fix(live): show the channel avatar on public live pages - #86
Merged
Conversation
The /l/<join_code> header credits a stream to its channel — the name it links is the channel's, falling back to the host profile only when the session has no channel. The avatar beside it did not follow that rule: it read profiles.avatar_url exclusively. Nothing in the app ever writes profiles.avatar_url. There is no profile avatar upload route or bucket, and the signup trigger only copies display_name, so the column is null for all 206 profiles. Every public live therefore rendered the grey placeholder, including streams whose channel had artwork uploaded. Return the channel's avatar from get_public_session and prefer it on the page, mirroring the precedence the name link already uses.

The bug
https://pairux.com/l/HRHGLU renders a grey placeholder where the streamer's avatar should be.
Root cause
The header on
/l/<join_code>credits a stream to its channel — the name it links ischannel_name, falling back to the host profile only when the session has no channel. The avatar beside it did not follow that rule:page.tsxreadsession.host_avatar_urlexclusively, whichget_public_sessionmaps toprofiles.avatar_url.Nothing in the app ever writes
profiles.avatar_url:/api/profilehas onlyusername)display_nameonly, never an avatarConfirmed in prod: 206 profiles, 0 with an avatar. So every public live page has been showing the placeholder, not just this one — including streams whose channel has artwork uploaded and serving fine.
For
HRHGLU, channel@moshcodinghas a valid avatar (200, 40KB JPEG) that the page simply never asked for.The fix
Return
ch.avatar_urlfromget_public_session(thechannelsjoin was already there, just unused for this) and prefer it on the page, mirroring the precedence the name link already uses. Hosts without a channel are unaffected and still fall back to the profile field.Deployment note
The migration is already applied to prod (ref
yuwjbjskkghlyrdkhexu) — this repo has no CI step that applies migrations, so merging alone would not have changed the database. The added column is additive, and the currently deployed page ignores it; verified the live page still returns 200 after applying. Merging this PR ships the page half.Verification
