Questions and Answers
- What was the hardest part of the implementation?
- Hardest part for me was trying to figure out what to do with multiple types of users. Spent a really long time thinking about using a many to many table between users and roles, only to end up using my original, simplier idea. Also spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to refresh session information in case a pharmacist or courier updates their information. Spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to add an attribute to Coherence registration, only to find how to do it in a config file.
- What would be your next couple of tasks if you had more time?
- If I had more time I would find a more elegant way of handling different types of users, and uncomment out the stuff I put in for Canary/Canada authorization management. I've used it in another project before and really like it.
- How could we change the project to be more interesting?
- Add something with Google maps or something to simulate the live delivery of an order.
