Feature: upload a document anonymously
This is a suggestion for the workshop on the 16/11/2022, please don't assign it to yourself or work on it before this date, it is intended as an exercise for the participants.
Context: some users want to upload their documents but don't want their name to appear on DocHub.
UI proposal: We could add a checkbox in the upload form that the user can check if they want an anonymous upload
Implementation proposal (spoiler alert)
- A: make
document.usernullable and storenullas the user for anonymous uploads and update the templates to display the null value (if we do this, it's irreversible, so add a warning on the checkbox) - B: add a new
anonymousfield ondocumentand add a condition to the templates to hide the user in the interface (if we do this, also add the checkbox on the edit form so it can be reversed)
