Add the ability to have sub features inside a feature

[SeanFarrow]

It would be nice to allow a user to have sub features inside a main feature. The justification for this would be if for example a library like JQuery was being upgraded on a site with many pages and you wanted to do this one page at a time. You could then have a main toggle and then a sub toggle for each page. Also it would be nice to allow things other than Boolean in sub toggles.

Thanks @SeanFarrow for the suggestion, let me have a think about it :) Just want to keep things as simple as possible... Would this be like some kind of dictionary of toggles where each page was an entry in the dictionary and each page had a separate toggle??

Hi,

Possibly, although the other approach is to have an IEnumerable where ISubFeatureToggle could look something like this: Public interface ISubFeatureToggle { String Name { get;} Object Value {get; } } Hope this helps. I did think about using Generics, to strongly type the Value, but that’s up to you. Cheers Sean.

Hi,

@SeanFarrow Clearly, I don't see what you're expected and maybe the word subfeature is not obvious. But, you may think triggered feature (or dependant features) where activating/deactivating a toggle will activate/deactivate another.

In fact, this is a more general way to do subfeatures like you said, I think.

Hi,

I wasn’t thinking that, I can activate the top level feature, and then can activate any other feature(s) below this. Features below this don’t just have to be true/false, I’ll fork and set something up to give you an idea. Cheers Sean.
