Indication when editing sync realm offline #263

Open stel opened 7 years ago

stel commented 7 years ago

Proposed in: https://github.com/realm/realm-browser-osx/issues/261

If the connection was lost while editing remote Realm the changes that had been made offline can potentially be lost if the Browser window is closed before the connection is available again.

In this case we can simply disable editing and show the corresponding warning because in general case it's not possible to guarantee the delivery of this changes to ROS.

How important do we really believe this to be? It is a desktop app?

stel commented 7 years ago

Yes, it's a Cocoa Browser. It's not a common case but it could cause a data loss, so it would be great to have something to prevent that.

Ok, in that case, I would not prioritize this at the moment, seems very niche.
