Unwelcome change: Paginating the task queue list

[Jeff Schnitzer]

Hi Google…

Yesterday I noticed that the “task queue” viewer in the cloud console was changed to paginate the results every 10 entries. I can no longer see the state of all my queues at a glance. Constantly clicking through four pages is irksome, especially when there is a vast sea of blank space on my nice tall monitor.

My app performs a lot of orchestration based on task queues; checking to see if any of the jobs are backed up is part of our standard measurement of the general health of the system. This just got a lot more painful.

If you have to paginate, please make the list hundreds long. Not 10. I heard my entire team scream in agony, one at a time, as they noticed the change :-(

Thanks,

Jeff

I'm about to write the kind of post I hate: +1!

There's no issue about this, but I also hate it. I don't mind task pagination, but this is insane. At least make the page size something like 25+. We have 14 and it's annoying, I cannot imagine how bad it is for people with more...

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the feedback. I've submitted a bug to get this increased to 100 queues/tasks per page. The fix should go out in the next release or 2.

Also, I'm gathering requirements on making the Task Queues and Cron UI even better. If you have more feedback to share, please email it to me! lil...@google.com

Kim,

what's the release cycle for the console?  is the next release or 2 measured in days, weeks, or months?  this change really slows down our workflow and increases our costs to manage the platform.  it's quite sad that we keep eroding one of the biggest features of GAE - simple management, by making changes like this.

Thanks,

Christian

Hi Christian,

I can say with pretty high confidence this fix should be live by next Thursday (May 5, 2016).

Hi Kim. We love the task queue and rely on it heavily. Our biggest issue is the “wall of numbers” - it would be super helpful if we could control the naming of tasks in the console so we can see at a glance what’s backed up. The API only allows us to name non-transactional tasks, which are a small percentage of our tasks :-(

I created this issue:

great thanks! I never know what the release cycles are for the console.
