Thanks Mark, Arvind & team for the work on Dashboard! Apologies that I just
got around to reviewing the blueprint. This should provide us with a great
demo vehicle for the upcoming OpenStack Design Summit!
The initial mocks look good for our Quantum Beta, I just have a few comments
around our interactions design scheme that would good to address for our
first cut.
1) Networks Tab
- I suggest renaming "Delete?" to "Actions" - Much more consistent with
rest of dashboard as well as provides the flexibility to have multiple
actions grouped here under a single tab, obviously if we have too many
actions, we'll have to evolve the UI at a later point.
- Keep the existing "delete" link, and in the future we add more links.
2) Network details page
- Need a mechanism to go back to the network listing page ( You can
always click on "Networks" on left hand menu bar, but it isn't very
intuitive, we might have a link on top( like breadcrumbs) that would be
helpful...
3) Ports page
- Rename "Connects" to Attachment
- Merge Attach, Detach, Delete? columns to "Attach" to make the table
more consistent with rest of dashboard.
* That would make us more consistent with Images, Keys and general
dashboard user interaction model. But, I am open to other suggestions.
* The column contents would look like this:
[Interface drop down] Attach Detach Delete
* The links will be grayed out based on the operation the user is
allowed to perform, delete operation on already attached port will detach
and then delete the port automagically.
Otherwise, I am looking forward to the dashboard stuff completing soon!
Thanks,
Somik
