Sidebar with pipelines. #185

Hello,

While using this great project I have noticed that it should not be hard to implement UI for all pipelines that user defines in his project. I mean something like a homepage with the list of pipelines. I found that I do the same for each pipeline: create the pipeline, start runner, define a link for it and then create a compojure handler for it.

I think that it is a good idea to abstract that in a way that you can pass a vector of pipelines with a configuration to some function from lambdacd.

Example of configuration:

[{:name :project-pipeline
  :pipeline project-pipeline ; or even like a keyword :namespace/project-pipeline 
  :url "/project"
  :runner :start-one-run-after-another}]

What do you think, does that make sense?

Aleh

Yes, that's absolutely possible. Have a look at this example: https://github.com/flosell/lambdacd-cookie-cutter-pipeline-example

I haven't updated this in a while but the basic concepts should still work. You might also find a few interesting pieces in this wiki page: https://github.com/flosell/lambdacd/wiki/Guide:-Pipeline-Structure-Refactoring

I also know some people who built quite advanced setups similar to what you have in mind, I'll try to find out if any of that can be shared

Clear for now. Will think about standard API in reference UI for it.
