info view: add task selection controls and enable workflow metadata

Open oliver-sanders opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Currently the "Info View" can open for a selected task, but you cannot change the task you are viewing from within the view.

This isn't a bit limitation, however, it might be a nice enhancement to allow the selected task to be changed from within the view (e.g. like we do in the "Log View").

Workflows can also have metadata, the "Info View" should be able to view this too (the log view has a Task/Workflow switch to do this).

Another related feature might be to list all (active?) instances of the task to allow you to easily access past/future instances.

This should also fix the long task name overflow (i.e. move away from using the GraphNode component to display the task name and jobs etc.) mentioned in https://github.com/cylc/cylc-ui/pull/1886#discussion_r1717282129

This doesn't require moving away from GraphNode (which I quite like as a task summary).

That image link doesn't work for me.

Fixed the image (GitHub JWT thingummy).

We can keep the task summary but the SVG format of GraphNode doesn't allow text wrapping
