Mobile App

Context

Today wikifab works on desktop only.

The users have to transfer their pictures from a camera to a laptop. This is very boring and time consuming.

We want to make an app to take picture and transfer them automatically to the tutorials.

State of the art

Mediawiki comes with a bunch of API that could be use to send picture from the app to wikifab.

You can find the API documentation here : https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page

Installation guide

To develops this feature, you can install wikifab locally following this tutorial : https://github.com/Wikifab/wikifab-main

Features

Log in from mobile

To use the app, the user needs to log in to wikifab from his mobile phone.

Browse tutorials

User can search for an existing tutorial from his mobile phone.

Create a new tutorial

User can create a new tutorial from his mobile phone.

The created tutorial should respect the Wikifab syntax (available when going to &action=edit)

Take pictures

User can take pictures from his mobile phone.

Send picture to a tutorial

1. User search for an existing tutorial or create a new one
2. User selects the tutorial he wants to send picture to
3. User selects pictures he took with the app (or pictures stored in his phone)
4. User publish (send) the selected pictures to the tutorial library

Back on his laptop, user find the pictures in the library of pictures of the tutorial. He then can organise the pictures inside the tutorial from its laptop.
