Auto-Refresh for Cockpit?

Development
1

Hi,

I have a request to add auto-refresh to Cockpit. I suppose, it is simple to add it, but i wonder if it worthwhile doing so when the old Cockpit gets overhauled.

Would you suggest to add it to the legacy Cockpit? Or better wait and add it to the new one?

I am also bit worried that it is not included in Cockpit. It’s such an obvious feature, but nobody has added it, yet. Maybe it’s not that simple :grimacing:

Cheers,
Markus

Features like this could be added to the existing app. It will take a while until the new Cockpit is available. If you find other users that would like to have that feature the next thing would be to open a feature request and ideally provide a patch.

I would second that.

But also would add this as a feature request for the new web apps.

@Noordsestern do you want to raise the issue and describe it in detail?

Yes, I will do it.

Infact, @datakurre already implemented a prototype just now and added it to his collection of awesome operaton-cockpit-plugins :rocket:: operaton-cockpit-plugins/config.js at 7ca42dd58aa3c89cc4cd957de0a4bc78842b8b8a · datakurre/operaton-cockpit-plugins · GitHub

I will test it and add it as feature request to new webapps :slight_smile:
