# Feature Specification: Frontend Navigation Redesign **Feature Branch**: `015-frontend-nav-redesign` **Created**: 2026-01-26 **Status**: Draft **Input**: User description: "Я хочу провести редизайн фронта в части навигации. 1. Удалить Dataset Search (из Navbar и дашборда), Deployment Environments 2. Вкладку Tasks оставить для просмотра всех задач - убрать оттуда кнопку Run backup 3. Должен быть полноценный компонент бэкапов, как мы разрабатывали в 009-backup-scheduler. Доступ - из дашборда главного 4. Перенести ссылку на Dataset mapper из Navbar на дашборд 5. Перенести ссылку на Storage manager на дашборд Общая логика - на дашборде должны быть ссылки на полноценные инструменты, навбар - для настроек и общей Tasks" ## Clarifications ### Session 2026-01-26 - Q: Do I need to build the Backup Management UI from scratch? → A: Yes, create the UI for backup using data from task 009-backup-scheduler. ## User Scenarios & Testing *(mandatory)* ### User Story 1 - Centralized Tool Access via Dashboard (Priority: P1) As a user, I want to access all main tools (Backups, Mapper, Storage) from the main Dashboard so that I have a central hub for operations. **Why this priority**: This is the core of the redesign, shifting the navigation paradigm to a dashboard-centric model for tools. **Independent Test**: Can be tested by verifying the Dashboard contains links/cards for Backups, Mapper, and Storage, and that clicking them navigates to the correct full-page tools. **Acceptance Scenarios**: 1. **Given** I am on the main Dashboard, **When** I look at the available tools, **Then** I see options for "Backup Manager", "Dataset Mapper", and "Storage Manager". 2. **Given** I am on the Dashboard, **When** I click "Backup Manager", **Then** I am taken to the full Backup management interface. 3. **Given** I am on the Dashboard, **When** I click "Dataset Mapper", **Then** I am taken to the Mapper tool. 4. **Given** I am on the Dashboard, **When** I click "Storage Manager", **Then** I am taken to the Storage tool. --- ### User Story 2 - Simplified Navigation Bar (Priority: P1) As a user, I want a clean Navbar containing only global context items (Tasks, Settings) so that the interface is less cluttered and navigation is distinct from tool usage. **Why this priority**: Enforces the separation of concerns between "Global Status/Settings" (Navbar) and "Operational Tools" (Dashboard). **Independent Test**: Can be tested by inspecting the Navbar across the application to ensure removed items (Search, Mapper, Environments) are gone and only Tasks and Settings remain. **Acceptance Scenarios**: 1. **Given** I am on any page, **When** I view the Navbar, **Then** I do NOT see links for "Dataset Search", "Dataset Mapper", or "Deployment Environments". 2. **Given** I am on any page, **When** I view the Navbar, **Then** I see links for "Tasks" and "Settings". 3. **Given** I am on the Tasks page, **When** I look for the "Run backup" button, **Then** it is NOT present (as it belongs in the Backup tool). --- ### User Story 3 - Deprecation of Unused Features (Priority: P2) As a user, I want removed features (Dataset Search, Deployment Environments) to be inaccessible so that I don't use deprecated workflows. **Why this priority**: Cleans up the UI and prevents confusion with features that are being removed or hidden. **Independent Test**: Verify that UI elements for Dataset Search and Deployment Environments are removed from both Navbar and Dashboard. **Acceptance Scenarios**: 1. **Given** I am on the Dashboard, **When** I look for "Dataset Search", **Then** it is not visible. 2. **Given** I am on the Dashboard or Navbar, **When** I look for "Deployment Environments", **Then** it is not visible. ### Edge Cases - **Direct URL Access**: If a user attempts to access the URL of a removed page (e.g., `/search` or `/environments`) via bookmark or history, they should be redirected to the Dashboard or shown a 404 page (standard app behavior). - **Mobile View**: The simplified Navbar must remain responsive; with fewer items, it should likely avoid collapsing into a hamburger menu unless necessary on very small screens. ### Assumptions - The backend logic and UI components for the "Backup Scheduler" (Feature 009) are available and ready to be integrated into the main Dashboard view. - Existing tools (Dataset Mapper, Storage Manager) function independently of the Navbar context and will work correctly when accessed via the Dashboard. ## Requirements *(mandatory)* ### Functional Requirements - **FR-001**: System MUST display "Dataset Mapper" entry point on the main Dashboard. - **FR-002**: System MUST display "Storage Manager" entry point on the main Dashboard. - **FR-003**: System MUST display "Backup Scheduler" (or similar name) entry point on the main Dashboard. - **FR-004**: System MUST provide access to the full Backup Management component (newly created based on feature 009 data) via the Dashboard link. - **FR-005**: Navbar MUST NOT contain links to "Dataset Search", "Dataset Mapper", or "Deployment Environments". - **FR-006**: Dashboard MUST NOT contain "Dataset Search" widget or link. - **FR-007**: Tasks page MUST NOT show the "Run backup" button (backup initiation moves to Backup tool). - **FR-008**: Navbar MUST retain "Tasks" and "Settings" links. - **FR-009**: Backup Manager MUST support configuring automated backup schedules (enabled/disabled, cron expression) per environment. - **FR-010**: Backup List MUST provide a "Go to Storage" action that navigates to the Storage Manager with the correct path selected. ### Key Entities - **Dashboard**: The main landing page serving as the registry for tools. - **Navbar**: The persistent top navigation for global application state/config. ## Success Criteria *(mandatory)* ### Measurable Outcomes - **SC-001**: Users can navigate to Dataset Mapper, Storage Manager, and Backup Manager within 1 click from the Dashboard. - **SC-002**: Navbar contains strictly 0 links to operational tools (Mapper, Search, Storage), containing only Tasks and Settings. - **SC-003**: "Run backup" action is successfully performed via the new Dashboard -> Backup route.
