Admin section to input a DNIe manually

[voodoorai2000]

Some votes will be made in a physical ballot. The DNie of these people should be inserted into the db through an admin form.

Each admin should have a unique password.

Do you think Active Admin would be OK for this? I can configure it.

Awesome!

[jaimeiniesta]

OK, I'll give it a try.

I guess we'll have SSL on the server, right?

[voodoorai2000]

Cool, yes.

I'm not sure I understand the requirements here, but I think Active Admin is not what's needed for this task.

It basically produces beautiful, advanced scaffolds, so they give access to all CRUD actions on certain models.

Are you sure you want to give all those admins the ability to create, update, destroy, show... all the attributes of all the records for the Citizen model?

I think it's not a good idea to do this, it feels very, very insecure to have so many admins.

[voodoorai2000]

Yes, another solution would be best ;)

Maybe a new model, physical_dni, with a value:string?

[jaimeiniesta]

I don't know, I'm not sure about the exact requirements, sorry :)

I guess an editor role who was just able to enter the DNI of the citizens (just create, not update, destroy or see other records) would be fine.

But I'm afraid I can't help you here. :/

[voodoorai2000]

That would work :)

The problem we are trying to solve is avoiding double votes. Once through the aplication and another time through a physical vote.

We need a flexible solution, so that we can create separate accounts for each representative at a table, and also be able to block their accounts to stop possible malicious actions!
