Notify user the doc index has completed #30

Open donnemartin opened 8 years ago

donnemartin commented 8 years ago

When the doc index build was blocking it was obvious when it was complete.

Now that it's in the background (much improved) you're not really sure when the full docs are available.

The toolbar might be a good place to show some info.

On a related note I've seen suggestions of progress bars, time remaining, operation info, etc for some long-running aws-cli commands.

Yeah, the toolbar would be a good place to show this. I'm guessing in order to implement this in the UI, there'd need to be some sort of callback the indexer could invoke as it iterated through the docs that let you know the progress.
