[orion-dev] progress service - meeting mintes
|
- We could call it "status service" rather than a "progress service"
because we don't necessary need progress information, but status: running,
finished
- There are two kind of tasks
- "global tasks" - tasks that need to finish, they may be interesting
for pages other than page that started them: git clone, compile etc
- "page tasks" - tasks that are interested only for the page that
started them: listing files, git log etc
- All asynchronous operations could be considered as "page tasks", we could
use dojo.Deferred to track them
- Client should decide in the scope of the operation (global task or page
task)
- What about tasks that says "runnig" for 10 days? Should we have a timeout
after which we say we don't track the task any more, because it probably
hanged and we don't care for it any more?
- We could provide a cancellation or "cancellation with forget" - meaning
we don't want to here about this task any more
- Should we get rid of old tasks after some time?
- We could create a "topic system" for tasks. Each task would have a list
of topics than it refers to. Pages could register for topics and display
progress of the topics they are interested in. They could also react for
completion of some of those tasks.
- Progress service should report errors of tasks
plans:
M1: all calls to progress service should be moved to plugin:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=365644
M1: a global list that gathers tasks from the servers
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=364987
Future (M2?)
List of tasks stored on the client site (local storage). This tasks list
could be listened by client pages to get updates for tasks they started and
tasks from topics they are interested in.
Tasks API (server):
