Managing Online Lists and Quickly achieve it
The basic requirement is always the same:
- a sortable list of items, with some columns
- some categories and sub-categories
- search, tags, display by creation/modification date (latest/newest, oldest)
- some views: browse, details, results of search (save searches which permits to provide individual views)
Some more requirements com rapidly:
- anonymized export of the database
- easily display database model
- add new fields and take it into account automatically in all default views
- authentified addition / modification / deletion (ACL ?)
- manage spam / (automatic) verification of entries
- versioning
- batch addition to quickly import new data
- filtering displayed data (include / exclude) for easy navigation, data drilling
- display tags and tagcloud
Some tools pretend to achieve it really rapidly, but I never spent suficient time to industrialize it for quick deployment
- CakePHP
- Smarty
- using PostgreSQL and PhpPgAdmin (gives too much rights to the user and the interface cannot be simplified)
- symphony / python
Some examples
- http://asso.lanpower.free.fr/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=149&Itemid=87 table to be converted
- browse a complex database model with views / categories

- cakephp to be avoided ?
