Hello All,

The company I work in is a usual web design and development studio. A
month ago I argued our company to switch to Midgard in developing of
our internet projects. Since that time I've been taking my
crash-course in Midgard, been playing with it and, meanwhile, managed
to implement one of our projects on this platform.

Well, now we're developing a site for a cars selling company. We'd be
happy to use Midgard for the back-end application server and Aegir as
a client-side content management solution.

Now, here comes the problem I'm stuck at...

Description -----------------------------------------

The client wants to put and then weekly update her price-list on the
site. The list, in its hard-copy version, is a table with the
following columns: car's model name, its manufacture date, and price.

On the web, it's planned that a price-list position may have a photo
attached to it. Also, it should be possible for a visitor to filter
the list on the price or model name column.

Well, on the other hand, our client needs some kind of an
administration interface being setup to let her update the price-list.

Guidelines wanted -----------------------------------

1. What would be the best way to store price-list items of the
forementioned structure inside the Midgard DB?

I could actually put the data into a separate database table, but
then, AFAIK, it wouldn't be possible to replicate the site as a single
chunk using repligard.

Or, may I somehow tell repligard that we've got a new class of
objects, so it puts them into the tarball together with the rest of
replication data?

2. How do I implement a specific price editing tool in Aegir?

Meanwhile, I try to create an Aegir add-on that will handle the task,
but I really experience a lack of documentation on how such things are
constructed and working in their core. All I've achieved so far is
adding a menu item in the left-side menu... And what next? Are the
styles, that Aegir claims for the interface, to be put into the AegirCore
snippet tree... or where?

Are there any guides or tutorials available on developing Aegir/Nadmin
add-ons in the net?

// --------------------------------------------------

I hope someone on this list would enlighten me somehow on these
topics...

See you,
Andrey.
