Multiple Repositories / Multiple Users #36

Open norsemangrey opened 2 years ago

norsemangrey commented 2 years ago

Another suggestion :)

Since this an online editor I can host on my server it would be really awesome if other family members could use it as well. I mean, they can as it is now, but many notes are often private / not interesting to others. So a great improvement would be a possibility to create login for different users as well as being able to map multiple "repositories" (i.e. folders) into the container which an administrator can assign to different users.

@norsemanGrey - To be honest, I'm not too keen on adding multi-user functionality. Mainly to avoid the complexity. But I will keep this open as a suggestion to track interest.

Something I do want to implement is the ability to share notes with someone else (see #21).

Equally, flatnotes is lightweight enough to allow multiple copies to be run (one for each user). Although I appreciate this wouldn't allow notes to be shared among users.

simple multible users would be welcome. 1-n main folders for each user one. Configuration like you mentioned in the docker compose. -> only one url for all family members. Only one main data folder to backup.
