Update data management model #6

Open cbrech opened 4 years ago

Looking for suggestions on how we should update our data management model. Currently all MQF data is contained in individual JSON files and embedded in the app as it is delivered. This presents a few issues: 1) any change to an MQF requires a new app release

2) App Store Version can not include most airframe MQFs due to FOUO info. Note: we can release directly to EFBs with all MQFs.

3) people not on the team cannot make, share, or update MQFs.

Couple restrictions to think about as you submit your suggestions: 1) we must protect gov data (tech orders and FOUO data) 2) currently we do not have an ATO and a website with which to distribute data.

Looking forward to your suggestions.

Howdy, What about updating the information from a google sheets ? I developed an app for a High School here in Ramstein and Im pulling all the data from Google Sheets. Google Scripts can convert all those columns into JSON and the app just reads that. Let me know if you would like me to send you that code.
