-------------------------------------------
Hi [~kwri...@metacarta.com]
I am not able to successfully test the UI with the existing scripts, not even
the current UI for ManifoldCF. I don't think, the virtual browser will be able
to support the history-api that I am going to use.
I looked at the manifold-api-service and thought of developing the new UI on
top of the api service using AngularJS, I would like to take your suggestion on
this.
Is it possible to get the contract for a connector, let us say, we have custom
tabs for different tabs, in order to generate the UI, I would like to know the
different parameters the connector will require before rendering the UI page.

> Hi,
> I have been working on a new User Interface for ManifoldCF.
> This UI is based on Bootstrap, jQuery and some other opensource scripts.
> Only the index.jsp will be loaded once and other page are rendered using AJAX
> call, making it more responsive and modern.
> Please find the attached screenshots.
> *Backward compatibility:*
> Since most of our tab comes from connectors, those tabs will be displayed as
> it is with no immediate attention required. (see sample screenshot attached)
> *What next?*
> In future we can add Charts to our reports where ever applicable, so that it
> will be more user friendly & informative for end users.
> Can make use of Web socket to notify exception or error to users as
> Notifications.
> *Browser compatibility*
> Has been tested with most latest browser and IE10, will try to add support
> for IE8 with acceptable degradation.
> Any suggestion, concern much appreciated.
