Commit Id http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-atlas/commit/dbfca622 > UI to create/update entities - configuration to restrict entity-types > editable via UI > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ATLAS-1502 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-1502 > Project: Atlas > Issue Type: Bug > Components: atlas-webui > Affects Versions: 0.8-incubating > Reporter: Madhan Neethiraj > Assignee: Kalyani Kashikar > Fix For: 0.8-incubating > > Attachments: ATLAS-1502-1.patch, ATLAS-1502.patch > > > ATLAS-1193 introduced UI to create and update entities. Currently the UI > allows an user to create entity of any entity-type - including the superTypes > like Referenceable, Asset, Process, etc. It may not be useful to support > entity creation of many such entity-types via UI. Restricting the UI to > support only a subset of entities would make the UI more usable and avoid > potential confusion. > It should be possible to configure the list of entity-types supported via a > configuration, to enable deployments to satisfy specific needs. I would > suggest to use a configuration like: > {code} > atlas.ui.editable.entity.types="type-1,type-2,type3" > {code} > - if the configuration is set to an empty value (or not set): UI should not > support create/edit of any entity > - if the configuration is set to is set to "*", then UI should allow > create/edit of any type of entity -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
