ccpublisher User Interface

The user interface is reachable via browser, at the address http://<host>:9999

Notice that the port can be changed in the configuration file of the service.

The elements of the page are described as:

  • Project: name of the project. Only registered projects appear here (see Project setup)

  • MagicDraw: information about the last commit available for the MD resource

  • Cameo collaborator: information about the last commit for the CC resource

  • Template: which template will be used when publishing (see Project setup)

  • Publish: enqueue the publishing for the related project

  • Open: open the related Cameo collaborator resource in the browser

Publish a project

The Publish button has black outlines in case the CC resource is older than the MD one. In this case, publishing will publish the new changeset into the CC resource.

A grey outline indicates that the CC resource is newer than the MD one. The button can still be pressed in order to perform again the publishing.

When a publishing operation is carried on, the publish button shows a spinner:

Queue

Publishing resources is done serially so each request is put into a queue. The maximum number of jobs that can be enqueued are defined in the configuration. More here: ccpublisher service installation guide.

By switching pane on the UI, queue and log can be inspected:

  • Service state: whether the service is busy publishing or idle

  • Currently processing: shows which project is being currently published

  • Previous task: shows the previously published project

  • Queue: waiting publishing tasks are shown here

  • Magicdraw log: realtime stream of the log

The buttons allow to:

  • Terminate current task: if a task is running, terminate the publishing and proceed to the next (if any)

  • Remove enqueued tasks: cancel all the tasks pending in the queue

  • Rescan profiles: import all the projects that are configured and enabled. More here: Project setup

Rescanning the profiles might take long time. The interface refreshes automatically at the end of the process.
