drects-node's Issues

display/edit formulas

use sqlite db for documents

allow document tree roots to be array or scalar

make a false root with "rex-document" and "rex-options", with the document being any subtree type under rex-document.

load any file without this structure the legacy way, and save with the new structure.

duplicate subtree without values

express has passthru functions for serving files directly

res.sendfile('rects_c.html')

add/delete members/elements

edit member key

register error handler to centralize... error handling

https://github.com/expressjs/errorhandler
next(err)
error handler has (err, req, res, next) arguments

simplify logging

https://github.com/expressjs/morgan

support tabular data?

json doesn't support directly; perhaps just add a rex-tabular configuration option affecting display only, in which the user promises all rows will have the same fields

need to make module.exports and require more web-browser-idiomatic

remove querystring require()

add doubleclick handler to avoid highlighting

let OTHER in rex-ordering represent all keys not explicitly named

name/rename document

share/collaborate on document

upload document to db from json through webpage

favicon handling

res.send(404, 'No favicon')

add a method to edit rex-options from viewer ui or subview

server can automatically set content type for json

res.json()

add support for vector-valued functions (like "find") that can feed into aggregators

save documents to json from web page

add new array/object node

move node to new location in tree

delete/hide/archive document

add TOC to readme

add rex-config item to specify default values when templatizing

only parse body in POST call

app.VERB can accept multiple functions to chain route specific middleware. since you're only needing body contents for /savedoc, you could move the bodyparser call to that route
and then it would only do parsing when data is posted to that url
eg, app.post('/savedoc', bodyParser(), savedoc);

modify formulas to account for circular references

view/edit history of a document in db

idea: use cell/table terminology in UI

hide methods in a namespace so they're not naked

specifically, module.exports if they should be importable by another file

delete/disable user

add sqlite tables for documents and version history

add/remove formula nodes from list when created/changed to/deleted/etc

duplicate subtree with values

write detailed docs for each configuration option

animate with css

polish up the UI some

add __dirname to paths (don't assume relative)

__dirname + '/saved.json'

Make work in Firefox

user creation script: modify param parser to accept multi-word full names

use express methods for response

res.set(), res.send()

add more sample files
