Re: [Kimchi-devel] [RFC] [Wok] Feature: User Activity Log

Hi team, I've created two wireframes for the User Activity Log. One features the default jQuery Bootgrid with inline filter (I've changed the label to "filter" to match other screens and make it easier for the user to distinguish filter from search) and another one features the collapsed Advanced Search panel. For now I have used default text input fields but I believe we can change Requests and Plugins for select inputs (using Selectpicker). We can also use Typeahead.js when user starts typing the usernames and a Datepicker for Date. I was thinking for the Date column maybe we could use a date range instead of a single date search. In this case we would have another column in Advanced Search with another datepicker input (From - To approach). BTW, if User Activity Log screen will be a part of Wok, then what should the navbar look like when this page is active? Should we hide the navbar? Create another first-level element for this page? Display it next to User and Help drop-downs?

The plan is to have file size limit and log rotation. There are some logging facilities in Python which allow for that. -- Lucio Correia Software Engineer IBM LTC Brazil _______________________________________________ Kimchi-devel mailing list Kimchi-devel(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/kimchi-devel
