@erquhart that's cool thank you! I see this PR is now conflicting with master, I can resolve these. Would you like me to rebase master into this branch too (as per contributing docs)? |
|
Just fixed actually - merged a newer PR by mistake earlier and broke a bunch. |
|
@erquhart well thank you! 🙏 |
|
@peduarte Thank you for including the matching docs update!! 😉
|
|
@verythorough So I assume it was originally thought of as an override for automatic pluralization, whereas this would be strictly manual? |
|
@tech4him1 that's correct. The goal of this implementation is to be strictly manual, as it's been discovered that trying to intelligently pluralize/singularize words doesn't work. |
|
Hey there 👋 is there an "ETA" for this? Thanks! 👍 |
|
I see no blockers, and it looks like @erquhart approved, so I think we're good to go. Thanks for the nudge, and for the contribution! I'm looking forward to making use of this. |
Hello 👋
This PR adds
label_singularto collection config.Fixes #684
- Summary
This field will be used in the UI in places where a singular label makes more sense. For example:
If you have a "Posts" collection, the "add collection" button in the UI will show as "New Post" rather than "New Posts".
I went with
label_singularbecause I foresee majority of Collection names being in plural. Therefore, I think by default the label should respect the collection name.However I'm happy to change it to
label_pluralif needed.- Test plan
There doesn't seem to be tests for certain fields in the config, such as
label, perhaps because these are optional fields. For this reason I have not written any tests.- Description for the changelog
