Hide subforms

[sanyud24]

Fixes : odk-x/tool-suite-X#154
manually hide subforms w.r.t positions in a listview.

For now only Education_form and household_member of household have been removed .

Can one of the admins verify this patch? Also need an authorization to run tests.

I'll be experimenting more on this issue with json files , after my university endsem exams. If this method seems right ,I will add label to show hidden forms . I tried hiding using table_id but table_id can only be accessed after clicking on the list , so to remove subforms using tableid or form_id etc. user have to click on the forms one by one . So most easiest way was to store the position manually and remove em all together .

@sanyud24 you should use the form Id as there can be multiple forms for a single table.

@sanyud24 a "manual" solution to hiding forms cannot be written it java code. It needs to be configurable by a deployment architect. As suggested in the issue, maybe have a field on the settings page that then gets checked when creating the list of forms.

This issue was not an easy win XD. I'll try it for 2 more days , if I'll be unable to figure it out then I'll have to drop this issue , Thanks a lot for the review .

I'll try using formId as you said for that I'll make a HashMap containing formid's and a boolean value to hide and show subform. I'll try approaching this issue like this .

@sanyud24 I agree this is not an easy win, it got mislabeled. Apologies. The mentors are aware that some contributions are more difficult than others.

Survey is using Content Provider from ODK-X Services to get it's list of forms. The actually query for the forms list is done in Services. To complete this you would need to modify the query.
https://github.com/odk-x/services/blob/master/services_app/src/main/java/org/opendatakit/services/forms/provider/FormsProvider.java

A "Content Provider" is an Android construct.

Again I agree this is not a simple issue.
