Sameboat Spec Story

Sameboat Classifieds is a major function delivered as an integral app with the domains CMS.
Its derivation includes the following:

  • Back End

    1. D7 Classifieds (ED Classifieds as it originated in D4/5 from an entity named Exodus Development). Provides the core of the classifieds data mgt.
    2. D7 Commerce for Products and Pricing. Used for larger Public Market purpose, worked out here although full application will come in apps other than classifieds.
    3. D7 Auction. Auction and Reverse Auction are advertiser selectable alternatives to fixed pricing. Defaults to fixed pricing, present for similar workout of later public market purpose.

  • Front End

    1. clfe (craigslist like front end)

      2. Adapted from django classifieds to generate it's craigslist like data structure from the ed classifieds taxonomy and use other infra replacing its backend. Basically gutted and rewritten rather than adapted as required for so substantially different a backend.

    2. node_gallery, views_galleriffic, et.al.

      3. The leaves of the category tree display galleries as in craigslist but again with more variation in content types. Video recording and conferencing functions are available in addition to basic static ads.

  • C六 general features such as the DS App, DCMS> python components supporting bots and matching, etc.

DCMS general infrastructure, e.g. D7 Entities to bridge Commerce and Auction with the LD categories and contexts, taxonomy, PG, etc.

State of the Major Function in a new node of the network ...

Nodes oriented to devops groups
In nodes such as the common root sameboat.network, where the user groups are expected to be capable, the taxonomy and categories are delivered in a minimal configured state for subsequent user articulation.
Nodes oriented to other groups
General nodes such as the geonodes (e.g. ord.sameboat.network ) are fully configured according to the type of node, with a common starter taxonomy and categories which may subsequently be user modified or not as desired.
