Mapping handler dependencies

[SWEdeAndy]

Is there a way to exclude the entire substack?

There is now!

1.1.4 (12 Sep 2023)
- Enhancement: Individual substacks can now be excluded from mapping/analysis by clicking the substack name in the stacks list. Excluded stacks/substacks are italic in the list.
(If a mainstack is excluded, its substacks are automatically excluded, like before.)

There's just no stopping you, is there?

Yeah. I'm running out of things on my wishlist.

Just for fun a while back I started looking into a gource-style display of handler dependencies, and while it was a fun project I'm not sure it gave any more insight into the code complexity than a mermaid-based display.

New version of WIS_ScriptDependencies available:

v1.1.5 (30 Nov 2023)
- Enhancement: Flowcharts can now be produced and exported as PNG or SVG. On Windows and Linux the flowchart is now always displayed in-stack, as a PNG. On all platforms the flowchart can be exported as PNG, SVG and HTML.
- Enhancement: Node text size can now be set
- Adjustment: Handler type naming convention changed in LC10 (apparently), making ”M” mean ”on” and ”C” mean ”command” (and changing ”PM” into ”CM” for ”private command”). This is now correctly handled when using WIS_ScriptDependencies in either LC9 or LC10.
- Fixed bug: Arrow colouring failed for private commands/functions
- Fixed bug: The (rarely used) constructions ”before *command name*” and ”after *command name*” now get included in analysis and flowchart (displayed as ”command *command name*”).
- Other minor fixes

"PM -> CM"?

Should that read PM -> PC ?

Indeed it should, my bad! Thanks!
In the script I got it right, fortunately!

This is from the Mailing List:

3. Hmm, I don’t usually use any gray texts. All texts are black, except for a few big buttons that have ”midnight blue” text, which is also the colour of most of the icons. Is something happening to the UI on Linux? It would be interesting to see a screenshot of how it looks for you.

3. The teal backgrounds and gray text throughout the UI blends together and disappears when I look at it.

My apologies, when I noted I was having trouble seeing the "gray text", I hadn't yet realized that Dark Mode was clashing with your color scheme. I set the foreground color to Black and I was able to read things again.

Thanks for the help. I've been refactoring some pretty long scripts with the profiler, so I'm really looking forward to seeing what kinds of optimizations I can achieve with this in my workflow. Great work!

Latest WIS_ScriptDependencies update:

v1.1.6 (12 Dec 2023)
- Enhancement: If the Kroki service is down, so no png/svg can be produced, a dialog is presented giving the choice to render the flowchart as html instead
- Enhancement: Improved design of the help section and the flowchart settings pane
- Enhancement: Mermaid version can now be modified (affects html rendering only). This is not something you’d normally need to do, but it has turned out that the latest versions of Mermaid implement some kind of hard limit on the number of edges, preventing large flowcharts from rendering. So for now, Mermaid v10.5.1 is default (no edge limit), but can be changed to a later version by advanced users.
- Fixed bug: Some actions in the mainstack triggered flowchart updates even if the flowchart substack was closed
- Other minor fixes (Among them explicit setting of fore/background color for text fields, to prevent dark mode surprises. One day I might even implement a dark mode theme... )

Thank you!

A minor WIS_ScriptDependencies update:

v1.1.7 (15 Jan 2024)
- Fixed bug: In LC10, ”on” handlers did not get correct arrow colouring when highlighting the node
- Enhancement/fix: Private functions now have the correct node colour, and a different node shape, to distinguish them from private commands

I'm currently using the code flow chart to help me with a 7 stacks project and I DO like it!
Which made me think of a feature (in case you need an idea.
add a check box to show/hide private handlers in the flowchart
Thanks for the great features!

Thanks for the feedback! I’m happy you find the tool useful!
It’s a good idea to add that feature. I’ll look into it soon.

I was anyway planning to push an update, as the Windows browser framework has been upgraded in the latest LC versions, so that Mermaid code can now run in the browser widget also on Windows.

A new WIS_ScriptDependencies update:

1.2.0 (22 Nov 2024)
Finally, in the most recent versions of LiveCode, the browser widget on Windows is upgraded and can run Mermaid code! Hence the version number jump-up!
- Enhancement: Flowcharts can now be displayed in the browser widget also on Windows, when using LC versions 9.6.13 (rc and stable), 10.0.0 (rc or stable) and all 10.0.1+ versions as well as LC Create native in classic mode.
- Enhancement: Added a settings pane for which handler types to include/exclude. The setting is global, not per project. Default is to include all handler types.
- Enhancement: Implemented code formatting/colouring in the code display field
- Fixed bug: Some flowchart nodes (handler names) were not correctly styled

Special hint for Fjord:
Here you can opt to exclude private commands/functions as well as any other combination of handler types:

After changing this setting, you need to rerun the mapping and analysis (the graphing code is too complex to only do the filtering there, I discovered).

Stellar work Andreas!
