Its not broken, just poorly worded. The idea is, you can select to install all components or individual components. Unless you select all components, the component selection prompt will be redisplayed until you finish up component selection by selecting 'none'. Perhaps instead of that workflow we should add an additional option such as 'finished' or similar. Thoughts? making sure all the bugs are at the right version for future queries Patch fixing wording sent to list https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/aeolus-devel/2011-December/007232.html Updated patch is now pushed https://github.com/aeolusproject/aeolus-configure/commit/5f58c68f844d08caa8647654603f4ea96976eecc Select Aeolus Components to Install 1. Select All Components 2. Finish Selection 3. Select Image Factory 4. Select Image Warehouse Install Aeolus Component: 3 3 and 4 returns to prompt , cannot be selected . Not quite sure if I'm following. Selecting 3,4 adds the component to the list to install and returns to this prompt so they can select the next component to install. Selecting 1,2 should finish prompting the user for components to install and move them onto the next prompt (setting up cloud providers). Again might just be a wording issue, if anyone has an alternate suggestion as how to better word this, feel free to share and I can implement. Else I believe the issue is resolved as is. this is horribly broken.. selecting 3 or 4 just reprompts the main menu.. It seems like the initial prompt is essentially acting as a way of accumulating choices the user has made and then eventually kicking off a puppet run. The flow is pretty confusing, and i"m not sure it is easily resolvable in the 1.0 timeframe. I think this is a good feature to continue working on in the upstream version but it probably makes more sense to remove the interactive functionality from 1.0 while working out a good workflow from the user experience point of view. (In reply to comment #8) > this is horribly broken.. > > selecting 3 or 4 just reprompts the main menu.. Again I would just say that this is a wording issue. I'm not sure what the best phrasing for this would be, but something along the lines of "select as many aeolus components that you would like to install before continuing on" (In reply to comment #9) > It seems like the initial prompt is essentially acting as a way of accumulating > choices the user has made and then eventually kicking off a puppet run. > > The flow is pretty confusing, and i"m not sure it is easily resolvable in the > 1.0 timeframe. > > I think this is a good feature to continue working on in the upstream version > but it probably makes more sense to remove the interactive functionality from > 1.0 while working out a good workflow from the user experience point of view. Ya thats fine to me. Interactive mode was meant to be a standin replacement until we had a cli tool. Now that we have w/ aeolus-cli, the necessity of the interactive mode is reduced Patch sent to list https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/aeolus-devel/2012-January/008232.html Pushed to staging
