feat: active group field/occupation status

[castdrian]

firstly lovely project, very thankful for the fact that it is typed as well, ideally it would be nice to have two additional fields on the idol spec:

activeGroup
the idols current group if it exists

occupation:
perhaps an enum that differentiates between SOLOIST and GROUP

Hi!

activeGroup
the idols current group if it exists

Idol might be in two different groups, e.g. Nana from woo!ah! and EL7Z U+P (the second is temporary though). Also subunits count as groups too and in many groups disband_date isn't properly set so it still counts as current idol's group.

You can filter out all groups with current=false, e.g. . as $r | .idols[] | select(.name=="Sakura") as $i | $r.groups[] | select(.members[] | select(.idol_id==$i.id and .current)) | {idol: $i, group: .} click

Maybe we should add temporary: boolean; field for the groups and fix the disband dates so that you can always filter out all non-primary groups of the idol (you can also check if it's not subunit by parent_id==null)? What do you think?

occupation:
differentiates between SOLOIST and GROUP

Oh yeah, I was thinking about how to differentiate non-active idols and idols performing as soloists. Maybe we can have fake group with name something like SOLO and add all soloists there?

Not sure what to do with e.g. Twice or Blackpink idols because a lot of them have released albums as a solo artists but can we actually count them as soloists?

[castdrian]

I think a placeholder group that says solo is a great idea, personally I would say idols who are still part of a group aren't soloists even if they have released solo music, but since it's your project it's up to you really

I agree.
