Current status/ongoing operation?

[Jackman3005]

Hey, just wanted to say thank you for creating this. It's been really helpful while setting up and trying out Typesense for the first time. 🙏

I find sometimes that there are operations occurring within Typesense that are not surfaced anywhere.

For example, if I add an embedding field and it takes awhile to create embeddings (could be hours) the only way I know it is still working on it is by trying to add the field again and see if I get the error Request failed with HTTP code 422 | Server said: Another collection update operation is in progress..
Or when I am upgrading to Typesense 29.0 I see that the memory is slowly going up on the status screen, but I don't really know what's going on until I try to use it and get Request failed with HTTP code 503 | Server said: Not Ready or Lagging.

I don't know if they expose these details through their API or not, but it would be great to see if there are any long-running processes on the dashboard, if there was any sort of progress on them as well that would be particularly re-assuring when waiting for them to complete.

Also another side thought, I think you should put a link to this GitHub repo at the bottom of the dashboard. I think it would help people find your repo, star it, and add/find related issues/discussions.

Anyways, all the best!

Hi, thanks for your message.

Unfortunately, I am not aware of any API endpoint which provides information on ongoing status.

As for more visibility of the projet inside the app, I think this is a great idea and will look into it.

Thanks
