| Issue 9: | Better scrolling text pane for console output and data refresh | |
| 1 person starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
Put console output in a scrolling text pane on job output page (so page length remains constant). Investigate simple JS components for this - needs to not fully redraw with each update. May need to offer a service that gets output from Meandre (only full output is retrievable) and converts into a stream. Store stream position so new output can be efficiently clipped to add to the stream.

I suspect user will need to review output in all running/finished/error states so full output needs to be avaialable at all times. However, while running it may be prudent to use a circular array (so say 1000 lines of scrollback are available). However, on completed runs (finished or error states) full output would be desirable and could be handled differently (particularly if it saves mem).

I am working on it. Currently, the console is in a textarea that takes the fixed size. Its refresh frequency decays over time. It is not ideal yet. I guess we can leave the problem of refresh to later when we convert all other parts in the page into AJAX and have a full approach of this in the whole page instead of patching this part alone.

This is mostly fixed, it needs an overhaul though. Would be much better once we move the calls to ajax, right now it's a mish-mash.
