Tibor Meller updated METRON-2190:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
h2. Loading indicator and blocking loading state

The loading indicator will be applied for both manual and automatic alert entry 
querying but in a different way (manual blocking, auto nonblocking).
 *Loading state of a manual query* better to block the UI with a modal load 
indicator. Changing grouping, filtering, querying, time range change, turning 
automatic querying on/off, changing show/hide toggles or sorting could all 
trigger another search request. We would like to prevent this (having multiple 
operations) so it is better to block these operations while UI waiting for a 
response.

*Loading triggered by automatic querying* indicated with a smaller spinner 
close to the Play icon and it's blocking no interaction with other parts of the 
UI. The automatic query should be canceled if the user triggers a manual query 
or when the next automatic query triggered by the timer (as a later improvement 
we can warn the user about getting no answer within the refresh period).

With this fix, we can prevent UI fireing and listen to multiple query responses 
at the same time.

 

UPDATE: The actual implementation contains no loading indication for non 
blocking loading, bc we haven't find any good UX for that.
h2. A) Issue: Lack of loading indicator (spinner)

There is no indicator such as a "spinner" that a query is pending/executing, so 
if the screen does not change, you have no idea (or if you were not watching as 
it changed). This is a problem when queries do not return immediately, 
considering the issue where there are multiple pending queries.
h2. B) Issue: allowing Multiple pending Query Requests

For Solr queries that are not sub-second, as they are submitted and responses 
are still pending, requests queue up and results start updating the UI in order 
as they come in. If queries are really slow, this can become very confusing as 
3-4 changes may happen in the UI.
