The Packed Rabbit starter move file

An open format any assistant, agent or robot can write, so a person doesn't have to type their move twice. It's a plain JSON file. The person opens it in the app (Menu, Two phones, one move, Choose a file). The app shows what's in it and asks before adding anything. It only adds; it never changes or deletes what's already there.

The format

{
  "packedrabbit": "move-1",
  "from": "Name of the assistant that made it",
  "boxes": [
    { "room": "KIT", "contents": "plates, mugs, the good bowls", "size": "Small", "fragile": true },
    { "room": "BED1", "destRoom": "BED2", "contents": "winter coats", "size": "Large" },
    { "room": "OPEN", "contents": "kettle, coffee, phone chargers", "size": "Medium", "essential": true }
  ],
  "furniture": [
    { "name": "Sofa", "room": "LIV", "w": 84, "d": 36, "h": 34 },
    { "name": "Queen bed frame", "room": "BED1" }
  ]
}

Fields

• packedrabbit: always "move-1". Files without it are ignored.
• from: who made the file. Shown to the person before they add it.
• boxes: up to 500.
• room (required): a room code. Unknown codes become MISC.
• destRoom: the room at the new place, if it's different.
• contents: what's inside, separated by commas. Each becomes an item the person can search for.
• size: Small, Medium, Large, Extra large, Dish pack, Wardrobe, Bin, Suitcase, Bag or Wrapped item. Anything else becomes Medium.
• fragile, essential: true or false.
• notes: free text.
• furniture: up to 200.
• name (required).
• room: a room code.
• w, d, h: width, depth and height in inches. The app checks these against every doorway.
• category, notes: free text.

The app gives each box its next number in that room (KIT-07, KIT-08), so the person writes that number on the box.
