Property grouping in the UI

[marcolarosa]

Following discussion with @ptsefton

Add a layout property to each class defined in the profile that is an array of objects as follows:

    "Dataset": {
            "definition": "override",
            "subClassOf": [],
            "layout": [
                { name: "group1", description: "", inputs: [ "location", "name", "place"] },
                { name: "group2", description: "", inputs: [ "contributor", "annotator" ] }
                { name: "...", leftover things not grouped }
            ],
           ...

• A name property defining the group name
• A description - optional
• An inputs property with the ordered list of properties to include in this group.

Any properties not defined in the layout must be added to the final tab in alphabetical order.

If a class does not have a layout property then properties must be listed in alphabetical order.

Update:

In order to support entities with a plurality of types (e.g. Dataset, SoftwareSourceCode) the layouts prop will be moved to the root of the profile and be an object keyed on the sorted and then stringified type.

Something like:

"layouts": {
    "Dataset": [
            { name: "group1", description: "", inputs: [ "location", "name", "place"] },
            { name: "group2", description: "", inputs: [ "contributor", "annotator" ] }
            { name: "...", leftover things not grouped }
    ],
    "Dataset, SoftwareSourceCode": [ ... layout definitions ... ]
  }
