Keys and links of the viewer

The viewer keeps its view in the fragment of the address, so that a link reproduces it, and most of what the mouse does has a key. The sections of the viewer say what each view holds.

The address of a view

A fragment looks like #/?sel=api.services.billing.config&tab=source&collapse=network,edge&theme=dark. Values are URL-encoded, and a list is comma separated. The page rewrites the fragment as you use it, so the address in the bar is always a link to what you see. The action Copy a link to this view of the palette copies it.

A view of the Inventory with a resource selected is the usual link to share: #/?sel=api.services.billing.config&tab=history. A view of another section needs view: #/?view=plans&plq=by:ben, #/?view=policies&pol=approve_deletes, #/?view=traces&trace=ID&span=ID.

The command palette

The palette opens with /, Ctrl-K or Cmd-K, or with the search button in the bar. It searches in groups, and the resources come first: groups, resources and outputs. After them come the stored plans (by id, author or status), the transactions and the runs that pravo recorded (by command line, reason, actor or transaction id), the objects that discoveries found (by id, name, status or discovery), and the actions of the page. A plan opens in the Plans section, a run or a transaction in the Traces section with that run open, and an object in the Discovery section with the filter on it.

An action runs at once and shows its shortcut, so that the key is learned: go to a section, switch between the graph and the list, fit the graph, zoom, collapse or expand the groups, switch the theme, open the sheet of shortcuts, open the policy studio, clear the selection or the filter, and copy a command, the address of the selection or a link to the view. A leading > lists the actions alone, in groups. With no text the palette offers the sections first, then the groups and the resources that the plan changes. An action appears only where it applies: the graph actions are not offered in the Plans section.

In the palette, the arrows and Page Up and Page Down move, Enter goes to the result or runs the action, and Esc closes it. Each search that moves the picture of the resources adds an entry to the history of the browser, which keeps the open groups, the selection and the camera of the picture it left: the button Back to where you were, Esc and the browser's Back return to it.

Keyboard

The sheet of shortcuts in the viewer opens with ?. Keys other than Ctrl-K and Esc do nothing while a text field has the focus.

In the graph

In the list

With the focus in the list:

In the list of stored plans

A narrow window

The page fits a phone or a narrow pane. The sections stay in the bar, the graph fills the top of the window, and the inspector becomes a panel under the graph when something is selected. The State section stacks the role and the badge of a member under the name.
