Update RaceTab and lapdata to use timescale

[alexwhelan12]

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Refactor

  • Lap data now uses a flattened field structure for consistency across the app, aligning displayed lap values.

• UI Changes

  • Table cell layout updated with sticky positioning and improved padding for more stable column visibility.

• Behavior

  • Default table sorting now uses the TimeStamp field for initial ordering.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR flattens lap data from a nested data object to top-level fields (e.g., TimeStamp, AmpHours, LapTime, TotalPowerIn/Out, NetPowerOut) and updates all consumers: shared types, server emission, client store, table config, and UI components to the new shape.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Shared Types packages/shared/src/types.ts	Replace nested data object with flat top-level lap fields (AmpHours, AveragePackCurrent, AverageSpeed, BatterySecondsRemaining, Distance, EnergyConsumed, LapTime, NetPowerOut, TimeStamp, TotalPowerIn, TotalPowerOut) for ILapData and IFormattedLapData.
Server — Lap emission packages/server/src/controllers/LapController/LapController.ts	Construct and emit/insert lap objects using the new flat fields; docs updated from DynamoDB → TimescaleDB; removed legacy nested data wrapper.
Client — Store & formatting packages/client/src/stores/useLapData.ts	formatLapData now outputs flat top-level fields (rounded numeric values); removed nested data and timestamp; fetchLapData formats laps before setting state; setLapData removed from public state.
Client — Table & UI packages/client/src/components/config/lapTableConfig.ts, packages/client/src/components/tabs/RaceTab.tsx, packages/client/src/components/molecules/RaceTabMolecules/RaceTabTable.tsx	Updated column accessors from "data.X" to "X" (e.g., TimeStamp), adjusted default sort key to TimeStamp, removed fetchLapData from destructuring, and fixed a td className to include sticky/layout classes.

Flattened fields now greet the sky.
TimeStamp sits proud at the top, you see —
AmpHours, LapTime, and friends run free.

11-38: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

TimeStamp sorting relies on hardcoded date format parsing.

The custom sortingFn parses dates assuming a specific format (MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM) that matches toLocaleString("en-US") output. However, toLocaleString("en-US") actually produces format like "1/31/2026, 3:05:08 PM" which includes:

• Commas
• AM/PM indicator
• Seconds

The current parser will fail or produce incorrect results with this format.

🐛 Proposed fix using Date constructor directly

     sortingFn: (rowA, rowB, columnId) => {
-      const parseDate = (dateString: string) => {
-        const parts = dateString.split(" ");
-
-        const dateParts = parts[0]?.split("/");
-        const timeParts = parts[1]?.split(":");
-
-        if (!dateParts || !timeParts) {
-          throw new Error("Invalid Time");
-        }
-        const hour = Number(timeParts[0]);
-        const minute = Number(timeParts[1]);
-
-        const day = Number(dateParts[1]);
-        const month = Number(dateParts[0]);
-        const year = Number(dateParts[2]);
-        return new Date(year, month - 1, day, hour, minute).getTime();
-      };
-      const dateA = parseDate(rowA.getValue(columnId));
-      const dateB = parseDate(rowB.getValue(columnId));
+      const dateA = new Date(rowA.getValue(columnId)).getTime();
+      const dateB = new Date(rowB.getValue(columnId)).getTime();

       return dateB - dateA;
     },

Remove or repurpose the unused LapData class.

The LapData class is exported but never imported or instantiated anywhere in the codebase—it appears to be dead code. All active usage is of the ILapData interface instead. Additionally, there are naming inconsistencies between the class (camelCase: timestamp, lapTime, etc.) and the interface (PascalCase: TimeStamp, LapTime, etc.), and field mismatches (lapNumber and lapsRemaining exist only in the class; Rfid exists only in the interface).

Either remove the class if it's no longer needed, or if it's intended for future use, align it with ILapData to prevent confusion.

In `@packages/client/src/components/molecules/RaceTabMolecules/RaceTabTable.tsx`:
- Line 53: In the RaceTabTable component update the JSX className string (the
className prop that includes `${cell.id.includes("TimeStamp") ? "left-0 z-10" :
""}`) to fix the typo by replacing "w-fullpx-4" with two separate Tailwind
classes "w-full px-4" so the utility classes are correctly parsed.

19-19: Consider making locale configurable for internationalization.

The hardcoded "en-US" locale may not be appropriate for all users. If internationalization is planned, consider using the user's browser locale or a configurable setting.

TimeStamp: new Date(lapPacket.TimeStamp).toLocaleString(),
