[pdm-devel] [PATCH manager/proxmox{-api-types, -yew-comp, -datacenter-manager} 00/10] PVE node update view

[Stefan Hanreich]

gave this a quick spin on my PDM cluster and it seemed to work well.
Checked the available upgrades for all my nodes (PVE 8 and PVE 9). Then
upgraded a node and re-checked the output.


Some notes (all of them seem to be pre-existing to the current panel):

We might want to show a custom text if there are no upgrades available.

We might wanna think about improving the description column since in its
current form it shows a small part of the description truncated, which
isn't that useful imo. The title field might be better suited for
displaying in the table view?
Potentially add that double-clicking on a row opens a small window that
shows a detailed view with the information we get from the API already?


Since they're all pre-existing and probably better suited for a
follow-up, consider this series:
