Browser support

The browser based graphical editor which comes with XIBLE is currently only supported by the Google Chrome browser; versions 53 and up.

Other browsers may work, but some editor functionality is unavailable if Shadow DOM v1 is not implemented. It will be possible to start, stop and delete flows, but deploying and saving is disabled. Also, the detail settings of nodes are not visible.

Changelog

[0.4.0][] - 2017-04-30

Added

• Flows can be initialized at different levels, allowing for a faster on-demand start. See Settings/Flows in your XIBLE installation for more details.

• The editor contains a link to the XIBLE docs.

• Command-line xible service options to run XIBLE through systemctl/systemd.

• LICENSE.md file.

Changed

• eslint/airbnb is now the default code style. For the time being, editor/ is ignored from the linter.

• The runnable state of a flow is better synchronized with the editor. If a flow is not runnable, the deploy and start buttons are unavailable. Intermediate state changes reflect directly in the editor.

• The status of a flow is now contained in a single state parameter, instead of relying on indivual parameters for starting, started, stopped, etc.

Fixed

• xiblepm nodepack install returns the correct exit code if nodepack.install() fails.
