Standard template plugin

Insert template into the editor based on the context of the cursor.

Goal

Add templates based on the context of the cursor or by clicking the add template button.

Requirements

Depending on the chosen decision type we should add specific templates to make writing decisions easier. The first application for this is roadsign regulations.

Options to preview a template or save/manage your own templates are a nice to have.

Available templates

On an empty page you can choose between:

• Vrije tekst (free text) -?? why would we need this

  • needs less priority

• Generiek besluit - nieuwe stijl (generic decision - new style) -- default

• Generiek besluit - klassieke stijl (generic decision - old style)

In an article you can insert:

• nieuw artikel (new artikel)

• citeeropschrift

• voorbeeldartikel

New templates (TBD)

Inside a roadsign regulation context:

• add the end article of a new roadsign

Current state

1. On an empty page

2. Inside an article

Future state

1. On creation of a new agenda point

• choose a template

• option to expand a preview of the chosen template

• provide a default setting for the template (TBD: generiek besluit: nieuwe stijl?)

• extra: select besluittype to start with

Preview collapsed

Preview expanded

2. Inside an agenda item

There are multiple ways to trigger a template plugin. We don't show the plugin window automatically to leave room for other plugins windows. UX/UI expectations on buttons?

The template plugin can be triggered by:

• inline button (based on the context of the block)

• button inside the contextual menu (see new RDFA-editor scope / interface)

• EXTRA? right mouse button? > not default behaviour in web apps

Triggers

When the plugin window is opened you can:

• choose and insert one of the available templates for the context of the cursor

• open a preview of the template

Plugin window

When the preview dialog is opened you can insert the template or close the dialog.

Further exploration (template creation)

Exploration

? a template adds structured content to a document. Each document has a title and short description. Types of documents:

• agendapoint

• (ontwerp)besluit

• zitting

Possible "template blocks"

• citaten placeholder? how would that work?

• citaten - multiple citaten (default overview for relevant context e.g. "zone 30") or individual for specific besluittype e.g. "aanvullend wegreglement" and context

• article (rather an extra placeholder for an article)

• article content block (e.g. road measure)

The unique uri of each document and content block item can be visualised. - how?

Templates could be pre-made or made by the user and saved for later use. These would be built up from different blocks (such as a title, sub-title, article,..) relevant for that template - document vs. example content block vs. placeholderer).
