WCS - Wiki Content System

Okay, so this wouldn't be complete documentation without mentioning the dynamic wiki content system. The "heart" of the application or the functionality that makes it possible for people to use a UI to edit, implement and delete elements.

There are two parts of this system, the storage part which is defined in the models in the server documentation, and the interactive part (including rendering).

The data

Everything is stored in redux state field activeProgramSubjects in the content reducer. The data is stored within an array with the type:

interface SubjectData {
    _id: string,
    name: string,
    code: string,
    description: string,
    logo: LOGO,
    color: string,
    group: Group,
    archived: boolean,
    createdAt: Date,
    updatedAt: Date,
    __v: number
}

Rendering

When entering a subject screen what happens is that we recursively go through our data object. Our data is built up using groups and content. A group may contain as many content objects as possible and even other groups too.

A content object can either be a text, link, or a deadline.

Rendering is done in the file RenderData.tsx located in components/templates/content_rendering
