Add generic GUI for SaltStack #4662

Open DemiMarie opened 5 years ago

DemiMarie commented 5 years ago

Qubes OS version:

Qubes release 4.0 (R4.0)

Affected component(s):

dom0 updates GUI

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Run dom0 updates GUI

Expected behavior:

The output of each VM is displayed in a separate text box, with highlighting. Furthermore, arbitrary Salt parameters can be passed. Finally, copying of output that is not from dom0 is blocked.

Actual behavior:

The outputs of each VM are displayed in a shared text box, without coloring. Only the Salt update command can be run.

General notes:

We only need to worry about the subset of ANSI control codes produced by SaltStack, which is essentially trivial.

Related issues:

4543, but this issue is far simpler regarding its security considerations.

Only the Salt update command can be run.

This is on purpose. This isn't generic GUI for SaltStack, it's a GUI for updates. So, this ticket should rather be named "Feature request: add generic GUI for SaltStack".
