Gregory Joseph updated MAGNOLIA-1855:
-------------------------------------
Description:
At the moment, the only feedback the user gets, is the number of tasks that
have been executed, along with the eventual info, warn or error messages tasks
would yield, and that's refreshed every 3 seconds.
One of the frustrating things is that sometimes a save() operation (which
happens after each successful module install/update) can take more than a few
seconds, thus no progress is seen. Would be nice to send some feedback to the
user about this, either through the form a message ("currently saving...") or
some progress bar (eventhough afaik we have no way of knowing the actual
progress of a save operation)
Another thing which we need to handle properly are failing tasks and
exceptions. At the moment, the page keeps on refreshing itself, even if the
actual update mechanism has been interrupted. This should also help with having
tasks which fail on purpose, for instance if a restart is needed.
