As a staff manager
I want my basic data to come from a configuration LDAP service
to make use of this existing database and to avoid managing facts in two places.

Requirements

• at least email address, first- and last name should be used
• LDAP configuration should stored in a properties file at /etc/staff/application.properties to make it manageable via provisioning

Remarks

Spring LDAP sounds like a good choice for the implementation.

As a developer who wants to extend or consume the API of Staff
I want its API to be HATEOAS compliant
to allow service discovery.

Remarks

Building REST services with Spring seems to be an interesting article about this.

Try different libs from http://d3js.org/ for the visualization of an organisation chart.

I want to see a workplace location on a colleague's profile
to be able to find that colleague within the office.

As a staff manager
I want staff members to be able to add a workspace location to their profiles
in order to have a self organizing workplace location database.

Requirements

• the location should be given as a simple string
• RESTful POST and PUT interfaces to add or update a workspace location is sufficient

As a staff member
I want to be able to see my own profile page
to know what information about me is stored in Staff.

Requirements

• RESTful GET interface with JSON data is sufficient

As a staff member

As a staff manager
I want be able to see all skills of all staff members
to be able to analyse my staff's skill distribution.

Requirements

As a staff member
I want to be able to find out which other member has a certain skill
to know who might be of help for my current task.

Requirements

• this should be a query over all members
• the requested skill should be provided as a simple string
• GET interface with query parameter returning a list of profiles is sufficient

As a staff manager
I want members to be able to add skills to their profile data to their own profiles
to have a self organizing and therefore scaling skill database.

Requirements

• skills should be a simple list of keywords to enable members to make relevant skills that I have not thought of
• RESTful POST and DELETE interface + display of skills in the existing profile (see #1) is sufficient
