Roberto,
Yes, it's possible. First, turn off Exhibit's auto-creation by appending
?autoCreate=false after exhibit-api.js. Then do something similar to the
code here
http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/scripts/create.js
to create the exhibit yourself. But right after the call
configureFromDOM(), you can inspect the database with
var arrayOfPropertyIDs = database.getAllProperties();
(implemented in this file
http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/scripts/data/database.js )
And then you can generate facets as follows
var aDiv = document.createElement("div");
document.body.appendChild(aDiv);
var facet = Exhibit.ListFacet.create({ "expression": ".foo" }, aDiv,
exhibit.getUIContext());
exhibit.setComponent("facet-foo", facet);
The list facet is implemented here
http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/scripts/ui/facets/list-facet.js
