Rob Vesse commented on JENA-420:
--------------------------------
Existing applications like the OpenRDF Sesame workbench may provide inspiration
here
For point 2 take a look at Flint SPARQL Editor -
https://github.com/TSO-Openup/FlintSparqlEditor - It's under a Category A
license so can be used as a drop-in or as a starting point. We use a modified
variant of Flint in our product and it does have some limitations (syntax
highlighting is primarily SPARQL 1.0)
Point 3 needs to be done carefully so as not to impact the ability of Fuseki to
act as a SPARQL endpoint e.g. a client tool should not be given HTML when they
want SPARQL XML
Point 4 could be a fairly major project in its own right
For point 5 I believe some level of JMX management can already be enabled in
Fuseki but I don't think this is well documented and it certainly lacks a UI,
this one may be better off as a Java tool if it needs to use JMX.
> Web-based User Interface for Jena Fuseki

> Fuseki could use an overhaul / rewrite of the web interface. It would be
> great to design a nice web-based GUI interface for both querying/exploring
> the data and for managing Fuseki itself.
> Tools and skills that may be required:
> Java, HTML+CSS, Javascript, Velocity (templates used server-side in place of
> JSP)
> A few ideas to get started:
> 1) Resource Explorer
> This interface allows the user to select any resource from either a list of
> all triples in a graph, or from the results of a SPARQL query. After
> selecting the resource, they can view all of the statements that reference
> the resource.
> 2) Improved Query Input
> It would be great to enhance the query input form for both queries and
> updates. Some features here that could be useful would be an IDE-like input
> box that performed syntax highlighting, automatic indentation, and easy
> commenting out of selected lines of text. Additionally being able to
> pre-populate the input box with the user's commonly used prefixes would be
> great (stored in a cookie or some such).
> 3) Improved Query Results
> Better display of query results (especially SELECT queries). Already
> mentioned was a tie-in to the Resource Explorer, so a user can easily see the
> statements about some interesting resource in the results. But it would also
> be great to layout and format the result table better. Even display the
> results on the same page as the query input box using AJAX. Or allow the
> table to be resorted after the query results have been returned. Also
> display the total number of rows.
> 4) Query Management
> View and manage currently running queries. Display how long queries have
> been executing, and allow the user to cancel queries that may be taking too
> long.
> 5) Fuseki Management
> There are many tasks here that would be great. Expose JVM properties via JMX
> in a nice UI. Things like CPU/Memory usage, disk space remaining, etc.
> Allow initiation of back-up tasks. Allow the user to download a snapshot of
> the repository. Shut down the server. Possibly add and remove datasets
> dynamically.
> Attached are screenshots indicating the current UI and the workflow for
> issuing a query. The idea would be to overhaul and replace most of this!
