Forms to supply table entries
Describe the feature you'd like
A way to implement HTML-forms that would generate entries into a table. Something like https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:bureaucracy
Imaginary example from DokuWiki:
<form>
action pagemod :data:table addreportederror
textbox "Name"
textbox "Year">1900 <2024
textbox "Description of the error"
submit "Report error"
</form>
^ Name ^ Year ^ Description of the error ^
| sausages | 2020 | the count is invalid |
| aples | 1997 | aples -> apples |
| ... | YYYY | some description |
Anyone can add entries via the form. Table part can be only edited by users with specific group.
Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users
Two use cases in our scenario:
- Quicker/easier/validated way to add table entries
- Limiting normal users to only adding data (can do without)
Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?
Could not find any. #3208 request seemed to be slightly similar to this feature.
