vm portal UI redesign -- weekly report
Hi,
Note: A team is working on redesigning the UI of vm portal. This is the
first edition of my weekly status report on this project.
[tl;dr pretty screens:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-design/pull/6]
project book: n/a (using github issues [1] and ovirt-design [2])
trello: none
(Note: we have been using a google doc [3], but because it's not publicly
visible upstream, we are transitioning to github [2].)
Status:
* last week we iterated on Jenny's design updates.
* Tomas posted a patch to give us everything needed in the API.
* The inline edit page is very close to final UI.
* Liz is beginning interaction design on Add VM.
* Current designs a missing the network graph -- that can come back. It
should look identical to the CPU and Memory, a single total Bandwidth. So
three pies.
* 'Other OS' icon looks awesome but will neutralize the color (gray)
* change 'asleep' --> 'suspended'
* Marek + Bohdan + Scott are now coding.
* Scott can begin immediately with cards that talk to the stats service,
and probably others, and will demo a prototype this week
*Action items*
*Scott*: prototype of the VM details page
- functioning CPU, Memory, and Network cards
- and as much as possible of everything else :)
*Jenny*:
- confirmation popups for 'Remove' VM and other actions (ask Marek / Scott
for all such actions -- stop, force stop, delete, others?)
- console dialog (console options, edit connection type)
- options dialog (ssh key)
- add a network card, connect it to a network (just a listbox)
- button bar changing when VM is in different states
- add disks
- create snapshot
- gray the Other OS icon
*Liz*:
- new VM flow (could feature explode -- may want to mimic cockpit's design)
*Marek / Bohdan*:
- continue coding / creating github issues
