Showing download progress and overall progress

Open Nodd opened this issue 10 years ago • 3 comments

Showing download progress for each package and overall progress (in 2 status bars) would really help for knowing what happens. Right now the status bar changes flicks between a real progressbar and a progress bar with unknown progress (going continuousely from left to right).

Two status bars seems like too much for my taste....

Not sure about it either but conda-manager is definitely lacking feedback about what is happening on the user's harddrive. I personally prefer having access to the stdout of the process, this is another option.

Some package manager have a separate progressbar for each package, like ninite (and at least another that I can't remember from the top af my head).

Hmmm any solution to this problem will require major work, like displaying progress inline (inside the table view). The fastest would probably be getting the stdout output of conda.

Conda is not very good at giving you overall feedback, it gives feedback based on steps, download, link unlink etc... but there is no Global sequence of steps so that at least we could know on what overall step conda is currently in.
