As per #48. To be created as an AJAX-based system and controlled with angular in the page editor.
Attributes will only be able to be assigned to pages initially but future Chapter/Book support will be considered in build.

Build task list:

  • Initial API build
  • API testing in place
  • Angular-based UI on page editor screen
  • Attribute/value search support

Is there documentation on how to use this feature?
There's no mention of it on the v0.10.0 beta release page.

@KnightNine it's mentioned quite a lot under the "Page Tagging" title

oh, I thought this was a separate feature to tagging that would help with categorization in the "folder" view (where you navigate through shelf>book>chapter) as you offered this as a potential solution to #95 . Tags aren't viewable unless you're already viewing the page/chapter/book the tags are attached to.

I would suggest to...:
tags

But it wouldn't really help with easily seeing which pages/chapters/books use the same tags without searching for the specific tag, and likely becoming less and less easily viewable the more tags that are added among your pages.

I feel like Tagging only really helps if you already know the tag you're looking for and you have a lot of pages which relate to each other on certain topics. It doesn't really help when trying to organize the branches of a subject and have it be easily navigated.

I do understand the need for an extra dimension of organisation/categorisation through which will be added by the attribute-value system proposed in #48.

True that this is an extra dimension of categorization but not for the folder view which #95 is addressing.
