Basic interaction

Most information in kora is managed through a common Create, Read, Update, Delete (CRUD) interaction pattern.

Objects such as plant species, varieties, samples, protocols, and other records are generally presented through two main types of page:

  • a listing page, used to browse and search existing records and create new ones;

  • a detail page, used to inspect, update, or delete a specific record.

Listing pages

Listing pages show the records available for a particular type of object. Depending on the object, the page may provide search or filtering controls to help locate specific records.

The Create button in the page header opens the form for adding a new record. Selecting an existing record opens its detail page.

Detail pages

A detail page contains the information associated with a single record and its related data. The Update and Delete buttons in the page header can be used to modify or remove the current record. The exact information and controls available on list and detail pages vary depending on the type of object being managed.
