UI Create _find_work_widget partial

[elrayle]

Wireframes:

• in context of New Work - Relationship Tab - sections This Work in Other Works, Other Works in This Work, Related Works
• in context of Edit Work - Relationship Tab - sections This Work in Other Works, Other Works in This Work, Related Works
• in context of Batch Upload - Relationship Tab - sections These New Works in Other Works, Other Works in These New Works, Related Works

  Usage:

Used to find and select an existing work. Options for finding a work:

• user begins typing the name of the work and auto-complete suggests works
• user chooses to search for works and can browse a list of all works with pagination

  Implementation:

• File: /app/views/generic_works/_find_work_widget.html.erb
• Create a partial for a view that includes the find_work_widget.
  • need to be able to name the field associated with the widget
  • need to be able to return a value for the field based on the user's selection
• Add class/methods that support auto-complete
• Add class/methods that support browse and select

@mjgiarlo backlog this?

For the autocomplete: Would the right/desired approach be to create new local authority which returns the available works? Something like Qa::Authorities::Local::FindWorks. This class could then do a Solr query to return available works.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

After hitting some road blocks, looks like QA is not the way to go after all. In search of new direction.

@andjsmit why would you not use QA for this?

What is the status of work on this issue? Our team is interested in this feature as well. @andjsmit @dlpierce

There is working code, but I have so far not been able (lack of experience) to write required tests to push code through to a merge. Hope to revamp code to latest master branch and then look for assistance it creating proper test.

Let me know if you need a hand with that, I can put in some time this week

@tap87 I've replaced the pull request with some refreshed code. I would greatly appreciate any help you could provide in adding additional test. Thx.

@andjsmit I pushed a commit which adds some tests. Let me know how things are looking. This is also my first commit to Sufia 😄 .
