Improving revision update support #10769

Open tmkasun opened 3 years ago

Describe your problem(s)

On the current Deployments page, We don't have a mechanism to update the deployed revision with a single click / action

This improvement will change the above view as follows and provide the Update Deployment button to update the deployed revision.

Had an offline discussion with @Krishanx92 @erangatl & @tharindu1st and came up with the following design

Excalidraw link

Describe your solution

When API is not deployed to an environment/gateway user will have the option to select gateway URL, Revision & Display in developer portal inputs and click Deploy
When a revision is deployed it will show as below revision selection and display in devportal check box is enabled but Update button is disabled until user change any value
When modified users can update the deployment from 1 click

@nuwand @sanjeewa-malalgoda , @bhathiya , @tgtshanika , @malinthaprasan any suggestions or comments on this approach?

what if we move the blue label and the undeploy button to the "deployed revision" column, and the dropdown and update button to the action column?

Deployed revision        |     Action
----------------------------------------------------------------
<blue label>  Undeploy   |    <dropdown>    Update

another suggestion is this.

Deployed revision        |     Action
----------------------------------------------------------------
<blue label>             |  Undeploy        <dropdown>    Update

Deployed revision        |     Action
----------------------------------------------------------------
<blue label>             |  Undeploy        <dropdown>    Update

Since we need to keep the buttons in Action column I'm also +1 for this

Looks better. Maybe we should rename the "update" button to "deploy" too? Having 3 buttons might confuse users. wdyt?

Since it is already deployed, we thought most meaningful action would be to update the deployment. Although technically it could be different, users would get the idea. WDYT?
