need a way of locking annotations post edits #124

Open satra opened 7 years ago

satra commented 7 years ago

being able to curl annotations up allows overriding annotations with ease. we need a way to prevent manually curated annotations from being overwritten.

perhaps a lock icon that effectively prevents an annotation from being overwritten.

and just moving the annotation access settings to 'view' only?

satra commented 7 years ago

not quite, perhaps two types of locking:

  1. locking by doing "view only"
  2. locking that allows interactive editing but not curl based direct upload.

how would that work? adding an extra button to the interface just to prevent POST upload would be strange...

r03ert0 commented 7 years ago

maybe we can prevent by default curl upload to any atlas that has been manually modified, and add a specific parameter to the curl command that would force overwritting if necessary?
