Retrieving data from policies for status info in UI (and more)
by Marc Savy
Some musings, but also thinking ahead somewhat:
I was looking at the Patternfly website and happened upon the "Utilization
Bar Card" [1]. It made me realise that there's potentially a wealth of
information which we could be displaying to users which is currently fairly
opaque.
For instance, with the Quota policy we could display how many GB the user
has left to consume in the given time period, or how many requests (approx)
they've consumed so far.
At the moment I don't think we have any clear mechanism to expose this sort
of information, yet alone display it in any useful way.
IMHO, as we look towards events and other such mechanisms, we should think
about this issue at the same time to ensure these use cases are covered (if
we feel it's necessary).
