Unhelpful Graphite Tip #2 - Graph Bookmarklet

2012-04-10 18:58:26 by jdixon

I wish I could say I've been using this little gem for years. Alas, I just learned about it last night courtesy of R. Tyler Croy (@agentdero). This has already been a godsend, in less than one full day of use.

Save the following snippet as a bookmark. I have it right next to the Graphite link in my bookmark bar.

javascript:url=prompt("Enter Url");
if (url){content.Composer.loadMyGraph("temp", url);};

The next time someone sends you the link to a graph, load up your Graphite composer and then hit that bookmarklet. Paste in the link and click Ok.

Voila, the link is now visible within your composer window. Enjoy!

Awesome! I love that I can pull a "static" graph url into the composer for further tweaking.

Pretty fucking amazing except there is some weird bug where graphite is not decoding the first encoded character in the url

groupByNode(a.b.c.%5B0-9%5D%2C3%2C%22sumSeries%22)

results in

groupByNode(a.b.c.%5B0-9],3,"sumSeries")

Will solve the urldecoding issues :)
