An open source project leveraging SignalR to make real time forms easy.

collidr's Issues

Cascaded click?

If i use 3 page, and i click on first page, then the second page of the message arrives, set of the focus, then on the third page of the message is received as if it would happen on the second page of the edit

Improve NuGet Package

Should be able to get things going as much as possible without the user hand-bombing stuff.

Should consider things like a raw CollidR install and a CollidR.Mvc install.

Updates & nest models/collections

Hi, any updates for ASP MVC core and models nested collections

Update Project Sample to VS2013

Get the sample running inside VS2013 instead of VS2012

Make notification pane unobtrusive

This should be a pluggable toast notification from the bottom.

Automate Output of NuGet Package

Need some PS work in place to build when we have a release branch.

Add support for Edit and Save Events

These just need to be exposed as events.

Clarify Experience for Out-Of-Sequence Logins/Edits

Example:

1. User "A" logs in
2. User "A" changes text in a text field
3. User "B" logs in, should see that a field is in edit

This isn't currently happening, need a way to queue and playback events on the server when someone joins an entity, and clear when the room is cleared. This will be a little fuzzy, but need to work through this.

Add HTML Helpers to Create Data API Element Structures

• Editor pane and editor list
• Warning alert area

Expose Edit Events in Bootstrap Formatter

The formatter should change the alert pane red when an edit happens.

Add a "Shadow user" Feature

When user "A" starts editing a record, give the option to other users to shadow changes for user "A".

Example:

1. User "A" joins.
2. User "B" joins.
3. User "B" edits the text field.
4. User "A" sees message in alerts area, prompting to shadow user "B".
5. User "A" chooses to shadow, all user "B" edits are sent through the hub to other users

Formatter Implementation of onExitField

The default formatter must deal with exit field correctly.

Allow Hub to Accept and Send New Values for Form Fields

More than one editor always reports 2 editors

null exception in OnDisconnected. The HttpContext.Current is null

Maybe you can use Hub.Context.User instead of HttpContext.Current.User. ?

Create sample Formatter for Something Other than Bootstrap

Likely something like just logging to the console would be fine.

Sample Should Include Start Method with WebActivator

The sample should be set up to use WebActivator. This will lay the footwork for the NuGet package, which should work without having to do much to get it to run (though, perhaps the package should also include a read me to explain).

Expose All Edit Events from Server

Need the following implemented:

• onExitField
• onEditorDisconnected
• onEditorConnected

Edit Notification Remains on Other Clients when Editor Leaves Page with Field in Focus

If you start up two browsers and navigate to the same entity you can reproduce this.

In browser A, enter a field. In browser B you see that field A is being edited. If you close browser A at this point, browser B's tooltip doesn't disappear.

Need to expose a disconnect event in CollidR that the formatter listens to and can process departed editors correctly.

Add support for String, Guid, and Int64 keys

Current implementation only supports integer based primary keys for objects. Consider adding support for other primary key types.

Add build scripts to bundle javascript files

Currently we are having to copy edits to the javascript files in multiple places. Need to add some build scripts to do this automatically.

Setup Branches Correctly

Going to be using GitFlow.

If I login on two page in same brower, not detected by the program

Maybe could monitor the connection ID, then:

string connectionId = Context.ConnectionId;
var username = string.Format("{0}|(connection:{1})", Context.User.Identity.Name, connectionId);

I do not know whether to be interesting, but you can watch here: https://github.com/gplesz/CollidR

(I also requested to send any pull.)

Create MVC Scaffolder that includes the RegisterCollidR bits

Basically just extend the built in MVC Scaffolder to include this section at the bottom of the Edit view:

@section Scripts {

@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jqueryval")

<script src="~/Scripts/jquery.signalR-1.1.3.js"></script>
<script src="~/Scripts/bootstrap.js"></script>
@(Html.RegisterCollidRFor(p => p.PersonId))

}

Formatter Implementation of onEditorDisconnected

Must implement proper post-departure formatting when an editor disconnects.

Break Out JS Sources to Separate Files in Core Project

General clean up. Will need to think about auto merging this as a build by-product later on...

Create HTML Helper to Add Script to Page

Can leverage reflection/generics/etc. to find the name of the model and possibly the ID based on primary key, or have it provided through the method call.

This would allow for auto generation of the following:

<script src="~/Scripts/CollidR.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

    var collidR = new $.collidR( 
        {
            entityType: "MyNameSpace.Models.Type", 
            entityId: @Model.PersonId
        })
    .registerClient();

</script>

With a line of code like:

 @Html.RegisterCollidR<Person>( p => p.PersonID)
