JBIDE-20100: Better integration of EA in user workflow #354
Conversation
|
what does "better" mean here? would be great if the commit message actually outlined the change(s) being made. |
|
Basically, it's just "Show EA connectors by default". Would it be OK? |
|
show EA connectors by default breaks the logic of what is in EA (i.e. angularjs exist in both) so I don't think that can be the only thing you did here ? |
|
What I did is explained in the Jira, however, I cannot make it fit in 80 characters, The core part of the contributions is that users can see EA content without having to having to enable anything. Everything else is adapting current UI and workflows to this approach. |
|
80 characters ? git commit messages can be multi-lined. The jira talks about 3 to 4 different ways and currently mainly focused about the About dialog so was not sure what this commit is covering. |
|
It's covering everything ;) I'll put more details in the commit message. |
|
More description added to commit message. |
|
@mickaelistria could you please attache (here or to JIRA) a screencast video or a bunch of screenshots how, for example, AngularJS installation will look like with this PR applied? |
|
Quick demo of how users are now facing Early-Access: https://vid.me/qPQz |
|
I like the idea how multiple versions IUs are handled but shouldn't we add descriptions of all the options (not just titles/names) to that dialog when you are selecting the regular/EA versions? |
|
Yes, ideally, I'd like to reuse the UI as it is shown on the Software/updates page. This is more a 1st increment to show/validate the workflow. |
|
Installation from central is a critical part of JBT/JBDS. And we are approaching CR1/GA release. I would like to see a complete PR with at least @maxandersen's and @fbricon's approval before we push anything to master. |
* Early Access connectors are shown by default (when no other version exists) * When connector exists in regular and EA version, show regular version, then ask user at install which one they actually want to install * Move control and overview on Early Access to an installation page, accessible from Software/Update page
|
The PR was updated to show same UI in selection pop-up (when relevant) than in the discovery viewer. |
|
Applied in master |
