'Create Entity' button created in the cwrc-writer entity lookup form.

Steps

  1. User presses on the "Create entity" button

  2. If it's the first time the user tries to create an entity in the current CWRC-Writer session, the user is prompted to choose the entity collection (s)he wants it created in.

Pop-up:

Please choose a CWRC collection in which to create the entity. Your choice will be used for all new entities created in this editing session.

List from which they select - provided through a json config file in the CWRC-Writer

  1. User selects the collection.

We save their choice so we can use it for any subsequent entity creations in the same edit session.

  1. Instructions (optional - see alternative in #8):

Pop-up:

After you've created the entity, please return to this window and click the 'Find Entity' button to run the search again. You may then choose your newly created entity from the refreshed results.

  1. The entity creation form is open.

The CWRC-Writer does not need to deal with authentication when opening the entity creation window , or for any entity lookups.

The entity creation form window opens smaller and on top of the current window so that it looks like a popup.

pop-up window example

  1. User fills in the form.

  2. User saves entity.

  3. Pop-up (optional - see #4)

Entity saved. Return to the entity search to locate it.
