Family tree #193

Open najampk opened 7 years ago

najampk commented 7 years ago

Feature request, i think family tree is a great addition in that application.

This would be awesome, we would need to get the people to people relations sorted out first.

This doesn't really seem to be inside the primary scope of Monica which is to act as a relationship manager.

There are lots of great genealogy apps out there which are built for the specific purpose of creating a family tree.

As a first step, it would be great to be able to add relatives to contacts. Right now, this is very limited (only children).

It sounds like beyond the original scope of Monica, which is to manage "1-degree" social network (direct contacts). As a researcher in this domain and data visualisation fans, I do like this feature.

Though I think this would be interesting to see, I agree with @colourgarden and @hupili that it seems beyond the scope of what Monica is intended to do.

Perhaps an interested soul could spin this off as part of a "monica add-ons" project? Since in principle this just needs to know about the Monica directory structure to generate the family tree representation it doesn't require all the Monica infrastructure. Maybe if Monica develops plug-in support (long term, no idea if this is something the devs are entertaining), that could be an avenue to pull in this type of non-core functionality?

@privong what do you mean by this?

this just needs to know about the Monica directory structure to generate the family tree

The API would be sufficient to build any type of family tree as it provides access to all the relationships as well as other info.

API: https://www.monicahq.com/api

privong commented 6 years ago

@OmgImAlexis I didn't know there was an API. I meant SQL schema, not directory structure, sorry.

I think this could be partially handled by https://github.com/monicahq/monica/issues/357. Visualizing the relationship graph would include visualizing a family tree.
