DPL-690 Communicating LIMS updates (BP-Medium ¦ Should've) #3764

Open neilsycamore opened 1 year ago

neilsycamore commented 1 year ago

As Tris (High Throughput Sequencing) would it be possible to place a ‘flash message’ across the top of LIMS when updates were due? This might capture those that are in the lab and maybe not read an email.

added this as an sequencescape issue as this is LIMS that user is referring to however this would be useful to display across other affected LIMS though perhaps increases the complexity.

Slack Channel discussion: Tom Yes - it’s a good point. Having been looking at Benchling - it’s got the ability to do this and capture user feedback within the tool itself for UAT testing. But that’s a slight aside…. If we can think of a simple low effort way to ‘flash a message’ across one or more of the applications we could consider it. Abdullah Earlier today when Sujit and I were talking. He suggested exactly this, showing a message at the top, (when and estimated downtime). Stuart I think this sounds like a pretty good thing to do if it were achievable. I have concerns about the complexity of this without creating a message delivery service we could update independent of the application itself. There must be solutions out there others have created though as this doesn’t sound like we’re the first to want it. I would probably want it to be a bit more prominent than a message at the top. Like a dialog that appears over the top of the interface showing a countdown that appears once with a cookie noting that it was shown on a particular machine. Then again when the time is nearer. Tom Feels almost like a google ad link - a bit of embedded js or html to display something on the page from another service… Stuart Plus claxons.mp3 played at maximum volume every 5 minutes <= nts: I believe this to be humour ;-)
