List all players in Concerto

Closed this issue · 3 comments

There is currently no intuitive way to see all the players.

My hope is that as the plugin matures, players will be better integrated with screens, and this should be a rarely-used administrative function. But it should definitely be accessible.

I'm leaning a way from a top menu link; those could pile up quickly. Something I've been thinking about recently has been reviving concerto_plugins#show to show plugin status (detected at boot or not) as well as let the plugin insert things, such as this (see concerto#765). It could be in the form of the list itself or a link to players#index.

However, screens#index isn't a bad idea either, in this specific instance. I'd like to take a little time to develop the plugins index idea; maybe we can experiment and see if it seems viable for this purpose.

@mikldt shall I close this then, or did you want me to leave it open as a reminder?
