Hi all, I've been working with the Annotator for the last few days and have successfully got it working with my app (using Django & Django Rest Framework api). I'd like to be able to link users to annotations. I'm not talking about as a lone object, as for instance annotatorjs.org/annotateit.org do, but embedded in the document which it's annotating.
My first guess at how to do this would be to attach the annotation's unique ID as the highlighted span's ID so it can be used as an anchor on the document. Some nosing around suggests that highlightRange <https://github.com/openannotation/annotator/blob/0041995f944e7f1f1373b03e20565bb69e226b52/src/ui/highlighter.js#L18> is where that span is created. Is there a way to get this behavior via a plugin, or should I modify highlightRange directly? It seems that in order to modify highlightRange, I'd need to pass in the annotation ID but I can't, from searching the git repo and reading the docs, tell where highlightRange is even being called. Do folks have any suggestions? I'm new to JQuery and pretty inexperienced with Javascript generally, so my apologies if these are questions with obvious answers. - Shauna
