"State-Editor Lite" Adapter (Minimal Footprint for slow connections)

Open Apollon77 opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

For slow connections Admin3 and also cloud pro Admin has too big footprint to be able to work with.

Idea is a "State-Editor" (searching, viewing, changing states) as minimalistic web-interface

I would really like to be able to use all of the states on my cell phone. The mobile adapter just doesn't work. I only see a white, blank page. The admin page crashes because I have too many data points.

Has the project started yet? Does anyone know of any other Workaround?

which are the requirements for such an adaptder should do? in react? with socketio?

there can be a dashboard area and a search area maybe such an adapter didnt request all datapoints at once. you can search hieraricaly from level to level an pin often used datapoints to the dashboard only state values can be edited, no datapoint configuration?

The idea is to have a small footprint, so if react (or others) it needs to use tree-shaking for the deps and as less as possible :-) Socket.io has the benefit that long polling is available as fallback if normal websocket do not work because of the connection But question is if it makes sense to use an "self defined lightweight" interface that only transports data that are needed - aso question is if "real time updates" are a feature (if shpuld be disabled by default and can be enabled or such). So maybe better a "reload mechanism which then c ollects changed data on server side and only transports them if needed.

Dashboard is a good idea and yes state values are enogh in my eyes.

But in fact thats just my opinion out of "I tried once to open admin from a mega low internet in turkey vacation" :-)

If this is really still a need, I suggest to add a issue at admin to provide a slim interface. I do not see any chance that a dedicated adapter will be created for this.

Feel free to reopen if you have opposite oppinion.
