add feature to delete bundles, messages, variants

[samuelstroschein]

Proposal

Add a delete button to variants, messages and bundles.

Context

We can't test change control of creations and deletions otherwise.

Do we really need to fill required actions in the ui for testing purposes? I would rather give dev mode buttons on the bottom or something like that.

[NiklasBuchfink]

Ok, we need to make a decision. Should it be possible to create and delete bundles?
Workflow-wise, it makes no sense that translators can create bundles. As it is a standalone app, it kind of makes sense. In other editors create and delete are enabled by roles (translators can't, devs can).

[NiklasBuchfink]

As it is only used for testing, we can add these buttons if the environment variable is set to dev.

[samuelstroschein]

Just add create message and bundles buttons. Fink is standalone now. If someone wants to create a bundle/message/variant, they should be able to do so.

Do we really need to fill required actions in the ui for testing purposes?

Yes. We want to test change control for inserts and deletions. Users will surely trigger bugs.

[NilsJacobsen]

If someone wants

Which user wants that?

[samuelstroschein]

For demo reasons we ourselves want it. There is no reason to not implement this except that back in the day our tech stack didn't allow us to create new messages from sherlock

[NilsJacobsen]

If we are the users now. Okey but now real user wants that.

[samuelstroschein]

i remember that users asked for it on discord already. so agree to implement this?

[NiklasBuchfink]

Ok, let's add it then.

[samuelstroschein]

Another user asked for delete operations in UIs on disord https://discord.com/channels/897438559458430986/1283048712448376873/1283158576960897169.

[NilsJacobsen]

It absolutely makes sense for sherlock, not really for fink. But this doesn't need to setup generally. This bundle action can be slotted in the editor so what ever the app prefers can be built.

[NiklasBuchfink]

Sherlock users have a context in the coding workflow about new bundles that are to be created or old bundles that are to be deleted. Fink users don't have that.
In other i18n tools, they restrict the creation and deletion of messages to the role of the dev/i18n manager. Translators cannot create or delete new bundles as no one wants them to do that. It would simply be unnecessary error potential.
We don't have roles yet, but our personas use different tools. I bet that the introduction of this functionality will eventually lead to requests to disable this feature for translators.

Let's close this discussion and introduce creation and deletion in FInk for demo purposes and users.

That's a validation rule.

Okey let's do that 👍
