Ability to curate Phlux photo series within QRiS

[philipbaileynar]

Goal

Hand pick a few Phlux series and curate them within a QRiS project.

Key Points

• Ready only! Phlux series will continue to be managed within the Phlux app/website.
• Dockable window with list of Phlux series stored in QRiS project.
• "Phlux Photo Series" appears under "Context" within the QRiS project tree. Use the Phlux logo for this item.
• New Database table for storing Phlux series.
• Dockable window that shows the Phlux series within the project.
• Phlux series show up as point layer in the map.
• Selecting a Phlux series in dockable window the user can zoom or pan to the series.
• Clicking the dot on the map either showsa hover popup with series attributes, or carousel for browsing photos.
• Dockable window has button for searching/retrieving Phlux series (see below)

Notes & Considerations

• Need to handle that Phlux series might change permissions. Not guaranteed that user can see all series forever.
• Make sure Phlux database table in QRiS has metadata field. There's another feature coming soon where we will help users CREATE Phlux series from Data Capture Events. We will store configuration of these "QRiS generated series" as JSON in the metadata so that we can extend these series in the future when new DCE are added.

Questions

• Speak to @MattReimer about options for actually getting or viewing the photos. Perhaps we just grab an animated GIF and not every photo. Certainly we want this to be nimble and not wait for download of a dozen 20Mb images etc!
• Store photos in QRiS database as blobs or on disk in Context subfolder. Probably latter.

Searching for Phlux series

Note there could be a lot of series within the project area and that the user might only want a couple in their QRiS project.

Might be nice if QRiS can also display a QR code that let's someone display the QR inside QRiS then use the camera on their phone to jump to that series on their device....
