add "save" button

[newton1985]

Long story short

It would be great to have a save button that allows data to be written to S3 without having to close the study. This would also provide users with quick feedback in case there is some issue communicating with storage.

Expected behaviour

I expect that clicking this button would cause the study data to be stored to S3, but without interrupting use of the study.

Actual behaviour

There is no save button (yet).

Steps to reproduce

n/a

Note: your environment was attached but will not be displayed

also, a save copy button complementing the save button would be nice.

if the concern is, that this could end up in too frequent data transfer, perhaps an intelligent save that only saves services in which the data has changed could be envisioned.

webbrowser

• click
• greys out the iframe

webserver

• POST /projects/{project_id}/nodes/{node_id}:save (long running task)

director-v2

• POST /v2/dynamic_services/{node_uuid}:save (long running task)
  • then calls the dynamic sidecar to pause (docker pause), save, resume (docker unpause) the service

Hi @sanderegg, from what I understood from PM1, this is not high priority for this sprint. I'll move it down in the PM2 board.

Related work is the new messaging from the backend to the frontend and that is also needed for s4l lite release, so I'll add that to the PM2 board (if I find the issue).

For the specifics of starting/stopping dynamic services, we should do more testing before if goes to production (I can help with that).

Hi @elisabettai , I created an issue and is now linked here:
ITISFoundation/osparc-simcore#3541

[sanderegg]

@newton1985 can we close this one?

[newton1985]

@sanderegg - do I understand correctly that we're dropping the request for this feature in favor of selective start/stop? Also, stopping a service triggers data transfer to storage, correct?

[GitHK]

When you stop the service, the service's state (usually the workspace) is transferred. All ongoing pending output ports are also waited to finish before closing.

[newton1985]

Ok, great then yes close this one.

[sanderegg]

@newton1985 as the owner of the issue you have the final say.
Stopping a service triggers full saving of the service, yes.

[KZzizzle]

Just wanted to chime in (since I followed this issue) that the new stop feature is super cool!
