List of canteens in settings too long #4

Closed domoritz closed 5 years ago

There needs to be a separate view with search capabilities and maybe a location based filter.

cyroxx commented 11 years ago

I agree. Additionally, the canteens should be sorted by their name on default.

@cmur2 Would you like to work on this?

cyroxx commented 11 years ago

We could probably resolve this by implementing a list-based view of canteens, ordered by distance based on the user's current location, which can be searched (i.e. you get a distance-sorted list based on the search term).

Instead of giving a full specification here on what I imagine, I rather refer to "Öffi Haltestellen" from Öffi as a good example. It allows you to search by using different criteria and you can even mark a stop as one of your favorites (try long-pressing a certain stop to open up the menu). If we had a view like that, we could overcome many of the current shortcomings and gain a lot of power instead.

@cyroxx Yes, that is something like what I've imagined for the canteens list. I just haven't had the time to implement it. If you would like to implement this, go ahead and assign this issue to yourself ;-)

Started development at the feature-canteen-finder branch of my fork.

So far it displays a simple list of nearby canteens sorted by distance, no fancy interaction, no nothing: cyroxx/open-mensa-android@7fb9bc1b0ac050d6fa19782545f9e956eb818c92
