Online Synchronization and Editing #15

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
In my experience, it would be incredibly useful to list the songs available
online for the song leaders to use.

We could either:
1. Give a web script to the user. Require the user to configure the
information from within ExpoSong to the website. Or,
2. Provide inhouse hosting for schedule information, giving each
congregation login information (schedule.exposong.org ?). This may cause
some redundancy in data. If we tied it in with purchasable lyrics for legal
reasons, that could be helpful.

It would not necessarily have to have the full lyrics for each song, but at
least the first 2-3 lines of the first verse.

This is something I often had wished was offered in current software.

To me it is also very important to have a web interface. Maybe it's a good way 
to
build up such a service (schedule.exposong.org) and also give the core of the 
script
to the congregations who want to make the hosting on their own?

That would probably be good. It would be an opt-in anyways, so that 
congregations
would only use it if they actually wanted to.

After some thinking my opinion is, that the song leaders need the whole text of 
the
song. At least in our church, the song leader very often want to change 
something in
the song for one Sunday. They also want to see if the lyrics fits to the current
topic of the service... So as a first step they need to see the whole text.

A second step could be online editing of songs. Perhaps not everything, but if 
they
can change the slide order for one schedule it would be very effective. But for
editing songs online we also need a good synchronization tool...

(Moving some info from the TODO wiki page I'm removing)

We could also work in additional resources the user can pay for, such as lyrics
(royalties will have to be paid), backgrounds, and other resources.

This is easier for me to implement than animations, so I think I'll try to get 
this
done by 0.8.

Here's an program that is doing online synchronization. Useful ideas at least 
for
getting me started later on.

This is one of the features that is probably the one I'm looking forward to the 
most. 
I've started thinking about how we could actually use the web as a complete 
platform. 
You could have one window that the user sets to be full screen on the monitor 
for 
presenting, and the other window will control that window.

It won't be as clean as a program, but it might be a more popular program than 
ExpoSong itself. It would work on any computer, and always be updated. I've 
found that 
Google Chrome has the best full screen viewer.

My requirements, as of now, are as follows:
 * Automatic synchronization in ExpoSong.
 * Edit Schedules
 * Edit Presentations
 * Manage Backgrounds

And possible features are:
 * Present directly from the web

Maybe we should have a look at this project, it is from an OpenLP developer:

I'm pushing this back to an unknown release. We've got a lot more work to do on 
the interface. It wouldn't be a bad idea to try to integrate into openworship.

Here is some code from an OpenSong web interface for creating schedules:
