Triage was painful on the old layout: a lone Site dropdown sat on a sparse
row, errors were truncated mid-sentence with a per-row View/Hide toggle
that on expand pushed an unwrapped <pre> through the table and shoved the
Actions column off-screen, all rows looked the same regardless of age or
attempt count, and OriginInstance — which tells you which instance
produced the failure — wasn't displayed at all even though the data was
on the entity.
This pass:
- Adds a real filter bar: Site, Category, Target system, Origin instance,
Age window, free-text search. Category/Target/Origin/Age/Search filter
the loaded page client-side; Site still drives the server query (and
changing site now auto-queries — one fewer click).
- Replaces the in-table expansion with an Offcanvas detail drawer.
Clicking a row slides in a side panel with full message ID + copy,
category label, origin, attempts, both timestamps in relative + absolute
form, the complete error (pre-wrap, scrollable), and big Retry / Discard
buttons. The table never overflows.
- Stacks Target + Method into one column (target in semibold, method
small/muted below) and surfaces Origin as a code-styled chip in a new
column ("—" muted when null).
- Severity left-border on each row, derived client-side from
AttemptCount/MaxAttempts and age of the last attempt: red when retries
are exhausted and last attempt was in the past hour, amber when
exhausted but stale, muted grey otherwise.
- Mini attempt progress bar under the n/max count, red when fully
exhausted and amber while partial.
- Relative timestamps ("5m ago", "1h ago", "2d ago") with absolute UTC on
hover via the title attribute — applies in both the table and the drawer.
- Bulk select: header checkbox selects the filtered set, per-row
checkboxes. When ≥1 selected, a sticky action strip slides in below the
filter bar offering Retry selected / Discard selected with the usual
confirm dialog. Toast reports per-item success/failure counts.
- Summary line next to the title: "N parked · K target systems · oldest
Xh ago" (and "(showing M of N)" when filters are active).
- ParkedMessageEntry contract extended additively with MaxAttempts,
Category, and OriginInstance so the UI has the data it needs for
severity, the category filter, and the new column.
- Bumped page size from 25 to 50 to better match the dense layout.
Eliminates the per-page <ConfirmDialog @ref="_confirmDialog"
ConfirmButtonClass="btn-danger" /> boilerplate. Pages now inject
IDialogService and call ConfirmAsync(title, message, danger: true)
programmatically.
New scoped service holds a single active dialog (throws on nested
calls), with a global DialogHost mounted once in MainLayout that
renders the modal markup, owns body scroll-lock via Bootstrap's
modal-open class, traps focus on the modal element, and handles
Escape-to-cancel.
Same service also exposes PromptAsync, used to replace the bespoke
NewFolderDialog. Both ConfirmDialog and NewFolderDialog components
are deleted — their callers (~13 pages across Admin/Design/Deployment
/Monitoring) now go through the service.
DiffDialog stays as-is — different use case (before/after content).
bUnit tests in TopologyPageTests, DataConnectionsPageTests, and
TemplatesPageTests register IDialogService in their service
collection.
Also: a top-of-file Razor comment on Sites.razor pointing future
implementers at it as the reference list-page pattern.
Dashboard: user-info card demoted; 4 KPI cards (Sites, Data
connections, Templates, API keys) sourced from existing repositories;
3 Quick-action link cards (Health, Audit Log, Templates). Inline
max-width style replaced with Bootstrap utilities.
Health: KPI row condensed to Online / Offline / Sites with active
errors (Total Sites and Total Script Errors dropped). Per-site cards
re-laid out 2-column with each subsection (Data Connections,
Instances & Queues, Errors & Parked Messages) inside Bootstrap
collapse panels collapsed by default. Online / Offline / Primary /
Standby badges paired with shape glyphs (o / * / triangle) plus
aria-label.
EventLogs: filter row wrapped in a Bootstrap collapse toggled by
"Filter options (n active)"; per-row View toggle reveals the full
message in a collapse row; "Keyword" relabeled "Message contains";
all filter inputs gain id+label-for+aria-label; severity badges paired
with a leading glyph; explicit "End of results" terminator on
Load more.
ParkedMessages: Message ID rendered as <code>{first 12}...</code>
plus a clipboard button; per-row View toggle reveals full error;
action buttons get aria-label="{Retry|Discard} message {id}";
in-flight spinner inside the active button.
AuditLog: pagination Next-disabled now uses
_page * _pageSize >= _totalCount via HasMore helper (fixes the
exactly-page-size edge case). Clear filters button added. Entity ID
rendered as code + clipboard button. View/Hide buttons gain
aria-label referencing the entry id. State JSON larger than 1 KB
renders a "View in modal" button instead of the inline overflow.
