Persistent filters list #8

Open harrylloyd-bl opened 1 year ago

harrylloyd-bl commented 1 year ago

A list of default filters that are either automatically applied or can be applied with one click. These and other filters should be explained in the filters section. This is three potential enhancements:

  1. Changes to filtering that gets done before any matches are displayed
    • I think there probably are some extra filters that can be applied without the cataloguer needing to apply them manually. It's possible that this would be the best way of implementing point 2 here. That if something is lacking on whatever restricted view we'd select then it shouldn't be displayed in any case.
  2. A restricted view that shows only some MARC fields to start with to speed up selection
    • Libcrowds had a view that shows a reduced number of fields. This could be an initial option to help remove some of the worst records, before expanding to show all MARC fields to choose between the remainders
  3. Default filters button
    • This should allow a default set of filters to be defined by the user and saved to apply across multiple sessions.

Point 2 above is now dealt with in #13. Main desire from users is for persistent rather than default filters. These should be saved probs on AWS so that they can be read and restored whenever a user navigates back to a card. This will improve users' ability to remember/explain how they got to a particular record as the right match
