Feature Request: Trigger failed pipelines from the dashboard

[ankitm123]

Is it out of scope to add a button to trigger pipelines from the UI (similar to jenkins/Circle/Gitlab)? I know you can re-trigger pipelines using /retest using chatops, but sometimes, chatops can get a bit chatty (too many comments may distract reviewers).
I can take a look at adding this feature, if that's fine.

Hi,
yes in my opinion it's out of the scope of this project, because it's not read-only anymore once you start adding such actions.
I agree that chatops can be chatty, but as a benefit every action is logged ;-)

When I see read-only, I think that the UI should not have the ability to change pipeline/task definitions (similar to jenkins replay or configure pipeline) or any jx related files inside the .lighthouse directory , but the ability to re-run a failed pipeline or task or step would be incredible useful to the end users imho.

chiming here a bit late but i agree with @ankitm123 suggestion. having a retry button would significantly increase productivity and developer experience of Jenkins X as a whole.
