Create Real Time Updates

[itdependsnetworks]

The plugin at times can give the illusion of that everything is happening in real time. For SoT aggregation, the data is rendered live each time. For all other components, this is simply not the case. The Plugin is by design, non opinionated about the use cases and solutions. Taken from the FAQ.

The plugin make no assumptions about your intention and expects the operator to manage the configurations as they see fit. As as example, in preparation for a change, one may update data to reflect these changes, but not want to generate or run compliance against these configurations. Additionally, configurations generated would have to either update the Git Repo immediately or generate locally only and not update the Git Repo, both of which may not be as the user expected.

The current design allows for the maximum amount of use cases and make little assumptions how the user wants to manage their configurations. That being said, education about how the process works is important as inevitably any design choice will not be line with another person's pre-conceived notions. There are a myriad of technical issues to be considered before any change can be made to this process.

Proper proposals of designs will be considered, but they must describe the use cases that they are covering, even for those that are not relevant to the user.
