More stuff that would be useful in boards.json #37

Open ccd0 opened 8 years ago

ccd0 commented 8 years ago

Some additional details that could be useful to have in boards.json:

[x] maximum and minimum image dimensions
[x] maximum webm duration
[x] whether audio is allowed
[ ] supported filetypes (PDF on /tg/, /po/, and /gd/; SWF on /f/)
[ ] number of replies shown in the index (3 for /b/ and /vg/, 1 for /t/, 5 for others)
[x] whether the board is forced anon (like /b/ and /soc/)
[x] whether threads require a subject (like /vg/)
[ ] whether the robot is enabled (like /r9k/)
[x] whether images are disallowed in replies (like /news/)
[ ] other special features (dice on /tg/, oekaki on /i/, fortune on /s4s/)
[ ] special remarks from beneath the post form

Thanks for the additions, devs. I assume maximum image dimensions weren't added because it's 10000x10000 (2048x2048 for webms) everywhere?

image dimensions

Yes.

We'll add some more data later (special board features, forced anon, subject requirements).

Thanks. The forced anon one in particular will be useful because it allows generating a reply form correctly (no name field that will get ignored confusing users) without having to examine the reply form on the page.

My suggestion is to add board category and NSFW flag into boards.json. ex.) /a/ have 'Japanese Culture' category and NSFW: false.

desuwa commented 6 years ago

The worksafe flag is already there: ws_board, 1 for SFW boards, 0 for NSFW boards.

zenhitei commented 6 years ago

@desuwa Thank you, I didn't notice the ws_board flag and another ticket for adding categories on boards.json (#33).
