Create a method for users to store metadata with the candidate objects #44

Open PaulHancock opened 6 months ago

PaulHancock commented 6 months ago

Goals:

Be able to store metadata for each of the candidates in the db
Be able to retrieve/view the metadata

The metadata is not in a regular structure that can be used for all candidates, however it can be serialised (eg as JSON) so a string based metadata column would suffice. The website doesn't need to interpret the data, just display it as a set of key:value pairs.

Potential solution:

Create a new model which is metadata that holds the serialised content plus a link to the candidate to which it refers.

from d1894ed2a42614dcbc29f1c757159b4a9c9db65f it is now possible to upload metadata along with a candidate. The fits file must have a column called "metadata" and it can contain any text data. When viewing the "candidate ratings table" there is now an additional column which shows a link to the metadata. The linked page shows the raw metadata.

However if there is no metadata the link results in a 404.

[x] Remove the link if there is no metadata to show.

When downloading tables of candidates the metadata isn't also downloaded.
