Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Latest WIS_ScriptDependencies update: 1.1.6 (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 Download here: https://github.com/wheninspace/WIS_ScriptDependencies/releases/latest ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Thanks for the feedback, Derek! 1. I get an Error 400 when trying for a flowchart of a monster stack with 180+ handlers with many interdependencies. This seems to be due to exceeding the upper limit of what the Mermaid/Kroki services can handle in therms of ”edges”. The graph is simply too complex. Try excluding substacks, or excluding handlers by adding them to the handler exclusion filter field, to reduce ”uninteresting” complexity. (I tend to exclude mouse*, and commands/functions that are called many times put only do simple things like adding quotes, or utf conversion or something.) The "Group per handler host” feature adds complexity to the graph, so using that could also tip it over the error threshold. Unfortunately, the error message passed back from Mermaid/Kroki is not very enlightening. 2. I realise that I have not put in any error catching for the case where the user has not yet chosen a save file destination. Try opening the flowchart settings pane (which should already set a default save path if empty) and click the folder icon to make an active choice. If it still doesn’t work for you then it might be a Linux issue, which unfortunately I’m unable to test. 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?

Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Hi all, Finally I can answer Yes to the question on exporting script flowcharts! 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 Download link: https://github.com/wheninspace/WIS_ScriptDepedencies/releases/latest /Andreas > 18 sep. 2023 kl. 03:38 skrev Geoff Canyon via use-livecode > : > > Is there a way to export the entire flowchart, instead of just the portion > currently displayed? ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Hi Andreas, quick note - I've not read the full thread - but I have a code graph browser that I have been using for a number of years - it is a big piece of work - so not easy to distribute - and many of the parts should probably be done better / differently. I would Love to make use / integrate that work - rather than see it all stay on my laptop - but either way I'd like to get involved. This is what I have / the current approach: - Script Indexing project - libraries to recursively crawl an object or a stacks script to find handlers, and calls from each type of handler - Experimental caching and database based versions to speed up graph analysis and reporting (currently dropped) - Integration with IDE / Script Editor (using behaviors attached to "Apply" button etc - Projects arranged more or less as Levure projects - SVG graph export with interactive browsing of handlers (using graphviz) - Native graph export creating native Livecode layouts of shapes from Graphviz or Mermai d(experimental) - Filtering, and processing of graphs (experimental) What I'd like to do is: 1. Finish integration with Levure 2. Focus on Mermaid implementation 3. Test and improve the code parsing and graph creation to ensure it works properly with different coding styles Happy to demo / jump on a Zoom call and share ideas / discuss.

Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Getting a full export is a tricky business, and I’m looking at various solutions. The easiest workaround is to launch the flowchart in a web browser and print to PDF from there. On Windows/Linux the flowchart is shown that way anyway, and on Mac you load it in a web browser by shift-clicking the Create flowchart button. The obvious downside of printing to pdf is that you get page breaks that split up the flowchart. Another workaround is to paste the Mermaid code into an online editor like https://mermaid.live and then export to PNG from there. What looks more promising for actually solving it in-stack though, is using the command-line interface (CLI) for Mermaid to generate an svg/png/pdf file: https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid-cli I’ll experiment with that and see what I can come up with. :) > As an aside, I don't know whether to be proud or horrified at the map > Navigator produces… Yeah, I know the feeling… :D /Andreas > 18 sep. 2023 kl. 03:38 skrev Geoff Canyon via use-livecode > : > > Is there a way to export the entire flowchart, instead of just the portion > currently displayed? > > As an aside, I don't know whether to be proud or horrified at the map > Navigator produces... > > On Sat, Sep 16, 2023 at 8:04 PM Geoff Canyon wrote: > >> Ah, okay, that explains it.

Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Ah, okay, that explains it. In Navigator, *everything* is a script-only stack behavior. In a few of the substacks there are scripts for a few template objects or where script-only-stack behaviors were inconvenient (I don't remember why, honestly). That has it working, and the resulting diagram is nice. Navigator does a similar survey (without the visualization, that's a neat trick). Navigator reports: 302986 characters in 8092 lines in 112 scripts in 885 objects. ScriptDependencies reports: 341 unique handler names - 407 commands, 124 functions, 1 setProps regards, Geoff On Sat, Sep 16, 2023 at 6:24 PM Andreas Bergendal via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > As long as you include all the script-only stacks in the analysis, they > will be handled. > The tool will not look for behaviors and auto-include them.

Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
As long as you include all the script-only stacks in the analysis, they will be handled. The tool will not look for behaviors and auto-include them. Every stack that has relevant code must be included manually in the project pane. If you have many SoSs, you can quickly add them all by adding the whole folder they are in.

My intention with ScriptDependencies is to provide a code analysis and live documentation tool (of some kind) for LiveCode projects. I need it myself for some big LC projects, and thought it might be useful also for other LC devs. The tool has been thoroughly tested by LC veterans like bn (Bernd), jacque (Jacqueline) and mwieder (Mike), who have all provided invaluable feedback and improvement suggestions, bringing the tool up to quite a professional level. I hope you’ll find use for it - or at least enjoy seeing your scripts presented as a bouquet of flowers, a piece of art! :) Any feedback is very welcome! /Andreas ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Does it not handle script-only stack behaviors? I get a blank display for Navigator (which has no code other than SoS behaviors). gc On Fri, Sep 15, 2023 at 10:32 AM Andreas Bergendal via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Hi all! > > Those frequenting the forums may have seen this already, but I thought I'd > share it here too now: > > If you want to see a graphic map of the inter-relations of all the > handlers in the scripts of your LiveCode projects, my tool > ScriptDependencies now features an extremely cool flowchart output (using > the Mermaid javascript lib). > > Here’s an example of how a script flowchart can look: > https://wheninspace.com/browseranimation/WIS_ScriptDependencies_example.png > > A few easy steps to test it on your own scripts: > > 1) Download ScriptDependencies here: > https://github.com/wheninspace/WIS_ScriptDepedencies/releases/latest > > 2) Open the stack, click the top left cog wheel and add at least one stack > (that has at least some handlers calling other handlers) to a project. > 3) Close the project pane and click "Start mapping and analysis”. > 4) Click ”Create flowchart”.

Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Just want to add that Andreas has been super-responsive to suggestions re adding features and improving things and this tool has gone from being moderately useful to something I can't do without. And is a textbook example in how to incorporate a javascript library into LiveCode. -- Mark Wieder ahsoftw...@gmail.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Your scripts as a flowchart
Very cool. I’ll give it a try. But whereas most people’s code will look like a bowl of spaghetti, mine will probably look like Whoppi Goldberg’s hair.
