This page is for planning the implementation of component databases in OpenRocket and splitting the implementation into smaller tasks.
- Design XML format for storing component databases: Component database XML format
- Write schema for the format
- Implement framework for using standard components
- RocketComponentPreset class?
- loadPreset(PresetComponent) method in RocketComponent?
- Remember what is used as a preset component
- When changing critical variables preset component is cleared (e.g. diameter of body tube), but not when changing others (e.g. length of body tube)
- Implement database for storing standard components
- Maintain user-selectable presets list (user can choose which components are in an easy-to-access presets list)
- Implement methods for reading XML format
- Implement methods for reading CSV format
- Implement GUI for component selection
- Preset dropdown
- Button for opening selection dialog
- Dialog allows selecting which components are displayed in the preset list
- Implement GUI for creating components(?)
- Useful for manufacturers
- How to store the preset info in ORK file? Should the entire preset info be included, or just a digest that is used in case the preset is already loaded and available?
