Summary

  • Add openpanel-embed.js host script: auto-height for iframe[data-openpanel-embed] via postMessage (same idea as Plausible’s embed host)
  • Share overview/dashboard report height to the parent; Share Overview modal includes copyable embed snippet
  • Fix Radix dialogs when embedded: disable scroll-lock and pin overlay/content to the visible iframe slice (addresses the modal centering issue on Carl’s WIP)

Builds on the approach in upstream/feature/iframe-resize, without pulling in @iframe-resizer (license/weight).

Fixes #224

Test plan

  • Public share overview: copy embed code from Share modal, paste on a host page with the script → iframe grows with content
  • Scroll the host page and open an overview modal (e.g. top pages) → dialog appears in the visible area, page still scrolls
  • Same checks for share dashboard
  • Non-embed app dialogs unchanged
  • CI: embed-viewport unit tests pass

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for embedding shared overviews and dashboards in external pages.
    • Embedded content now automatically adjusts its height and responds to viewport changes.
    • Dialogs display correctly within embedded views without interfering with host-page scrolling.
    • Added an iframe testing route for embed previews.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved feedback when copying embed code fails.
    • Corrected viewport handling when embedded content is fully outside the visible area.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for embedded viewport calculations and content-height measurement.

Ship openpanel-embed.js (Plausible-style height sync via postMessage) for
share overview/dashboard embeds, and pin Radix dialogs to the visible
iframe slice so they no longer center mid-document or lock parent scroll.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds iframe height reporting, viewport messaging, embedded dialog positioning, shared-route integration, and an /iframe-test route that loads the public embed script.

Changes

Embedded share support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Viewport utilities and height reporting
apps/start/src/utils/embed-viewport.ts, apps/start/src/utils/embed-viewport.test.ts, apps/start/src/hooks/use-embed-viewport.ts, apps/start/src/hooks/measure-embed-content-height.test.ts
Adds visible-slice calculations, content measurement, resize acknowledgements, retry handling, and regression tests.
Host embed protocol
apps/start/public/openpanel-embed.js
Initializes marked iframes, applies reported heights, acknowledges resize messages, answers viewport requests, and broadcasts viewport updates.
Embedded rendering and shared routes
apps/start/src/components/ui/dialog.tsx, apps/start/src/routes/share.dashboard.$shareId.tsx, apps/start/src/routes/share.overview.$shareId.tsx
Uses iframe viewport data for dialog overlays and content positioning. Shared routes report embed height and mark their content roots.
Iframe test route and registration
apps/start/src/routes/iframe-test.tsx, apps/start/src/routeTree.gen.ts
Adds an iframe test harness and registers /iframe-test in the generated route tree.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to e3328

Embedded dashboards and share overviews report iframe sizing and adapt dialogs to the visible embed area. The current change adds coverage for the no-DOM measurement path, with no remaining concrete merge-blocking risk identified.

In `@apps/start/src/components/ui/dialog.tsx`:
- Line 18: Update the DialogPrimitive.Root configuration and overlay rendering
so embedded dialogs retain a backdrop even when modal is false. Ensure the
embedded overlay is rendered outside DialogPrimitive.Overlay or otherwise
preserved without scroll locking, while keeping the existing behavior for
non-embedded dialogs.

In `@apps/start/src/hooks/use-embed-viewport.ts`:
- Around line 83-85: Update the content-height measurement in the embed viewport
hook to use a content element independent of the iframe viewport instead of
document.documentElement.scrollHeight. Preserve the existing body-height
fallback and max-height behavior so the iframe can shrink when rendered content
becomes shorter.
- Around line 87-90: Update useReportEmbedHeight so the initial resize message
is retried or acknowledged until openpanel-embed.js has received it, ensuring
late listener startup cannot leave the iframe at its default height. Keep the
existing resize payload and stop retries once acknowledgement or successful
initialization is confirmed.

In `@apps/start/src/modals/share-overview-modal.tsx`:
- Around line 98-101: Update the embed-copy handler around
navigator.clipboard.writeText to await the clipboard promise and handle
rejection before setting copiedEmbed or showing the success toast; only update
the copied state, timeout, and success notification after a successful write.

In `@apps/start/src/utils/embed-viewport.ts`:
- Around line 38-43: Update the viewport geometry calculation to return
visibleHeight as 0 when the iframe is fully outside the parent viewport,
removing the fallback that substitutes a positive height; also clamp visibleTop
to rect.height. Add regression tests covering fully-above and fully-below iframe
positions.

Keep a custom backdrop when modal is false, measure content root height
(with ack/retry), and harden clipboard + off-screen viewport handling.

Addressed the CodeRabbit findings:

  1. Dialog backdrop — custom overlay when modal={false} (Radix drops DialogOverlay otherwise)
  2. Height measurement — measure [data-openpanel-embed-root] instead of documentElement.scrollHeight so the iframe can shrink
  3. Resize race — host sends resize-ack + request-resize; guest retries until ack
  4. Clipboard — await writeText and show an error toast on failure
  5. Off-screen viewport — keep visibleHeight: 0 (no positive fallback); tests added

- Line 59: Update measureEmbedContentHeight to guard for a DOM-supported

existing null-root fallback that returns 0. Ensure the HTMLElement check is only
reached when the global DOM constructor is available.

Check document before instanceof HTMLElement so SSR/no-DOM call sites
return 0 instead of throwing ReferenceError.

Call with no argument so the no-DOM default root selection is covered.

Addressed CodeRabbit: measureEmbedContentHeight() is now called with no args so the default no-DOM path is exercised.
