Snapshot Content UI

Area

Description

1

Snapshot Selection

At any given time only a single snapshot is displayed. You can change what snapshot is currently being displayed from this dropdown. Select a snapshot to view the content for that particular snapshot.

2

Show Revisions

By default only the Projects and Packages are shown in the table. You can optionally view the files in the Packages and/or the commits by either checking this box or by expanding the individual row.

3

Content Toggle

Each snapshot consists of two main facets: the content and the execution (dashboard).

  • Content - When creating a new Snapshot, all Projects and Packages included in the Release get built and versioned. These versioned builds are known as the Snapshot Content

  • Dashboard - Once the Snapshot Content has been built, it is submitted to the Pipeline configured on the Release. The process of the Snapshot Content flowing through the Pipeline is called a Pipeline Execution and this is exactly what the dashboard displays.

By default the Dashboard tab will be shown if the Pipeline Execution has started. At any point however you may switch to content and vice versa via this toggle.

Description

1

Compare Toggle

When comparing a snapshot you have two options:

Snapshot Compare - Compare against other Snapshots in this Release (Default)

Environment Compare - Compare against what is currently deployed to a specific Environment

2

Compare Select

Depending upon your toggle selection in #1, here will list available Snapshots or Environments you can compare with.

3

Differences Only

When comparing you have the option to show all content or only the differences between the Snapshot and your Compare Target. By default, Only Differences is checked as true.

How comparisons work

  • Older - A Project or Package is older (displayed in red), if the SCM Revision is older in the Source Snapshot when compared with the Target. If no SCM Revision exists then it is determined from the Project Version.

  • Newer - A Project or Package is newer (displayed in green), if the SCM Revision is newer in the Source Snapshot when compared with the Target. If no SCM Revision exists then it is determined from the Project Version.

  • Same - If A Project or Package has the same SCM Revision or Project Version then they are equal and display in the default font color.
