Motivation

Currently when the user is logged in, there is no success message to indicate the change. Also if the user fails to login, the app just displays no message. This keeps the user out of the loop of the authentication.

Modification

Add a snackbar component to display success and failure messages on Login.

Motivation

The users get logged out on page/app refresh. This adds the inconvenience of logging in again after every start.

Modification

Add Persistent login routing.

Motivation

The notification list is being rendered fine but one cannot scroll to the bottom of the list as the div above it blocks the scroll. This needs to be fixed for better functionality of the app.

Modification

Fix the scroll action for notifications and activity messages.

Motivation

Currently the RSE Expression is displayed as such with no pre-processing. This might cause the UI to break if RSE expression is too large. Hence it needs to be broken down accordingly and displayed in a better manner.

Modification

Enable parsing of RSE Expression and update the Rule Cards Component to support the same.

Motivation

There are a few more details which are often required by the users for the rules. Currently the rules just display basic info, there should be more info on them for better usability.

Modification

Make the Rule Cards more interactive by adding functionality to them to show more details.

Motivation

Currently the app supports single account for logging into multiple servers. But there can be different credentials for different servers for the same user.

Modification

The multi server support was added with #11 which now needs to be improved to support multiple accounts for multiple servers.
The UI needs improvement as well to allow ease of access of all the accounts for the user.

Motivation

The current version of the app polls the /rules API from Rucio server(s) every 20 mins. While this works fine, it needs improvement on the existing system so that information can be retrieved more "intelligently" and make the experience fluid.

Modification

Add support for an Intelligent system to retrieve rule info rather than a fixed polling system.

Motivation

After #17 is solved. The users will only be able to see the notifications when they open the app and not when the notification is pushed to the app.

Modification

Add native desktop notification support using ElectronJS IPC for a native app user experience.

Motivation

The status of transfers is shown in real-time (almost) but there is no log of when the transfer started and when it completed. Hence a good place to add these logs is the notifications tab which at the moment renders static content.

Modification

Add functionality to display notifications in the app for status of the rules.

Motivation

The app logs in the user and redirects fine, but the redirection is buggy and console logs some errors. The routing also does not render images, so that also needs a fix.

Modification

Fix the routing by refactoring the code and handling AUTH on frontend in a better way by storing states somehow.

Motivation

Currently the app supports only a single Rucio server but the FUSE module allows the user to mount multiple servers to their file system. The GUI app should align to the same practice for better integration of the both in the future.

Modification

Add support in the app server to support the authentication from multiple servers and handle the tokens for all those servers and provide a unified interface to display notifications from all the servers.

Motivation

Rucio Notifier is only just available for UNIX like operating systems, but its support can be extended to Windows systems also for regular clients.

Modification

• Add start scripts for Windows.
• Add Build Configuration for .exe and .msi for Windows targets.

Motivation

To promote contributions to this repository, it must have a CONTRIBUTION guide listing all the rules and steps to contribute.

Modification

Add a CONTRIBUTING.md file.

Motivation

Update the fonts to open-source font alternative like Inter

Modification

Update the fonts shipped with the release version of notifier.

Motivation

Currently the token in the app expires after one hour which forces the user to sign-in again. This flow shall be improved and the token must be refreshed after every hour (or when it expires) to ensure persistent login works correctly.

Modification

Add a side-effect which handles the Token Refresh in production and development builds of the application, preventing a forced logout for a user.
