to understand how these successive mute occur in the same place:
maybe the user submits a mute form but it doesnā€™t change the state of the place and within minutes the user resends the mute form. I havenā€™t seen this behavior in the cht, when I send a mute form the place get muted
So i would like to have some help to understand how these successive mute occur.

Hey @bamatic ā€¦

Prior to 3.12, Muting was performed on the serverā€¦ so if an offline user submitted a mute or unmute report on their device, they wouldnā€™t actually see the affects until they synced that report up to the server, the server processed it, and they synced back down. Starting in 3.12, Muting and Unmuting are performed on-device for offline users.

In the sample you provided, all those Unmutes that happened within minutes of each other were from 2020. 3.12 was released on 28-July-2021 so hopefully you donā€™t see that issue happening after the date you updated to 3.12+.

The SQL below will tell you the version and time that each server upgrade started on your instance


SELECT
	doc#>>'{tombstone,build_info,version}' AS app_version,
	to_timestamp(((doc#>>'{tombstone,created}')::bigint / 1000)::double precision)::date AS upgrade_started
	
FROM
	couchdb
	
WHERE
	doc#>>'{tombstone,_id}' = 'horti-upgrade'
	AND doc->>'type' = 'tombstone'

Hi michael
Thank you very much for this information

3.15.0 2022-08-09
3.14.2 2022-07-29
3.13.0 2022-01-25
3.10.3 2021-03-24
3.4.1 2019-06-17
3.2.1 2019-06-17

So from 2022-01-25 I should not see this kind of muting repetition, and this is true.

Now Iā€™ve found 29 places from a total of about 3000 places having some anormal muting history, for example this place has this history obteined from data_records

And looking to the info doc with doc_id = ā€˜252506b5-c91f-4dd1-abcc-a7183558be6dā€™ I have that

Here we have that there are even some days difference between chw_are_unmute reported data_record date and info-doc ā€œmuting_history.dateā€
and two unmutes without a mute between them.
