Field types
Address
Field type address. What is stored is a reference to a person in the address book. Data entry from the
cataloguer’s side is described under Address .
Parameters
| Key | Values | If omitted | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
address_types | List of strings | empty | Only addresses of these types can be chosen. If there is exactly one, newly created addresses carry it from the start |
functions | List of strings | empty | Only people with one of these functions can be chosen |
JSON{ "address_types": ["Museum", "Sammlung", "Privat"], "functions": ["Kuratorin", "Kurator"] }
Both lists are filters on what can be chosen, not lists of suggestions, and they work together: a person has to meet both. Empty means no restriction. If someone cannot find an address, one of these filters is usually the reason.
Subfields
Available everywhere as Feldname~unterfeld: in filters, in the Excel export, in Word templates and in the
Word add-in:
~id, ~salutation, ~title, ~first_name, ~last_name, ~role, ~phone, ~mobile, ~fax, ~email, ~person_note, ~address_designation, ~address_type, ~address_note
In addition there are three postal address blocks ~address1_* to ~address3_* with type, street, house_number, addition, postal_code, city, state, country. state is the federal state or
district, country the country.
The field without a subfield returns a concatenation of many parts. If you need a name, bind ~last_name or ~first_name.
Permissions
| Permission | Effect |
|---|---|
| Write permission on the field | Assign a different address to an object |
| Permission on the address book | Create and edit addresses, also from within the field |
Being allowed to write in the field therefore does not necessarily mean being allowed to change the entry in the address book. See Permission model .
Formatting
The field type comes with Address on one line: institution, person (salutation, title, first name, surname), street and number, postcode and town, each taken from the first postal address. Preselected in the gallery, table and kanban, raw in the export. Since version 1.4.23 the institution always comes first; before that it was dropped as soon as a person was named. See Formatting .
