Add a `price` field

[MrSchnitzelon]

Add a price field so you can track how much you paid for a specific spool/bottle
Would keep be helpful so you don't have to look up a price for a spool of special filament you bought X years ago

Hello, let me think about it.

I can possibly imagine adding it to the auxiliary section - I'd like to avoid adding it to the main, static section though. That field is intended for standard data of the filament manufacturers, and price is not that kind of data, because it depends on when and where you bought the material, it is not static.

You'd probably need at least three fields rights? The amount, what currency it was bought in, and when it was purchased.

• currency_amount
• currency_denomination
• purchased_at

[CZDanol]

Possibly, or we could standardize the amount to always be in Saint Helena Pounds :)

Thank you for considering this proposition.

Being able to change the price would be very preferable since a manufacturer realistically only could set their msrp and depending on the manufacturer that might be not very representative.

Personally I think even if there isn’t a currency mentioned my mind would always default to my local currency since even if I were to import material that I paid for in Saint Helena Pounds I would just convert it to Euro for ease of use.

On the other hand if the manufacturer wants to set a price value a value for currency definitely would be needed.

Date of purchase for me would be more of a nice to have but i probably wouldn’t bother filling it out 😅

Have a look at #132 . What do you think?

[MrSchnitzelon]

Sounds/Looks good I think, please do note though that I am speaking mostly as an Enduser since I am not qualified/have no qualification on the code side of things.

Added to the standard.
