Tasks #189
Description
Tasks enable you to complete complex tasks quickly and easily. They combine multiple steps that involve configuring different subsystems and resources. The console lists them on a new page. As an example, you can use a task to enable SSL for the http-listener in the Undertow subsystem.
The idea is to make it easy to contribute new tasks to the console. A task is defined as an interface in org.jboss.hal.task.Task. Besides some metadata like an ID, name, icon and description it has two main methods that need to be implemented:
Iterable<HTMLElement> elements()to return the UI of the task andvoid run()to contain the actual implementation of the task.
All task implementations are picked up at build time using CDI.
This issue is here to discuss the implementation and collect ideas for tasks.
