Ticket

ldraney/landscaping-assistant#305 — Fix map directions link opening in-app instead of native Apple Maps. Merged via PR #319.

Environment

Production cluster, namespace landscaping-assistant, URL: https://landscaping-assistant.app

Tiers Executed

Tier 1 (CI tests) + Tier 3 (prod deployment verification). Labels: type:bug, arch:rails-app, arch:ios.

Checks

#	Criterion	How Verified	Result	Evidence
1	Tapping 'Directions' on iOS opens Apple Maps natively with correct location	Code review: <code>data: { turbo: false }</code> added to both Directions links in <code>show.html.erb</code> (lines 32, 58). Prevents turbo-ios from intercepting the link. Pattern matches established convention used by login, logout, and delete account links.	PASS	Diff: <code>data: { turbo: false }</code> added to both <code>link_to "Directions"</code> calls. Cannot verify on actual iOS device from this environment.
2	Link still works on web (opens Apple Maps in a new tab)	Code review: <code>target: "_blank"</code> and <code>rel: "noopener"</code> preserved. <code>data-turbo="false"</code> does not affect standard browser behavior for external links.	PASS	HTML attributes verified in source at lines 32 and 58 of <code>show.html.erb</code>
3	No regression on other navigation in the app	CI pipeline #839 passed all steps (clone, database, bundle-install, lint, test, build-and-push). Only 2 lines changed in 1 file. No model, controller, or route changes.	PASS	Woodpecker pipeline #839: all 6 steps success
4	Pipeline green	Woodpecker pipeline #839 (push to main) — all steps succeeded	PASS	Pipeline #839 status: success
5	Deployment live with correct image	<code>kubectl get pods</code> — pod running with image tag <code>a0baf9ca04aaa3fea2d5b259a9b325198c9abb76</code> matching merge commit	PASS	Pod: <code>landscaping-assistant-7d5669d55d-575pl</code>, 1/1 Running, 0 restarts, image tag matches commit <code>a0baf9c</code>
6	Health endpoint responds	<code>curl https://landscaping-assistant.app/up</code> returns 200	PASS	HTTP 200

Regression Check

Only app/views/properties/show.html.erb modified (2 lines changed, 2 insertions, 2 deletions)
Change is additive — adds one HTML data attribute per link. Cannot break existing behavior.
data: { turbo: false } follows the established pattern already used in sessions/new.html.erb (login), profile/index.html.erb (logout, delete account)
CI full test suite passed (pipeline #839, test step exit code 0)
Root URL returns 302 (expected auth redirect) — app is responsive

Limitations

Could not log into production web app for visual browser verification — test user lucas-admin rejected by Keycloak ("Invalid username or password"). Test credentials may have been rotated.
iOS-native behavior (opening Apple Maps) cannot be verified from a desktop environment. Requires physical iOS device or simulator. The data-turbo="false" attribute is the standard turbo-ios convention for external link handling.

Discovered Issues

Test user credentials (lucas-admin / Test1234!) appear invalid against production Keycloak. Credentials may need to be re-provisioned or documented with current values.
