Feature request: Edit alias [1d] #104

Closed feinfinger closed 5 years ago

feinfinger commented 6 years ago

It would be great if it possible to edit aliases.

Ingvord commented 6 years ago

@feinfinger , you can do it via database device:

  1. Open sys/database/2 in Test device panel
  2. Filter commands by alias
  3. Select DbPutDeviceAlias
  4. enter device and desired alias as follows: ["sys/tg_test/1","my_test"]
  5. Execute command
  6. Apply device filters (to force devices tree reload) - I should probably add an implicit button for this

I will think about how this can be integrated into UI

Ingvord commented 6 years ago

Due to #123 we can add alias to device info as a tree node and make it editable

After discussion on Dec'13th 2018 it is decided to add ctx menu item to a device in the devices tree view: "Set alias"

@feinfinger ,

Once the new version will be deployed it will be possible to set device alias directly in device info panel:

device_info_panel
