August 6
[edit]Here's a brainstorm that Erik and Andrew came up with on August 6 about things to do for Flow.
- API access:Access to data layer (getting post data from a specific board, etc)
- Access to 'controller' layer (ability to do allowed actions)
- I think we need to separate form submission logic (i.e. pulling values from request) from actual action logic in order to make this work
- Visual Editor integration (allow people to edit Flow posts with Visual Editor)
- Output (what's wrong here?)
- Current output is just a random bit of HTML, not styled and not seperated much
- Existing tempates are very hackish (see topic.html.php )
- Extensibility: Add hooks to storage layer
- Finalise storage layer (tweak architecture, etc)
- Implement JavaScript fanciness
- User Subscriptions
- Consider building something based on AbstractIndex that uses Redis ZSET, or continue using SecondaryIndex with correct sort/limit.
- Need to think about workflow level actions: (un) subscribe, (un) delete, etc.
- Should be the same for all workflows, regardless of their type?
- Represent UUID's as an object
- Has methods to retreive a binary representation for use in db queries, and a pretty (base36, 26 or 16?) representation
- Methods to create from either representation (auto-detect strlen==16 ?)
