| Feature | Status | Details | Notes | ||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Update the service document to accept image types | In progress | The service document should indicate that it accepts images. When image data is posted to the collection, it should be accepted and a "success" response should be returned. (In the backend, it can simply perform a no-op at this time.) | |||||||||||
| Backend changes required to store images | Unstarted | There are some database and backend changes required to store the uploaded images and make them available for use. | |||||||||||
| Update the service document to return the complete list of images available (when requested) | Unstarted | The complete list of images stored in the gl_article_images table should be accessible via WS so that they can be edited or used in articles. | - | Allow editing of image metadata using the webservices API | Unstarted | Some information related to the image can be changed later and the webservices API should support this. | - | Support additional filters for retrieving list of images (optional) | Unstarted | The API might be able to support additional filters, such as getting only recent images, fetching thumbnails etc. These might be interesting features to look into. |
