🚀 Feature: Right Click functionality on collections/documents to delete them seamlessly

Open arrowxpr opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

🔖 Feature description

Hello 👋

During development, I use the Appwrite console to add/delete documents and collections quite a lot. Deleting them requires me to go to its setting and head down to the danger zone to delete it, which is time consuming when such tasks become repetitive.

Requested Feature Right-click functionality on collections/documents to delete them, or maybe any other approach to make the process seamless.

🎤 Pitch

The ability to seamlessly delete any given collection/document, we could test and execute our tasks faster and spend less time navigating between pages doing repetitive tasks. The appwrite console is already developer friendly, and I think this feature would be a bonus to help developers speed up their workflow.

Hi - thank you for raising this. I fear the ease of deleting documents might raise a problem with unwanted deletions - for example, if a user might accidentally click on delete, which they do not want

However, I am all ears to listen to alternative approaches to make this process seamless.

We have this in mind, and want to introduce a way to easily manage this! E.g. a multi-select which allows you to perform actions on multiple entries. But a right click could be a good way of solving it in the meantime. We can use a confirmation modal to prevent unwanted deletions. I'll bring this up with the team!

What's this decision with this, with the team? Can I take it up?
