Hello, people!
This is a not a WO or WOnder question per se, but I think you guys can help me. Since English is not my native language, I couldn't find anything on the web...
I have this feature I want to implement in a website, which I call "configurator".
In a database of products, each product has options, for example: memory capacity (integer), display type (enum: color, monochrome), audio (boolean), WLAN regulatory domain (enum: FCC, EU, Japan), and so on.
My problem is that some options require other specific option(s) to have a specific value, for example: audio is only available in configurations with a color display.
And, to confuse it a little more, different products have different options with their own rules.
How can I create a model in a way I can input these rules for "valid" configurations? Also, when the user browses the website, he/she can configure the products the way they want and be assured that they won't select an invalid configuration.
I am trying to figure this out, but it doesn't look easy.
Cheers,
Flavio
