Mission Center auto-connection requests

store-requests

To summarize up to this point, votes for auto-connection are as follows:
hardware-observe +1 @alexmurray
network-observe +1 @alexmurray
system-observe +1 @alexmurray
process-control +1 @alexmurray -1? @jslarraz
network-manager +1 @alexmurray

Is there any other information that I can provide to help the process along?

Thanks everyone for the quick feedback, really appreciate it

Hey @kicsyromy

I think we can say votes currently are:

hardware-observe +3 @alexmurray @cav @jslarraz

network-observe +3 @alexmurray @cav @jslarraz

system-observe +3 @alexmurray @cav @jslarraz

process-control +1 @alexmurray

network-manager +2 @alexmurray @jslarraz

network-manager: although network-manager-observe looks more appropriate for the use case, the interface does not fulfill the snap requirements in its current form. Thus, +1 from me for auto-connecting `network-manager for now.

process-control: considering that there are similar applications auto-connecting process-control I will also give it a +1 if the snap description is updated to make this functionality (killing processes) more evident.

Thanks

Thanks for the summary.

Sure thing, I’ll update the Snap description to mention terminating and stopping processes.

EDIT: I’ve updated the description

Thanks @kicsyromy

Then +1 also from me for auto-connecting process-control

hardware-observe +3 @alexmurray @cav @jslarraz

network-observe +3 @alexmurray @cav @jslarraz

system-observe +3 @alexmurray @cav @jslarraz

process-control +2 @alexmurray @jslarraz

network-manager +2 @alexmurray @jslarraz

The request will proceed at the end of the voting period

Stupid question, how can I check that the auto-connections are in place?

27

Given the discussion above to do with process-control, I am shifting to +1 for auto-connecting. +1 from me also for network-manager.

+3 votes for, 0 votes against, granting auto-connect of interfaces:

  • hardware-observe
  • network-observe
  • system-observe
  • process-control
  • network-manager

This is now live.

you should be able to see the auto-connections for your snap via something like:

$ snap connections mission-center
Interface  Plug                             Slot                      Notes
home       mission-center:hardware-observe  :hardware-observe         -
...

Manual connections would show up like:

$ snap connections mission-center
Interface  Plug                             Slot  Notes
home       mission-center:hardware-observe  -     -
...
