Select Route to Display

Background

  • When viewing the project overview listed by application, the console displays a route associated with each application.
  • In cases where an application has more than one route, the console will display what it believes to be the main route based on scoring criteria.
  • It is possible the console may not choose what the user considers to be the main route.
  • This design allows a user to choose the route to display in the overview.

Design

change route action

  • For applications that have more than one route associated with them, a pencil icon pficon-edit appears to the right of the displayed route.

change route action hover

  • The icon should be color #252525 by default and #0088ce on hover.
  • Also on hover, a tooltip gives gives the user more information about the action, e.g. “Choose a different route to display for this application.”

change route dialog

  • Clicking the pencil icon brings up a modal dialog with the instruction “Choose route to display for application [application-name].”
  • The URLs for routes associated with that application are enumerated and are selectable via radio button.
  • The radio button for the currently displayed route should be selected by default.
  • “Save” is the main action and “Cancel” is a secondary action.

Implementation Details

  • Selecting a route through the console, as described previously would change the route only on a per user, per browser basis. Other users would not be affected by this change.

Primary Route Annotation

  • Template authors may add an optional annotation to a route to designate it as primary.
  • An annotated primary route would take precedence over the route scoring performed by the console.
  • However, a route chosen by a user through the UI would take precedence over the annotated route.
  • If multiple routes have the primary annotation, route scoring will determine which to display.
