Add member category

What needs to be done

Add a new field "category" for members so that they can by searched easily.

Technical details

We need a place to edit member category (in the profile?), a new search field, and a place to administrate the category list (to add/edit/remove categories).

Test cases

Links & Mockups

1. needed for #1000

Only admins are able to edit the category?

I would say yes. @Berengere ?

@alexbourlier @fabien4vo yes there would have 4 or 5 categories in a list. And the members could select one of them.

@Cyrilthiriet Are we interested in this?

@alexbourlier I didn't have this use case yet, I'll try to see more details with @Berengere to see if interests match with us or not.

@balessan

That should be an optional feature from the solid-directory components so we must think of a way to enable/disable it easily through configuration.

• Need for a new djangoldp-package similar to the skills one to store that category information -> 37.5 tokens
  • ForeignKey on the LdpUser
• Need to display it:
  • on both solid-directory.js profile cards -> 2h
  • on solid-profile.js for current user -> 2h
• To edit, need to add the SlimSelect (single select version) or dropdown in solid-profile.js -> 4h
• Add the search field to the solid-directory solid-form-search -> 3h
• Administrate the category list (to add/edit/remove categories) -> that should be done through the back-office at first at least, so out of scope from the frontend for now (optional if we wish to do it from the frontend: 24h)
• Configuration by adding a new optional attribute to the component, and get it using PUG from the Hubl config file.

Ping @Berengere for the estimation:

• Backend-side: 38 tokens
• Client-side: 70 tokens without the frontend administration, 220 with it.

Estimated with @SylvainLlop and @clement

I think that issue should be moved to https://git.startinblox.com/components/solid-directory actually.

@Berengere thinking about it, it's a component maintained by @jbpasquier which is impacted. He is on vacations I know but, ideally estimate should be done/reviewed by him.

We cannot so let's propose something conservative.

Ping @clement @SylvainLlop if you are interested in evaluating that too.

Need for a new djangoldp-package similar to the skills one to store that category information -> 37.5 tokens

This can be included in models of djangoldp-profile.

I'm fine with the estimate and by having those guys working on it, I'll add 18 tokens on top of it for reviewing.

@balessan ok ! I would need to know as well, when it could be done :)

@balessan top merci ! Just one question: What does "frontend administration" mean? Mean that she won't have to go on Django to manage it?

Yes but as we do for skills I would advise against that for now.Big complexity for little gain if there is only 4 to 5 different categories.

I agree

@jbpasquier is this quote still up to date? I guess not. Would it be possible to have an update for this feature?

Isn't it the role thing that we specified together?

not the same subject. Here this is just about adding the country to my personal info on my profil.

If you say that this is the same subject the quotation has really increased between this issue and the "role thing" one :)

I see nothing related to a country here, only a "member category" thing, which looks like the role feature.

Both issues have different point of view, and a different approach, and a different rendering - you have far less things in this one management/startinblox-feature-requests#173 (comment 61230) vs #1002 (comment 55017) - but from what I read the quotation didn't increased, on the overall we're going down from 258 to 242 tokens?

Sorry I didn't mean "country".

The estimation for the #1002 (closed) is :

• Backend-side: 38 tokens

• Client-side: 70 tokens without the frontend administration, 220 with it.

• 18 tokens for you for reviewing.

If we stay with a back end administration it would cost 126 tokens right? Or am I missing something?

We should call together about the quote here and there and the difference between both. I'm contacting you on Hubl.

After a call with @Berengere

Closing this one in favor of management/startinblox-feature-requests#173 as the actual one here does not answer the needs.
