Description

Motivation

The replication_rules field contains a list. This allows the Transmogrifier to create multiple rules for each did matching a subscription. However, the Web UI is only able to handle a single rule.

Modification

Add support for multiple rules. It might be acceptable to have an ‘advanced’ option which allows you to directly edit the content of the field, which triggers automatically if the list length is higher than one.

Research direction

Start at the Subscriptions page and trace how the replication_rules field is currently edited and rendered. Check how a subscription with multiple rules reaches the Web UI, then make the page support the complete list, including the proposed advanced editing path if needed. Done means subscriptions with multiple replication rules can be viewed and edited without losing rules.
