[Geoserver-users] web admin behaviour for styles and layers edits

Hi Users,

I created an issue for a 'feature request' which in short means:
- when editing a style or layer in the Geoserver Web administration
webpages, after the 'submit' can we please go back to the same style or
layer you just edited.

In my experience I need to fix at least two times, when I'm busy with
layers or styles. But that means that after every submit of a style
page, (and seeing in my viewer that my edit was not 100% ok yet), that I
have to use the seach again to find my editing style and click on the
result line again (a lot of layers and styles here)...

Anybody else experiences this? If so please discuss here, or add a
comment at:
https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-7461

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde

I agree it’s pretty annoying (and believe many share this opinion).
We’d just need to find funds to fix it.

Cheers
Andrea

When I'm editing a style and checking the result I simply press Alt+left on the style page to go back to the style. Returning directly after Submit could be quite annoying, especially on the layer page (I don't think Ive ever wanted to go straight back to the same layer after changing it). What would be nice though is any filter or pagination selection was remembered when you are returned the list, but never found it annoying enough to try fixing.

Ah ok, that is already at least two people :slight_smile:

I'm not sure how difficult it is (using Wicket I mean), that is actually
the mean reason of my question: is current status just because nobody
else sees this as a problem, or did somebody already invest a lot of
time into it but just did not succeed yet...

We could maybe implement it as two buttons:
- submit and come back here (taking current url?)
- submit and go to list
But maybe this is just to simple thinking...

Regards,

Richard

That brings you back to the 'old version' of your style (I just
checked). This just takes the old cached version of the page, containing
the sld version BEFORE I just submitted (at least here in
Firefox/Windooz I just checked)

That's no good then. Does work for me however on chrome win+linux.

Hmm... it's more a matter of consistency, if we started doing it in one
page,
it would have to be done in all other list pages to have a consistent
experience.

Implementation wise it should not be too hard, GeoServerBasePage already
has a notion of source page to return to, but it's not used much.
And oh, that would probably make the current page links, which are
bookmarkable,
not bookmarkable anymore, e.g., the url would not be anymore something like:

http://

host>/geoserver/web/wicket/bookmarkable/org.geoserver.wms.web.data.StyleEditPage?5&name=burg

but some random url with strange params in it instead (autogenerated by
Wicket).

Then one would have to go and see if the documentation needs changing
because of
that (there might be some screenshot to update).

Andrea

Ideally it would be like the CSS style editing page with a map tab and a data tab?

Does anyone know how hard it would be to nick that code and add it to the SLD page?

Eh, I thought about it a few times... it's not so easy... that page has
several CSS specific
bits, it's not internaltionalized, the internal code surely could use some
love.
It's definitely doable, but it's more than a few hours imho.

And it may require a GSIP, since it would be a significant departure from
our current
UI scheme (the more so if one looks at replacing both the style list page
and the
editor page with that one page).

And of course, more doc updates :slight_smile:

I might be misunderstanding the question but I normally hit Validate (I think that is the name, not at my GeoServer at
the moment) to check the syntax.

This stays on the page.
