Product Documentation: Initiative, Challenge, Bounty, and BountyClaim Models

Overview

This page outlines the status values and relationships between the Initiative, Challenge, Bounty, and BountyClaim models within OpenUnited.

      • Contributed: The contributor has completed work and submitted it for review.
      • Completed: The claim has been successfully completed and accepted.

Relationships Between Models

  • Initiative:

    • Contains multiple Challenges.
    • Linked to a specific Product.

  • Challenge:

    • Can be associated with one Initiative.
    • Contains multiple Bounties.

  • Bounty:

    • Must be associated with one Challenge.
    • Can have multiple BountyClaims.

  • BountyClaim:

    • Must be associated with one Bounty.
    • Must be associated with one Person.
    • A Person may only have one BountyClaim per per Bounty. Of course one Person may have many BountyClaims across different Bounty objects.
    • Although one Bounty may have many BountyClaims (e.g. many requests for claims, failed or cancelled claims), only one BountyClaims per Bounty may be in a Granted status at any moment in time.

Summary

The simple but powerful structure of Initiatives, Challenges, Bounties, and BountyClaims allows for a comprehensive and organized approach to connecting products and talent in the unique marketplace model of OpenUnited. Each model progresses through specific statuses, enabling clear tracking and management of flows and tasks at different levels.
