Suggestion about Account #78

Open starshipcoder opened 1 year ago

starshipcoder commented 1 year ago

On iOs account contains: -rawId : the account container -name: the name container -type: the type, always the same for a container -mimetype: not used

On android: -rawId: the raw id of the raw contact, -name: the account name -type: the account type -mimetypes: a list of mimetype found in this raw contact

In my opinion, as mimetypes and rawId are not the same for a specific account, it should be in another object (RawProperties or something else) Account could have a accountId to identify it, it would be usefull for action on an account.

Hi, so I want to know the phone number of my user cause I want to find people on my server who have the contact of my user. Any suggestions to solve this problem or a way to get the phone number of my user through the contacts? I don't want to ask my user to type in his number :/

@ThalesVonMilet please open a separate ticket for this.

@starshipcoder thanks for the suggestion! To understand better, you're saying essentially:

Account should have the Account ID and all the properties "flattened"
Separately, there could be a RawAccount that would have the RawAccount ID, mimetypes, and raw properties only for the RawAccount? And maybe we could have a function to get the RawAccounts corresponding to a given Account?

Let me know if you have something else in mind.

To be more clear: on android, rawId and mimetypes are specific to the contact, not to the account so it should not be inside the account.
