[Feature] Automatically collapse lists by list name #10

Open Cassidy13K opened 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Boards typically tend to have a similar setup of ToDo, Doing and Done lists. To reduce clutter and allow for better focus, users might tend to collapse the Done lists. Users might also have multiple Fixed lists on the same board, which tend to get collapsed too. Due to collaboration, other users might move or add new Done/Fixed lists to a board, meaning you have to manually collapse it each time.

Describe the solution you'd like

Describe alternatives you've considered For a much easier alternative but with very limited functionality see #9

Additional context How one could go about implementing this:

  1. Trello API has a callback that allows you to get names of all lists on a board.
  2. With those names you can check if the name includes a certain string.
  3. If the string is found, collapse the lists.

For example:

As to when to run this is up to you, I guess whenever user opens a board? When a new list with the string to collapse is being added to the board? Or whenever user changes his strelloid settings? There might be much better ways to go about this of course, you will know best.

Thank you for your work :-)
