Hello,
My idea is to have a refresh of the Commands page, with a code editor, who could colorize the command line, and could list or autocomplete in editor the resource and others Nagios Macros. This enhancement could improve the report creation of a command from the CLI on the poller to the Central with the Macro and Resources.
Other enhancement on the Host configuration and Service configuration, would be a better UI with the macro section, text is in very small fonts, and the input object are where restrictive, specially when we do add many EXTRAOPTIONS.
An another little touch of HTML5 in administration sections of Centreon
for my eyes because i have glasses #BanTheInputAndTextAreaObject 🤣
Â
To be compliant with the rules :
-
Persona : As a Centreon administrator
-
Problem to solve : Actually the command page provide a text area object to copy and paste command, who generally written on a terminal in poller. When we report the command we use (Resources, Nagios Macros, Custom Macros) because it’s a texte area, it’s not easy to rewrite the command, the textarea is resizable, but this is not very user friendly and you could forget characters of a macro like $, or just ‘ and “, and this UI is a little repulsive. Linked to the commands, the macro section of Host and Service have the same UI problem, with the input zone who don’t practical when you declare many options on EXTRAOPTIONS sections in particular.
-
Expected outcome : Modernize UI of administration section of Centreon, specially the Commands page, and the macro section of hosts and services with a JS editor code who could colorize code, verify syntax, and also by contextual menu display resource, nagios macro and other object who udes on a command. Samething with the macro section of Host or Service with a better UI object who allow a better usage of this paremeters
-
Potential solutions : A code editor who include all the sections of command page. Using others type of object more HTML5 for the Macro section of Host and Service.
