SUI - 2016-02-12 Github Issues and Item Show Pages

Agenda

  • Github issues compliments of Lynette

  • Item show pages

    • How do we display nested works, nested collections, and files in the work item page?

Attendance

  • Lynette Rayle (Cornell University)

  • Anna Headley (Chemical Heritage Foundation)

  • Michael Tribone (Penn State)

  • David Trujillo (UCSD)

  • Sonya Betz (University of Alberta)

Notes

  • Right Hand Column Widget

    • Responsive design

      • tablet in landscape adjust column widths and keep on the side

      • tablet portrait and mobile phone sidebar widget goes to the bottom per current convention

        • perhaps put tabs on the top and bottom of the content

        • save button goes to the bottom

  • User Testing and demo

    • Cornell and Penn State my have Sufia 7 on a publicly available server for user testing

    • definitely think it is important to test with a range of users and test our assumptions

    • Mike T. to speak to Mike G. about user testing and the development cycle to reincorporate what we learn back into the development

  • Dashboard

    • keep buttons now that top bar is available?

    • perhaps good to keep them for longtime users

    • configurable

    • might need to table dashboard discussion for round 2

  • Nested Works and Collections

    • see use cases for hierarchy in tree view (does not handle 1000s of pages well)

    • also see use cases for breadcrumbs and separate screens to display complex data

    • need some good examples

    • group still need to work on this issue

    • Mike T. to look at Google's Material design and cards

    • distinguishing between files, works, and collections within a listing

      • do we use icons for each?

      • do we use different graphic design treatment or layout?

    • Add filter in listing to show only files, works, or collections

    • Will there be an identity for collections?

      • perhaps for second round

      • logo or other defining features

      • each collection customizable

      • more for public show page

    • Important to take advantage of Blacklight's pagination

      • for things like books

    • Breadcrumbs and hierarchy

      • doesn't really show the system hierarchy?

      • shows more of a constructed or predetermined hierarchy

      • problematic for works in multiple places

      • does not track users path through the system

        • browser can do that

      • graph versus hierarchy

      • my works > name of work

      • my collections > name of collection

  • Start page when user logs in

    • does it always go to the dashboard?

    • what if user is viewing an item and then logs in only to be directed to the dashboard

    • customizable?

    • supers users versus occasional users

    • how the repo is being used and managed may affect workflow

  • What issues are left to add to Github?

    • Files upload page

      • how does it fit in with the jquery tabs?

    • Top bar

      • David to provide code for top bar

      • create gist and share to reference in Github

      • a little animation for the top bar to show new functionality

    • One for each Tab

      • each included in parent or page issue

    • General tabs

    • Metadata tab

      • David to port info from Word doc to Github issue

    • Collections

      • Lynette to handle the collection section based on works issues

    • Show Pages for Work and Collection

      • Mike T. to handle Github issues

      • still need to resolve layout and nested works, collections, etc.

    • Styling

      • Are we going to recommend styling of the the layout and elements?

      • Bootstrap?
