Discussion on plant database

Please feel free to edit this wiki and add your own thoughts.

The database

  • Where to get the data?
  • Set up the database (mongodb) with plants
  • Grab data for water amount and size from database
  • Autocomplete as user types name of plant
  • Need buttons on the user interface
  • Add a plant to user's garden
  • Allow user to customize plant size and water requirements for their own data, but not for database in general

Data integrity

In order to ensure data integrity, a database of plants should be kept. Potentially users could be allowed to input new plants, however the user may not know the correct amount of water or could misspell the name.
