Request manager button should show a summary of the request statistics
uMatrix shows a graphical icon to indicate how many requests have been blocked / allowed.
The Request Manager button in gngr (on the top right side of the window) needs to show similar information. The user-interface of uMatrix seems fine to me, but I am open to other ideas as well.
uMatrix is constrained in its icon, because it's a plugin. However, we have more freedom to stylise the Request Manager in gngr.
Do you have someone working on this currently? If not I'd be willing to fork it and start working on this.
Hi @rugglcon, No one is working on this AFAIK. Please go ahead!
(Someone on IRC said they will take this up a month ago, but I haven't heard back from them yet.)
Sweet, do we just want a number showing the amount, or also a menu that shows the specific sites and cookies blocked?
@rugglcon To make things easy for development you could start off with a number. For example, a fraction showing accepted requests v/s total requests would be fine. It could look be shown like this: 5/10.
But we have the choice to make it more detailed in the next stage. Have you used uMatrix? It shows a thumbnail of the request matrix in a tiny icon. In gngr, we can afford to use more horizontal space and present the thumbnail in a more readable manner.
I haven't used it before, no, but that sounds good.
On a side note, for some reason when I try to build and run gngr, it gives me errors. I'm using Eclipse.

What sort of errors? Did you read this wiki page? Feel free to post details here or in chat. I am online in our gitter room as well as IRC room #gngr on freenode.
Yeah I followed the instructions there, but then when I tried to Run it there was no gngr option for launch configuration. The initial exception is ExceptionInInitializerError.

@rugglcon Slight error in the wiki; the name of the launch configuration should be gngrDev, not gngr. Do you see it? It should be under "Java application".
Yeah, it says access is denied in another exception. I'm not sure what to do to fix that.

@rugglcon I just pushed a commit to master branch which might fix that exception. It looks like this particular JDK + OS combination was not tested before. Let me know if it works for you.
So still getting errors, but they're different this time. I copied them below. Is this an issue with not being able to see files on my computer, and not with the loader itself?

No, this is a problem with gngr's security policy. We have kept it very conservative by default, and only expand it when needed. I am opening a new issue for this.
That makes sense. Well if that helped to discover an issue for potential Windows users I'm glad I could help, for now I have a Linux box I can do this on as well. I can start building it on there and let you know if there's anything else I find out.
Hello, It seems that this was building some momentum and has halted. I would like to take a crack at it. Any information would be great!
@JoshuaTPritchett Cool! Please go ahead. You can begin by displaying two numbers: requests that were allowed v/s total number of requests. The information should be available in the vicinity of the RequestManager class.
Unfortunately, I am very busy this week, so I can't guide you immediately. But feel free to ask questions and I will get to them eventually.
Excellent, I have some ideas of how to implement this feature, I will attempt tomorrow to get everything up and running on my Ubuntu instance, and make the required pull request.
Hello, I've noticed that this issue hasn't been closed yet. Do you still need someone to modify the request manager button so that it shows a summary of the request statistics?
Sorry about the radio silence, I'm a university student, so I've been busy with exams. You mentioned that I should be able to find the number of allowed requests and the number of total requests around request manager, do you know where, exactly? Because I can't seem to find those numbers.
No worries @behrens-web. As it happens I am also busy with other things this week, else would have jumped in to help you in detail.
All I can say for now is, the numbers may not be readily available. You might have to add a counter to keep track of requests as they get accepted / rejected inside the RequestManager.
I see, Does every task have to get accepted/rejected inside RequestManager? If so, does it happen inside isRequestPermitted? (I wanna make sure we're on the same page here.)
